Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: Bastet on March 02, 2007, 04:16:05 PM
The demo is just out, and i must say, they did a good job at it, it looks good, plays fast, and i like the improvements they made over the old game.
 
If your into the series, the demo is well worth checking out :)

I've since modified my original post and "quoted" myself above.

So the one you "quoted" will still be the old address that doesn't work.

Now I'm confused! :sad:

Only point where i was a tiny bit disappointedmwas about the physics system.. Shooting the biggggg Ion doom canon thingie, nukes any damn building... but trees keep standing...

But might just be me thats getting to used to the nice physics of SupCom :D


Other then that minor thing.. Seems to be a KICKASS game :D

lol yeah thats a tiny bit anyoing, but hey, maybe there superduperbbq trees that withstand it with ease?
Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: Nefertem on March 06, 2007, 02:10:40 PM
Well the fact that the trees are slimmer they can withstand the airpressure created by an explosion (or avoid or how you say it).. Haven't tried the game though, so if they keep standing after the bomb hits just next to them or on them, then I can see the problem..
But maybe the bomb is just a future thing that doesn't destroy nature and preserve the natural balance of earth so we won't be doomed in a nuclear-war :g:

Imo after playing the demo over a couple of times, i hope they balance the units out a bit.... pop out 15 mam's and the nod are Byebye.....
maybe 5-6 Obelisks will be able to stop em... :O

well, afaik the nod tactic is to not let the gdi build the mams, frequent guerilla type attacks are the nod style
 
ime more interested in the scrin tbh :P
Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: kregoron on March 20, 2007, 11:13:45 PM
tbh it takes no time to get some mam's... even more surprising how little it takes to make superweapons...
Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: Carr0t on March 21, 2007, 09:57:21 AM
Not really convinced you can make that kind of judgement from the demo alone, where they have specifically started you off with stacks of cash and such so that you can easily create the mammoths and superweapons and see how cool they are. Those levels are probably the first ones where you get to play with those units, so they want people to see how fun they are, and will then make them work hard to get them in later levels.
Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: kregoron on March 21, 2007, 10:21:12 AM
Imo you dont even start with a high amount of cash, when looking what you started with in the old games, its more the time it takes to build a mam im worried about but that will hopefully be adjusted..

Oh dear, CD-WOW have been very naughty (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/03/21/cd-wow_loses_parallel_importing_case/) and they haven't stopped.

Today I received my copy of C&C:3 from them and guess whats written on the back.

Why bother to play C&C 3 at all, when you can just play C&C 6 (or even 12 :woot2:) instead...

At the moment i'm having great fun with the single player campaign. I've just got to Act 3 for both GDI and NOD. No sign of the aliens yet. I was hoping there'd be at least a short single player campaign for them, but I think they might just be bad guys for both sides. Not sure yet. The game is good enough to make me prefer to play that than WoW, which hasn't happened in a while.
Title: Command & conquer 3
Post by: Bastet on April 01, 2007, 11:07:29 AM
Well, i know that there is a 3th (short) campain in which you get to play the scrin after you finish both the GDI and NOD campains. Myselfs, i didnt start NOD yet, but i am working towards killing the temple of NOD in the GDI line, after which there will be some more levels which i will asume include fighting some scrin.

Yeah its free, and really fun, getting quit good at it (playing on Heavy allready after only 2 weeks :D)

At this point i have to react so quickly that i can't think at all, i'm actually amazed at the speed my fingers react at the stream of arrows that i have to hit, like 3-6 hits per second for periods ranging from 10-50 seconds without missing a single one.

Warning must be given, don't play it on your brand new keyboard, you will tend to smack the keys alot when you are in the moment :)

 Yeah, I think that's ok... you'd have to ask Dr Sadako though, as he's the forum moderator for Strategic Gaming, which probably means he's in charge of how this is all organised ^^.

 Anyways, I haven't actually played many C&C games, only Red Alert and Generals Zero Hour, so I don't really know much about the story line >.>.
