CNC Generals $1000 Tournament

CNC GENERALS TOURNAMENT
2 v 2 Tournament
It's with great pleasure that today we can finally announce the plans for the $1000 that was generously donated by Merce to the CNC Generals community. So, to get straight to the point the winning clan of May's Clanwars competition will receive the full $1000 to split amongst the clan!
So, even if you have not played Generals in a long time or perhaps not even at all, this is one hell of a good reason to start. It's so simple just sign up and create your clan or join one with friends and you will have a chance to win $1000.
Of course, if you're worried that you will be too rusty, then don't worry as you still have the rest of April to warm up and get ready for May: 31 days and 1000 reasons to play!

Yeah but generals is a classic The newer games just don't seem to do it for me and I have tried pretty much them all at some point. But generals is a game you can keep playing for ages and not get bored, then if you do get bored you can just install a new mod and it freshens it up :-)
This is pretty much an attempt to attract more players into playing online again as recently its died off a bit (more than usual ) seems to have had a good reception so far though and their are many players who are going to dust of generals .
For those who enjoy Vgenerals then it should be a good month and if it gets the activity up online im sure some of the old mods might receive a boost in interest as well

Generals not boring? Common you must be joking, without mods I find Generals pretty lame, it wasn't really groundbreaking in the C&C franchise besides the fact you could build everywhere this time. <That, plus the fact the entire game is being hold together by a duck taped game engine which is probably more bugged that anything else. To be honest, Shockwave is what prevented ZH from being removed from my HDD altogether.

Have you tried playing against some good generals players online? Its where the game really shines, the single player lacks and yes the engine is buggy but the balance is almost flawless between strong players and you get some really exciting games and the inclusion of generals points, tactical upgrades and secondary abilities really makes the game hard to master and very addictive when you get into it, replays are actually fun to watch with generals If you don't believe me I would be happy to recommend a few that would probably entertain ^^
I didn't always have this opinion.. I first played generals in 2004 and HATED it, but then in 2007 got the first decade and ventured onto ccg online and got sucked in

Gotta echo OD here, hope you get a good turnout guys. I'm sure despite the complaints you'll get on or two people from FS to have a bash at this.

While some of the diehards still play Vgens. This would have attracted alot more interest if it featured ZH and or a well balanced mod.

What a load of crap! Vanilla Generals is still an amazing game and there is little wrong with the engine for the game itself. That it poses problems for modability totally isn't the topic. It's that every bad thing about it gets emphasized into eternity
I see if some of the players that do appreciate Generals can make an estudios clan

1000 dollars as a prize? Damn Still, I won't enter: my online skills are too bad, and I only play with mods...
Chyros 13 Apr 2009
Well good luck, any who participate - remember I'll hold the winners to what they said in the "what if someone gave you $900" .

Good luck Mr. Players, i'm certainly not good enough to play for cash prizes, but to all those competing, good luck!
ScotlanD™ 13 Apr 2009
Well thank you guys for the responses anyway, would be great to see someone of you compete and play against you online Their will be further announcement closer to may including a written interview with the fan who donated the money.
Also I was wondering what mods you guys have for generals, are their still some being made? As I am currently talking it over with other admins of gamereplays but I think they would be willing to support any generals projects at least which would probably get a few players for your mods if it help at all off course

All of our modifications are for Zero Hour, the best we offer Generals wise is the SWR project C&C Classic which puts Generals into the slightly more advanced ZH engine. Some of your plays may want to investigate it.
ScotlanD™ 13 Apr 2009
Well we have a zh community as well zh clanwar is actually much more active than Vgenerals just now, about 100 players probably.
Dauth 13 Apr 2009
Slightly neutral and informative articles on all of our ZH modifications are here on the FSDB http://wiki.cncreneclips.com/wiki/List_of_...als_-_Zero_Hour some might be of interest.

Good luck on your tournament. Too bad I am busy with WC3 right now or I'd play CCG CW (can't be that much diff from ZH xD).
For everyone that has something against CCG, it is a great game still, mods are shiny but only 0.1% of mods have had better gameplay/balance than the original (barring balance mods), gameplay is what players want, especially for a $1,000 prize.
And TBH, there is no mod hosted on FS that I'd recommend for a competition right now (speaking about public versions, many mods are probably much more developed with internal builds).
