I find you guilty of shift-key abuse, using "Nod" as an acronym, writing an obscenely long run-on sentence, egregious stupidity, and spelling "LASER" with a Z. How do you plead?

Why would he need to plead when you already found him guilty?

Tiberium will appeal to alot of people, just like any other game, it might not be a super hit with us die hand Renegade players, but for other FPS players, am sure they will like it.
I'm expecting it to be hit.

Thank you! My sentiments exactly...if Renegade has 15,000 gamers TODAY, then that is still a small minority lol compared to the MILLIONS of FPS gamers across the world.
Tiberium may not be appleaing to the 15,000 but it will for the millions...who need a newer way of playing FPS.
I am sure EA can come up with some sort of AI balancing, as Fobby mentioned that concern...too many dumb AI = fail!
Also SADLY, i learned that NO VEHICLES to drive...thats BULL as vehicles are now a necessary feature in modern FPS games but let's see...also I don;t know about Nod. But this is only now and EA is busy with RA3 now.
What we will know is that this will become a real hit, lots of cash for EA, lots of addicted gamers, clans, 1v1's...blah blah...so it will be success.
And to those saying it won;t replace Ren...ROFL...it is not made to replace ren (thanks Surth)...
TT team will make W3D Renegade live forever...guranateeing firm player base for the future.
Ren X team will make the remake and this will attract more players.
Tiberium will be another one...I see all 3 as living on for a long time.
For sure, I know that Tiberium won't fail like Doom 3 (lols).
notE: Sorry about the poor arse grammer i am eating pizza.

I doubt any game will last as long as renegade(6 years and still going) unless it has a completely innovative gameplay, by the looks of Tiberium it is not innovative or new one bit, so I do not see it living longer.

People still play the original Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame LOLS...and that was released in 1994!
People still play original Doom/Doom 2 and a community thrives...lol....
There are other games that lasts long...people still play Tetris too lols.
And this one lol: Halo: CE released in 2001...MANY still play!
NOTE: I am sure Tiberium won't be a failure and it will be as big as Halo...EA is a huge company...sure all are profit driven but does not mean they turn out crap all the time. See, they listend to fans about RA3 and changed the Apoc tank and made it look cooler! So, such a company won;t necessarily betray it's gamers for a couple more $$$. I am sure once this RA3 is out of the way, EA will turn it's attention to Tiberium.
I think Tiberium will be like RA3...they alreayd announce it and set it aside while they work on RA3. Remeber they announce RA3 in 2004 and worked on C&C3??...so likewise, once RA3 is out of the way, Tiberium will get attention.
Renegade is a great game but gamers have changed over the years. Everydone wants to have a chance to be an MVP generally. You can't if you are repairing vechs even if you are crucial to the whole winning...some gamers don't like that. Halo proved it too...eveyrone wants to be at the front lines flying, driving a tank, shooting a sniper rifle, or a assult rifle, or manning a turret..
I think it is this part of Ren that did not appeal to many + the poor reviews and bland graphics. The ones who play Ren (me too!) are the survivors who played the game and liked it...many don't. I hope Ren X will solve this problem and the remkake should attract better attention and more player base while W3D Ren will be even stronger with TT patches.

Halo wasn't released in 2001, man. It was released late 2002 on Xbox, and I believe the Computer Edition came even later.
The games you've named have all received high sales, lots of advertisement and popularity. Renegade on the other hand was never advertised properly (EA was too busy advertising MOH:AA which came out nearly the same time as Renegade) and didn't have a large number of sales. Not to mention the various downgrades that it has that we don't see in games like Halo CE. But despite all of this, Renegade's still outlived games that have received a lot of attention and high sales.
-Despite the no support from EA
-Despite the lack of a sequel
-Despite its sub-par graphics
-Despite its problems with cheaters
-Despite its lack of sales
-Despite its very average single player experience
-Despite its bugs

Oh don't get me started on RA3 I think that game is a complete joke and wrecks the series in my eyes(everything can go in the water even the engineer WTF? what is the use of having water now?) and don't even get me started about "Tasha".

I know I didn't mention it but I'm more thinking of shooters at the monment.
Anyways if there would be any game that had a chance to last a few years to me it would be Diablo 3(when it comes out), Diablo 2 still kicks ass.

Here's a shooter that's still being played... just a few months shy of a decade after release, still running thanks to community-provided master servers. The granddaddy of all combined arms strategic shooters such as Renegade, as a matter of fact. I suspect that Tribes still lives for pretty much the same reason Renegade does (and will continue to): a rabid core of fans who acknowledge the game's flaws but think it kicks ass anyway and don't care how dated the graphics are.
For that matter, Battlefield 1942 still has a significant following, though it isn't anywhere near as popular since BF2 and 2142. Likewise with Counterstrike, for the same reasons. Still, the fact that either is still around at all should tell you something. Both of those would be your mainstream examples. It really isn't all that easy to kill a game as long as it has a dedicated community behind it. IMHO, all the proof we should ever need that Renegade will outlive Tiberium and anything else EA puts out under the C&C brand was handed to us when these forums passed into community hands. I'd lay good odds that Tiberium will be extremely popular, but it will never enjoy the level of community devotion that Renegade has.
