Blasphemy! Now go sit in the corner and think about what you said.
I've been a C&C gamer all the way up to Zero Hour, and loved all the games (Generals took a bit of getting used to, but the expansion made it so much better). However, I chose SupCom over C&C3. I was looking forward to playing C&C3, because it was more C&C, which is always good, right?
Downloaded the demo, but I just couldn't get into it, and I don't know why. I just put it down to the game being overshadowed by SupCom, and went and bought Forged Alliance instead.
Hopefully RA3 will draw me back into the series.

Well from the two screenshots released so far, it looks like a re-skinned C&C3, which isn't surprising as it's on the same engine. Jury is out on this one.
I didn't like RA2, far too camp. RA1 and TibSun to me were the perfect C&C games.

Yep lol brutal still pwns me 
.
In all previous C&C games I was good enough to tame the brutal ai's, C&C RA2, generals, zero hour, etc...
Now I can't do it anymore and in C&C3 I just get completly wiped away by the brutals.
C&C3 though imo by no means is bad, it's still very fun to play for a quick 25 minute game.
If I want a long game I play supcom if I want a quick game taking less than 30 mins I always fire up RA2 or C&C3.

You don't need to give em extra money they'll spam units @ you anyways XD.
Not just ''managable spamming''.
But loads and loads of units.
When you have brutal allies you can see how they perfectly build up their resource economy too.
They immediatly build a 2nd contruction crane followed by spamming refinery's everywhere they can, and in the process of doing that they build loads of factory's all making tanks.
I always die within 15 minutes, my base just gets compeltly overrun with enemy's.

That was what they did in Generals though. You could see in replays how they just got this starting lump of extra cash that meant they could build more things than you, quicker. That made for a fun challenge trying to stop them, but it was also very limited. Once you got your defences up to repel them, it was simply a matter of building up the money to wipe them out. They never used any kind of strategy to take out your defence, or even just attack via another route.
No but in C&C3 I feel they play honestly they just bring up their economy in no time.
In generals they stopped quite soon but in C&C3 they will keep sending units @ u till you're dead. I mean I see how they just do nothing else @ start but to build refinery's 2 at a time.

Just got the first decade off the back of this thread, as I don't think I ever played RA2 (or if I did, I forgot it).
I liked C&C3, but I hope RA3 is it's own game.

Hmmm re-reading the mail it does say trailer, and that page says to download gameshadow to watch the trailer, I dunno sounds like like rubbish but it ''may'' be a trailer inside and that what I posted just a responce vid to the trailer I dunno, anybody use gameshadow here?
Heres why I think there is some trailer :
EDIT nvm, it's all rubbish, no official trailers, stupid gameshadow and confusing heads.

I've only liked the Red Alert series in the C&C franchise as well with the exception of Generals and its expansion which has been ok. I could never get into the NOD v GDI series apart from renegade (which was superb) but that doesn't really count.
I hope they continue using funny units in RA3, the squids and dolphins not to mention the yuri units were hilarious!
