Azrael 0 Posted August 11, 2007 In essence, then, after what Apoc said, I can say that Generals is not really a C&C game, but neither is it really a true C&C game... Kind of like the gray thin line in between. I loved Generals, only multiplay though. The AI was pretty good, and, most of all, it gave us SAGE, which, we all must admit, is one of the best (if not the best) RTS game engine at the time being. I sure hope though, that storyline gets better in the expansion for C&C3: Tiberium Wars... It was one of the things that compelled me to play C&C in the first place, the excellent story... So, if Apoc reads this, please tell your storyline board, please, please make a good story. Keep my love for C&C still there. P.S. If possible, try to get Frank Klepacki for the music, the music of C&C3 kind of forced me to use iTunes instead... :wink: Share this post Link to post
PunWisp 0 Posted August 11, 2007 pple say "rushed" about C&C 3 because its not up to there expectations, like the story mode, i personally like the story, and gameplay/graphics, only thing that bugged me was just some of the units put in, the squad thing, and it just wasnt stuck on it for long time, only bursts then inactive, jees i would play wc3 everyday and make maps for me to play on if you guys sold the expansion lets say 70 bucks, i would buy it, as long as it had some units, continued the storyline, etc i really cant wait until mods come loose Share this post Link to post

sith_wampa 6 Posted August 11, 2007 C&C 3 had the best launch ever of any C&C game, has sold over 2 million copies world-wide, has an average review in the mid-high 80's, thats pretty good to speak of for an RTS. That's not only because it was hyped up so much, but that people were waiting seven freaking years for it... Share this post Link to post
Azrael 0 Posted August 12, 2007 Whoah, whoah, it was an excellent game, although not the best game. It was quite hyped-up, but still, it delivered about 80 - 95% of what it promised. We waited 7 years, but still, that won't dull our senses, now won't it. It's just not the C&C from Westwood, so it really doesn't go according to the plans of the old Westwood team, yet still, I liked the game. The only thing was that the story kind of left at a cliffhanger... Share this post Link to post
VampireA05 0 Posted August 12, 2007 C&C3 just fair... Gens/ZH great..at the moment... RA2, still my best ever. Share this post Link to post
vyper 0 Posted August 12, 2007 c&c 3 is way better than generals/zero hour. generals really wassnt a c&c game. we all know that the gfx and effects r great but the gameplay is what makes c&c3 more faithful to the c&c tag. The sidebar interafce, the pace and the exotic weapons r what made the game really great for me. kind of felt like a mixture of ra2 and ts. the patch fixed the balance probs alot and tho the game should have been balanced from the start, i think EA has shown that its serious about giving c&c3 the support that generals lacked. when the expansion comes i think we'll forget about generals altogether. but one area where c&c3 should have been better was the fmvs. i mean the only guys holding it all together were kucan and 'ajay'. i honestly believe that they should stick with b-movie actors in games. they r somehow better. i mean look at the guy who played slavik, he was so cool. And oxana was waaaay cooler than any of the 'pro 'actresses in c&c3. EA should learn from TS's fmv cause c&c3 was too cheesey. . Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 7 Posted August 12, 2007 We aren't asking is C&C Generals a C&C Game... mmm it's an arguement but this topic mostly about Generals > C&C 3 or C&C 3 > Generals. Which Generals/ZH is a LOT better in terms of gameplay than C&C 3. There's a lot more depth, the factions ARE different, and there's more than 3 strategies to each team to use... the story and singleplayer wasn't there but I don't really think they made it to be a singleplayer game.

PunWisp 0 Posted August 12, 2007 it is a C&C game, just doesnt follow the same storyline, same goes for RA2&yuri's revenge Share this post Link to post
Saracen 16 Posted August 12, 2007 RA2 and Yuri's revenge was originally going to tie in with the rest of the universe. It was never intended as a spinoff. Whereas Generals was. Share this post Link to post

A killer thinks killing is good. Does that make it right? Does less attention cure the murders? No. (I know it's an exaggeration but it applies) You can THINK what you want, but saying it is different. Think like this: What he is saying is like this... A lone white dude in Detroit saying "I HATE BLACK PEOPLE". Now imagine, what would happen. When you say something, you make yourself public, that leaves you open to criticism.

PunWisp 0 Posted August 13, 2007 EA took over westwood and took over the C&C title, thus most likely they will us it as just a title, which they did until they made C&C 3 Share this post Link to post

Azrael 0 Posted August 13, 2007 Hell, C&C3 has less strategies, no doubt about that... But I'm still happy about it, seeing as were back to something close to the heydays of C&C, when Westwood still sat on its Golden Throne... :roll: Share this post Link to post

PunWisp 0 Posted August 13, 2007 cant cure murders, killing is natural, a no killing world only exists in the movies i can agree C&C 3 had less strageties but atleast they gave us C&C 3, atleast they shut us up :roll: Share this post Link to post

Redmond Boyle 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Why is killing wrong? Killing is natural. and this is a bit offtopic but I'd rather kill a Human than an animal. (Unless it's a bug...) Share this post Link to post
PunWisp 0 Posted August 14, 2007 why is it people think killing isnt natural? that itsn"taught" which isnt true, wild dogs kill dogs cats kill cats dogs kill cats cats kill rats and birds humans kill deer and such but no when it comes to humans killing humans its "wrong" damn its very hypicritical its all natural, mostly for survival. You see some insane people who kill right? well most arnt even taught, some like killing because it makes them feel good, some get off by it, and some for other reasons, 5% of killers are taught to kill, so you cant say they all get taught. if killing a human is a sin then so should killing animals, because we are animals too, just superior, well more like smarter then superior.
