Interesting, thanks for the heads up. After my disappointment in Red Alert 3, and EA's recent underhanded tactics, I'm not sure if I'll jump on this. As I get older, Beta means less "fun" and more "frustrating."
You mean 'demo'.
It's on Impulse.
Its friday and I am a bit slow. Its not on my impulse list of games to install (The Demigod demo is). What do I have to do?
Seems like the EA devs REALLY liked World in Conflict. So much that they pretty much copied it. It might work out for clan play, but from what a saw with WiC depending on random strangers every game gets very frusterating very quickly. Games were often decided on the loading screen.
Well, I haven't played WiC but CnC 4 has the same basic play style as Dawn of War 2 in my opinion. Only one structure, build everything from that, and fight over control points.
I played through WiC, but skipped DoW2 despite being a huge fan of the original (see my avatar). This news does not get my hopes up. (Though, WiC had an great engine that made me wish every RTS would use it.)
Well, DoW2 has an amazing Campaign, but ultimatel DoW 1 is better until they get more factions in DoW 2.
DoW2 actually matched my idea of what Warhammer 40k should be like (rather than the massed armys of table top stuff).
Now if someone made a great MMO where you play gears of war style... opps went WAY off topic.
If C&C4 has fun coop, thats all I care about anymore. C&C the legend died after red alert 2 imo, after that it fell too far behind other RTSes both in features and more importantly fun.
C&C3 was like a childs game compared to SupCom.
Well I personally LOVED CnC General+Zero Hour.
Basically I've loved all of the CnCs, but they got less appealing since CnC3, and I barely Played Red Alert 3, and I doubt I'll be picking up CnC4.
I just don't understand how they could go to the proverbial drawing board and make a list of everything CnC is and slowly start crossing them out.
Base Building
Hero Units
Resource Mining/Harvesting
Etc Etc Etc
Can't even get a beta key because Gamespot won't let me register. I'm not a robot
Personaly it dided for me after Red Alert: Aftermath.
I tried the beta and played 5 matches. Game is really bad and it is a disaster, I can't belive this is a C&C game. It is like Dawn of War 2 (I love Dawn of War 2 but this game has no fun). No base building and you must capture the points the win the game. Gameplay is really bad and graphics are so old (I am not a graphics guy but they are really bad, worse than C&C 3 and Red Alert 3. So smart move from EA, I know this just a beta but I think I won't buy this game. I hope they will make Generals 2 but game mechanics will be the same with Generals 1.
I couldn't agree more, please make another Generals. It sucks even more when you consider that fact that they said this would be the end of the Tiberium Story Arc.
They chose this format to supposedly improve gameplay on console. Think HaloWars and the confined bases. Sad I know but what did you expect. Due keep in mind that one of the biggest complaints of its predecessor was the difficulty over previous titles.
I fully agree C&C Generals was a good game after ZH. I just wish the modding options were more flexible to make it a great game.
It's give and take. Generals was one of the easiest games to mod and has a couple of great ones.
There are many great features available to you once you register, including:
