Don't you people think that Red Alert 3 is the best C&C game so far? Many say that C&C Generals was the best C&C game. Probably so because they didn't have the hindering MCV mechanic which doesn't work so good today. I'm not surprised that EA is going in a new direction with C&C 4 as StarCraft 2 and DoW 2 will have the competetive gamers in their hand. People will try C&C 4 but few will stay. It will almost certainly be a failure as far as MP

Command & Conquer 4 is announced! This will be the final part in the RTS tiberium universe, but the tiberium universe itself may live on.... They seem to have changed alot in that they're incorporating RPG features like buying upgrades and stuff for EXP points you get everywhere (SP, MP etc.).

Since I prefer to play with people I can chat to afterwards and keep contact with on forums or IM I tend to not play MP so much....got this resistance to MP since people online do everything to win and I get put off by that feeling.... I want to start with the following though: FPS Quake Live - Learning Strafe and circlejumping. Man it's hard! But so fun! I'm up anytime!) Team Fort

Why are some stores lapdogs to ESRB ? Is it to be able to have some stupid "children safety store" sign or something dumb like that ?? I haven't heard the same about some stores caving in to PEGI. Guess it's because that Europeans are dropping religion. Did you know that it was Mortal Kombat<

Nice update Boogie [e digicons]:digichet:[/e]

Having only played AoW:SM but read about MoMs system I think I prefer Master of Magics system. The issue with there being too many spells so you don't get the rare "World of Darkness" spell that you really want can be solved with you learning the spells you want first. But then again I'm not sure. I think I want a system like this: Research 3 common spells unlocks an uncommon spell Research 5 common spells unlocks a rare s

The fools at ESRB don't even got their ratingtext correct....They list Mature games as suitable from 10+ when it's really 16+....http://www.parenting.com/gear-article/Gear/Software/Video-Game-Ratings-21355202 I've never given a wooden nicle about any rating and never will. I played DOOM when I was 10 and I liked it. Mom never questioned anything. Dad though didn't buy me any violent games [e digicons] In Duke 3D there was a

[quote who="landisaurus" reply="12" id="2289198"] Communication is much more understandable to not-change. Unlike measurements, there is a lot of culture inbedded in the way people talk, and language has no standard yet. I don't believe any culture loss would happen if we changed to the metric system. The point of Esperanto is to have have a simple language that does not break its own rules. The reason you "must use a constructed language" is beca

I'm an intelligent PC Gamer. I don't own any consoles. I LOVE achievements [e digicons]:D[/e] Made me buy Universe At War (for 9 euro though). It's cool to have lots of difficult achievements on a popular MP game since others will envy you and go "how the hell did he get THAT one??! Kinda like I and a friend went when somebody had gotten "Sheng Long is

What parts of Master of Magic did you wanted to put in Elemental ? Which parts made it ? What do you think about the Age of Wonders series ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAGjlqYOoRU Will playerskill be a factor in combat or is it like 90% dependent on characterskill ? By "you" I mean the whole team, not just you Brad [e digicons]:P[/e] The Age of Wonders series is somewhat of a modern version of Master of Magic that

No one have said the worst thing that would happen. Elemental, StarCraft 2 and Diablo 3 which only exists in digital form would VANISH !

Smaller cities of one type of people where everybody knows everybody would mostly help eachother and be the best of.

Finally something about the next generation! Was getting impatient! [e digicons]:annoyed:[/e] 40nm....Guess that's good enough....With cpus down to 45nm and soon 32nm I had hoped for 32nm dies but then again double performance in a 5870 from a 4870 is helluva good!! [e digicons]:grin:[/e] That means I can finally get a 24" 1920x1080 or 1920x1200 monitor and actually be able to USE the full resolution [e digicons]:D[/e] <p

[quote who="SpardaSon21" reply="13" id="2275486"]Is C&C 4 going to be a Demigod clone? One of the best parts of C&C was its lack of a unit limit and expendable units.[/quote] I've always believed that it sounds dumb as hell when someone say something like that...."OH! So C&C Generals are gonna be a StarCraft clone??" <-- The "TRUE C&C!!!" fans on the official forums was like that because C&C Generals were going to have worker units just like

I played through the First Decade from C&C 95 to Zero Hour less then a year ago and it was quite fun. C&C 95 and Red Alert are perfectly playable. It's Tiberian Sun that's an issue since the pace is slow as molassess! The most challenging aspect will the the Zero Hour campaign on Hard. Chinese mission #3 is really tough. Funnily enough they don't compare to C&C 3: Kanes Wrath in difficulty...stuck on the 7th or so mission. There you can talk about difficult!

I've seen that ctrl+alt+delete one before. Funny [e digicons]:grin:[/e] "Grab a tit and get a blue eye" The WoW ones are soo cliche but still funny. I need to get this T-Shirt [e digicons]:grin:[/e] [img]http://kotaku.com/assets/resources/2008/03/101-2.jpg[/img]

I only wonder what machine that will be able to have 60FPS on maximum graphics. Hope that a Core 2 Duo 3Ghz and a GeForce 8800 GTS (G92) is enough. Otherwise I'll have to get a priceworthy highend card.

It's not up on Blizzards site yet but it's on youtube (Man, everything's on youtube these days [e digicons]^_^[/e] ) It's a Zerg vs Protoss on a new map with the space tileset with the Zerg at 12 and Protoss at 2. They show off the Protoss Nullifier with its forcefield ability which is used to great effect. It also got antigravity which is taken for a spin. The Zerg Infestor got mindcontrol which is insanely powerful and is used for max

[quote who="Denryu" reply="3" id="2265008"]I may be mistaken but it seems like with MP in the alpha, and likely all MP at this point will be on their servers, they will be able to "record" every game. If they have some learning AI, they would be able to feed all the data of a game and let the game start "learning" from watching human controlled games. Or this could just be wild speculation and this type of AI learning is not even possible, at least not at the game developer level.

Lore, logic and all that is not the important thing. It's about gamebalance and variety. Exchange 'factions' for races or sides. It really doesn't matter to me what you call them. Norse, Greeks and Egyptians in Age of Mythology. Elves, Dwarves, Humans and Undead in Age of Wonders to Germans, Russians, British and Spanish in Age of Empires 3. The important thing is that the factions/races/sides are different enough so it's exciting to play as them.

Not sure how to do the campaign....The Sovereign should probably keep his research and lvl (essence is an entirely different matter which I won't touch here) but for every next scenario you should only have 1 or 2 techs and spells already researched (like in GalCiv 2) so it doesn't become like Age of Wonders 2 where you research every single spell in the first lvl of the Fire lvls while holding of winning so you can steamroll the other 2 Fire lvls. Then repeat in the other lvls (Water, Air, L

I'm certain that part of it (like FireWarriors in DoW having short LOS but incredible range) got to do with gamebalance. If the abovementioned FireWarriors (FW) could see as far as they can shoot then they would be overpowered....now you have to scout with a unit to be able to fire at full range. It also sounds like the OP is ready to sacrifice gameplay for realistic LOS rules. Making gameplay worse because of realism can never be good.
