Personally, I think C&C 3 will be a solid game that's modder fodder.
I give it a month before the modders descend upon the game.

I'd like to hear your thoughts.

I'm with you on the modder fodder idea, as anything with the EA backing behind it won't usually amount to much, but I think that modders will descend upon it like hawks within the week it's released. Hell, they're already preparing over at T3A.

OLD SIG
When history witnesses a great change Razgriz reveals itself,
first as a dark demon. As a demon it uses it power to rain death upon the land,
and then it dies. However after a period of slumber Razgriz returns
As the demon sleeps, man turns on man.
Its own blood, and madness soon cover the earth.
From the depths of despair awaken the Razgriz.
Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light.
Amidst the eternal waves of time
From a ripple of change shall the storm rise
Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon
Behold the Razgriz, its wings of black sheath
The demon soars through the dark skies
Fear and Death trail its shadow beneath
Until Men united wield a hallowed sabre
In Final Reckoning, the beast is slain.
Razgriz intrerpretation

The game will be cool, but still moddable :rolleyes:

I'd have said that it will be modded before it's out, but you don't have that option :thumbsupsmiley:

I think it will just be fair. As for modding, I actually expect people to start on it before release (read modelling etc)

My guess is that it will take a month, as they will not be releasing it with releasem probably after the first patch or so. Solid modder fodder just like the rest of their games.

Has anyone noticed that the obelisk of light was supporting another obelisk and was itself supported by a ground unit. That's cool stuff. Should have existed earlier.
Check gamespot's gameplay preview movies.

I'm of the opinion that the fair and solid options are pretty much the same. If you agree, request a moderator to change the poll.

Edit by DLotS: Merged the choices

Nemoricus: Thanks.

I goofed earlier. That obelisk was relaying a beam through a ground unit to another obelisk.
Even cooler.

I really goofed. Two obelisks were just shooting the same target.

You know what the screenshots remind me of? CNC on Halo drugs. Thus, since Halo = Awesome

CNC on Halo must also equal Awesome.

It seems like EA is really trying on this one. I think it will be solid and fun to play, but it also seems like it's using an upgraded sage engine so modding may not be easy.

I am guessing the recent SDK they released for BFME and Generals will be the one we will end up having to use for CNC3. But you never know, they may actually try to support the modding community this time.

I'm not sure - I've heard rumours that a few of the file formats (including soft architecture) are going to be switched around in favour of new, more common ones. The SDK may just plain be redundant if they do that :thumbsupsmiley:

well i would hope they release an SDK that supports features only CNC3 has. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what they do.

I have another question that should be added.
How long do you think EA will keep the third side under wraps?
1. Until the day of release.
2. A week before.
3. A month before.
4. Earlier.

And yet another question:

How long are they planning to support the game after release? It certainly ain't one of EA's strong sides :rolleyes:

(1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists.
(2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

About three and a half minutes. Then they'll close the support forums, and it'll be left to the leet hacksaws to unlock them again. :rolleyes:

I'm with C&C reborn, and up to a month. I believe this game is going to be really good, but it may crank out my computer...

The game seems to be interesting although it's about a different tiberium and a twisted alternative of the tiberium storyline. But it's looking like a very fun game. I believe the game will start to be modded during the public beta stages, so it's before being released...

LOL, you're right. People are modding the SupCom beta right now.
We just can't wait, can we?
Someone add Before release to the first question and change a month vote to that please.

You want "Before release" created, "A month" deleted and the votes transfered?
