EA to Release Command & Conquer Generals 2 in 2013

Cant EA just let this corpse rot in peace? Day 1 DLC, and knowing bioware, its going to be plenty of gay romance

i'll take Generals every day over that tiberian-robot-alien crap and the like

Zero Hour FTW

I hope this is as good, if it is, it will be epic with the updated visuals and such....if they don't release with all the tweaked armies, maybe another add-on like zero hour at least.


Best CnC ever, best RTS ever.

I am really put off by the way so many RTSes make their races or factions almost identical. C&C & red alert are great examples. Possibly the best thing about Blizzard RTSes is the racial variation.

That's what makes Generals the best Westwood RTS - faction variation. There are no shared units and the races play very differently - GLA doesn't even have air.

I got a chuckle. I just had the discussion last night with a friend who JUST got his Zero Hour to work the other day finally. Great game, but flaky on way too many platforms.

China, do not forget me!

Did they ever fix the Zero Hour crashes?

 

[darkavenger123]

I agree...Generals was a good game...but Zero Hours was great...for years, my wife keep asking me why i am not bored with the game....i told her i need to bomb Saddam....haha. And yes, Tiberium Twilight was utter garbage, not worth the disc it was printed on.

"Begging for a return" eh? I remember years ago C&C loyalists were rather unenthuastic I should say about this game. I guess over time more people came around to liking this. Well I guess with the Tiberium universe being done with (right?) they aren't all that angry with this series.

[citation][nom]killabanks[/nom]sorry but Syria is a joke if they had to include someone from the middle east they are better off with Iran or Egypt they both have much stronger armies[/citation]

Ok, I understand that Iran is string, I was supposed to mention it 😛 but don't underestimate Syria, it is strong, actually it is equal to Egypt, am an Arabian dude, so I know about their forces, Making a faction called Middle east or something like GLA will be good... 😀

[citation][nom]ap3x[/nom]SupCom 1 is one of, if not the best of all time when it comes to scale and strategic depth. That game was nuts, but the learning curve was steep because of the economy.CNC Generals though was just good plain fun. Nuclear Migs knocking tanks clear off the screen.....yea I am game for that again.[/citation]
I agree. SupCom 1 (or Forged Alliance) was a solid game. I too liked to play from both a great distance or up close. Games that had a very low ceiling caused me to rapidly lose my patience

Haha waited so long for this game... Step down SC2, make way for Gen2! I just hope they don't screw or anything. I'm quite convinced Gen2 is C&C's last chance to redeem itself after the mishap of RA3 and the epic failure of C&C4. Can't wait! xD

uh, Blizzard RTSs definitely don't have as much racial variation as Generals.

In Generals, if you run an infantry units into a pathfinder, you die.

In SC and Warcraft, if you run units into their counter units, there's still a good chance u can turnaround and leave.

Not to say which is better, but Blizzard RTSs definitely are not more varied...

i read that it would only have 3 factions GLA, EU, and i don't know about the 3rd, they didn't said what was it, but im guessing another "scrin", hopefully they add more in future updates or future expansion packs

 

[Guest]

hi all i wish theyd make a complete C&C with all factions ever created with 1 type of money sorce would love kane v china or gla or yuri mamoth tank v overloard lol or even scrin v usa just 2 fantise independance day lol

I pray this wont be a bad game like the last two in the C@C world if this one is bad then it might be the last we hear of any new C@C games look at what happened with RedFaction
