New C&C coming to social networks



With the seeming end of C&C, We all know that the EA-- "the demon gaming company" raped and killed the C&C on purpose because of money. But however, EA decided to revive the C&C series one more time by creating a social network game called "Tiberium Alliances" which is obviously from Tiberium universe. I doubt that they may give quality C&C to us gamers since the "changes" it took. The quality C&C I may like to try is Generals 2-- which featured on VGA 2011 "World Premiere".


As I watched the video, The starting intro, as usual, some of it are recycled (EA logo, hill scenes, and particularly, units) and the gameplay is cool though. But with recent history of EA pulling our legs, I may call shenanigans on their part since it is only a beta and needlessly to say, I don't trust them.

To prevent another disaster, they may try some following changes-- including my opinion about it:

  • It may be improved by following the opinions of beta testers and common gamers. 
  • Company policy, anyone?
  • Avoid rushing, they always like rushing their works.
  • "Inexperienced always leads the more experienced", now I know there are many screw-ups in game industry because of so-called "Managers" bosses their employees who knows how to game. Hell, they don't even play at all! So change it and hire some competent managers! 
  • Lessen it's price. I don't care if they make it thirty or forty bucks but they should make it decent enough to be enjoyable.
  • Beta! don't forget to make betas. 
  • Don't even try to fools us!


They also said that it's free to play but I'm not crossing my finger a bit!

Is BioWare Working On Mercs Inc? How About Command & Conquer?

Is BioWare Working On Mercs Inc? How About Command & Conquer?

"Is this rumor true?" I don't know yet. But perhaps the Bioware will take hold of the franchise instead of crappy EA. As we all know that EA killed the Command and Conquer series since they bought the Westwood for $3.4 million claiming the rights and credits of creating the C&C series.

I doubt the Bioware can have a permission to create the next C&C game since the rights of it is on the hands of EA. However, the Bioware studios is under the EA company, so they may have the chance to create the game and improve it. But there are the chance that the EA would ride on their success and rake some money like they did on some games under them.

It is also stated by Mr. Nirolak on twitter that the Next C&C will be shooter, it is unconfirmed whether it's FPS or third person.

"Basically: mysterious BioWare game probably is a shooter developed at EALA previously known as Mercs Inc."

I just hope that this Command and Conquer is not a crap like the previous creation of EA-- so called C&C 4. Hell, if this is the revival of the greatness of C&C franchise, I would buy it. But for now, I would stick to C&C 3: Kane's Wrath.
