Guys i'm sorry but C & C died in 2003 when EA LIQUIDATED Westwood Studios.

C & C will never be the same :(
and any true fan of C&C from '95 would agree with me

RIP Westwood

Please PLEASE make the graphics normal this time, not like C&C3 where everything looked like it jumped out of a children's toy magazine or something. In all my honesty, I just don't get it how can people like that kind of crap.

I hold Tiberian Sun on such a pedestal that no RTS game has ever even almost even barely come close. None.

The one that has even almost even barely come close was Supreme Commander, but I feel they could have balanced the game out more to aspire to the levels of TS.

RTS = Real-Time >>>***!!!STRATEGY!!!***<<<

The whole strategy thing hasn't been relevant to game developers in a really long time as they usually focus on one aspect of strategy, offense, and completely nerf / ignore / balance the defense aspects of it.

You should be able to win a game with a majority of defense, too. You shouldn't need to rush the other player to win, and if you don't expand quickly, you shouldn't be at such a disadvantage that you cannot win if it goes long.

This should be announced any day now.

EA has been teasing great news for C&C fans for early july.

Gamestar Magazine will feature a new C&C on the cover of their late july issue.

And Gamespot just posted a C&C retrospective vid that just screams "we have the exclusive reveal of the next game".

And hey, I don#t think that the series was that bad with the sequels.

15 years - 7 rts - 8 expansions - 1 fps - 1 cancelled fps - 1mmo game

Now we just need a new engine, as Saga is 7 years old or so...

Why do they say "with innovative RPG-like player progression, persistent in both single player and Multiplayer modes, co-op play" when they mean "with no LAN support"?

RA3 still has no LAN support for co-op, doesn't it?

15 year conclusion huh?

Let me guess, you play the same wipe-the-bases for 15-20 scenarios and then you fight some kind of nod super unit at the end. Then an expansion is released where kane is shown to be not dead and comes back.

Basically a remake of tiberium war who is itself a remake of tiberium sun.
