Jet Set Games to develop an RTS set in the near future?
This picture was posted on Gary Freeman's (concept artist, former Westwood employee, did work for C&C3: Incursion, C&C: Continuum and C&C: Tiberian Sun) Facebook page:
Swords, Sorcery, Spies and More!
Jet Set Games develops titles for mobile devices, web browsers and consoles. Games that bear the Jet Set moniker feature elegant design, simple controls, and usually a good dose of off-the-wall humor.
Our top work includes Highborn, a critically and commercially successful casual strategy game for iOS, Android and Chrome; Conspiracy, a spy-based action/puzzler for PlayStation®Home; and plenty of amusing clothing, costumes and furniture PlayStation Home DLC items.
Jet Set Games was founded by a couple of guys with a an average of 20 years of video game industry experience, working on titles ranging from Command & Conquer, Dune, Blade Runner, and MAG to name a handful.
Since 2008, we’ve built a team of the most talented game developers for every platform imaginable, and set up shop in one of the coolest places on the planet — VEGAS BABY!
Jet Set games is composed of developers of past C&C games (yes, the original ones from Westwood!), and they develop iPhone and iPad games. So perhaps we might see a C&C clone for the iPad/iPhone, sort of like how StarFront: Collision, an iPad/iPhone game, is a clone of StarCraft.
Jet Set Games is lead by Brett Sperry & Rade Stojsavljevic, who are former Westwood Employees. They worked on the first 3 or 4 C&Cs (TD through to RA2). Sperry is the co-creator of C&C and the man behind the Tiberium universe, mostly. He's also the co-founder of Westwood Studios, alongside Louis Castle, who works at Zynga. Rade was producer on Tiberian Sun and Firestorm.
This looks very similar to C&C. The tanks on the right also look very Russian, and one looks like a Russian version of the Predator from Tib Wars, whereas the other looks like a Mammoth Tank or Overlord, with a paintjob and design that also reminds of the Flame Tank from Tiberian Dawn. The ones on the right look like real-life Chinese tanks. Judging from this picture, it looks indeed like it could be some kind of Generals/Red Alert/Tiberian Dawn type of game. (near future) It seems Generals 2 might have some competition? QUICK_EDIT
Umm I don't see it at all tbh. The 'Mammoth' pictured has only 2 treads as far as we can see and a very curvy streamlined turret completely unlike the Overlord which has every gadget/weapon thrown in Scrapheap Challenge style. QUICK_EDIT
Avoiding this thread I hope. I don't need any of his bullshit invading a perfectly good thread about a coming RTS. _________________ KGR | AT

How far are we talking? m7 did say blind fanboyism, unless you mean totally homoerotic love. That would be about Pepzi's level. _________________ KGR | AT

I hope if we could get the voices of this one. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

Basically, but he's not nearly as harmful. He makes up for it by being far more obnoxious and annoying. _________________ KGR | AT

I'm only an asshole to those who deserve it, and it just so happens you constantly deserve it. _________________ KGR | AT

I have not much to add into the conversation but I have evidence that FurryQueen isn't an asshole in non-provocative environments and 100% agreeing with O'Bolt's post. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman

I like the picture, and lol I read Jet Set Radio too. Some here should get them a room to settle their private stuff, and do it safe. _________________ Free Tibed!
