what amazing plot were you looking for? they did what they said they were going to do; they made a game more like real life based on shit that actually exists in a world much like the one we live in now with shit that could actually happen

you're all butthurt that there wasn't a supir awsom space meteorite summoned by a bald dude actually sent here by aliens so he can bring forth a secret underground society to try and take over the free world

i didn't give a shit either way, generals plays quite well and that's what matters to me


and red alert 3 is pretty solid, i was skeptical as fuck but it feels a lot like ra2


Cool

I probably won't get it, especially not at $50. I didn't care much for the first. It was interesting enough to play through the campaign but didn't have much in the form of replay value for me. Maybe if it ever drops to $10 I'll get it someday.

@ Tanky:
What are you talking about? You are the only one forcing your opinion here to be fact. All I'm doing is using points other people make as reminders for something I liked/disliked about the game.

Your OPINION isn't FACT.

But you repetedly keep posting saying how horrible and bad Generals is in every topic discussing it in a tone AS IF Generals is in fact really bad...

Yes, because it IS in fact really bad. That's my educated opinion.* Also, tone? What tone? This is the internet. I'm, to you, just text on a monitor. What ever tone you are receiving is the tone you want me to have. You might be thinking my tone, when saying this, is out of anger or a need for you to see things my way, but in fact I'm actually laughing at how stupid this argument is and at how seriously you seem to be taking it.. (your 'tone' from my perspective)
TANKY wrote on Sun, 18 January 2009 23:50

...while it is NOT.

That's your opinion. Just because you have a different opinion than me, doesn't make you right. Just as it doesn't make me right either.

TANKY wrote on Sun, 18 January 2009 23:50

In absolute unbiased reality and standard, Generals is a good game with many many favorable ratings and reviews.

Again, opinion isn't fact. In fact, to the contrary of what you said, you are the only one of us (both of us) that has the bias opinion. I've clearly stated already the reasons why I don't like the game and have also clearly stated that although I don't like the game it is a C&C game.

I'm not saying Generals is a bad C&C game, no. It's just a bad game in general (no pun intended). Or, to put it another way, if C&C Generals wasn't a C&C game and just "Generals" then I would have the exact same opinion, than I do now. How is that being bias?

Just because you don't agree with my opinion doesn't make me bias.


*educated opinion: an opinion not developed through ignorance. A state of mind and opinion developed through trial and error. (In this case, an opinion developed after playing the game in detail)

I really do hope the next C&C game isn't Generals 2 or I have wasted $10(or w/e the cost was for the premier edition compared to standard edition, oh and to add I have also wasted $10 thinking I would get an RA3 soundtrack but was left with a useless CD with unlabeled low quality tracks) on a beta key for a game that I will not even consider getting let alone try.

Fobby[GEN] wrote on Mon, 19 January 2009 00:52]I think the only reason why I had played Generals was because there were no other C&C games released between 2003 and 2006 (we saw C&C 3 in 2007). It's a very mediocre game at best, so no, I will not be trying Generals 2.

Of course not and I don't mean it that way. Funny thing is my opinion reflects the vast majority of professional game reviewers AND gamers who deemed the game just fine and gave it high ratings based on a standard ratings grid.

And generally saying, as far as C&C, I feel bad for those who hate the game because it has dozers, has no MCV, because they feel it is a rip-off and due to the different HUD and it having the "C&C" title...big lols really.

Why is that "funny?"

I've never trusted game reviews as they often don't reflect my personal opinion on the game. I'm a very easy person to please.

I am not getting it for £35-40. I'll wait until it goes to the bargain bucket for about £10.

I don't think Generals should have had the C&C logo (oh no, flamebait) on it. The whole style of gameplay was different: no turtling (effective turtling, anyway) forcing a fast build and rush style, which was not the ONLY option during earlier C&C's, and I like good story campaigns. (Generals not having one...)

That latter point is also why I am quite dissapointed with Sins Of A Solar Empire, as that has loads of backstory references in the manual (which I read as it installed) but then no campaign! Sad



Renguard is a wonderful initiative
