it was a military escort including a specialist terror unit so it's equivelent would be a small force of marines light naval forces and some special forces who specialize in psychological warfare that said yeah the scale of a proper scrin invasion in gonna be crazy that said the miner did know they were gonna lose after one battle so opted into terror tactics and nod and gdi are now fully aware of what fighting scrin is like the element of suprise and unknown is gone

Really depends on what kind of reaction it had. If it was mostly vaporized liquid T, that looks plausible. There had been several smaller scale impacts in history which effected worldwide climate, from all the dust and particulate matter that gets shot into the stratosphere. But realistically (in game), if that much liquid T got into the atmosphere, it should had caused a mass extinction by way of radioactive/toxic materials getting literally everywhere on the planet. I doubt every single blue zone is hermetically sealed, self sufficient, and fully resistant to tiberium damage

Though I guess the nature of the invasion storyline meant you can't drag out a tech progression so...

[@aze559]

That final Scrin mission is one of my fav c&c missions period. It's not only very challenging, but it feels like you're legitimately fighting a competent human player trying their best. GDI throws literally everything at you and in clever ways, it rebuilds bridges, uses all of the abilities at their disposal. It's an incredible dopamine rush that I wish other c&c games had. Sure some missions were creative in some other ways like the mission on the moon in ra2 or the mission in ra1 where all of the units are wonky and timewarped, or another one where you have to deal with super tanks or where you're fleeing from a horde of apoc tanks. Missions like that are nice too, but they're pretty sparse. Zagreb GDI is another hated mission which I quite enjoy due to its challenge and creativity. I like a lot of the more challenging missions in tib wars and generally find it to be the best campaign c&c has made to date. It's a shame that no other campaign in the c&c series comes close imho. There are a few jewels in the various campaign missions but most of them are either no build missions (which there are almost no well designed missions of, because they're done to death and are so boring), or just missions where you turtle until you get a massive force and steamroll your enemy. Shame the good foundation set by the tib wars campaign is wasted afterwards, its expansion didn't have missions nearly as good I felt, and RA3 could've had something creative with its co-op campaign, maybe each mission you could actually choose if you take the role of the main player or the co-op commander's spot on the map, a few missions would have exactly that even. Player 1 would be forced to do A while ally would do B, and they should've let you choose that in singleplayer and even design all missions with that in mind, it'd boost the replay value immensely. Shame because that game had absolute immaculate unit designs. Uprising then tossed the co-op factor out of the window entirely and I only liked maybe one mission in that whole game's set of campaigns (some challenge missions are fun but 99% of them can be rushed and cheesed). After that it's history. If c&c is brought back, it needs to not only continue the unit design foundation which just kept getting better with each entry, they also need to take a look at the tib wars campaign to see what they did right and the others as well just for good measure to look at which missions worked and which didn't. As well as check out how some competitors design their campaigns, with starcraft 2 being an excellent example

[@Honzik207]

I also come back often to the tib wars campaign, however my favourite one is Zero Hour campaign. Yes, there is no story, yes it's really short but it's challenging enough for it to be difficult and each mission has something unique(the oil mission having oil Derrick's as a main income, the last mission giving you GLA units, the 2 mission battleship and carrier, GLA's final mission having all 3 factions tech unlocked, GLA's 4th mission with clever sneak gameplay, China's 4th mission with it's weird objective, China's 3rd mission with it's weird time limit that was actually fun(the more time you have, the faster it goes down, however at low levels it goes down very slowly, rewarding slower, more though out approach to objectives without the need to rush any).

[@gligar45]

Interesting thing I found with the Croatia Mission, The initial waves they send to your base are just attack moving to your starting position, the mission was a lot easier, at least to start with, if you take your Drone ship and park it next to the blue Tiberium field and the Mutant Hovel, and while they will eventually come to attack you, they ignore you for quite a while doing that.

[@burge117]

Man I really wish the C&C4 we got was regarding a full Scrin invasion. Always thought they could have added a new faction in to round it up to four. A combination of GDI and NOD who see the Aliens as an even bigger threat and focused on preparing for their return. You would obviously still then have diehard GDI and NOD forces who stayed true.

[@SoldierOfFate]

The 4 factions, plus a 5th one because why not: Classic GDI, having devolved to conservatism of seeing all Nod and Scrin aligned forces burn. Classic Nod. The usual Messiah-loving fanatics. A mix of splintered GDI and Nod forces that came together, knowing the Scrin will end them no matter where their loyalties lie. Scrin, this time led by the Overlord himself who is burning for revenge since the failed harvesting operations from the 3rd war. CABAL, who wants to not only assimilate humanity, but also the Scrin into his cybernetic war machine. Believe it or not, this was Westwood's original vision for his appearance in their version of C&C3.

[@Luxai]

Okay, I'm getting a bit tired if the "just a harvesting force" argument. Scrin needs tiberium like we need air. Their method of getting this "air" is seeding it on distant planets and then harvesting it. They are naturally aware that there exists other intelligent life in the universe if they can travel between planets and systems so easily. It then makes perfect sense that they'd have military units to defend their operations, especially when you calculate in that they could have neighbors or rivaling factions to contend with. What I'm saying is, while they weren't a full invasion fleet, they weren't fighting using repurposed harvesting drones and ships either. Why would you bring a carrier ship that can generate ion storms along if you just wanted to harvest some tiberium? These were their actual military we fought. Just not a lot of it.

[@tzCombot]

"Just a harvesting force" doesn't mean it's just a bunch of miners. It means it's a bunch of miners and a small military force to subdue the expected dying remnants of resistance on a given world to harvest. It just so happened that said small military force encountered way more than they were equipped for and got its shit kicked because the natives were actually a sort-of a threat. This is why they attacked population centers so much early on, they needed a diversion against a clearly bigger-than-expected force to buy time.

[@Luxai]

You can't beat me copyright! 🧐 'You know, I never could quite decide what annoyed me more: the fact that they keep bringing Kane back despite him being about as interesting as a cockroach or that the Scrin invade right after both GDI and Nod basically exhausted all their resources fighting each other (as in Nod was literally pushed to the absolute brink), have vastly superior technology and access to massive energy reserves and production resources yet they are beaten back, have their technology subverted by Kane and are forced to retreat. Yeah, I get that humanity needs to 'win' and that the Scrin were only supposed to be an advance harvesting expedition but even so, it just doesn't make any sense.'

[@whocares435-z9v]

I think it makes sense. IRL, nations that are winning are usually the strongest right at the end of a war, not the start. Like, the US had something insane like 8 million service members and 6,000 ships by the end of WW2. GDI had disarmed moderately before the game to focus on ecology, and most of the Blue Zones were recovered pretty quickly from NOD. For most people it seems like it was basically a few days of scary men in the streets before NOD got pushed back. Little permanent damage. It's not like all the Blue Zone cities got turned into Stalingrad. So it's fair to assume that GDI was able to start militarizing basically immediately. They probably have at least 1 or 2 billion people in the Blue Zones, which is still huge. That's equivalent to the entire Earth during WW2. So they'd have access to all the manpower of every WW2 faction and then some. Plus Tiberium makes running an industrial economy much easier. Since instead of needing to gather all sorts of minerals and fuels, you just use Tiberium for everything. It contains all the minerals you need, plus can be used for power. So you don't need nearly as many people tied up in industry. I could honestly see GDI having something like 50 million personnel by the time the Temple falls. It would really fit with how brutally they are steamrolling everyone by the late game. Even if the Scrin brought millions of people (which would require an incredibly large fleet), it just can't compare to how many people can live on a planet.

[@Veldazandtea]

Lore dump and rant. Frankly I'm disappointed in people that are lying. It makes it difficult for the devs to trust the players. Which partly explains the state C&C is in these days. Lore dump first. The foreman wants to know more about Kane. Do you know what happens when you don't know what Kane is up too? In TS, in the nod ending, Kane covers the entire planet in tiberium. While the cannon ending is GDI, the ending was still what Kane was trying to do. Even if you play as GDI in TS. To try and bring the scrin to earth so he can use the towers most likely. in TW Kane seems to have found a way to get the same result with less destructive means. To an extent. He's had time. Tech advanced. Makes sense. In the ending of Kane's wrath it's confirmed Kane is a clone. Further backed up in Red alert where Yuri is basically a clone of Kane. Red Alert is actually tying in with the other C&C games. Because of Red Alert ends. It's shown Kane manipulates events before he becomes more public. Kane's Wrath also shows there's multiple tubes with him in the ending. There's clearly multiple Kane's in tubes. This is why Kane keeps coming back. It's less that he "survies" and more that he "returns". Since Kane is a clone it makes it difficult to know if any Kane clones have survived past events. The one taking off the mask in Kane's Wrath may be putting on a show. There's no lies but you assume what you assume. Which is what makes so likeable. The reason there's only one public Kane at one time is because if it was known he was a clone then GDI would know that. Which hinders him. It makes more sense to have only one around as a public figure to lead Nod. Clones tend to get a lot of stigma. It would weaken Kane's postion as a leader of Nod. It seems only Legion is aware of this and knows for sure. Kane himself may be Cabel/Legion, or rather a copy of the AI. If you ever played the very first Deus Ex game then Helios/Icarus and how they merge with the player in that ending (of which their are multiple endings) is a good example. Machine merges with man basically. This would also explain why Kane trusts Legion. Knowing Kane I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted Cabel to push Nod and GDI to work together. If either side becomes too powerful then he coud risk Nod not having an enemy to distract them. The balance of power needs to be even enough to keep the factions fighting and distracted for Kane to pull off his plans. So what IS Kane's end plan? To use the scrin towers to get somewhere. I know that much. For what reason though? His goal isn't genocide. He wants to get somewhere for some reason. And uses Nod as a tool to that end. If he wants to stop the scrin alogether then his plans so far make sense. Get their attention then face them directly. Perhaps engage in diplomacy. The foreman does show harvesting operations can be moot if there's something else. The foreman knows Kane can be a threat. Possibly to his entire species. Kane's clever. If anyone can put the scrin on the backfoot it's him. This could all be a clever plan on Kane's part to actually save the planet. Get the scrins attention early to prevent them from wiping out earth in a more weakened state. That plot line could be spun a number of ways. It actually leaves a lot of room for Kane to grow, change and adapt. Now for the rant. The series has stagnated. While C&C4 lost C&Cs roots it doesn't mean stop trying. I think the devs tried to take the ground control 2 route. And it might have worked if things had been done differently. Instead of pretending C&C4 doesn't exist, instead accept the truth and reality and honesty of the situation and consider how things can be improved on. The mistake is in the execution of the idea. Not the idea itself. Things just need to be mixed better. As for how, that's a different conversation. Suffice to say C&C has stagnated for a long time now and the fear of another C&C4 causes devs to not even try to make another C&C. I don't blame C&C for that. I blame the people in denial and lying when they pretend the truth is anything then what it is. Devs can not work with dishonesty and delusion. You want them to do better? Then YOU do better. Set a better example yourself first and foremost. Then take a moment to consider context instead of generalizing and jumping on a blind hate wagon devoid of context. Actually consider why with very specific reasons. Maybe a reason like "Not enough base building" or "Can't build walls". Because so many people pretend C&C doesn''t exist and lie to themselves and others alike the end result is zero constructive (or any) feedback. Which means the devs can't make a better C&C. Because the players don't even want to think about mistakes in the first place. I've read the comments. I've seen the number of times people pretend and lie about how C&C doesn't exist. It's the dishonesty that bothers me. Which is exactly the problem. It's a bad game but taking note of WHY that is is important. And that can't be done if you are pretending and living a lie in denial. Even bad feedback is better then no feedback. If devs don't get constructive feedback (for better and worse alike) then they can't work with you. You ensure that if you don't even take note of what actually exists. Which you do even if you pretend otherwise. Stop pretending and be more clear and accurate with honest communication. Because I for one don't trust a liar. Why then would the devs? The problem isn't mistrust. The problem is not even knowing why for what reasons. Reasons you yourself refuse to even talk about or even give any thought with context about when you pretend and live a lie. Instead of considering that a lot of people pretend a problem goes away by ignoring it. Which has never once worked in reality. So why pretend otherwise? Part of the blame lies with the devs, for giving in to companies that rush their games (EA. Never trust that company). But part of the blame also lies with the players for the denial, dishonesty and hate that is devoid of context. If anything I think the players are even more at fault then the devs. It's caused the devs to remain confused about what the players actually want. What other result can there be then stagnation and worse (yes, worse) C&C games? If games worse then C&C4 isn't enough to convince people to take a more honest approach then what will? If you enable and encourage denial, lies and ignorance then of course the devs stumble around like idiots. So can people please stop turning a blind eye and actually give the devs something to work with instead? "This mechanic in C&C4 doesn't work because of Y reason. This went well in C&C3." Something like that. That's much more helpful then "I lie to myself and others". I think we all want to see C&C do better, but first and foremost enough of the denial and delusion and dishonesty. If I, a random stranger on the internet can't trust you when you pretend reality is anything other then what it is, then how can the devs? You might misturst them. But maybe there's a reason they can't trust you too. If there's no trust, at least in regards to taking people at their word, then it all falls apart. Just who was dishonest? If the answer is yourself then do better. If you make sarcastic dishonest comments then consider why that causes misunderstandings and encourages dishonesty. I see nothing funny about dishonest sarcasm that lies to people which causes situations like this (and worse). It all comes down to honesty. Say what you mean and mean what you say. All I'm saying is honesty is key. Misunderstandings are one thing. But you know when you lie with intent and mean to do it. If you're one of those people LYING to yourself and others. So can we stop doing that and make it about honest flaws which devs can take note of to make better C&C games? Case in point, everything gets worse with lies and denial. EA has their flaws, but I've seen a lot more lying from the side of the players themselves. I think this is a big part of the problem. If you're going to be a hater, at least be honest about it. If anyone gives you flak for being a hater then remind them that they are a hypocrite hating on you. No, seriously. Please do that and call people out. If they get too then you get too. If anything I think more bad arguments will help lead to better outcomes iin the end. But who even has the courage to have them? KZbin censership (and whatever companies delete strong opinions) don't help matters either.
