C&C 3 Demo

#11788 posted by NotoriousRay on 2007/02/28 02:27:11

anyone tried it? Pretty good stuff, although it's a bit buggy (it is by EA).

I also refuse to believe EA developed this engine- it runs far too smooth.

Good How?

Is it good if you liked the old games and just more of the same, or are there many new features and interface enhancements. I heard there is no order queueing, which sounds retarded, since you could queue just about everything in Total Annihilation 8 years ago.

C&C3

#11790 posted by Vigil on 2007/02/28 16:21:56

It's really more of the same. It's not Total Annihilation 2's massed mindless hordes of robots and hedonistic base tinkering, or Company of Heroes' "place this squad on this side of the stone wall and activate these seven abilities or you lose" micro-management.

You build a refinery to get tiberium, build power plants, amass a force for the push against the enemy base. It's hard to tell it's been 12 years since the original. Hell, the demo doesn't even have hills.

Still, it's got Kane, FMVs with real actors, and the Brotherhood of NOD.

Having Said That

#11791 posted by Vigil on 2007/02/28 16:27:44

I enjoyed playing the demo. It was good, wholesome C&C fun. If you're looking for an RTS revolution, look elsewhere (into the future), but if you're looking for a solid, fun game, this looks very promising.

than did a bang up job with dm3rmx, but good fuck the Drew/Hrimfaxi winter competition map kicked ass!

Well...

#11798 posted by than on 2007/03/11 05:35:01

Thanks for the votes whoever has voted for dm3rmx :)

I voted for the winter pack because Egypt was definitely my fave map of last year, although there were some other really good maps released too. Does that list really contain all the SP maps released last year? I could have sworn there were more. Maybe I played a few older maps too.

Yeah

-The table cells are allowed to move inside the table (horizontally of course). So if there is a long mapname it will move the other cells a bit.
-The screenshots are supposed to be displayed on the left side of the description.
-The download links are not working. The contribute.html is not done.

Shout if there is any information missing. Maybe I forgot about some thing people want.

If someone has a good color to suggest for links (because of too much pink maybe), I might consider it. =)
Same goes for the hearts. Maybe some small Quake-related symbol?

Looks Fine Here

in GreenBrowser/IE5.5, pages load fast. I assume the current non-pageable listings are just examples?
