Big steaming pile of shit --> less people buying it --> less people playing it --> less new modders and --> less people playing the mods. It would still be a problem... not a too big one though. Still, I'd rather mod a nice game than a crappy one...

And i would love to be wrong and i'll be happy to be wrong, i really want EA to make this game the best
and i think that EA should use the formula you just showed: Big steaming pile of shit --> less people buying it --> less people playing it -->Less Money for our pockets

Yo, guys, EA will not screw this up. They will make another great game. Let's just see how it comes out, alright?

[ambershee]

Another great game? EALA have made a great game before ?

[Shine On]

@ ambershee

And Dark lord:

Less New Modders --> More concept and Ideas for people to incorperate into mod ---> More attention to game through cool looking Mods ---> More people playing Game ---> More modders

So it all works out in the end...

Thats if EA DONT deviate from the original bloody story line >.<

EA has made the C&C Series (Sort of), BF2, and others. I pretty sure this will be good.

[ambershee]

EALA are only responsible for Generals, all of the real CnCs were built by Westwood. Generals was hardly fantastic.

EALA are also responsble for BfME, and the travesty that is BfME 2 and its expansion.

EA are not responsble for any of the Battlefield games, and are partly responsible for 2142's rushed crappery. Dice developed Battlefield, EALA had no part in it at all.

Then why do they say "EA games" when you start up the games?

[Shine On]

Cause the franchise and/or name is owned by them. Doesn't mean they have anything to do with the development. However they do control the profits and cutbacks which they tend to make soo often

[ambershee]

EA is a publisher, not a developer. They fund developers, who make the games, which are then published by the publisher, who rips off the developer by retaining most of the profits, but gives them just enough to keep going and produce yet another sequel to yet another impossible deadline.

Demon, no offence but what makes you absolutely sure this game is gonna be superb. Nobody has played CnC3 yet so nobody can say its either the worst or best CnC ever.

You're overhyping the game, which is not smart, as hyping always results in dissapointment (even if it is a good game). EA has a history of screwing up games so the more logical thing to expect is that they'll fuck this one up as well. But we cant tell yet. Still in every CnC related news you preach about how its gonan be the best game ever.

Dont declare yourself a winner before the game has begun, its a dangerous guess.

Again, no offence, just my 0,02 $

My odds are: 70 percent solid game like Generals, 10 percent C&C reborn, 9 percent total screw up, 1 percent totally awesome, C&C perfection (or close to it).

If it's solid, it's modder fodder.
