[Cyborg207 0]

Hey there.

Over the official forums. Alex06 found a new C&C Tiberium saga-retrospective Trailer *from the gamestar.de site*

with new stuff from C&C 4 and some footage from 'Tiberium'.

just a glimpse of C&C 4 "Epic robots battle" .

check it out on YouTube:

 

 

and a couple of snapshots I took from the trailer:

 

Rocket bike and Zone trooper.

Some nice CGI there. Some of it looks like it was more suited for Tiberium Wars/Kane's Wrath though... Maybe some unused CGI?

[Gben 20]

Yeah nice new TW cgi... great trailer though.

Why aren't these seen in C&C3 KW (KW units)? Or these unused stuff will be in C&C4?

Well, we know for a fact they are not used in TW\KW, so probably it will be in C&C 4.

+ Its fitting the "Epic robot battle" description from the '3rd floor' so they were created for C&C 4 (AKA- C&C Arena)..

If those were meant to go for C&C3, why the devs didn't use them? It is a bad mistake for leaving CGI at the lowest priority, but I do know that they should not waste them. Remember some of the CGIs when you're at the Killian Ayers Rock mission's FMV? Many of these which shows Avatars walking are all wasted just to show them as background props.

 

If only those CGIs were to be played like in Tiberian Sun, where every mission you finish, there's CGIs in each of them. Not some EA who can't afford their own CGI room and don't put their money in investing those. Hate to bring up RA3, they also wasted tons of CGI scenes over a mere single 1st Allied mission.

 

EDIT : About for C&C4, I sure hope EA keeps their promise on creating more CGIs like it was meant to be like in Tiberian Sun. Although I won't put my hopes up yet, because every time I see tons of CGI, their promises became empty, like the RA3 Soviet trailer, when I see lots of Apoc tanks rolling snow & then in Paris & the Sickles in Rome, I was expecting tons of CGI like back in TS, but sadly after the game was released, it was all scenes combined into one just for the single 1st Allied mission. A BAD MISTAKE!

 

In summary, I won't be keeping up the hopes yet as I fear EA may not keep the promise very easily. And when it releases and it becomes empty again, then we can get the picture what their future holds.

Just as Luk3us said. Its all TW/KW stuff, none of that is for C&C 4.

 

The only thing that I don't recognise is the plane thing....

 

[Luk3us 63]

Looks like something out of Star Wars tbh.

Is it just me, or are those Zone Troopers wearing those old white football helmets from before their visual change? If you look closely.

[Gben 20]

Sonic I'm wondering if the plane is from Tiberium... didn't we have unarmed drone planes we can call in airstrikes or something?

 

But thinking back to Silverthorn's fav subject, CGI, they would have been appropriate for end-game cgi videos in C&C3.

Second that. I think its some form of GDI UAV or some civilian plane.

[Mighty BOB! 5]

/me misses post-mission CG.

[Cyborg207 0]

Second that. I think its some form of GDI UAV or some civilian plane.

 

..Like I said "W3N airplane", the plane belong to the tiberium universe news channel - W3N

its written on it, pause at 00:51 and see.

[Johnnyxp64 20]

those must be from Tiberium and KW and never used. who knows. the point is they are amazing CGI for KW that was not in the game

too bad. i love outside fight CGI. Tiberium universe needs them so damn badly. old good Tiberian Dawn days.....

 

i have some a little more hi res if you like.

Still don't know why people think this new C&C 4 stuff. Its not. The whole trailer it put together using TW/KW stuff. The unfamiliar stuff is mostly concepts from Tiberium. The only thing new in this video is the C&C 4 logo.

[Johnnyxp64 20]

i dont think is cnc4 "stuf" its older KW and Tiberium stuff, that may be used in CnC4 to some how tell the story so far....those all cg could be in a special collection HD DVD.

 

i still cant belive they trought aways those cool cg! specially the Avatar battle!!!!

 

KW could be even better and polished with some post mission CG.

Thanks for the screenshots, looking at the shot with the Avatar it seems to be fighting a GDI mech.... doesn't look like a juggernaught or wolverine. I wonder what it is???

 

Most of the other shots are familar KW units, but the new gdi plane and new gdi mech make me wonder where it really was from....

 

[Malevolence 6]

I wonder how did the guy acquired unused videos and CGI stuff. EALA should just release them since C&C3 is out or something, or they could put it in that bonus disc. Sigh.

Kind of a like a magician's secret, did EA keep them because CGI is at the lowest priority and many fans just don't remember them. Well, I'm not forgetting CGI, as a Westwood traditionalist, CGI can never be slipped away, I'll remind every fans to remember that C&C has tons of CGI, just like Westwood did in the past.
