February 14th: Buy Kane's Wrath and get RA3 beta keys!
Subject description: Yea buddies! Hail the soviet empire again!
Red Alert 3 has been unnoficially announced on many magazines, including a hungarian one and PC Gamer.com. The picture I've got is really surprising and should tell you what is february 14th's announcement:
For several months, EALA has been keeping the mother of all secrets and in only a few weeks a major announcement will come, and all of those who purchased either Command & Conquer 3 Limited Collection or Kane's Wrath on the PC, will have one more reason to cheer. Be glued to www.commandandconquer.com in only two weeks and look for next months episode of Battlecast Primetime for even more details on this top secret announcement from EALA.
It's not top secret anymore. Thanks for the agent Alex06, but other agents on other websites were just as fast as him. If you look at CNCDEN and CnC Saga, you'll see a picture of an upcomming hungarian magazine with information on Red Alert 3 as well.

If you bought C&C3, go pre-order Kane's Wrath. It's worth it (bonus stuff for KW, bonus disc, RA3 beta key) and it's only 30 bucks. (I even asked) QUICK_EDIT
I got excited when i saw this. Seriously a good Red Alert 3 game will make my day when I finally get to play it. _________________ Kalistia Crestland (2)

About time EA! Lets just hope they put as much effort, if not more, as they did with CNC 3. I may pre-order Kane's Wrath but not because of the RA3 Beta key, I have a bad feeling that it going to be for US residents only. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Well, hopefully RA3 will look more like RA2, I know it won't be 2.5d, but aesthetics wise. For example, the easy-to-mod rules.ini, granted it will still be difficult since it will most likely be in 3D, but sometimes its better.
And yes, anyone of us who may be wanting a beta key and doesn't live in the US or Canada, will most likely have to ship ourselves to North America, or close to it. (Not worth my time if you ask me) _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT
RA3 eh? It's time It's been 8/7 years since RA2 was released. Just hope they don't remove the Prism tech xD Hmm...zoomable/rotatable...AA combat...no stupid AIs... _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
I don't quite understand the beta key stuff.
What does it mean, "being in the RA3 beta"?
'Cause I must totally agree to TerroR.
I did not enjoy Tiberium Wars in any way and it's been one of the biggest mispurchases I've made.
So I'm not really interested in wasting more money for Kane's Wrath... QUICK_EDIT
TW was a dissapointment for me. The only reason I'm keeping it is for the Tiberian Dawn mod and TibSun Rising, otherwise this game would be long gone by now.
I'm hoping they don't make RA3 a piece of shit, I really do. I'd like to see how this game turns out and whats different from RA2.
That, and wait for a RA1 mod for it. _________________ Ex Cliffie-detector and continued general annoyance. QUICK_EDIT
TW sucked, KW looks even worse, so I aint touching RA3 with a 10 foot pole. Unfortuently, RA1 was good, RA2 was bad so RA3 would suck even worse then TW because EALA is making it, now WW QUICK_EDIT

1st screens of pre-TW looked good to me, but when I played it, I realized it's not so good as should be.
I hope this won't repeat with RA3 which was announced (unofficially) before CnC3 was done. _________________

IF I can betatest RA3, I'll buy KW And only if I can test it from mah home (norway)
However, I cann't imagen what they have done to the storiline, if there isw any left
And I'll kill 'em if general carvill is gone, he simpely looks great And what ahppend to yuri? How knows... Not EA :p _________________ This is a signature QUICK_EDIT
Some screenshots are rolling around and they look disapointing tbh. Hopefully they are outdated so i'm keeping my fingers crossed for the official screens to look more sexy.
It looks like EA are just doing a copy and past with RA2 units and weapons but just changing the look of the models which anyone can do and modders are already doing. QUICK_EDIT

There is something definitely wrong here, I was hoping for a little bit of RA2 style cartoonyness, but this is OVER THE TOP! _________________ QUICK_EDIT

Yeah, global conquest mode, epic units, the new support powers and abilites (Ravager, Mechapede), the link to TS, cyborgs, mechs, subfactions etc. really do suck... QUICK_EDIT

I rather liked TW. TW was addictive and fun. Better than UaW or EaW, but...RA3's a joke. _________________ PPM's Reichstrollfuherer, 236th Trollenparties brigade. QUICK_EDIT

I'd better see some migs and flankers in this one, I'm attempting to try the beta out and I'm tired of seeing those Kirovs, they're awfully powerful unbalanced units. World in Conflict has been my red alert 3 for a while but unfortunately its a Real time tactics game. EA really need to make some corrections on their attemps on using cryillic letters or else they're nothing but a laughing stock. _________________

Nobody should take your opinion seriously anyway, since you're one of those irrational EA-Hating morons. Every time you open your mouth on anything to do with EA, all that comes out is a lot of stupid comments that no one could care less about.

This might be a great game, but after seeing the screenshots.... I don' know, I hope that was a three year old beta And where is the apoc, Prism, and the teslacoils? And one more thing, it looks like TW+new moddels+"new" weapons
I know it's still a beat, but this isn't looking god atm... Hoever, I will give it time, after all, EA did give us the good BF 1942 and BF 2 (BF2142 wasn't that great) _________________ This is a signature QUICK_EDIT
Don't forget EA brought us YR already, and does it rock? The hell yes it does!
About that "beta", do you really believe you're actually going to beta test RA3? It's just going to be a demo version dedicated to paying customers, ie a way to make money.
After that pile of boredom called Tiberium Wars I'm definitely not paying any money to expand that.
If you say RA3 is nothing but a TW mod, then at least it is a high quality one that is actually going to get finished, unlike most TC projects you see...
Ah well, till now I'm loving everything about RA3 I have seen. QUICK_EDIT
is not ra1 a mod of td?
is not ra2 a mod of ts?
they why would ra3 be a mod of tw?
The game will be good, wait and see. I wonder if there will be "countries" or "generals" along with it _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
Since when do the allies have bigger tanks then the soviets! When this comes out, I might get it. But I'm not buying KW for it. _________________ Comcast: Yo dawg we herd yo were downloading, so we put fail in yo modem so yo cant download while yo failin! QUICK_EDIT

i agree allies are ment to have small light tanks.
also the scrreny reely if you think about it its just TW with the red alert units i have mixed feelings 4 it but well have to see how it develops _________________ U flame me the evangelion series will kill u QUICK_EDIT
EA bought WW, it was live a subdivision of EA. They kept the name because it was like a brand name. When it didn't seel games as well, then they combined it with the closest EA studio, and renamed it EALA. Look at Westwood as being like texas, and if something was made their, both "made in america" and "made in texas" technically work. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum.
