CandC3 looks amazing in my eyes is it the same makers of supreme commander ? there probably not but the graphics look on the same boundry as each other....

I Still play Command and conquer generals :confused: :p

dont knwo if im mad lol im sure theres others what play it these days :p


No its not the same, Supp Comm is published by THQ and C&C is an EA franchise, i would say the graphics are quite far from each other :) . I love supp comm and the graphics lend themselves to it well, it really isnt meant to look as real as c&c3 does. Supp comm's graphics are a lot plainer but they need to be for the scale of the battles. I must say the graphics on c&c3 at 1920x1200 with everything on max on a 24" screen look the nuts.

Supp comms graphics arent as important as the gameplay is just amazing imo, just loos at Total Annihilations graphics today, pretty poor but its still massively played because of its gameplay.
 
GDI ending spoilers (highlight to read):

The GDI ending was a bit meh. The Scrin took out Nod for me leaving me to destroy their Control Node. It was either two blasts of the Ion Cannon or one of the Liquid Tiberium Bomb. The former gave me a lame 'you win', and the latter 'you win but killied millions'. And where was Kane? He felt like a tacked on character who launched a couple of raids then was pwned by the Ion Cannon. Hopefully the Nod campaign is better.

is it me or are GDI's AA guns really pants? Keep getting owned by NOD'S Bombers
Yep, NOD AA gun is soooo much better.

Have a few pitbulls around AA gun, and a rig deployed to heal the pitbulls... Let them rank up, and they'll heal themselves when elite :cool:
 
The germany mission with a bridge and the scrin...FS the they just keep piling those ships over at me! I built loads of sonic defence to stop the ground, but their long range ships just destroy those. If i send pitbulls to shoot them down they get trashed by the ground units. I'm putting in 99.9% on defending myself so I have so little chance to attack, nightmare!

Anyone else having a problem with the Albania mission for GDI? I've estroyed everything but the mission still won't end. :(

You should get yellow arrows over the area that has not been completed. You have to destroy the buildings as well as the vehicles I think.

I have one yellow arrow but I destroyed the stuff there before I got the objective. Does that matter?
 
Guys, im finding it extremely difficult to do the cairo mission, got rushed whey early and didn't even get chance to buil any decent defence/ units?

I must be missing something critical, they attack from the north east (its the one where you have to destroy the nuke within 3 mins then take out the rest of their base, you start of with 2 predators and a few infantry)

Any tips would be greatly appreciated
1mm3 :confused:
 
I found it pretty easy (on normal) didnt get rushed too badly. Was able to get out some basic defences nps. i did just rush the nuke with 2 squads of aircraft though made the mission very easy tehn as i had time to build up my army
 
Airlift the commando up the left to the top left corner, and then walk him around to the 3 powerplants. It stops the countdown and you get a few more minutes before they remake the powerplants.

Then just do it again when it's nearly counted down. They never seem to learn.
 
OK GDI has 2 possible endings,
Nod just 1 ?
what about the scrin ? I only played something like 4 missions & the game ended ?!

The sonic turrets are great for the ground units, but I find myself being raped by millions of ships and especially the long range ones that throw blue stuff at you!

The mammoths are good, but you have to spend so much time bringing them forward and backward and repairing. AA guns are alright, if you have shed loads, but still no good for the long range blue stuff ship.
 
just installing the game at the moment (and i must say i feel like christmas will be here by the time its done lol)

quick question...how well does this game run on peoples systems? how well can i expect it to run on an athlon64 3800/2gb ram/X850XT? (my system feels so old now :()

EDIT: also whats this "kane edition" all about? is there a non kane edition?
