I'll believe it when I see it in official lettering.

Getting a bit sick of these rumours now, TBH. If you are going to say something, then at least back it up with some links, guys.

No nukes? Who could think of such a thing?

I still refuse to believe they would remove an iconic superweapon from the Soviets.

Probably going to be a big Tesla missile that zaps everything on impact.

*edit*

Maybe it'll have bolts that travel from unit to unit like those water fountains at Epcot. :P

It's as bogus as "Red Alert 3 isn't a Command & Conquer because EA didn't say so".

Yes, there were morons who actually believed Red Alert 3 wasn't a C&C because EA announced it simply as "Red Alert 3". Sad, but people who are taken in by information like that are the fools who fall for pyramid schemes and send their credit card details via email.

The glass is half empty.

So far SC2 looks like it will have a ton of new units, upgrades, etc. So I wouldn't exactly say that.


actually as far i can see, half of the new units are old units with a new model, and the actually real original units are beging droped, last i hear is they wanted to drop the Thor, to me as far as i know starcraft 2 looks more a expansion pack

The only gripe I have with SC 2 is the Banshee and the Viking.

Dammit I hate politics.

Might also to avoid having 2 universes with bad guys who are like "OMG NUKES!"

Wonder what they'll get instead?

If there is no nuke, then RA3 is not RA :P

Hopefully, if there is no nuke, there shall be an anti matter bomb...

The nuke in C&C 3 looked crap so I'd rather have something else instead of a nuke that looks like that.

The nuke has been in more CnC games than Kane himself, how could they (if it is true) get rid of it.
Fun fact: The nuke was in every game except Tiberian Sun (and sole survivor?)

Please Nova, don't use excessive font size to tell us something we already know.

It's a shame to lose the nuke but if it wasn't done I'm sure people would complain EA are being lazy and re-using old ideas.

Actually, I'd like to differ that point Dauth. Nukes have been used by the Russians in Red Alert for so long, it's almost like having Kane head up Nod. Not having a nuke in RA = not having Kane in the Tiberian universe. People just expect it to be there.

Actually, I believe that the nuke has been in every game one way or another(even Tiberian sun, as I remember that the superweapon of NoD was the Nuke, maybe a Cluster missile nuke).

I dont see why there is a big problem with Japan as the third faction? They put Yuri in as the third one in RA2. And RA2 had a couple of big issues in my opinion that could have been avoided.
