"Zaptagious" over at the official C&C fourms posted up this information from PC Gamer in Sweden. It's from an interview with Samuel Bass.

- The resource system is not yet decided on, but the solid fact remains .. there will be NO harvesting.

- Work on C&C4 began after the release of C&C3: Tiberium Wars

- A new dynamic system called Strategic Environment, accommodates the game to make it fun and challenging regardless the level your gamer profile is.

- Samuel Bass admits the multiplayer system and online browser has been pretty bad and that it's been too complicated to get into matches. A completely new matchbrowser with bigger possibilities and constant chat windows will be included.

- The player will be more involved and present in the games FMV movies; The camera will be an entity in the world.

- Decisions made in the campaign will be harder to make to create a more memorable story.

- They ask about Frank Klepacki but they can't answer that right now, but they say they have exciting plans on how it will be controlled. (If they didn't have him in they could've just say so, but since they can't talk about it it seems like they have at least thought about it.)

- They want to keep down the system requirements

Hopefully they'll let you bump up the graphics to the TW level. I love my Video card, I don't want the effects go down just because they want to make the requirements avaliable to everyone (not that I'm against that, if it means sacrificing the high end graphics, so be it).

Meh, they should just raise the minimum requirements to the same level the most of the newest games (ARMA 2, for example) have at the moment and then make the graphics look much better than Tiberium Wars' graphics. Most people could still run it, since it's coming next year and people have time to upgrade their PCs.

Although I'm hearing that the SAGE engine can't handle much better graphics, I'm not sure about it.

Currently even C&C3 has better graphics than C&C4, and other RTS/RTT games released in 2007 (Universe at War and World in Conflict) have better graphics than C&C3. Actually, from what I've played Ground Control II (released in 2004) I can say that even it has better graphics than C&C3.
