Well, I diddnt think walls was such a big deal untill I started playing, after being rushed by suicide bombers and having some guys run right through my defences, I really think their neccisays.

My number problem with the game is due to the fact I have dual monitors, this sadly is the first 3d environment game that somehow hasn't locked off the ability to drag your mouse off to the other screen. This is very wierd and I can't see a reaosn behind it other than the fact EA forgot people use more than one monitor sometimes. Everytime I want to look left I must do so with the mouse right click rather than just moving the mouse in that direction.
|
I run dual monitors as well and I like having the ability to click off screen. Most of the time I have Msn chat windows open on my second monitor, and I like to be able to click in them and have the game minimize.

I knew they took the walls out but I never used them so I didn't realize they were a big deal.

you said yourself that you never really played rts games...
Maybe we would have been better off if someone who did play a lot of TD and TS etc. That way EA would have gotten proper comments on it..

Instead, all people do is bitch at EA and act like idiots. I don't understand how they think they will get EA to do something or their opinions will be heard if they act like jack ass's all the time.

I don't see why everyone compares it to Generals. To me it seems like Firestorm with fancy pictures.
I like the cranes and really could care less about the walls myself. Fast build times is good. Keeps the game moving.

My game gets this demogame.dat error after playing for some time...
Have anyone ever tried the scrin? you lose immediately after the match starts lol.
|
For some reason this happens to me as well when I try to run on the lowest settings, maybe putting everything up one notch will help if you run it at low settings(that's what I did).

Not to mention it puts you at the mercy of how fast you can move your mouse and click, which really has little to do with strategy at all.

Well you can say whatever you want as to whether or not I was qualified to attend the summit, but there were about 30 people there, many of them very experienced RTS players, and no one brought up walls as a big deal to my recollection. I'm pretty sure it was mentioned, and EA explained why they weren't in, and that was the end of it.
We have tried to convey the different experience and perspective of the game that we got from talking to several of the developers and seeing where they all work and talk about what they have done. When you see the number of people who contributed to this, the research and attention to detail they used, and see how all the small pieces come together, you're less likely to act like an idiot and go "Huuurrrrr no walls this game fucking SUCKS omg ea wtf srsly!"
Instead, how about NOT insulting people and go post on the C&C3 forums your opinion in a polite and mature way and perhaps they will listen and add walls in as part of a patch?
I'm the bawss.

This game is just another rush fest. No other good strategy is possible but to rush in with 10 tanks and win.

Why would you want to play a game that has the EXACT same strategies as the older games? Why is so bad for a game to evolve and keep up with the times? If we just want a copy of Red Alert with better graphics on a better engine, then make a mod!

I can't speak for everyone who takes issue with the new game, but for my part it isn't so much that I want a game with the same strategies as the one before as it is that I want a game with more than one strategy. Rushing is going to be the dominant strategy in C&C3, more so than it ever was before, and it is going to be an uncommon round that even reaches the 30 minute mark. No new strategies are added for all the ones that are taken away; arguing that wanting them back is wanting the same old game is like taking away three of your car's wheels then, when you buy a new car and want four wheels, being asked if you want four so that it can be just like the one you had before with a shiny new paint job. I could see making that argument if C&C3 already had in it the potential to succeed using even most of the strategies that were possible before, but it just doesn't.
