PlayCNC - An Adventure to Tiberian Sun & Beyond

[Sonic 293]

A new update has been posted over at PlayCnC. This blog takes a look at the multiplayer development of Tiberian Sun, Firestorm, Red Alert 2 and Yuri’s Revenge. Recently, the PlayCnC team has been researching, diving into network packets and finding out exactly where they stand with these games in the PlayCnC development cycle.

 

Creating a platform that will host C&C Multiplayer games is no easy feat. Its the sole determination that our team holds in researching every little detail to find how these games once used to run that drives this project forward. Our main strength is that passion and determination, that we never tire of giving up on the idea of positive change. Since the closure of Westwood Online, the way we could learn how its original features worked was lost. World Domination Tour, Quick-Co-op to just name a few, are a pretty special element to reintroduce to PlayCnC if we can find out how they worked. Its never been about just bringing back a server ‘that works’ – far from it. Infact, we’ve always been on a mission to re-ignite C&C nostalgia, to try our utmost to bring the original features back as they were intended to be played, and create a rewarding and exciting new online experience.
