'Why Zero Hour Sucks' movie!
Subject description: Recommended for those who think that Generals isn't C&C game..
Alexander "Killerratte" Schützner and Daniel "Maniac_Extreme" Mahr, the authors from Command & Conquer: Tiberium Catastrophe, have posted their second C&C related movie on New Grounds called 'Why Zero Hour Sucks'.
The movie features their personal opinion about Zero Hour and what makes it suck, covering a EA/Westwood/EALA story from their point of view where the EA rushed their games, the lack of a real and descent story (yea, I must agree on this one, it definitelly sucked), the over powered minigunner from the infantry general, the never fixed scud bug, the hacker and etc...
Likewise Tiberium Catastrophe, 'Why Zero Hour Sucks' assures you some great laughs, even if you don't agree at everything that it says. Check it out HERE. Have fun! Last edited by Banshee on Thu Sep 28, 2006 12:56 am; edited 4 times in total QUICK_EDIT

No, I don't think they are a bunch of fucktards. Let's say they were a bunch of fucktards back in 2002, 2003... but they've been changing and improving the way they deal with their clients/game community. They are approaching the fans and the quality of some of their games are improving. I have to admit I don't like Fifa 2006 and most of their sport games doesn't seem to envolve at all, but the RTS is getting better. There is a great difference between Battle For Middle Earth I and II, in my opinion. And C&C 3 is looking promising so far. QUICK_EDIT

C&C3 has no tiberium pods, therefor it will suck and EALA should be ahnilated by a carbomb or something of the likes untill the staff gets the point. And we're not giving APOC back either. Nah. _________________ PPM's Reichstrollfuherer, 236th Trollenparties brigade. QUICK_EDIT

There giving us back everything else, ok how about a generals game with GDI/NOD logos slapped on the side. The games would of still sold pretty big to the Generals fans. QUICK_EDIT
Killerate is a real pr0 in making these, even though he has completed just two. It was so funny, and I have to agree with some of the things. However, I was never avare of that "Scud Bug"... _________________

No they wouldn't. The reason the Generals fans like Generals is because it is based on recent occurances. USA + China + GLA = Generic real world RTS for the masses. If they made generals out to be C&C3, it wouldn't have sold to the Generals fans because it would've taken place in a fictional universe. Generals fans want "real" games. The point of gaming is to escape reality, so I don't see what's good about Generals at all... _________________

I agree with most of the things like Generals really sucks since it is not a true after all u know, good work! This is actual proof showing y Generals isn't a C&C game u know and EA is Evil Arts 2 us vets for their treachery of non-C&C generals! _________________
I always read Killerratte here, Killerratte there ! >
Goddamnit he didn´t do the movie completely alone, it´s a teamproject. DONT FORGET ABOUT ME QUICK_EDIT
Good but the maker didn't realy have many reasons to why generals sucks, probably would of taken very long time to animate all the reasons. Liked the 'What is the cause?' part most QUICK_EDIT
It was still pretty roflarious. BUT, I have to agree that EA COULD have supported a bit more C&C Generals, even if Mark Skaggs and Harvard Bonin left. However, I have to disagree, because C&C3 is based exactly on what WW planned and concepted/sketched/designed/whatever the FVCK WAY BACK in 2000. So bitches, stop whining, C&C3 is still what it could've and should've been, only with better graphics and a more deep plot. There was still green zones, futuristic cars, insect-shaped Nod soldier helmets, Podless Tiberium, The Scrin, the same GDI and Nod buildings and units concepts in Westwood's 2001's TT (at the time barely renamed C&C3: Incursion). And remember, EA did announced C&C3 in the summer of 2004 indirectly. (in July 2004) Remember the Scrin base with the Primal?
So those who are whining for this shit, you fakers better go check CNC-source.com's gallery and check C&C Continuum and C&C3 sections in the gallery, 'cause that's stuff from way back in 2000 (IN-GAME C&C3:TW NOD INFANTRY DESIGNS LABELED C&C GENERALS, MADE IN 2000, you fags!). So all you stupid noobs who are whining for this shit, lemme give you three answers;
1. You've proven you're not a real C&C fan, you don't know what Westwood planned for C&C3 and that EA continued it correctly. (KEEP IN MIND LOUIS CASTLE AND JOE KUCAN WERE FROM WW!)
2. I bet that if EA was doing this with Frank Klepacki and Petroglyph (and if also maybe they wouldn't have made Generals), you bastards wouldn't be whining as much, even if it was the same thing as it is now.
3. IT IS JUST A PC GAME! GET OVER IT AND STOP CRYING FOR LITTLE
"NOTHINGS"! <_<
And maybe 4. C&C3 is looking like the best C&C game, better than even TS so far. How's that? WELL, EAT MY WORDS!
And besides, if you hate C&C3, then don't buy it! It's simple! Ignore it! Here's an example (not real): I don't like the new Warhammer expansion! Oh well, I won't buy it. I don't have to, i'm not obliged IF I DON'T LIKE IT. I'll just stick with what I like personally.
Is that so hard? Did anyone ever oblige you to buy C&C3? NO. SO SHADDUP THEN! IF you were obliged to buy it and play and didn't like it, maybe whining WOULD have been O.K. But now, it isn't, 'cause no one forced no one to buy, play or follow C&C3. It's as simple as that, people! Also, you can't force a company to remake the game entirely or make it HOW YOU WANT IT and make them change everything or even force them to make a new game because YOU JUST WANT IT for YOURSELF. At least say thanks they're even making it! And also say thanks they're listening to "faker fan" requests! hmph.
Oh, and EA IS NOT a bunch of fucktards. We're talking about the best and biggest game company in THE ENTIRE WORLD here. No, they're NOT fucktards, and pretty far from it. And then you guys wonder why the heck I'm not with the EA forums' Noobs and with the Gamereplays guys...geez... QUICK_EDIT

Alex06, I'd respect your post if it wasn't infested of unneeded flames.
By the way, Westwood Pacific was created back in 1999 (or before, I'm not sure). Red Alert 2 wasn't made only in one year, and Generals was developped for a very long time in Westwood Pacific/EA Pacific. In the end, these games were rushed by EA. The consolidation of Westwood, EA Pacific and another EA studio happened few days before the release of Generals. The scud bug exists and it's extremely annoying. The infantry general Minigunner is very strong against airplanes, although the author of the movie exagerates on all criticism against everything, of course. He was going to cover the Aurora Alpha, which is clearly overpowered, but the movie size would be too big, so he had to cut scenes and rush the release of this movie as well. QUICK_EDIT
lol i must say that was a worthwhile video to load and watch on my dial up
i hate generals for these reasons:
-the SAGE engine is good but at the same time i dont like it
-all fighting no plot
-doesnt fit anywhere into the CNC storylines
-has many bugs so i have heard and seen
-got 1 or 2 of my friends to see CnC as that crap and not the true greatness of TS/FS or TD.......so now they are like "That game is so old and has crappy graphics" whenever i mention TS. although the friend(s) that played Generals are the type of people that play one game for say maaybe 3 months then finds another to play
so yeah
anyways great job to the guys who made that movie i liked it _________________ Kalistia Crestland (2)

I just think EA is F***ing gay and made Westwood not as good. If EA didnt come along CNC games would be way more popular and better. CNC 3 would be the bomb, but now its just going to be like the other with better Gfx. _________________
