My last poll of indicating the best C&C game did not turn up as well as I expected in the GameReplays forums. Zero Hour was the runaway winner over Red Alert 2 despite insufficient voting in the final round.

This time I have decided to add for the 20th C&C anniversary is to set up a new poll, the best C&C Indie game. Only eight made it to this list excluding the incomplete Zee Hypnotist's Tiberium RPG game (which is Tiberium Chronicles) and WIP games like Generals 2 on the Unity 3D Engine and an untitled C&C game on the Unreal Engine 4.

This time I used Pollvote as the main voting site. If there is spam voting in Pollvote (in which I hope it should not happen) for that question, that question will be redone again into Strawpoll.me to limit spam voting. Although not official by EA and so is ModDB/IndieDB, this poll is just another fun poll, but this poll has never been done before. This poll will also be mentioned in some other C&C forums as well as Moddb. A new poll(s) for the next round continues next week.

 

(Be aware of ads from Pollcode unless you are using pop-up blocker plugins.)
Best C&C Indie -- Renegade-X vs. RA: A Path Beyond: http://vote.pollcode.com/88676661
Best C&C Indie -- Tiberium Crystal War vs. Tiberian Sun Reborn: http://vote.pollcode.com/65255612
Best C&C Indie -- Mental Omega (v3) vs. Open RA: http://vote.pollcode.com/84598428
Best C&C Indie -- Twisted Insurrection vs. The Dawn of the Tiberian Age: http://vote.pollcode.com/56742153

Note that Mental Omega (version 3) and Twisted Insurrection had became indies without the original C&C game(s). Also note that Open RA is the only exception for an indie mod tool game.

 

Also I believe this forum can implement embedded third party polls such as Pollcode because embedding those special HTML codes from those poll questions currently do not work in this forum.

Spoiler

Mental Omega still requires you to install over an unmodified RA2/YR Directory...

This bullshit again?


Tiberium RPG game (which is untitled)

"Tiberium Chronicles" is not a title to you?

That's not I what I played with the latest version which used the Ares format and cannot save in-game. In older versions of MO, yes.

Lel, mod versus engine. You could at least do a research, because MO is a mod and have always required a game to be played. At least I hope that when there is a draw, you won't submit a vote by yourself.

It's also debatable whether any mod can be described as "indies" just because they're standalone. They're still mods of a game. Indie games are full games built without the financial backing of a publisher.

Polls can be nice. I'll let all the naming issues, incorrect usage of 'indie' and arbitary qualifications slide, since other people have pointed it out. "C&C Expansion Projects" sounds nicer.

 

But I have to ask. Why is this arranged like a tournament?  A single poll containing all entities as options would be a better execution. People will not have to vote again in a 'second or third round', which can be more troublesome for voters.  

The problem of insufficient voting may be resolved if people only need to vote once. why vote again if my answer will still be the same?

 

In that case you also don't have to exclude mods or reasons, just in case you did that to fit 8 'fighters' in the arena. :p

 

 

Nevertheless, have fun.

Final round of this open topic is up: http://vote.pollcode.com/92888764

(Beware of ads unless you have an ad-blocker or ghostery plugins.)

 

Since Mental Omega isn't standalone to qualify as an indie, I ruled out that game from the poll list and decided that the 3 games going on to the final round will decide it all, Renegade-X vs Tiberian Sun Reborn vs Twisted Insurrection.
