I made some changes to the USA faction [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Command_%26_Conquer:_Generals/USA&diff=prev&oldid=722065 (here)], and will soon-ish do likewise for the other two factions.  Yes, there is a patch doc file.  One complication is the fact that this is a 2003 game, with the final supported patch being December, 2005.  Most of the problems fixed ("issues addressed") relate to multiplayer support.  I haven't checked; presumably multiplay is defunct, at least on EA servers.  The patch documentation does list various balance tweaks as well.  Either the list is incomplete, or some of the discrepancies that I discovered here are simple errors.  In either case, I'll make a note of them as I find them, and make corrections eventually.  I guess I'll have to continue playing, strictly for research purposes only, of course. &nbsp;;&nbsp;)&nbsp; If you're ''really'' interested in why I haven't registered, then [[User talk:71.20.250.51|my talk page]] is a better place for that discussion.  &nbsp;—''E:'' ([[User talk:71.20.250.51|talk]])  • [[Special:Contributions/71.20.250.51|71.20.250.51]] 03:31, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

:But that's precisely the problem.  Unless you somehow have a statically assigned IP, [[User talk:71.20.250.51]] isn't guaranteed to be your talk page.  Then if someone else happens to get assigned that IP, there's going to be a whole discussion that does not pertain to that person.  That's the whole reason why we ask people to register; so that you get a uniquely assigned talk page where we people can communicate directly with you.  There are other benefits of course, but that's one of the nicest.  Personally, I just want to know so that we can identify things that we can do to better persuade people to register.  Perhaps there's some misconception that we can clarify.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 04:16, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
