Command & Conquer 3

Post by dgood »

Aight, I did it, who else did, it's on and I love it since it's a lot like past c and c such as c and c original and red alert for game play style. Looks good too.

I've been reading really good reviews of the game. I just downloaded the Demo (hopefully) and will install it once I clear some space on my D: drive. I've enjoyed every C&C with exception to Tiberian Sun. That game blew, hardcore.

I played the demo. It was pretty neat, but I was disappointed how gimped vehicles looked compared to other versions. The Mammoth Tank looked TINY compared to other versions! :P

I must say it is a slight killer on video cards though. I had everything up almost all the way w/ a 1920x1200 resolution, and it chopped a good amount on my 7800 Go. I turned the texture quality to Medium and all was good again.

Overall, I like it. I may pick it up tomorrow myself.

yeah I max out at 1680x1050 on my monitor so medium to high on my x800xt is still good to go. mammoth tank in red alert were smaller than they are in this one.

I got it, and love it. My mobo should be coming back from RMA today, so I'll get to see how it runs on my main rig soon. =)

My friend bought this and I think the game was WAY too short.

Also the story line seemed like it was just thrown together.

I also thought Act 1 and 2 were REAL easy, then act 3 was almost impossible!!!

Just my thoughts - that was on the GDI side. He is playing the Nod side, but i figured it would be the same.

Online play was pretty cool :) But I wont spend $50 for a game :p or even $40!

I finally beat the GDI Croatia level. Did anyone else have problems here?

Haha, when has any C&C satisfied us as far as the story goes? I mean, with such "great" acting during the in-game videos and a "thrilling" plot, one could care less about the story. I'm all for the gameplay.

Plus, skirmish is where it's at.
