I never followed everything C&C, but I used to love the hell out of Red Alert 2. Wouldn't mind trying this out
The right decision? Fuck no. Personally i think this is just a response to End of Nations, which is developed by former Westwood folk. Whatever their reasoning is, i guess it cant get any worse then C&C 4, so whatever, ill give it a shot. But im going in with super low expectations. Also considering that all of EAs other F2P offerings at the moment are mostly Pay to Win, yeah ill be expecting that nonsense as well.
Are they still calling the studio "Bioware Victory"? Because I will only play EA games if they are made by studios that have the word Bioware in them.
Im really skeptical about this. I dont really like free to play in theory. Im going to give F2P a try since it's command and conquer, but Im going into it with a very nervous feeling.
So let me get this straight. Instead of letting a series that has been on the receiving end of losses at every release, die a quiet death such as other EA series (The Strike Series, Black and White, Road Rash, and others) they instead seek to make another game and suffer further losses?
I mean if they want to waste money why not start giving random people chances at making video games. I'm sure there is bound to be one good game among say 1 million. Plus they can give proceeds go to charity (which ever one they're going with at the time) and have it as a tax break too.

It's like the greatest hits of EA's worst ideas ever:
Online connection only? Check.
Kill the single player for multiplayer focus? Check.
Lie to your community about going back to basics? Check.
It makes me wonder if they didn't actually brainstorm ways to make a worse Command and Conquer experience than C&C4 for them to have come up with an idea so utterly terrible.
And to think that Generals 2 had been on my radar for 2013 since it's announcement, EA really blow chunks.

This sounds good in theory but it's EA we're talking about here. I have no doubt that they will make this game pay to win.
ive been playing command and conquer since i got the demo for the first game on a pc gamer demo disc that came with the magazine many years ago. C&C 1 and warcraft 2 are what got me into RTS in the first place. ive watched the franchise since through all its ups (RA2/C&C3) downs (RA3) and head in the toilet rock bottom (C&C4).
i weep for what is yet another great franchise destroyed by the worst company in america and i wont even get into forcing me to install that STD of a delivery platform that is origin. i weep for the could have beens (C&C4). i weep for all the childhood memories that have been ruined by EA and not just in C&C. i weep for the decline in gaming and its quintessence EA
am i overreacting? to some yes but i dont think so. i love what i love, i play what i play, and it just really hurts to see what got me into the genre in the first place get treated like a 5 dollar whore.

but they just launched F2P Command and Conquer game and now they scrapped Generals 2 for another one? WTF!
I imagine they'll have an Energy meter just like their "facebook games." And when you run out of energy you'll need to request more from origin friends or buy it with money. And of course, pay to unlock vehicles.
My beloved franchise is now totally dead. They killed it when they first released Tiberium Wars, but now they killed it again :'(
Rot in hell EA.
