Ive heard a rumor that the 3rd Race is "The Forgotten" (Tho it isn't entirely true ) Best waiting till December! Very Happy


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

I fear that EA will screw this up, just like they screwed up Generals. It seems that neither EA or Westwood can/could balance three sides properly(Generals, Yuri's Revenge(In Dune, all sides were pretty much equal)).

I am getting bored of RTS games. You almost allways have to do same things in almost same order over and over.

I also think it is pretty hard to make decent RTS game these days.
Too much micromanagement= A game will be only for Hardcore gamers, and casual gamers will not stand a chance
Too little micromanagement= A game will be just another "build as many tanks as you can, and attack(and do this pretty much every time)"

I liked Renegade because THIS is how I allways wanted to play those boring RTS games.

Maybe I don't really like RTS games much any more because I am just too slow and prefer to be part of a team, or maybe it is because in most RTS games, your units are pretty stupid unless you directly control them.

But if the AI of the units in RTS games were to improve significantly(not going to happen with C&C3, that would be too much work for EA), then they would become 1000 times more fun.

Amen

I'm afraid that they'll make the gameplay too much like Generals. I just hope the developers manage to strike a balance between Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2--that would be nirvana. Thumbs Up Perhaps I'm thinking the atmosphere of TS and the gameplay of RA2 (not YR). In Love

I haven't played RTSs competitively since YR. I miss it... =\

Playing as the mutants would rule, I hope the "3rd race" isn't CABAL, that would be ultra-lame.

It's too bad how lame the gameplay in Age of Empires III turned out. Huh

Awesome. I am a Renegade devotee, as you know, so I haven't been following C&C3 much. I'm glad the feedback has been mostly positive thus far. Is there anything you've been wanting to know about the game?

(Sorry, this will all make sense in a couple weeks)



When is the Demo due out...and the requirements(already mentioned i know)

I guessed that this was either being watched or fed back to EA. I also guess this message -may- be removed / edited.

Anyways, I should be fine for sys requirements, I want to know gameplay. Gameplay is what will make me buy it.

Well, I don't know if they're watching, this was for me. I just can't tell you why just yet. It will all make sense in less than 2 weeks. Razz

I simply... cant wait.

I think the best part will be the FMVs, they have a lot of good actors.

Hey, I get it for free, so I'm happy. Big Ups

The graphics look nice so far, although I'm sorta worried that it will go along like this:

EA: "LQQK!!! NEW C&C!!!!!"
Fan: "WOW!!! IT LOOKS COOL!!! I JUST SPENT $50 BECAUSE THE GRAPHICS LOOK NICE!!!!"

later....

Fan: "OMG THIS SUCKS!!! IT'S TOO BUGGY!!! GAMEPLAY SUCKS!!!"
EA: "HA HA HA HA WE HAVE YOUR MONEY AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO CHANGE ANYTHING!!!"


w00t?

What I want to know is not about the game per se, it's more about EA. Do the employees enjoy making this game? Is the atmosphere as fun-loving as Westwood seemed to have been back in the day? Or is this just another project for them? I think the answers to these questions will play a major part in my attitude toward the game.

As for the game, I plan on buying it, unless a demo is released and I absolutely abhor it.

Mammoth tanks are back for one Big Grin .

Also the return of ingame videos and actors

Kane is back.

A sequel to my favourite RTS game.

The 3rd team better be the scrin.....
A possible conclusion to the story?

I hope he is, but I fear he is not. It looks nice from what I have seen until now, but you can't really see the gameplay though... All I can do now is hope it will be good, so that's what I do. Smile

yeah, Age 3 graphics + age 2 gameplay = <3

Well, in that case, it's because EA are going to extend an offer to the Ren community to be Beta testers!!! (lol)
