you need to complete the Nod and GDI campaigns first.



when i get hold of the xml files, i will mod them to increase the level of outward zoom :)

Ahhhhhhh - Cool. So once you complete NOD and GDI you can play as the Scrin - Awesome.....WIll look forward to that :o)

I should get the game tommorow.

But I wont be playing it much until they release the patch which swaps the right click UI back to the usual C&C left click interface.

They should have just left it like EVERY other C&C game.


I was hoping they would have included this in the full game after the outcry from the demo. It feels so unnatural and you're never sure what button to press half the time!

XML you say? I remember the days of editing the Red Alert and TibSun ini files to create uber units and unlock unfinished content. I remember having the Mammoth mark 1 in Tib Sun shooting obliesk of light bolts. Good times :D

Im glad you agree, I thought it was just me :)

The game arrived this morning, but I havent got time to install and see if it is in the options but I will install it after work tonight :D
 
I doubt we're alone!
There's little point in using 2 buttons when 1 will do. Keep it simple! I found it very annoying in the demo when I'd select my units, move across the map, place the cursor over the enemy unit, press click, only to find that I've now lost the selection of my units! Very small detail, but very annoying.

I also doubt that increasing the zoom out will be as easy as 'editing an xml file'. If possible at all. Unfortunately :( Unless this was possible in "generals"?
 
Yeah mine just came as well. Got a free C&C t-shirt as well!!

Game is freaking awesome. ;) ;)

If you loved the others then this is more of the same but the gfx are the best ever. Runs like a dream @ 1920x1200 for me with full details and AA+AF.

Just goes to show that when they want to devs can code recent games to run smooth (sadly many do not bother which is why I bought both a 360 & PS3 recently as no-way am I giving that kind of money for an 8800GTX which cannot even deal with most of the recent titles due to poor coding & driver issues).

Pre-ordered mine on the 20th of Feb, and only now are they processing my payment! Was hoping to have it today/tomorrow, as off for a week with the mrs from Sat!! Arghhhhhhh, i'll have it a week before I can play it.
I feel your pain my friend, I'm not going to be able to play mine until next weekend :(
 
The right clicking thing is the same in supp comm, i agree its frustrating and you do get used to it but sometimes drift back and forget and press the left button. Dont see the need for it atall.
 
ive done about 4 missions as GDI so far so good it reminds me of the first tiberuim game but just with prettier graphics :) i cant wait to play this again but now im off to work :(
 
anyone else had problems with the install freezing right at the end? mine just stops and no matter which optical drive i try they just go in a cycle of spinning up and stopping, no visible damage on the disc
 
Mine was despatched today which means I won't get it till Monday/Tuesday, so went and bought a copy in town today :cool: Some places were selling it, others werent. Going to sell my other copy when it arrives to brother or friend.
 
Typical but a relieft, after 30 minutes on the same stage I phone EA support and just as i got through it sprung into life :)
