Star Gate eat your heart out! I like the portals, which probably serve as a kind of war factory.

Looks good.

Another fellow StarGate fan? That is also what I thought when I saw the portal.

I like Stargate. Only SG-1 though. I hate SGA.

I am the only one who thinks the Scrin buildings look Mordor inspired?

They have the 'building powers' like in Red Alert, looks like a radar scan, paratroopers and bombing run.

From what I hear, there will be no Generals powers in C&C 3.

I bet they will be a bit like the GLA, resourceful and based on flexibilty, quantity, and playing with extra cards up the sleeve.

Although they could do a Protoss on us and make them inflexible, powerful and micro-reliant.

Woops, just read that Predator asked not to post the videos just yet. Sorry about that.

I'm really looking forward to hearing the feedback from the summit. According to Predator players were ignoring Joe Kucan over their shoulder because they were having too much fun :)

I'm not sure if I'd like that. I think superpowers and Generals powers that give you something like an SW are kinda overpowered, too easy and too damaging. Something small like repair a few vehicles or a radar scan I would not mind though.

I doubt that they would do that, allow you to build the Mammoth mk II. As far a generals powers go, anything like Red Alert 2 would be cool with me. Capturing a building to get paratroops was fine with me.

I hope that they leave out the gen-powers. They're a Generals-universe-thing jsut as the Tesla-Coils belong to the RA-Universe. Building-based special powers are okay though. We had those in past games and it was fine.

I don't think they will add general's powers since they were actually made for Generals. And powers wouldn't fit in C&C at all. C&C Doesn't have that "General" feeling that much. The General's Promotion was added in generals , to give you the feeling like you're a general, and that is the "general feeling"

CnC Generals and ZH was more an experiment that went horribly wrong at it appears that EA is going to make up for their mistakes in Geberals/ZH.

nova, they said that they might return sub-terrean units in the expansion. Of course there is going to be an expansion.

Wha?

As for subterranean units, they're working on making them implementable where they're fun, balanced, and doesn't require you to spend 10 mins pavementing your base. :D

Command & Conquer Renegade never had an expansion made for it.


As for the look of the aliens: they kind of remind me of Nod/CABAL's Cyborg Reapers from Firestorm. Some of the larger units look to be based off some early C&C Generals concept art. Take the "swarmling" as an example.
