I fear that EA will screw this up, just like they screwed up Generals. It seems that neither EA or Westwood can/could balance three sides properly(Generals, Yuri's Revenge(In Dune, all sides were pretty much equal)).
I am getting bored of RTS games. You almost allways have to do same things in almost same order over and over.
I also think it is pretty hard to make decent RTS game these days.
Too much micromanagement= A game will be only for Hardcore gamers, and casual gamers will not stand a chance
Too little micromanagement= A game will be just another "build as many tanks as you can, and attack(and do this pretty much every time)"
I liked Renegade because THIS is how I allways wanted to play those boring RTS games.
Maybe I don't really like RTS games much any more because I am just too slow and prefer to be part of a team, or maybe it is because in most RTS games, your units are pretty stupid unless you directly control them.
But if the AI of the units in RTS games were to improve significantly(not going to happen with C&C3, that would be too much work for EA), then they would become 1000 times more fun.
Amen

I just hope the developers manage to strike a balance between Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2--that would be nirvana. Perhaps I'm thinking the atmosphere of TS and the gameplay of RA2 (not YR).
I haven't played RTSs competitively since YR. I miss it... =\

It's too bad how lame the gameplay in Age of Empires III turned out.

Crimson wrote on Tue, 28 November 2006 22:17 | Awesome. I am a Renegade devotee, as you know, so I haven't been following C&C3 much. I'm glad the feedback has been mostly positive thus far. Is there anything you've been wanting to know about the game?
(Sorry, this will all make sense in a couple weeks)

I simply... cant wait.
I think the best part will be the FMVs, they have a lot of good actors.

What I want to know is not about the game per se, it's more about EA. Do the employees enjoy making this game? Is the atmosphere as fun-loving as Westwood seemed to have been back in the day? Or is this just another project for them? I think the answers to these questions will play a major part in my attitude toward the game.
As for the game, I plan on buying it, unless a demo is released and I absolutely abhor it.
