I guess it's kinda a bit like Stargate, for how the Scrin get to Earth...

How very generic...they could have really had fun, but they did the most obvious, unnormous and wholly expected thing possible.
Oh, and am I the only one thinking Ori and Goa'uld for 4th and 5th sides?

Besides from a uniquness point of view, there is nothing that is completly original, everything has been done. If they had taken a different approach it would have reminded people of other things.
As they say modders are the hardest crowd to please.
I like the approach, it seems like a good approach to me. Designs look I imagined they would, they still need to be improved on but I like what I see...
Most apparent thing that strikes me is that people complain when they follow the WW concepts in some way and it is always the same when they do not... I would hate to be in EA´s cloths, whatever they do they can never come close to "glorious" WW...

I would assume that other sides stuff was most likely made to look less impressive/low tech so aliens got the real impressive look.

It was always going to be difficult to add a 3rd side since its always been just the 2 good/evil sides (with the acception of Cabal). So critisism would no doubt be high about this, but i think it will work out for the best...

Instead of some advanced way to make the it work out with two evil sides, thye just made all three (four) fight for control of Dune, just in different ways. That way, you could have them evil, yet with totally different ideologies, purposes, backgrounds, and methods.
Atreides campaign: Crush the two other and the Emperor because he interferes.
Harkonnen campaign: Crush the other two and the Emperor because he interferes.
Ordos campaign: Crush the other two and the Emperoro because he interferes.
Corrino campaign: (if it had excisted) Crush three others.
The purpose of all sides: Controll of Dune.
It's that simple.
I wish I such a simple plan.

The one in control is usually the winner since that army will be able to outproduce the other. Essence is the same as Dune, take control and do so early and you will have a upper hand.
So your wish is not a wish it is a fact

Sieben Elefanten hatte Herr Dschin
Und da war dann noch der achte.
Sieben waren wild und der achte war zahm
Und der achte war's, der sie bewachte.

Seconded.I would agree with that.I would assume that other sides stuff was most likely made to look less impressive/low tech so aliens got the real impressive look.
I'm still hoping that it turns out that these guys are actually the ones who sent tiberium.
I have a mod concept that depends on that.

But the beauty of modding is that even if something isn't what you want or need it to be, you can make it that. So even if the Scrin aren't the ones who sent Tiberium, make them the ones who sent Tiberium.I have a mod concept that depends on that.

I do hope they have some human like aliens though. These scrin could hardly even use the ship the had in TS..
