C&C Generals Cinematic - Battle of Baghdad

[@gramantio2586]

Hello boys, i've made a decision from now on and onward, the cinematic format will be 1 long video instead of episodes, as you might already notice i've stopped making cinematic before the series could end because i'm usually working on stuff inbetween episodes and most of the times i'm either lost on how i will finish the series or felt the series is not good enough to be continued on, but with this long format i can deliver the full experience for you all, anyways.. Let me know what's your thoughts and if you have any suggestion for future cinematic (it must be medium-small scale battle), hope you enjoy!

[@MarqFJA87]

I prefer the long format, because it doesn't have the interruptions that the short episode format suffered from, which somewhat disrupted the flow of the story. It also means that I don't have to make queues of very short videos to watch a whole series.

[@zanderking831]

hey gram love the videos man just to say if your busy right now it's okay just asking if uf is almost done or half way

[@gramantio2586]

I can't give a certain answer atm, i'll let everyone know when its done

[@pjk3066]

Bro ur videos are so good

[@brothercaptainwarhammer]

Long or in Episodes, Do what you see is Fit General Gram! regardless it would Take Time to make content as epic as this, so yeah I'm okay with the Long Format, honestly don't care, as long as you enjoy it and well it's for your Convenience! Keep the Good Shit Coming and Rolling as always, my friend!

[@Dafuqinator7]

It warms my heart to see Generals content of such sheer quality more than two decades after the game's release.

[@th3smurf692]

Quarter century bro 😂

[@xyrileinzencarin2793]

As someone who grew up with me and my dad playing with this, and still do to this day. I want to say I appreciate you so much and support the hell out of your content. Because I love Cinematics but never learned how to use C&C editor, I'm grateful I get to watch content like yours. More power to you, and I hope you keep doing what you're doing. Keep it up man!

[@Yuli_Ban]

Brings me back to 2003/2004 playing this at 2 frames per second after school on my old Dell desktop, playing the Tournament Oasis map between two USA and two GLA generals trying to replicate what I thought the Iraq War looked like from news reports. In my head, it played out like this, all cinematic like an actual war, and looked photorealistic.

[@aaron2x4]

9:40 lol Col. Burton is so tough, he survives a SCUD missile Well made!

[@mfinland2767]

2:57 ok, for one, that's awesome. For two, there's no way those B-52 could evade those old Soviet long-range air defense missiles before even reaching it's targets, even the bomber is much more older than the GLA long-range air defense systems. The obvious choice should be B-2 stealth bomber.

[@MarqFJA87]

The B-52 has been repeatedly modernized over the decades as anti-air weapons became more advanced. If you haven't noticed, they didn't simply evade, they launched ECMs to deflect the missiles away (that bunch of bright lights below each plane).

[@bloodysimile4893]

​@MarqFJA87 problem is ECM were lunch just as or after the missles miss the the bombers.

[@theotherohlourdespadua1131]

I am pretty sure this one refers to the preliminary bombing tun done by the B-52's prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom which holds the world record of being the longest bombing mission in history (roughly 25 hours)..

[@woozleification]

what if the GLA just launched them dumb

[@mfinland2767]

@@woozleification Is an old Soviet Mobile SAM Launcher!!! You're supposed to blame the missile or the logic of that scene. If it was manned by the Russians, would you blame the crew or the missiles itself even though it went straight to the targets but still missed?

[@Pz-Tiger-131]

Frankly, whether they are short or long videos... That's not the most important thing... The most important thing is that you enjoy making these videos and that they are always just as great, on your scale, it's really clean. So personally, it doesn't change anything for me... Only the quality of your videos and your personal satisfaction matters to me 😁

[@gramantio2586]

I still very much enjoy making cinematics, is just the way i work with the episodes format kinda burn me out way faster and doubled down by not finishing the series, soo yeah i'll be using the long format from now on

[@prettyoddartofvolatile]

Absolutely fantastic I never really stopped playing this game ever since 2004, but man this is both awesome and heartwarming, well done

[@TheHunter649]

It's quickly obvious that a lot of work went into this, well done i always enjoy seeing those old models i made years ago in a cinematic like this.

[@gramantio2586]

Ayy the man himself, thankyou, and this cinematics wouldn't be as good as it is without your mod

[@retiredgamer1511]

2:14 and 2:54 is just pure epicness, glad to have you back on making cinematics bro

[@Exshooter101]

The music picking up as the planes emerged from the clouds was very, very good timing

What a memory. I'm glad someone still actually cares about this 20 years old game.

This long version is nice. I do love that the infantry is so much taller than the armored vehicles😁

[@kewlkat2712]

C&C character models are so ugly. I thought they looked so odd even when I was a kid

[@LayLowOfficial]

This just warms my heart! People are still making content for this awesome game even though it is 20 years old. I love the fact that people like you help keep C&C alive . This must have taken quite a lot of time and effort to make . Bravo! Also: Looks like war crimes are back on the menu,boys!

You finally have artillery as America I have wanted that for a long time.

[@ValerijBosch-q5c]

damn really good! Eve more awesome since it seems you used models from different mods as well. Not gonna lie they mix and match pretty good.

[@brothercaptainwarhammer]

(Damn 4 Days Late, weIp better late than Never, yeah?) I can see the Amount of Attention to Detail and regardless of the lack of Audio to simulate conversations, which I would have personally Loved, the Silence and ASMR like Nature of this has its Charms, I loved the part where the USA Battle Themes Kicked off as the Gadfly AA Missile Tanks Open Fired, and those B-52s Dodging the Missiles? Damn son, that was Epic! I also love the Shoot and Scoot or Fire and Maneuver attacks done by Tanks, fuckin beautiful, and that last part with the SCUD Storm and the more Spread out Hits of the Missiles Adds even more Cinematic and Movie like Feel to it, I love everything about this Cinematic so Much! From the Assault into the City, the Fierce Defense, the Desperation, and the Retreat, some mighty Good Shit yo! Can't wait for your Future Cinematic Projects, my Friend! Keep the Good Shit Coming, General Gram!

[@gramantio2586]

Indeed, better late than never, and thanks! Really appreciate the compliments! All of the detail and more work towards this cinematic is possible because it is a long format so i can work on it for a more longer period of time and give more effort into it, unlike the episodes format which to be fair easier but it kinda burn to me a whole lot faster. Anyway glad you enjoy, stay tune for more!

I Give Compliments when its due and needed, especially if its Deserved which you definitely do for all these Amazing Content you pump out, and Sounds like a plan General Gram!

This is a real of art❤❤

[@deltaforcebhdlunaticc9922]

I was GLUED to the screen. This is some next level stuff right here brother. Intro displayed vast city under GLA Occupation. We see GLA getting ready for warm anti air welcome. USA Planes DODGING MISSLES and bombing GLA back to stone age. And the clash. Engages and disengages. Retreat and mutual destruction on both sides. And the cliffhanger as we are left to wonder what happens next as both forces managed to relatively successfully retreat. There is no my fav part of this video. This entire video was MASTERPIECE. 10/10 CLEAN WORK !!!!

[@gramantio2586]

Really appreciate it mate, i do infact feels more proud with this long format, it makes my work somewhat easier than the episodes format The only thing left i need to do is try to find or make a suitable voiceline for new cinematics instead of reusing the ingame ones
