Command and Conquer 3 Announced!

C&C 3 OMG :eek: :D *faints*

Like everyone else i'm hoping its going to be good, i enjoyed Generals but it was no RA2. Still i hope they show more of it at E3, roll on May. :D
 
Well, I've just reached the final level in tib sun (gdi) and i'm about to try and finish it . Bit difficult, very drunk, typing is bad, etc, but this is great news. I hope EA don't screw it up and give us another "renegade" ish type of thing :p :D
 
C&C3!!!! :eek:

Oh man, I so can't wait. Generals was good, but nothing like the classics - especially the original RA. I hope they go back to the standard tech-tree and building methods with the bar down the side. I hated in Generals having to go back to your base everytime you wanted to build something. But on the other hand, I rather liked having upgrades.

Seems strange people slating generals, we've had some great nights in head to head multiplayer, and zero hour even better....roll on c&c3...
It is a good game on its own but it isn't C&C. If you want to experience true C&C you have to play Tiberian Dawn, Tiberian Sun, Red Alert and Red Alert 2.
 
found some details on CNCden.com

-C&C 3 to ship sometime 2007.
-Mike Verdu will be the Executive Producer.

-Game will use an updated version of the Sage engine.
-Sides are GDI, Nod, and a yet un-named third side.
-Smarter AI (remains to be seen)
-Voice over IP support, Clan support, Observer and spectator modes.

Awesome news.

I love the C&C series. First thing I am going to do when I get my new PC is play through the ones I've got again. Especially loved RA2 and YR.

Smarter AI eh? I hope so, but every single game out promises this and rarely delivers... :rolleyes:
 
I can't understand how people who think Red Alert was the best in the series are in the minority. TS and RA2 in particluar just didn't hold a candle to it...

Generals? Pfft! Red Alert 2? Pfft!

Red Alert > * for both the single player campaign and the multiplayer. Nothing in the C&C universe has come close to it.
That goes without saying, but there is not a very large online following.
 
Im guessing this will be fully 3D like generals?

Am i the only one who misses the old 2D isometric views in strategy games like this?

I might like the 3D better if it was in the same style as RA2, generals looked a bit too clean and just didn't have the same kind of look you get in the C&C games, i only played it a few times and didn't like it much.
 
I dont think we could go back to exactly 2D now.. but isnt Supreme Commander taking a sort of quasi 3d/2d esque approach due to its scale?

Total annihilation did 3D right, none of this idiotic wobbly camera malarky. I really want pace and accuracy without EVER having to mess with my viewing field.

thats what i loved about the all the C&C games up to generals, i didnt have to mess with my camera angle. it was just....there! followed your mouse round the screen, no need to zoom in or out, was perfect.

generals is ok, but as has been said it jsut doesnt play or feel like a proper C&C game and pretty much just carries the name, nothing more.

one can only hope that tib war will be less like generals and more like the originals :)

come on EA, READ THESE COMMENTS AND LEARN FROM THEM!!!
