Response to C&C/MCV Doubters

[Saracen 16]

Command & Conquer is and always will be recognised as a game franchise that defined a genre. What Doom did for First Person shooters, C&C has done for the RTS and more. But unfortunately, like Doom 3, C&C 3 will not find it easy being the game that'll set the standards for games to come. All because of the competition out there nowadays. What made Doom 3 good though was the trip back to nostalgia. Doom was unique for its run and gun and nothing else gameplay. Many FPS Games followed a different route but Doom 3 stuck to basics, and was loved by many people. C&C has no reason for one second to follow the bandwagon mainstream. Back to basics roots and following what it does best is what C&C is all about. If you want a sci-fi SCV over MCV game, there are plenty of others out there to go and pick up. But C&C is staying MCV for the foreseeable future, and I for one, regardless of being a veteran, am proud that EA chose C&C to remain unique in this fashion.

The MCV was created for C&C, and it shall remain C&C

Is this in reaction to what the so called true "pro players" found in these forums think about the direction C&C 3 should be going in?

[Saracen 16]

yeah, I could have made that a little clearer.

[Alphabear 11]

hmm i have never been to those forums before and i never will again

sad, C&C fans ruin C&C

 

This was in a thread about EA focusing on Singleplayer and not putting all their time into multiplayer

MCVs might be C&C, but I really enjoyed the mobility dozers gave me in ZH :2c:

[Cygnus X-1 12]

So they keep the dozers in the Generals (maybe even another timeline, but not under hte C&C name)

[F15pilotX 4]

something like that

Whats an SCV?

[Saracen 16]

Space Construction Vehicle

 

It's the Terran unit in Starcraft. Now a generic term commonly used to describe any construction unit that builds multiple structures, as opposed to an MCV which is described as a unit that is only ever used once to build a structure.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

You mean like in RA2 where the MCV build defense structures and tech structures at the same time....sounds like more than one to me
