And besides. WarCraft II Battle.net edition came out after StarCraft: Brood War, but yet WarCraft III has already gotten an expansion and a sequel since then, while StarCraft has gotten nothing.

StarCraft 2 is shrouded in mystery.

EA is systematically destroying the C&C series.

The apocalypse can't be far around the corner.

Hmm, it's been awhile since I've played generals, but what was wrong with it? I used to play online all the time (my record was something along the lines of 200/100, I don't remember), but I didn't see much wrong with the game. I didn't play a lot of Zero Hour, but the only major problem I saw with the game were balance issues and how insanely powerful Chinese Gattling Tanks were, but I haven't played with the new patches, so I don't know.

Yeah, not SC2. In the second pic you can see a rank indicator on one unit, and the missle icons, which are without any doubt from C&C:Gens

looks like a shitty mod for WC3, which it will will probably end up being

Someone read only the first post and replied...

wtf, Blizzard disallowed production of the mod? Stupid, they're not even publically working on a starcraft sequel, and WC3 sucks

But, are you a fan of the series?
Because, as I've seen many times over, fans want the unrealism and alternate realities of the Tiberian series and Red Alert series, respectively.
Modern war blows. I don't want to fight terrorists.

ChewyLSB · 2004-09-12, 01:02 PM

Oh, I was a fan of the series, but I really didn't consider Generals a part of the C&C series. I understand what you mean now...

Angel_of_Death · 2004-09-12, 01:22 PM

Uh, why does everyone hate WC3...

I think it's awesome, for a strategy game that is.
