Do you need an Origin account to watch the live stream?

[Sonic 292]

Don't think so, on the day and time of the live stream just go to http://www.ea.com/gamescom and click the appropriate play button. Simple really.

[Plok 319]

I believe that it was a joke...

[PurpleGaga27 37]

As what AZ_Stalker once said in his status update:

I just hate all of these invisible pointing big red arrows and the constant hanging of signs on the new Generals game that say "Free to Play" as if C&C sold it's soul and became a cheap prostitute. I'm getting sick of reading C&C news and finding "F2P" all over the place. Imagine if a friend were to ask you what game you're playing and you responded with "Command and Conquer Free to Play"... that just sounds horrible.

 

Still EA denies having C&C add in a subtitle.

 

Some people would think EA is developing C&C as a remake if they saw this title, but in fact it turned out to be a new F2P version of C&C that is a online/offline service game with no subtitle and that's still confusing to people.

[Johnnyxp64 20]

i seriously doubt we will see or learn anything new

[Plok 319]

Can't say you don't have grounds for that doubt, but at least we can hope...

[Plok 319]

Victory Games has confirmed this not even an hour ago. Kinda late, though...

[Nmenth 289]

I don't think I have an abnormally dirty mind... but am I the only one who sees something in that picture which ought not be?

[Plok 319]

Holy ****, Nmenth, now I can't unsee it

[Johnnyxp64 20]

lol lol lol damn you are right i cant unseen it too ! lol

[PurpleGaga27 37]

Besides a transparent globe, I am seeing a silhouette of a trooper that almost resembles one of Nmenth's drawings of either a Nod Trooper or Soviet Tesla Trooper in Cartoon and Conquer.

[Guest Rabbit]

A real phallacy, I know.

[Guest Stevie_K]

I am seeing a silhouette of a trooper

A trooper... righty

[Sonic 292]

You guys are childish, but yeah its there.

[Nyerguds 100]

It's odd though, how they only now announce they'll be at gamescom with C&C, while I've heard many people already ordered their tickets. You'd think they'd at least try to get more C&C fans involved there by announcing this earlier...

[Guest Stevie_K]

Wouldn't be surprised if it is the result of a last minute decision.

[Johnnyxp64 20]

Wouldn't be surprised if it is the result of a last minute decision.

yeap simply because they will propably have exactly the same version - demo to show

ow well maybe they will make us a new trailer again...

 

what we see here is a huge luck of marketing thought!

huge! no hipe for this game at all compared to previous titles, no promotion almost at all, nothing new nothing Solid, and all these because as i said many times, they have not ****ing idea where are they gona take this how exactly they will run it and support it and how they will make money out of this!

 

if this game fails it will be only because of the stupid marketing.- period!

 

not the game engine or content it self! if this goes to retail full game for 40$ with LAN, (even with online login like startcraft, BUT with LAN option) and if they give it the title Generals 2, this will sell like hot bread!

but i am not an EA manager specialist, i propably no nothing about gaming and what people want in the RTS those years

Don't attempt to get around the bad language filter.

[G Daddy 2]

I can't stop laughing at the path this thread has taken...

 

A curve to the left perhaps?
