Will it be more Command & conquer games?

After C&C 4 the leader of the Nod leave the World with a lot of others Nods people.

GDI is left on the earth with Scrin portals. So how will the story go then if EA make a C&C 5?

Nod have no leader, Kane is gone and the Tiberium to(?) GDI is left on the earth.

What now?

No more Tib games. If so it will either be a complete reboot or set sometime during the established series.

I have... well, not high hopes, but hopes, that if EA started a story from scratch they might manage it better than if they had to warp an existing one.

In that case, why wouldn't they go ahead and create their own universe, with their own story, instead of just exploiting the work of others, for a change?

But we know C&C making a new C&C game and we can decide some tips to the developers and suchs at the C&C forum!

Tiberium is finished, Red Alert needs a break, Generals is under license with Mike Verdu until late 2012. So take a guess.

Deformat · Defense Minister **Joined**: 17 Sep 2007

Tiberium is not finished, hey, Kane comeback!

I bet that they will do something, like, GDI vs Scrin/Mutants, make a expansion or 3, then make another one with Kane actually coming back, or bringing someone else and then make another 3 expansions, and so Tiberium is not dead.

Red Alert....they should go back to RA1 and learn something.

Generals could come up as some sort of "OMGZ 21 Dec. 2012 APOCALYPSE!!!" shit. They could do it.

Scorched Earth · Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 2:27 pm Post subject:

Yeah, if you look around at some of the websites that show game release dates, you'll find many of them have a CnC due to come out next year.

Here's one, though it's a bit vague.

So we can't expect a Generals 2 until after 2012? That may explain why they keep ignoring that subseries...

MrFlibble · Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 5:07 pm Post subject:

Generals ain't no "subseries". It's a completely stand-alone game with no relations to the C&C universe save for the brand title and the SAGE engine (which wasn't used for any C&C RTS game by Westwood anyway).

Correction, no relations to the previous universes. Generals spawned a third universe.

As it clearly says "Command and Conquer" in the title, I see it as much as a subseries as that the Tiberium and the Red Alert series are. My opinion though.

Graion Dilach · Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 6:00 pm Post subject:

Oh my.

Generals was a nice game, but it's mechanic is sooo damned far from being C&C. Limited selection? Unit ability screen? Spammable SWs?

These are the reasons why I never take any "C&C" beyond Renegade seriously. Might be good games, but it's just not C&C anymore.

I agree that Generals is closer to something like Starcraft than C&C (bottom bar instead of sidebar, resource system, workers etc.), but C&C3 (and AFAIK also RA3) follow the classic C&C system pretty accurately, only taking the most of it and improving things which can be improved (like multiple factories, support powers, upgrades etc.). Unit abilities have been around for a while, just shown differently (and they're just giving the gameplay more variety).

Quote:

Considering that EA already has pretty succesful FPS's but no really succesful RTSs (atm), and that every C&C FPS game has failed to meet their expectations, they most likely won't be trying to make a new C&C FPS for a while.

Tiberium is on hold, if not, on the far back burner for some time. Red Alert is way over used in their eyes and needs a break. In with the new.

Tiberium is the best FPS I've ever seen and want to play =/

Same. It makes Crysis/Crysis 2/Modern Warfare 2 look like a pile of rubbish.

gufu · Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 8:46 pm Post subject:

Eh, in my opinion, Tiberium looked even more generic than MW/Crysis games.

What I want to know, is what happened to EA's license to Dune series?

Apparently, the licenses used by Westwood/EA to produce the Dune games have long expired, and the only way to get a new one is from the Herbert Properties LLC (a.k.a. HLP), who seem to have no interest in making Dune licensed games in the near future.

I hope for a continuation of Yuri's Revenge. The whole RA3 pissed me off. The soviets randomly having a Time Machine. That was meh. Maybe even do a CnC5 with Nod and Scrin battling over Scrin home world. Completely remove GDI.

Death Cultist · Posted: Fri Jul 29, 2011 6:40 am Post subject:

I agree with Hodrods, the RA3 storyline sucked. It was ridiculous, I hate how time travel became the convenient plot-point with which the rest of the RA storyline could be forgotten./rant That shitty semi-porno fest was nothing more than the masochist wet-dream of some EA developer./rant over
