I have not bought first decade yet, but from what I heard, it is probably not worth it.

Here are some opinions from people from EA Command & Conquer forums:
Quote:

older games don't work online or on lan? EA had ample of time to address this. Wow, just wow.

Quote:

CNC GOLD and RA 1 in first decade do not work online or LAN Play. Once XP Came out and everyone switched over it killed CNC GOLD they never made a patch or rewrote the protcols.

Quote:

It just seems like they don't want people playing the old games online they just want to buy and play the new ones...

Quote:

...That's exactly what they want. And that's exactly why I hate them. They don't care about the fans, they just care about the money.

Quote:

Just EA doing business. Exploiting an unaware society by making games with minimal upgrades while charging at a premium price to gain maximum profit.

Quote:

THIS IS NOT AN UPGRADE. THIS IS A DOWNGRADE. EA expect people to be buying 'UPDATED' versions of these games so that it runs 'FLAWLESSLY' on modern operating systems when the bulk of the two most popular games has been RIPPED OUT?!?

Quote:

IF THIS IS NOT ADDRESSED IN A PATCH, I will never buy another EA product again.


I know most of this is old news, but I felt like creating topic about it anyway.

P.S: NFS Most Wanted is the last game that I bought from EA games, and it will remain last. THE END

Yeah, I'm starting to have second thoughts of TFD too. I think I'll just stick to the original CD's wich my dad has.

All I need is Counterstrike to complete my collection... Now, if I didn't have those No-CD patches(shut up), I might get this just so I could play the single player crap without destroying my collection... I never played online Command & Conquer... If it's anything like Skirmish Mode or WarCraft III, I'd get brutally raped anyway!

Well, spread the word to anybody who is thinking about buying this.

We all know EA's prime target is original owners of the games. Let your friends know about this shit.

Some people might still need one or two games to complete their collection, but it'd be far cheaper to buy those separately and download the fan content that's freely available then to buy this hunk of junk.

Man, I was actually interested in getting this when I got a few bucks in my pocket, as I haven't played any other C&C game besides Renegade. Sad

When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself,
First as a dark demon,
As a demon it uses its power to reign death upon the land;
and then it dies.

However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns.
This time as a great hero...

You can still get it if you only have Renegade and wish to have the rest. Nobody is forcing you to not buy it.

Yeah, but the bad vibe this game is getting is worrying me a little bit.

I know but It's sounds like the experience of playing these games has been demolished by EA.

I doubt you can really obtain a copy of all of the other old C&C games unless you went on some massive hunt. It'd be worth it that way.

well so far, the major problems seem to have workarounds. the only real failing in my opinion is the lack of a patch to address lan play.

I found it a little odd they there's almost no mention of anything to do with Renegade anywhere.

On the bonus DVD where they talk about all of the games, each game gets about 5-10 minutes if not more. Renegade gets about 30s, it shows a few clips from an older version(old models, etc), and that's it.

In the manual each game has 6 or more pages detailing the controls and each unit/structure. Renegade gets 2 pages(both sides of one page really) telling you only the controls, then it moves onto the next game.

I'm not terribly disappointed by this or anything, it just seemed really weird to me...

They think Renegade was a failure, that's probably why.
