OK, so, I want and need to know what you think about C&C3 -- what cool stuff you're looking forward to, what you're afraid of... pretty much anything. I'm trying to get a feel for what the popular opinion is in the Renegade community.
Go nuts - there are no wrong answers.

I am afraid that I can't run this game cos its gonna be a huge system hog and my puny laptop cannot support it at all. They should make a lo-fi generals-style version of the game or I will waste my money buying it. I'm not buying a new comp either.

Eventually you'll have to. Game companies have to keep making better and better games that require more hardware. It's the nature of things. :\

Most of the stuff in C&C 3 are uber-revamped versions of the C&C Tiberian Dawn counterparts. But story wise it's 100 times better than Generals.

Watching a couple of flame tanks rip through GDI infantry was worth the trip to EA LA in itself... the graphics are amazing, and the demo I saw was like 3 months old. The only thing I'm not so keen on are the squads, but at least they aren't big squads and there won't be a pop cap.

As long as they dont introduce unit limits like those "command points" in BFME2...

Pretty much been said already, but I reiterate. I'm very interested as to what has happened with Kane/CABAL and what the hell GDI will do without their command staff and the Philadelphia, not to mention becoming the lesser power of the two. I also wonder if this will be the final C&C game and, if so, how will it end?
Concerns are mostly that EA has disposed of major plot points from Tiberian Sun, though I'd be pleased if they tied in Red Alert in some small manner. I'm also upset that I won't be able to play it, since even Generals makes my computer cry.
But I ultimately think it will turn out all right.

It actually looks like they're doing a good job on it! I like how they concentrate on single player. All too often single player was sacrificed for multiplayer purposes and i'm very happy they don't seem to do this for C&C3 (stress: seem).
All in all I'm very excited to see this one coming. What concern computer requirements: they won't be all that heavy, a RTS needs less ressources than a FPS. If you can play Generals on good quality, you should be able to play C&C 3.
For the people living under a rock: here's the C&C 3 history (well, most of it) up to date to today -> http://www.thekoss2.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2796
(beware: long read and quite some pictures)

I didn't like Generals at first, but it grew on me.

I think it looks pretty awesome. I was completely sucked into the C&C Tiberian Sun storyline etc so I'm rather desperate to play this. And I'm very pleased that they are making a C&C 3.
To be honest I thought Generals was really fun. It didn't have the storylines from previous C&C games but it reflected the real world a lot more. It was a fun break if anything.
But hell yeah, bring on C&C 3.
this is more common than the self-diagnosis of asperger's in the goon population how is it obsCURE FUCKKK

I hope it has a kick ass multiplayer with a decent AI. All the previous C&C games have shittastic AIs.

Awesome. I am a Renegade devotee, as you know, so I haven't been following C&C3 much. I'm glad the feedback has been mostly positive thus far. Is there anything you've been wanting to know about the game?
(Sorry, this will all make sense in a couple weeks)
