Finally introducing the Scrin was cool, and I felt that Nod and GDI were pretty balanced against each other. The xpack was pretty decent as well. The only problem I had with this game was the grill from House that played the GDI lieutenant; you could tell she just did not want to be there and only wanted cocaine money.

dont you feel that the atmosphere TS had is lost in TW?

Because shit was fucked in TS, but GDI contained a lot of tiberium by the time TW happened.

you can write whatever you want. No need to nuke atmosphere like that

To me it felt closer to CnC 1 in tone. Which is fine. I'd rather them do that than try for TS feel but fall short

I missed any Kane/CABAL shit you got from the end of firestorm

Is it normal for the ingame options menu in TI to be broken?

I want to lower the game speed but it keeps flickering out of existence. Fucking annoying.

its trying to prevent you from being a casual.

why doesnt Sup Forums like command and conquer anymore?

Because it's neo/v/ now, we don't have good discussions anymore.

Good gameplay, shitty maps.

But I want old Sup Forums to talk about C&C with

You shut your whore mouth.

"FUUUUUUUUUUUCK!"

Removing the tile system for basebuilding was kinda shit.

>>LOW POWER; BUILDING OFFLINE

>the moment when the hunter seeker drone hits.

Don't worry kitty, some of us is still here

I like how EA said that "yeah will try to put in mutants and CABAL in the game" and the only thing they manage to do is put Ben 10's grandpa as a mutant, and 12 seconds of screen time for CABAL. At least they admitted they fucked up. CABAL gets another mention in 4, turns out not all bunkers were destroyed. GDI's still trying to figure out where the other bunkers are

It's an old game series that intimidates neo-Sup Forums

Where's the party?

You fuckers only talk about it but give no starting games recommendations, where to get them, which versions are best, etc.

Sometimes we are not even sure what the fuck are you people even talking about.

>tfw they will never make another command & conquer, despite the series (and surprisingly tiberian twilight) selling well
Did they really just decide to kill it off with the shittiest send off ever?

You can try any game at all and have a blast. C&C 95 and red alert 1 are really rough but from tibrian sun onwards the games are easy to get into.

they were making generals 2, then got the great idea to turn it into an imbalanced rts mmo that's PTW and remove all story.
For some reason they were surprised people got upset and didn't like it. Clearly that means no one wants a new cnc

They kept cancelling.
We need our overlord back.

Janes wrath was the shit

I loved playing as steel talons with all their mechs and turtling the shit out of my base as a kid, then zerg rushing the enemy with some massive force

Make sure to get patches.
The older ones are a bitch to get running on modern systems

C&C's last good game was Generals.

Generals was absolute shit user, beginning of the end for the franchise.

CHA CHING!

well on origin you buy a pack that's all of them.
Also on the official cnc website you can acquire the first game, red alert and tiberian sun(cnc2) for free. tiberian sun is a great game and comparable to starcraft 1. Red alert 2 i hear is good but i've never played it.

You can get them all on Origin with the Ultimate Collection or you can simply torrent said collection if you don't want to give EA money. Also, there's an open source project called FreeRA which modernizes the UIs (and supports modern resolutions) while re balancing the gameplay and maps. They also provide the multiplayer versions of Dune 2000, Red Alert and CnC 95 for free (with eventual plans to bring in RA2 and TS as well). That said, it does play a bit differently from the old games (its generally slower paced and has some different + new mechanics) and lacks most of the campaigns.

>Red Alert 2 (and it's expansion) are the most accessible and probably have the best gameplay in the series. Start here, as the stories in RA1 and RA2 are pretty distinct. Once they come to FreeRA expect a large increase in that game's population.
>Generals is quite different from the other games, playing a lot more like a Blizzard game, but it is honestly a fun game. Just don't expect a CnC game when you play it.
>Tiberian Sun (especially Firestorm) imo has the best story in the series and strong, long campaigns.
>Renegade is an FPS which has a mediocre campaign, battlefield mixed with CS style multiplayer and a really high quality free fan remake (of the multiplayer) called Renegade X which is quite faithful
>post generals CnC games are generally hit and miss. CnC 3 is the most like the older games and is the best of the "new" CnCs. RA3 tried some unique mechanics but it mostly fell flat. Tiberian Twilight is an abortion that was made in 6 months. Start with the ones before Generals.

Also note that there are 3 (mostly) separate storylines--Tiberian, Red Alert and Generals. Red Alert 1 has a link to the Tiberian series (the idea being that one campaign leads to the Tiberian games and one leads to Red Alert 2), but after that the continuities are completely distinct.

No, it was RA3.

3 Was a dumpster fire

My bad, its OpenRA, not FreeRA. And it can be played on Mac, Linux or Windows.

>Red alert 2 i hear is good but i've never played it.
Fuck off, are you serious?

Clear your schedule and get that shit. Now.

RA3 and its expansion actually had good gameplay, unlike CNC4
Both games have a shit story though. Not even Joe Kucan could save CnC4

jesus even he wasnt immune to getting sucked dry by EA

Threadly reminder that RA1 Tanya is best Tanya

>C&C3
>as a kid
>turtling
>then zerg rushing

Has anyone had any success getting any of the older games to work on Ubuntu? Try as I might I just cannot get RA2 to run. I've honestly half a mind to buy an old Windows laptop purely for CnC.

I have the first decade. I bought it a few years ago. but there's too many games i have to still play on my backlog. Firestorm being one of them.

exactly

I still consider being 17 being a kid to be fair. heck even 18 year old is still being a kid.

Salary $800,000.00

One other thing to add are the Dune games (2, 2000 and Emperor: Battle for Dune). They have the same gameplay/developers as CnC but take place in the far future Dune universe. Unlike the CnC series, your buildable area is much more confined and there are sandworms trying to fuck you whenever you enter the dunes. Also, the campaigns are open ended with less focus on story and more on gameplay.

>being 17 when playing C&C3

I think C&C needs a reboot senpai

what kind of reboot kohai

It's a 10 year old game, senpai.

I can hear it

I don't remember them being this cringe worthy.

No.

Why is it always like this

>Command & Conquer Generals 2 never

Where can I aquire Emperor Battle for Dune? I've looked everywhere.

>took warhammer designs
>pay to buy units
>bioware plastered on it

TPB

This cover didn't help the franchise grow...

>mfw the forgotten were just that
>we got shitty tiberium trolls instead

RIP Tratos

Old games that used FMVs with Z-list actors had great charm. Like this original RE intro youtube.com/watch?v=n2xBNTq1njs

Shame they fell for the kike tricks and use ((((hollywood)))) talent now, for both FMV and VA.

they shouldve used the back shot drawing from natasha. Also COOP missions only was pure cancer. They had those challenges in uprising and those were 10 times more fun

this one?

yes. Her mouth in the first pic looks really off. And natasha not looking into the "camera" also makes it look weird.

I agree. You should work at EA.

I did. But then I saw a few of my coworkers get strapped onto a stone table and slowly carved up while the guys in suits were chanting.

That douchelord wesker

Kane?

We Dead Space now

We need a Sup Forums dubs with GDI commando and kane.

Tell me about Kane. Why does he wear the mask?

No, it was a good luck ritual, or so seniors told me.

If I Ion cannon you will you die?

What is Sup Forumss favourite C&C

It would be extremely painful.

youre a bald guy

What did he mean by this?

ruh-roh

>commanders are robots
what were they thinking

...

The technology of piece!

>tiberium dawn
>Nod is a shadowy organisation that exploits tiberium to gain a massive amount of wealth and uses it to start an uprising from poor and angry states against the rich west
>tiberian sun
>Nod is a shadowy organisation that wants to turn everyone into tiberium with a rocket

Better than me being 12 back then

>tfw all the Nod business made Kane crazy

please user go away. Let this old grandpa die alone surrounded by the void of the others that left him

What happened to him.

damn kane, lay off the tiberium dust bro

JUST

tfw balding but has ugly head shape
would have shaved it all off already had my head been shaped like Kane's

C&C3 and KW were amazing games, great production values and some awesome community goodies with things like Battlecast Primetime. They really tried hard and probably invested a ton of money, but ultimately fell short, maybe in part because the releases coincided with the economic recession. Maybe it's why EA resents the franchise now and gave it such an unwarranted, underfunded, death sentence of a last game.

C&C3 and KW were the last good C&C games.

>>tfw balding but has ugly head shape
>would have shaved it all off already had my head been shaped like Kane's

Nigger I just want to play it at the same speed tib sun was at. Everyone's running around like it's fucking tribes.

>she isn't good enough to play the game at the fastest speed setting

>There are GDI scum in this thread

>tfw Generals 2 will never happen

why is Tiberium even valuable if it's abundant and self replicating?

I can't stand the cinematics in which I can see the actors read their lines from a screen in front of them. Apart from that it's okay.

I guess I'm lucky I haven't touched the latest part of the franchise.

>Fast
>Comfy
Pick one desu

TW didn't feel lik a Tiberian Sun successor desu
youtube.com/watch?v=D-PgkEg0VOs

its good. It wouldve been terrible.

because it drains soil of tiny particles of minerals it can find and forms solid crystals of it. So its like a natural excavator. It collects all resources for you from the soil and turns it into neat packages ready to process.

because it's used as an energy source, and in the first game it's not as abundant. Also they later find out it's sucking the nutrients out of the earth
