What's next after RA3? I personally think C&C is dead.

Who knows, EA might make another C&C game based on Generals or they might reconsider doing Tiberium (the FPS game) again.
Or they have yet to make an expansion to RA3.

RA3 includes a beta key for the RA3 expansion: Kossar's Helmit".

Besides the inevitable expansion pack to Red Alert 3, speculation is ongoing that it's Generals 2.

When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris is the reason why Waldo is hiding.

The obvious next game would be Generals 2, but there are also a lot of rumors going around for a second FPS or an entire new universe completely. There is even a rumor about the next game being an MMO, going along with Mike Verdu saying "the next game will be heavily mulitplayer involved" or something along those lines.

Generals has sort of been "pushed aside" it seems. EA is pretty good at 'surprise' announcements (C&C3, RA3, BCPT, ect all came out of nowhere), so I'm not going to expect Generals.

I'm hoping for a Renegade 2.

Wait, you're saying that there's going to be an entirely different game, probably having nothing to do with the C&C universe whatsoever?

I don't expect a Generals game at all. Generals was a test for the engine they have now been milking. Smth different would be good. When playing RA3, I had a huge déjà vu.

Mike Verdu said to definitely expect Generals sometime in the future. When in the future, we don't know.

I doubt that they would of brought up Generals on BCPT if it was the next game in the list. When they make a Generals 2, it will probably be a sudden surprise announcement like C&C3 was.

And @ Bluethen: I'm not saying that the next C&C game will not have anything to do with C&C, I'm simply saying that there is a chance that it will be:
-A brand new C&C universe
-A brand new C&C type of game (Like an MMO)
-Or revisiting the FPS realm (Ala Renegade 2)

Generals was actually one of the C&C that required some better micro,macro.

Generals itself was ok. But it wasn't C&C. It still should have had a way better story though...

I was watching KW ladder season on Battlecast and in the end they said 2009 will have 2 major C&C announcements from EA.

In Love

So RA3 expansion and 1 other game?

Generals... a "good game?"

Generals is the absolute worst seriously made game I've ever seen. (Big Rigs and similar failures don't qualify)

Forget it being a good C&C game, it was just a horrible game in general (pun not intended)

C'mon what are your reasons for it being such a bad horrible game?

Many reasons as to why Generals is awesome has already been discussed in this thread:

100% agree and also agree with the AOE 2 comparision.

It is one of the best unique RTS I ever played. Not to mention that it was C&C's first 3D RTS and the gameplay, tactics, strategy is all there! So why dislike it?

I only did not like the storyline. I would give it 5 stars. If there is a Generals 2, then I would be most happy but hope there are no terrorists and no commies. The whole terrorists/commies have been so overdone even the aliens watching us would be quite bored to death.

Why not they come up with a faction that is based in Africa with exotic technologies? They could have Elephant heavy tanks and Madagascar bombers! LOL? I should write EA with these new ideas...but meh, they would seek to continue the same storyline.

I wanted RA3 with Nazi's. Since EA seems so intent on having a disregard for things that cannot be possible in the Red Alert timeline (like Japan) I figured it'd make equal sense to have the Nazi's exist in RA3- since Einstein was eliminated, Hitler in turn was not, tl;dr making Nazi Germany still a world power.

Faction could be made super awesomely too, with all the witchcraft and Nazi magic that fiction likes to attribute to the Nazis, and also various real technologies Hitler was working on such as the Land Battleship and jet fighters.

One thing I'd want though, while the rest of the game could be cheeky as fuck and I wouldn't care, the Nazi faction would have to be SCARY. Not corny-laugh-about-it scary, but real, shit-your-pants-at-how-menacing-and-truly-evil-the-nazi-characters-are scary.

The Soviets don't know who Hitler is at the time they go back in time to eliminate Einstien. They go back in time to a date after Einstein already took out Hitler. That's why when the Soviets get back, Nazis don't exist and Japan had no one to stop them from gaining power. It's also the reason why the Chronosphere still exists.

Why couldn't it be possible for the Rising Sun to become a super power?

But the thing is, even with removing Einstein, according to RA2 World War II in the Pacific at least partially happened which would have destroyed/weakened the Japanese enough not to be a goddamn Empire like in RA3. At the very least, it wouldn't be such a SHOCKING CRAZY INSANE SUPRISE that the Japanese are powerful in RA3, considering the Allies would have already fought them. It's also really gay. I think Japan as a faction was a shitty idea, as there were so many other badass alternatives.


yeah
