It's visually appealing but gameplay wise rather dull. Nothing out of the ordinary. Nothing new at all.

If you're satisfied with another standard RTS title I guess you won't be disappointed. Otherwise steer clear out of this one.

I have to agree. The graphics are pretty cool, but gameplay is a bit slow paced. I dont see much of a difference from RA2. If you have to have it, just wait a bit, I m sure the price will come down soon.

I agree, in fact I think its a step backwards.

They need to make a good sequal to Tiberian Sun (Command and Conquer 3!!!) with the Generals engine (which I heard used the Renegade engine...)

Very Happy

Yup. I would love to see a Tiberian Sun sequal it would be awesome......Im not sure how great it would be with the new engine.....but for some reason I liked the Tiberian Sun's graphics better then Generals (even though Generals has far better graphics) But Generals is an awesome game if you learn it and give it a chance. I like the in game cinematics because it shows what YOU can do in the game......not what an actor can do for Hollywood.

Like I said when I fist loaded up the medical level DM map, what is often missing from games is some sense of atmosphere. Whilst TS, RA and TD held people by them having dark and powerful storylines or a storyline which people could relate to past or present events Generals and RA2 went completely in the wrong direction.
Although lots of people like the Gameplay of RA2 and people still play because of that, Generals just doesn't cut it anywhere except visually. This is one reason I am worried about the next C&C. Those from the Pacific studio are really incapable of creating a truly great RTS game.

Generals isn't worth it IMO, no storyline, no movies, EAP had to bring out craploads of patches in the first week to fix major problems.

It's just another rushed game.

Personally I find it to be a very good game, and my only complaint is the dodgy pathfinding of the units at times.

That will happen in every 3-D rts game until they devote more time and CPU horsepower to AI, not graphics.

Generals is ok in single player but laggy as hell online...

Only buy this game if you are sure you like RTS games because coming from a shoot-em-up type game I found it quite dull to start with but thegraphics rule. Gameplay suffers a bit though...

EA seriously needs a new net code.
