C&C Generals 2
« on: December 12, 2011, 01:08:56 AM »


PC exclusive even!

Generals was one of the few games to play with modern warfare and future warfare "realities" by including legitly hilarious and fun terrorists and having China instead of Russia as the commie faction. I really enjoyed the game and it got better with zero hour... I really hope they keep the campy flavor of ZH.. which was the best C&C game/expansion since Yuri's imo.

Discuss.

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

With Bioware's recent history of games, I can't help but think of this comic:

I hope EA don't fapp this up like they do everything else...

I stopped playing C&C games after Zero Hour because, imo, they sucked...

[rage]
C&C3 was unbalanced and stupid... and why does everything have to have 3 factions... Aliens in C&C3 and Japan in RA??? WTF!
And forced coop was SO F***ing stupid!!!!!
[/rage]

Ok. Blood pressure under control. I probably will not play Generals 2 if I smell even a wiff of EA's meddling in it. That said, I am hungry to fill that RTS hole that nothing since Generals has been able to fit.

EDIT: I hope for the best but don't hold much hope...

Eh, not sure it was EA's fault too much... they published Yuri's, Generals, and Zero Hour... but yeah C&C3 was alright... never played RA3 or C&C4 cause they looked trashy.

Only thing I'm worried about is them using Frostbite 2.  I hope they come up with a usable map editor for us map makers unlike DICE with BF3.

Had no problem with that so far with BF3. Now I hate EA with a passion but it's never stopped me buying some of their games that are worth buying.

Origin is just shite. But hopefully it won't be an Origin exclusive. If it is, oh well Origin is already installed on PC anyway....

So true. I wish I still had it.

From what I've heard, at least it's not Renegade.

Hey man, don't diss Renegade. It was horrible in execution yes, but the concept for multilayer is a dream unto this day.  8)
