Tiberium Wars review, Spoilers inside, you have been warned! Options

SPOILERS!


In this review, I review the game as a C&C

Let's start with the FMV's.... The FMV's were boring actually, and eww at the blue GDI, Cheezy. Kane isn't who I recognized as Kane.
The characters acted bad, I did like the news thing and the GDI guy, Billy de Williams acted as, along with the Nod dude who briefs you. It just didn't fit good enough. Could use more in battlefield videos. 4\10

Next thing will be the missions. The missions weren't really good. Mostly boring long lasting ones. Could use more speeches. Like in the first TS GDI mission "where the hell are those reinforcements?!" and text triggers. The camera function thing was annoying. I did get some bit of C&C atmosphere in the Nod mission where you protect these trucks inside your base, with Kane popping up and sending you reinforcements (the avatars) The other missions were mostly boring. Some were a bit hard and fun to play. The first Scrin mission was horribly boring, you have to get a lot of units to destroy the GDI bases. 6\10

Storyline was pretty ok, however it didn't reach the deepness it should be, C.A.B.A.L should be included along with the other mech technologies (Technology story)
The Technology looks backwards.... No further comments 5\10

Atmosphere (Music included) was quite boring compared to TS's The lighting of the missions were just too standard, didn't really fit to what it should be.
3\10

Other things:
The way the multiplayer works, is cool. The unit spamming isn't fun, and should been avoided.
The way the scrin was..... too bug alike! Superior airforce, bad ground units.
Squad system ? ...... OH-NO
Walls and gates cut out..... not cool
What happened to the distruptors and other things like the laser fences and firestorm walls ? They should have included or brought this technology further.
The liquid tiberium bomb should kill everyone on the battlefield shortly if it really was that deadly in the last GDI mission.
Tiberium ? in Firestorm we saw tiberium envolving into different mutations and types of tiberium. And they just "disappeared" ?
You should feel like "WOW! I WON THE GAME" at the end, but I just felt "that was it?!"
The EVA voices weren't good. The game was unserious, the selection sounds were awful.

Overall: As a C&C it's bad, but as a game it's cool. Not something for real C&C fans though, 4\10 as a C&C, 7\10 as a game.

More to come perhaps.

From what you wrote there, you prove yourself as inmature. The actors do not play good at all. Kane never called you "my son" in TS, you're not his son or slave, whatever. You're just a commander. The music doesn't have a quiet, or action packed style, it sounds like a zombie execution ritual thing. EA rushed the hell out of Westwood, making them finish TS half way finished, they made it worse. And then they took the title "Command & Conquer Red Alert 2" and told us it was the sequel to Red Alert 1, it doesn't have ANYTHING saying that it's a part of the C&C universe, because these are supposed to be connected. Also Bittah Commander said that there are things that show that WWII happened in RA2, thus being a plothole. Also they came up with the game "Command & Conquer Generals" Which had NOTHING, and I repeat NOTHING with C&C at all. Back to C&C 3, The name doesn't have any thing related to tiberium, there were no real envolving in technology or tiberium. Nothing special, etc. The selection voices "Down with GDI" are made to be cool, but they're childish, also they included the ugly scorpion tank from generals. The most okay unit with the whole game is the GDI engineer. You have no different choices in skirmish mode, no ion storms, no explosive blue tiberium (I didn't see atleast), no veins, no fona, no cabal, no forgotten etc. The ion cannon is just wierd, and what happened to the multi missile? The chemical missile? The use of tiberium weapons went back. There were supposed to be new exciting technologies. And don't you dare to say that the technology became impractical, you know it's a lie. There's no way you'd go back if the technology was impractical, you'd research on better technology.

woah, somethings gotten up crashkings ass

..... Explain us everything they did and why! And also tell a way everything lead into Tiberium wars!
Think twice before saying something! WHY did it fit better with a land based APC than a water one for GDI for example?
