Interesting

[General Kane Nash]

"Avatar spotted! definitly hostile!"
"Enemy Venom spotted"
"Enemy scorpion spotted"
"there! Enemy shadow team!"
"Sonic Wave strike in your area"

Well, you get the idea of what this surely will be :D

[Twinblade]

This sounds some-what interesting but I didn't really liked renegade 1 as it is, This will probably fail or never get made but who knows really.

[Gaucho8788]

No it'll be like every other game EA makes for cnc. They start the project, cancel it and move on to something else to just come back and finish under a different title. Like cnc3, it was supposed to be tiberian twilight now its tiberian wars.

Renegade remade with the U3 Engine and with an RTS-crossover gametype would be an epic win. :)

[GenChuck3]

This would be so awesome, I love renegade and I still play it to this day, I want this to go further and I can't wait, there are still alot of good games I wanna get this year.

Better yet, get Company of Heroes style of strategic gameplay and awesome AI, combine it with BatteField 2142's futuristic FPS combat, and you've got yourself the game of the year!:hyper:

[Gaucho8788]

Hell, more like the game of the century. I can only imagine though.:drool:

[Tomahawk]

Well, since they already did a game centered around Havoc, aka "Commando" in the first Command and Conquer, I think this new one may be centered around Tayna or possibly Burton.

[Delta-4]

Ignore the stain on my pants, I just spilled some lemonade. :shifty:

I cannot wait for this at all. Honestly, I'm really about to start bouncing off the walls and screaming "IS IT DONE YET?!?" at my computer screen. :hyper:

[Rolk]

I personally think that a C&C game on the Battlefield scale would be unreal. Only if they do their own game engine.

Perhaps one player goes commander, builds the structures. Ect ect.

[SgtRicko]

Someone just anonymously neg-repped me for my previous comment, saying that it was unrelated and uncalled for in this thread. Normally I wouldn't do this since I'm largely against the idea of neg-repping in the first place, but since this one was so out of the blue and was from either a damn troll or someone with REALLY poor reading comprehension skills, I'll just come out and say that it was NOT appreciated, let alone understood as to why.

[Avapodnaught]

Wow, I don't see why it would be uncalled for Ricko, Id love to see command and conquer stretching out into other game styles and still be command and conquer like

I would love to be able to be the engineer getting up in a mech warrior
Maybe air units would be a good pull for Scrin, wow I wish that you could have almost every unit (but I don't see how you can get in a scrin vehicle that isn't a tripod, but I would love to be a mastermind :shifty:)

I think it might have one or more campaigns (hoping for more than one) and with one of the gdi commandos (they have nametags, wonder what the name will be), and maybe a nod commando (lasers are always nice)

Hope they follow through with this one :D

PS: After I get me some KW!!!

[SgtRicko]

Hmmm. The way I see it is that unless the Scrin manage to convert some humans to their side, be it by force or willingly, they definately won't fit in a Battlefield type of game due to the unusally expendable and dronelike nature of their units.

[Avapodnaught]

WHAT!?!?!?

How could you say that ricko? you don't want to be alien soldiers fighting on the battlefield?

Shock Troopers Running around making weird noises and moving the earth with their shockwaves
Alien Engineers being invisible when motionless and a funny units to be (alien explosives :gnarly:)
Regular disintegrators running up close and tearing the enemy vehicles apart, with he bonus of being run over
Masterminds Capturing a unit or even better a vehicle or turning off defenses like obelisks (and remember, the only dodgable tier defense in this game is the Sonic Emitter, big advantage for us, unless they have watch gun towers, which don't effect vehicles :hyper:)
And who can forget buzzers? running around and sneaking up on infantry while they guy with the rocket launcher tries to shoot us...

I guess you can inhabit scrin vehicles and you don't exit because you are the vehicle or when it is destroyed you pop up back at base (not as the vehicle, but the scrin guy at the purchase termanal)

[Toxic10x]

I missed the boat on renegade because at the time it came out, my computer was too crappy to handle it. Hopefully if this comes to fruition, I can finally enjoy some CnC FPS :)

[SgtRicko]

Since I'm pretty much convinced that the Scrin are more or less similar to the Zerg's cerebrates and Overmind due to a general lack of a human (let alone corporeal) form, the idea of unit possession seems to be more plausible.

[Hoppity]

Don't forget that EA recently purchased that cool FPS engine (I forget what it's called). Odds are they'll be using that for this game.

[Soviet779]

I really really hope they dont just take battlefield 2, rename it battlefield c&c, change nothing and then release it.

It would be good if they could use the crysis engine for it, that would give them a lot of time to perfect the game because most people can barely run crysis as it is, in a year or two though it wont be so demanding. Id rather wait a year or two then get a botched rush job now.

[NickDaMan0]

I hope they make it. I'd love a second Renegade, but as usual like Gaucho said, EA will start it, scrap it, restart it under a new name therefore rendering it half as good.

EA, please, stop doing that. Start a damn game and actually finish it.

[Gaucho8788]

Quality over quantity I always say. You can mass produce it all you want, as long as it has great quality.

[Cylon Crusader]

I hope they make it, and if they do, hopefully on a console too. There is one problem however, CNC 3 has infantry squads, how will EA manage that? I believe that these following solutions may help out.

- When you start off a game and pick a unit (infantry squad for GDI or sniper team), you could control one of the guys in the infantry squad and the other guys on your squad would be AI controlled, when your guy dies, you automatically become in control of another one of your squad members that is still alive. When your entire squad dies, you have to pay for another squad. As for sniper squads, you will always be in control of the guy holding the sniper rifle. The other guy with the binoculars, however would provide you with updated and intermittent long range radar specs, indicating where some enemies are, he could also give you a range boost as well as be used to call in air/artillery strikes. If he dies, then you will lose the ability for calling in intermittent longe range radar scans as well as some of the range advantage.

- Or, alternatively, EA could just stick with the one man squad basis, that was found in the original renegade.

[Zardac the Great]

I hope they make it, but I hope they have an option for 3rd person instead of first person.

I HATE first person.

And yes, I would LOVE to be Scrin. :evil:

The sheer, utter glory of commanding an Anihilator Tripod... the joy of Buzzing...The power of commanding a Planetary Assault Carrier, or flying one of the drones.

**drools**

[Gaucho8788]

When you put it that way,:drool:.

[Avapodnaught]

They didn't include much of the aircraft in Renegade, but cheers for the many more in the Cnc3 setting, and I would hope that they would include hand to hand combat for all (buzzers would probably only be in 3rd person when you would buy them)

If they go along the storyline and have the scrin invasion and the many cameos of people screaming in terror of the invaders (my favorite being about the joke of them running back with their tails between their legs :p), it would be a good game for multistorylining and for online play if they worked on it a bit
All in all, all I would say is like others :yummy::drool:
