New C&C Community Manager!
Subject description: A creature that doesn't want to be identified... never! 200k likes in facebook is a lame excuse.
Have you visited Command & Conquer facebook recently? It seems that the new messiah... errr... C&C community manager has spoken there. And here's his message:
Quote:
I am your new C&C Community Manager. Who am I? I won’t reveal myself until I see over 200,000 people “like” @CommandandConquer on facebook.
And he has left this image as a tip:
Apparently, it is someone who has white skin and two hands. So, yea, he doesn't seem to be typing with his tongue, unless the hands are fake.
So, he will just reveal himself when C&C's facebook account receives 200 000 likes. If, after all these years, it has received less than 150 000 likes, I guess we'll deal with a non-identified community manager... at least in one year or so. So, I guess we can conclude that he is shy and he likes to preserve his privacy. Also, by his move, we expect him to like speculation and he naturally likes to overhype people (I guess that's how he's got his job).
And finally, I've been using 'he'... but by these hands, it looks like to be male. So, I'll keep using 'he' until I'm proven wrong.
That's it and let the speculation commence. But just to start: it is NOT Joe Kucan. How do I know that? By the hands . QUICK_EDIT

I don't really see the point of this. Is he well-known enough that people will actually care? As Omega said, what's even left to manage? Core C&C fans started leaving the community with RA3 and even more left with C&C4.
If they really want to revitalise the series they have to reboot from the start. They need to do what they did with Tomb Raider and go back to what made the Command and Conquer games so good to begin with. Unfortunately, I don't know if EA have the honesty to admit they were wrong about C&C4 so they'll keep pushing a "revolutionary" RTS for a series that was rarely varied from its original formula anyway. _________________

Core C&C fans don't matter. The real focus of the community, like it or not, is EA's C&C forum. PPM is the ass end of the internet to them. _________________ Victory! QUICK_EDIT
Actually, I swear they are rebooting. A few hints here and there lead me to beleive this, I think Apoc himself said 'they are now trying to blah blah blah reboot'.
Anyways, updates on the official site are like once every three months with the latest being 'how to use the stealth tank'. If anything, it looks like recently the HAVEN'T been looking at the community. But who knows, I'm trading in the messiah for the emperor anyways. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT

I share this opinion. C&C has died for me, and if they don't make some kind of awesome remake of the TS feeling with a cool campaign and good balanced, with the possibility to get modified, I will never ever care about the new C&C's anyway. The same with EA.
And I doubt that we will ever see him, when he only reavels him, when C&C get 200.000 times 'I like it'.
I gues, it's just another way to see if there are still some people who can be exploited - if there are enough ppl saying 'I like it', EA will produce just another crap C&C, pressing the last money out of the ppl >.< _________________

Unless they completely reboot the series, or start working on Tiberium FPS again, I couldn't be arsed less to know who this mystery person is. Hell, it may even be Bush or Steve Jobs. QUICK_EDIT
Take a look at some of the comments that have been posted on that particular status though, shows some of the views aren't just nailed to our specific community. I do kinda feel sorry for the guy having to come into the franchise in it's current state. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
But then again, he's a community manager. Game communities seem to default to this sort of hatred for their passion... If the Community Manager hasn't understood this, then he really should find a less demanding job. QUICK_EDIT

Hey guys, I think the answer might be revealed in about 100 days. The C&C Facebook is getting an average of 500-800 likes per day, but it should slow down after 3 weeks or so. QUICK_EDIT
