08.07.07 - BATTLECAST PRIMETIME DEBUTS AUG 14!
Check out the new teaser trailer! The revolution begins on August 14th when Battlecast Primetime premieres right here for the new Command & Conquer TV!
WATCH NOW!
A real let down to say the least
!
Although it looks okay, I recon they should have just come out with it, rather than building up hopes for better things
!
And Here's a link to the Odyssey joke(prank):

You guys seem to think that when we announce something no matter what it is that it detracts from what else we are doing.
LISTEN: This show is not detracting at all from our patch and MOD SDK efforts. Patch 1.07 is currently in QA and we are getting some localization text issues worked out. Once that clears, the patch will be en- route to our final approval process and live. I don't have an exact time frame yet because of this localization issue, but it will be out this month.
The team working on this show is completely seperate and different from the team working on our patches and such. Neither affects the other.
This show is going to be like no other video game show you have seen before. In Korea there are 2 RTS tv show that largely follow Starcraft tournaments, leagues, etc. Blizzard has no official relation to the show other than "positive reinforcement" and occasional sponsorships. We actually looked at those shows and that market for some inspiration, but what we are doing is entirely driven out of our studio here and by our team.
This is as official a show for Command & Conquer straight from EALA as one could ask for right now :o)
The community for C&C is huge and deserves a cool show like this. We feel this will be a brand new media and entertainment opportunity for the community and has the ability to be driven by the community as well.
I'm looking forward to your feedback and input, this is a brave new world and i'm excited to be apart of pursuing it.
Thanks,
APOC
I would have been far more excited if they'd worked on the patch and finished it instead of wasting time researching and creating this! This would have been better off announced straight away clearly, instead of announcing it days before as" C&C3 revolutionized" or later on after something else!
