[@Alienalloy]

this game makes a 56 year old man cry with as much happiness as when my daughter was born... your work is appreciated.. thankyou for your service.

[@Desolator84]

I have some minor complaints about the heavy vehicle animation. Tanks and vehicles in C&C Generals had the most immersive movement - gradual acceleration/deceleration, had to reverse sometimes for tight turns, turrets needed time to turn and lock, firing and being hit felt realistic, and, the sweetest detail of all - that short pause before explosion. Nowadays, everything is being over-animated in the wrong places - tanks jiggle as to look like their engine is running and do everything as if being ADHD (thus looking cartoonish), mechs make some up-down idle animation as if they are breathing living creatures for heaven's sake. But otherwise, game looks great. I especially dig the soundtrack.

[@danagoyette7932]

That cargo truck looks as wibbly-wobbly as corporate buses, with the super loose suspension. Every time I've had to ride on one of those, it's made me carsick. If your vehicle jitters as much as the one did in that cutscene, something must be broken, and it should be sent for maintenance!

@@minhducnguyen9276 Yeah that's what I was thinking. I actually assumed it hurts infantry too, so I've been running my infantry around it. The Tempest feels more like a reference to the Tiberium for sure.

[@Dan-bq1dz]

Get rid of that population cap and maybe we'll be cooking. Actually serious. Aside from that I like the art and sound design. Game seems to have good bones. I think the story could be interesting- I like the characters so far anyway. 11 missions per campaign is MISERLY though if any of them are tutorial-adjacent (this one is a tutorial, clearly). Current hopes: They roll out more story content in expansion packs (plural, hopefully) and we hit something closer to 50 missions or so at the end of the road, per side. Map editor. The maps are gorgeous for this game, an editor would be cool. Part of my fear for their beauty is that if these were painstakingly assembled, they wont drop an editor and they wont drop enough skirmish maps to give this game any life. Mod tools. I'd accept just stat editing and numbers changing in a .ini file until they're ready to release a GUI asset, but this is a pipe dream of mine, i have higher hopes for a map editor than mod tools, sadly. The lore here soft-retcons terrible parts of the bombshell verse or at least is a substantial leg-up on the.... 'threadbare' lore those games had on offer. Here's my honest bet though, from a cynic: its not gonna be a new true cnc. It's going to be another iron harvest. Initial sales will justify one overpriced content drop with a tiny number of new missions, 1-4 new units per side, and a small handful of maps, then shelve the game. The ladder community will immediately turn into a hostile sweatshow of meta builds and toxicity because of a lack of PVE game modes. Percieved poor balance and terrible map pools coupled with dated net infrastructure will cause the game to be multiplayer-dead within 3 months of launch. Initial modding interest will be huge, then a couple folks will dig in, discover the entire game is wrapped up in some byzantine encoded directory file structure impossible to access, tools will be non existent or perpetually 'coming soon' and the modding scene will be dead in 2 weeks. By year one the game will go on heavy discount to try and drum up interest but it'll be cooked and set to pasture by then. And you know what? i predict it wont deserve that fate, because it'll actually be a pretty good snappy CnC attempt. This will prompt incompetent hack writer game journalists to reiterate that RTS -and- PC gaming is dead. Gamers will wait for a return to form, disappointed that this wasn't it. Oh, and everyone will get sick of that stupid 'epic' meme unit the rolling ball the dynasty has instead of its mammoth/apocalypse and no one will use it except one "pro" player who runs a tournament into the ground with his stupid ball-build right before the last of the Esports money dries up because nobody really cares. Don't worry, it'll still somehow be better than stormgate.

[@failsafe123123]

I enjoyed playing RTS games ages ago, like Dune 2 in 90's, and all those C&C and so on. I dont think I could dive into this lake again. I thought it might be a good idea, but I think Im way pass the stage where infantry guy could kill tanks with the pistol. Personally I think that games like Blitzkrieg or WARNO or name any other modern RTS games changed this genre sooo much that it cant be reversed that much. This game just looks very arcade'ish. I guess I should be very eager to play a good nostalgia title... but Im not.

[@pieroog]

The biggest gripe I have is: units. They feel fake and cheap. Movement, shooting, there's no HEAVINESS to them (like in C&C Generals). Once I saw demo, I lost interest - which is pity because the game looks great overall (minus glowing halos around everything).

[@John315]

There are genres totally forgotten, that need to come back. One is RTS. I totally need a new DOW 40K. Done right this time, like the first one. Also turn based games, like XCOM. We need more of these two genres. We have enough FPS games.

[@TheUnkow]

Turn based will hardly come back. People who think before they act will almost never spend an addition dime on store items. The industry favors gambler mentality because casino mindsets took over the market. They put store items in baby games, people are always one step away from spending actual cash ... That's a lot more "important" than gameplay and lasting value to these people.

[@ICCUWANSIUT]

@@TheUnkow bg3...

[@0oTornado]

To be completely honest As Generals Old Player Fan this Game is 99% to Red alert than Generals Generals has its unique realistic sound effect and explosions Effects Generals must be more realistic RTS Just youtube "Generals Evolution Beta 0.3" and you will see true Red Alert 2 and Generals connection .

[@korsekil]

Yeah this is nowhere like Generals. It's more like C&C3, honestly, with Tempest being Tiberium, Dynasty being NOD, GDF being GDI, and Veti seem poised to be the Scrin. This is obvious when you see how construction happens - Generals was COMPLETELY different from the series in that you used construction units instead of simply deploying the building in any valid building area.

[@atifarshad7624]

I love Generals, but I don't consider it a real "Command & Conquer" game, since it's story and gameplay has nothing to do with the rest of the C&C games.

[@RobinvdTube]

It's gonna be great, i'm mega hyped for this and i'm buying a new pc for this =D current one is 15 years old XDDDD

[@justindurfee9375]

This is a total retcon of C&C's Tiberium universe right down to the gameplay and art style while the UI, color schemes and voices are straight out of Red Alert. It looks good and is graphically impressive but otherwise unoriginal. And I'm personally not a fan of the build area because it limits what you can do and hampers creativity, and that it's a collection of grid squares arranged in an irregular fashion around your existing buildings makes it so that you have to be choosy about where you put what. And I didn't see it in this demo, but if there's no ability to orient your structures on angles less than 90-degrees, that forces you to build in places with perfect right angles.

[@thefirstmember]

The reason why the tanks posed production is when you delete units from being constructed the first click pause production and the second click delete you have to click a third time to tell the building to start producing again.

Petty critique, but I don't really like modern RTS games with poor unit scaling, the infantry are practically bigger than the tanks, it's ridiculous.

[@vivsavagex]

To have realistic unit scaling means you either have clumsy controls needing to zoom in and out or you are restricted to only units that are of somewhat similar size. And thats not even to include buildings…i dont understand the need for realism. Are u one of those people that whines about things being unrealistic in movies with magic?…this is not a “modern” rts thing either. Most rts do this dating back to the classics.

@@Scorch0017 didnt say that it didnt exist but youre asking for an outlier to be the standard...and frankly, if i remember correctly act of war suffered from what i just mentioned. the human units looked like ants.

[@Scorch0017]

​@@vivsavagex I showed an example of a more or less traditional RTS with realistic scale. No, with default camera infantry units didn't look like ants there. Also, unlike what we can see in Tempest Rising, soldiers in AoW were given quite noticeable muzzle flashes and firing sounds and they didn't clip through each other and other units, which helped identifying them during combat and improved general readability - a thing, this game lacks altogether. Halo Wars series could be another example of a CnC-like base-building RTS, where units have believable scale. If we widen the criteria, I can name such games and series, as Company of Heroes, Ground Control, Dawn of War 2 and 3, World in Conflict, Joint task Force, EndWar. Hell, even in Generals and Tiberium Wars units didn't look that cartoony, just remember GLA Technical with a fully animated gunner in the back. I doubt, you could fit a basic rifleman on a recon vehicle in Tempest Rising. Infantry here is just too big, while vehicles and buildings are very small.
