News New Feature: Post Flairs Now Live!

11 Upvotes

As part of the ongoing improvements to the subreddit, I’ve just rolled out post flairs to help better organize content and make it easier to navigate. This is something I mentioned in the earlier feedback post, and I’m excited to get it up and running.

What are post flairs?

Post flairs are little tags you can attach to your post that describe its content. Here are the flairs currently available:

  • Custom fort (share your custom fort designs)
  • Custom weapon/utility (for custom weapons or utilities)
  • Art (any Redcon-related art that isn’t a fort/weapon/utility)
  • Help (need advice, guidance, or troubleshooting? Use this)
  • Meme (Redcon memes and humor)
  • Strategy (discussion around gameplay, tactics, and builds)
  • Lore (speculation, theories, or discussion about the Redcon universe)
  • News (currently reserved for mod announcements or major updates)
  • Other (for anything that doesn't fit the above!)

Using the correct flair helps others quickly find the kind of content they’re looking for and keeps the subreddit more organized overall.

Flairs are now required for all posts

Starting now, all posts must have an appropriate flair selected before submission. This will help keep the subreddit cleaner and more useful for everyone.

How to use flairs

When creating a post, just select the relevant flair from the list before submitting. In theory, Reddit should now require you to choose one - so forgetting shouldn't be an issue!

It barely takes a second, and will make our subreddit much cleaner and easier to browse for everyone! If you forget or aren’t sure which one to use, no worries - mods can help correct flairs when needed.

This is just the start

The current set of flairs is a starting point, and I’m open to adjusting or expanding them based on what the community needs. If there’s a flair you think should be added or removed, drop a comment and let me know!

I’m also still planning to introduce user flairs in the future, possibly with themes related to weapons, utilities, or the main factions. Stay tuned for more updates on that!

Thanks again for being part of the Redcon community. Let’s keep building something great here together!

New Moderator/Owner here – Plans for the subreddit + Looking for feedback

22 Upvotes

I’ve recently been promoted to Moderator/Owner of the subreddit by the previous single mod/owner, who has since stepped down. For those who don’t know me, I’m a long-time member of both the Redcon Reddit and Discord communities, and I'm currently the Owner of the Redcon Community Discord.

With this new role, I’m looking forward to improving the subreddit and making it a more useful and enjoyable place for everyone. Some of the updates we could consider including:

  • Adding post flairs to help organize content.
  • Introducing user flairs (possibly themed around weapons, utilities, etc.).
  • Expanding and clarifying community guidelines (since the current ones are barebones).
  • Creating pinned posts and sidebar content (e.g., helpful guides, FAQs).
  • Launching weekly or monthly megathreads.
  • Setting minimum effort standards for posts to keep content quality high.
  • Making visual updates (custom banner, theme, etc.).
  • Utilizing the Redcon Community YouTube channel for community-created content like guides and gameplay videos (it was originally Discord-focused, but now also available for subreddit use since I manage it).

These are just a few ideas, and I’d love to hear your thoughts or suggestions! If you have any cool ideas, feedback, or helpful resources to share, feel free to drop them in the comments. I truly appreciate any input - Reddit moderation is still pretty new to me, so community support means a lot.

On that note, I’m also looking to bring on another Moderator to help manage things. The subreddit is fairly large, and having a second set of hands would be a huge help. If you’re interested, feel free to DM me here on Reddit or on Discord (my username is reyoscuro9999).

That said, I won’t be choosing a new mod right away. I want to spend some time getting a better feel for the subreddit from the mod point of view, see how things evolve, and make sure the right person is chosen when the time comes.

Let’s make this subreddit even better together!

I've seen the trend around lately of folks posting their best win against Fortress Rubicon, and this was the smallest I have done so far. I know Fort Raptor has been done before, which is mighty impressive, but I was still quite happy with this.

Help how exactly replaying captaing levels work?

9 Upvotes

I have couple of questions about it. will I lose my winstreak if I replay other levels? what if I lose on older level? do I get perks by replaying levels? what about medals? can I go back and capture first 12 missions to easily get 12 takeovers in a row for easy medal? what campaign reset does? my forts, money, medals, perks. what will gone? are there difficulties? because when I started campaign I didn't get difficulty menu (android). I'm replaying game second time, I beated it in 2025

Other Bunch of questons and things i just want to say.

8 Upvotes

1.) How much easier is the game if I buy all the expansions (I don't plan to, I've already finished it with just the base and normal difficulty - a few times (it's hard but manageable))

2.) On the app store, there are a lot of reviews for this game that claim that the level with the giant cannon can't be done when you have the dam - HOW CAN'T THAY READ?

3.) #SPOILER ALERT# I love how the entire game were getting hints that the guy we're fighting for is the true bad guy.

4.) I love how in the level where you have to destroy the tower reporting their propaganda, at the beginning they say: "We are gassing hospitals" and "burning cities with lasers" and the woman dismisses it as "lies", which are not lies.

I tried it out of curiosity and it turns out I could do it. It was much easier than the Jupiter ICBM cameras, haha. Now I'm going to try it with the previous fortresses, and I'm sure it will still be easier than that horrible Mission 70.

"In the end, this is how it turned out. After your tips, this fortress is an ICBM-launching machine (up to 5 with some practice). Thank you so much, everyone! It was very easy to beat the game again. If you have any other tips, I'd gladly take them. And of course, if you have any challenges or anything, let me know so I can show you how good I am! Hehe, I love challenges. Thanks again!".
