omg its AWESOME!
I love strategy games so much! Playing it is a joy for me...
Now that I know if works on my pc (On lowest settings it runs very very well...I don't care for graphics in RTS games) I'm going to go preorder the Kane edition tomorrow...
Very large and fun demo and unlike generals it stays fairly true to the C&C franchice...
Currently my only gripe (and many others) is the left click right click configuration...The fools!
I also have never understood how the tiberium lost the pods that it used to have in all the other tiberium games :? Its just crystals now...

But its very fun and I'm glad I can play a new C&C game again

Tiberium always was a crystalline substance...it may not have looked like it due to graphical limitations, but it's always been "just crystals".

Further reading on tiberium: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberium

On another note, I am curious to see the Scrin, and I was rather disappointed that the Mammoth MkII has been deemed obsolete. I know the MkIII replaces it and all, but I just loved the novelty of having a giant walking tank. :P

'

Play tiberium dawn...
The picture provided in the wikipedia article shows the pods... The pods have roots, "Tiberium will release underground shoots in every direction, which will then grow into Tiberium proper"...

But yes, further reading proved that is an early stage or tiberium, they appear as rocks or soil until they fade away into ""just crystals""


As for the MKII, I disliked that...I also kinda dislike the current mammoth...Its good, but not nearly as awesome as all the other mammoths in every other C&C game. Doesnt seem pwoerful enough...Unlike the Mechs (Titans or whatever)! :D THEY OWN!


I look forward to being evil with NOD...Not so much Scrin, that doesnt totally interest me...But I will play the entire SP game through...Maybe a conclusion! (Or some form of one)

The game is EXTREMELY responsive on the very highest graphics settings I throw at it, and it loads VERY quickly...

I LOVE IT. The storyline, everything...AAAH! The cutscenes are beautiful because they're a blend of real life and good 3d. I am buying this game the minute it comes out.

Everyone know about the Nod hack? To play as Nod, open the menu with the factions, put your mouse on Nod, push N, click, and push N again.

You can do the same with the GDI for the enemy.

Especially since you can't kill the messiah :D

I'd pay for it...But I'm considering not because of the poor graphics on my machine...Sure graphics don't matter, but the game is dull and unnatractive and I could possibly purchace it for the 360...time will tell...Plus its released the day before my birthday :D

On a side note: did anyone check out the c&c3 wallpaper winners? I think they suck! The notable mentions are good but the winners are bad...Check it out at their site.
