And plus, if EA actually decided to go ahead with a C&C mode after recognizing this petition, they'd have to delay the game for a significant time, and the release would likely be very buggy, and not enjoyable to play.
|
With an EA game, what's the difference? 
Anyway, you guys don't seem to be grasping the concept. Tiberium doesn't have the "C&C" title because it's an entirely different game. Sure, it has the very same story as the rest of the franchise, but it just means it's not an RTS game.
|
Renegade had the Command & Conquer prefix, and that wasn't a rts either 
|
True, but Westwood knew what they were doing, yeah?

EA promises new and innovative. Unlike have the human wastes on this forum, I can cling to hope that EA won't botch this because what they've done isn't NEARLY as bad as anyone makes it out to be.
To the OP: Quit your bitching. You have only 150 signitures (Weighed against EA's projected sales for Tiberium), and you have no clue what EA has planned for Tiberium. Neither do I. None of us do. Which is why I'm going to buy us all a pint of STFU.
It's the same bullshit on the StarCraft 2 forums. "ZOMG DID U C DA NEW DARK TEMPLAR WTF I H8 BLIZZURD UNLES DEY CHANGE DIS!!1!". Shut up. Just shut up. They have professional game designers, and you're just some snotty kid.
It's about time for this thread to get Heated-Discussioned, I think.

Obviously you have not read all of the articles and Apoc's posts. Sure we don't know exactly what to expect here, and I am looking at this game with an open mind. I'm not concluding that "it sucks" because I have not played the game.
However from the amount of information released, this game doesn't really satisfy me. It's basically a Battlefield game; except replace the spawn points with Tiberium spikes, replace your teammates with an AI squad, and replace the artillery with superweapons.
I'll still try it out and give Tiberium a chance, though. I thought Battlefield 2 was fun for a few weeks, but I ended up coming back to Renegade (and so did the rest of my clan). I think this game will be the same way.
What got our hopes up were the numerous rumours that EA was working on a C&C Renegade 2, and then when Apoc posted here on the Renegade forums. But considering this game has nothing to do with Renegade, and doesn't even have a C&C title, it makes me wonder why Apoc came here.
I do agree that people need to stop bitching so much, though. If you want to play C&C mode, just continue playing C&C Renegade and support the mods that have that mode. I know that's what I'll be doing.

If I'm a shareholder of Electronic Arts, I'd be pretty pissed if the company decided to chase a small community, and embrace a style of gameplay that just wasn't, and still isn't, that popular.
EA is simply going after a popular, and lucrative market, because they are a major company, and that is what competitive companies do...

I don't mind the sound of a squad based game, I liked Freedom Fighters. It also sounds kinda cool that there will be support powers and stuff. But, it would also be nice to have a C&C mode in the game as well. It doesn't have to be strictly C&C mode and only C&C mode. But it would make the multiplayer a whole lot more fun to have it available.

EA Has no right to rip away Command and Conquer just like that and they most deffinatly Do not deserve to milk the Tiberian Franchise for every penny.

Last time I checked EA owned the rights to the C&C franchise, so they do have the rights to do anything they want.

It's perfectly clear to me, as I've already said. The community had led itself on by the false promise of Renegade 2. Not a promise made by EA, a promise made by bullshit rumours. About time we heard the truth about what's happening from a source that's actually reliable.
Bottom line here: Tiberium's existence doesn't rule out the possibility of more C&C games, it doesn't even rule out the possibility of a true 'Renegade 2'. If you can't stand the thought of the game, don't buy it. The C&C series is losing nothing by its existence.

Yup and I agree. The only thing is, if they do plan to make a Renegade 2 down the line, it'd have to be quite a few years away.
