Seems that many people have the same idea about adding CABAL as a fourth side. If adding Cabal won't be too generic by the time I want to do it, I may make use of some of these ideas. And the tech units is certainly a cool idea... might be worth re-adding it again.

[Nighthawk]

I'm not sure the Scrin would really have the need of a navy, considering they can just bomb things from the air. Naval units just don't seem right for a faction which has interstellar transport capability.

well, i have been thinking on removeing the scrin and replaceing it by GDI/NOD mixed faction(rebels). but cabal would also be nice. i copy and pasted anything. and i might adding some of the ideas(or all of them) but i will use it as a base. now only the hopes are that alot of 3d modelers will make cabal 3dmodells and textures:P. and anims ofcourse:P herher:P.

Greetz and thanks for those nice ideas ~godsun

I'm glad you like my ideas and I'm pretty sure about a thing: community will appreciate a whole new faction (Cabal) that may be really innovative (use of cyborgs that is missed in TW and was loved in TS/Firestorm), so the navy and the introduction of secret unit (ex: if engineers can work as spy too, don't know if possibile)

Off course you can use them all, and futuristic navy would be a great game addiction (even for scrin considered their space ship don't have sensor for submarines etc...plus they can strike the enemy with surprise attacks from they don't even prevent, like the sea).

My personal suggestion is: keep all 3 sides, add Cabal as fourth side and you can add the "mercenary factions" (more or less like act of war): rebels for GDI and Nod, Tiberium wildelifes for Cabal and Scrins so each side can have its special abilities".

I've forgot some things for nod in the list: Subterranean APC and a possible upgrade to make flame tank subterranean too.

I like the idea for CABAL's walls. Makes it unique because vehicles can travel over them until they pop up... actually... the entire wall is a gate! XD

But the problem is, unless the walls can detect stealth, they won't work against Stealth Tanks and any other invisible unit like a regular wall would.

[Rygar]

can the problem be solved if basic turrets can detect stealth/subterranean units?

[GodSun666]

well, the only problem now is: models.. we need some models for it XD. but hey those ideas will be putten in nice use.. if i noone makes models of cabal. well then im gonna make some myself. or mod those ideas for another faction:P

[Mighty BOB!]

There would still need to be turrets next to all the wall segments though or a stealth tank could just go over the wall in a place where no turret could detect it.

Now if the walls were always up, unless your units wanted through (gatewall!) then it would solve the problem.

[Rygar]

are we sure we need only models? I mean, what about voices, and codes? Is all possible what I've asked (ifv, multiple turrets, walls etc..)?

In this case maybe walls should have stealth detection... I don't know if this is the best solution

well, i only said models since i can code do voices myself. and because i aint such a great guy at makeing a really good low-poly model. and i suck at makeing robots:P. but iam 65% sure that alot of people once the sdk is here we will see alot of model packs and such .

and good to see you registered:).

I've recently bought the expansion. I'm quite satysfied because most of the stuff I've mentioned is in.

Maybe CABAL isn't necessary anymore, but units like mammoth2 (replaces the mammoth for steel talon) or ghost stalker (replaces standard commando for the ZOCOM) could be implemented as well.

Am I wrong or the naval units are possible to implement? I guess the game as some cool usable naval already in...

[FoRSAkeN_oNe]

I would love it if EA would allow use of those giant Battleships you see in some missions. The Nod Battleship looks especially armed.

[Rygar]

I've read the mod section in C&C3 EA forum, if I remember correctly they are structures and need the animations to be used as units...but they are really cool and should be implemented.

[Thunder_Head]

Rygar, I like your idea for the CABAL and Naval units. But IMO, I don't think Scrin should have the naval units because they already have powerful aircraft and wormhole transport already.

I don't know is there a gundam fans in this forums or not. My idea would be turn this game into a gundam mod. Why? Because I'm fond of Gundam People!!!(Feel little ashamed about this ) Too bad that I'm not a modder so I decide to contribute some idea how gundam mods should be done. First of all there at least 6 factions If you want gundams factions agianst the Scrins or Just 3 regular C&C3 factions(GDI,NOD and Scrin) or 9 factions in my mods

For all factions Structures
Barracks-remain the same but maybe fewer choices of infantry to choose for
War Factory-no Longer Produce tanks, they produce the Mass Production Mobiles Suits such as GMs, Zaku, Doms, Gins, etc. instead
Airfields-Produces transformable(If someone know how to mod) and any other flying mobile suits and Space Ships instead of the aircrafts.
Advance War Factory(I don't know the exact name where you can build epic units because there are they don't sold the English version in my country)-Builds Advanced Mobile Suits, Mobile Armors and Spaces ships. All Gundam Epic Units will be build able in this factory
Defensive Turrets- I completely have no Idea about them maybe a well round defensive turret that can engage both air and ground so you concentrate your time build up your army of mobiles suits.

If you guys want to hear more details about factions and Epic units please let me know
