Generals was by far one of the most superior games of the Command and Conquer series, if the sequel is anything like the first it's already great.

Only thing about Generals is that it had a C&C title.

If it didn't have that I'd be more than happy with it, but that's just a pet peeve tbh.

Otherwise, it's pretty good. Zero Hour, while questionable on balance, added some pretty interesting unit concepts.

EDIT: Checked out the video in that link - If that was gameplay, they could be onto something. I'll be watching this to see if something interesting comes of it.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

It'll use DICE's Frostbite 2 engine..... if that means no mods/maps, I would expect an interesting reaction from the community.

Generals was as related to C&C as starcraft is. True C&C died after tiberian sun, tbh Sad

C&C 1 and Red Alert 1 are both classics in my mind. The only thing that would have made the original perfect would have been Skirmish.

Tiberian Sun was good, and RA2 was a blast. Things went a bit downhill after this point. Generals was good but not really a C&C, and C&C 3 tried too hard to be like the older games and fell on it's head. RA3 is just WTF and C&C 4 aint worth talking about.

Ra2 was very good to the c&c forumula as well as c&c 3. c&c 4 is what killed it. even the story went away from the original forumla. what a waste of money

i find it funny that c&c 4 was what westwood wanted for tiberian sun but everyone seems to forget that.

The thing is that eala screwed with the original idea and made it all emcompassing when it was only supposed to be certain units that were mobile (WF, Cyard) and other things built like normal.

Anyway, Genearls is my favorite c&c.

i dont undestand how people say generals isn't c&c, i hope they realize Red Alert wasn't considered c&c when it first came out either and the ant missions, the dinosaurs, the x-packs.

Generals is C&C because it was made by the orignal c&c team, yet people tend to overlook that. General was first and foremost a westwood idea, a lot of the concepet art was pre-EA.

I've been wanting c&c g 2 for so long, even before c&c 4 and ra3. it should've gone ra 2 then generals 2 but whatever. The main thing i'm happy here is i know bioware does quality and wont just push out some unfinished, unfun crap and try to make us play it (ala c&c 4)

zero hour is one of the most fun games ever. generals challenge is excellent, how is it that no other game ever touched this formula?

joint operations is the only thing I've ever seen like genearls and i loved/love joint op

You know what?

We all know the most imporant bit is that they get all the offensive steriotypes right, with such gems as...

Paladin Tank - "We fight for peace!" "Preserving Freedom!" "It's the right thing to do!"
Nuke Cannon - "Brighter than ze SUN!"
Overlord Tank - "This is the overlord tank, I am Big" (Nothing subtle there)

And who can for get... the TERRORIST

That game was great more cause all of the little things than just the gameplay  Grin

Also...

AK-47's!!! FOR EVERYONE!!!

Ra2 is the best. Tiberian Sun had so much potential. I get the feeling the FB2 engine will be like an updated TibSun voxel engine, at least I hope.

I want them to remake the first 2 c&c games, (well maybe all of them especially "tiberian twilight") with some real direction.
