"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

Yeah WIC is awesome and it can run fine on one of my unupgraded PCs. The RA3 engine (C&C4's has a bit more features) is not SAGE, its RNA from what I've heard. It it suppose to be better that SAGE I think. I'm not a wiz with engines so if I'm wrong (do your research first though) don't go yelling that I'm an idiot.

RNA is just an updated version of SAGE (which is an updated version of Westwood 3D). I don't know how much better it is, but the graphics are still quite outdated.

I'm not a wiz with engines so if I'm wrong (do your research first though) don't go yelling that I'm an idiot.

Nor am I, and I wouldn't insult anyone even if they were really wrong about the engines.

The other points of the interview have been already known for some time, except for the Frank Klepacki part.
