The songs are there to create a complete atmosphere. The RA-atmosphere is so different from the C&C-atmosphere.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I've seen many C&C 3 trailers and I don't recall any of them using Hell March.
In my opinion, Hell March ONLY belongs to Red Alert. It gives Red Alert that Red Alert atmosphere. I can't see how it could blend into the Tiberian Universe.

Frankly I don't care too much about C&C 3, as I prefer Shooters over Strategy games.
I own all of the C&C Games in their official disks (not that first decade crap) and it is the game series I have loved most as a kid, and even now as a teenager.
However the C&C game I enjoyed most was Renegade. That's because it mixes my love for the series and my favourite genre. Personally, I'd prefer a new Renegade over even three new RTS games. And I'm saying this as a deep, "from the start" fan of the series.

Yeah as I said, I've grown up with the series. I've played each of the C&C games thousands of times, which means the vast majority of my C&C time is playing the RTS games. I just find Renegade to be the funnest of them all, because it takes the C&C series to ground level. You fight you enemies face to face instead of hovering above them.
Most FPS don't require any mind power, take CS as an example. You just walk around and shoot on instict. Part of the reason why I liked this game was the amount of strategy and organization required in a clanwar (repair buddies, flankers, long ranged groups, distractions, rushes, etc). So you're basically using your mind a lot as well, trying to figure out ways to get passed their forces, clear the field, or strike their base directly.
What EA needs to do is recreate a new FPS, but not repeat the numberous problems and mistakes they've made in Renegade. It's a great concept until now, if a sequal was executed properly I think it would be a big hit.

Nope. I love Renegade. It's just been almost a year since I played it, but I'll get back to it sometime soon.

You know that Frank wrote Hell March during the production of the Covert Ops, right? I'd say sure, it's more of a Red Alert feel, but it's not entirely inspired by Red Alert. It's the exact opposite, really.

At a minumum they need to release an importer plugin and a map editor/worldbuilder. I see no techical reason why they cant include the same map editor, importer plugin, w3d viewer and tools as they used internally right there on the CD (given what was done for then the BFME2 SDK, the changes required to make them releaseable would probobly be minimal)
Even if EA dont release an importer, I am sure people will try and use the BFME2 SDK with it (like the renegade SDK being used for Generals)
|
From what I gathered at our dinner last night, the game will almost certainly include a worldbuilder in the initial release. The rest would come shortly thereafter if not better. There are several modding communities represented at this thing, so I'm sure they wouldn't have invited so many of them if they were going to let them all down.
I'm the bawss.

Hopefully they'll combine the Tiberian Sun and Red Alert(2) options for Skirmishes. I liked how you could randomize the Tib Sun environments, which is something RA2 could have used. But at the same time, RA2 let you choose the type, color, and location of your enemies, not to mention create allies, which Tib Sun could have used. If Tiberian Wars has both, or if EA or someone releases a patch to incorporate the missing elements into the older games (very unlikely), I'll be very happy.
