Command and Conquer for the modern age, I love it!

Does it have cheesy live action videos with supermodels and A-list actors/actresses who have to act out crazy scenes and say ridiculous lines while barely keeping a straight face?

They need to use ridiculous accents or else I would deem it unplayable.

CloakAndSwagger@feddit.uk on 18 Apr 08:40 next collapse

Alas, no

the inter-mission briefings are a welcome callback to C&C, but the real time 3D characters simply don’t have the charm of Westwood’s lovably daft FMVs.

No, unfortunately it doesnt. The scenes are more or less serious, so thats a bit sad, but its ok.

the demo had out of touch 3d scenes with ai voices. im not suppoeting fuckin 3drealms anyway after what they did to the wrath team.

joke aside, this franchise needs a charismatic leader such as Kane. that would be perfect

Don_alForno@feddit.org on 18 Apr 05:55 next collapse

I’m going to take a look at that.

I bought it yesterday, its a modern command & conquer, worth buying if you like that sort of base building, resource gathering and massive fight kind of a game. :)

There hasnt been anything like it in decades so I like it a lot.
