Command and Conquer: Generals


Recommended Posts

no it doesnt, westwood need to get there act together and finish there current projects like Red Alert3 and Command And Conquer tiberian Twilight.

If they wanted to get into the 3d rts genre they should have made it a whole new series rather then milking the command and conquer brand for all its worth, people will see it see command and conquer get in and play it and bebamboolzed why theres no GDI, NOD, Allies. Soviets.

Actually ill concede it does look cool the game but I just dont feel comfortable with the idea behind it I feel they should be working on what made them good the next C&C redalert, or maybe even another dune. You dont see Blizzard running off workin gon 10 other projects milking say the warcraft name on some other similar game, no they put there heads together and work on a game till there ready to release it, besides being irrated when they delay the release of their games, probably for the best, I dont recall ever having a problem with a blizzard game.

Ah eitherway Im not expecting to see Generals this year, but in the end ill probably still buy it or hire it etc.

Sorry to say, but the game suck. Man, it stutters like crap, bearly playable for me. The sound stutters, the gameplay stutters, everything stutters... even the damn menu stutters. WTF is Westwood thinking by releasing this game?!

I finally gave up and saved myself a gig of free space. (uninstall)

First of all, Osiris: The same thing could have been said about milking the Command & Conquer franchise when Red Alert was released. Where were GDI and NOD? But you know what? The game turned out better than the original. So know they bring us C&C Generals. No GDI, NOD, Allied or Soviets, but will someone be complaining about some future release that doesn't inlcude GDI, NOD, Allied, Soviets, Chinese, Americans and GLF? The fact that they put Command & Conquer on the box just lets me know that it will be another kick-ass RTS game from Westwood, regardless of the story involved.

As far as Blizzard, Warcraft and Starcraft sound pretty similar to me... And to Westwood's credit, they didn't anounce Generals three years ago and change the whole project twice since the original announcement (*cough* Warcraft III *cough*) and still not release anything but vaporware.

nomis_nehc: What the heck are you talking about? Installing and playing Generals? Let me know what stores you shop in!

Ironman273: Red alert wasnt better then the original. My point was simply why cant westwood be a little more like blizzard and get one project over at a time, instead of running 10 different ways with the same bloody brand name thus C&C.

I personally am sick of seeing spin offs, red Alert only intrested me because Kane was in it if you recall. I just want westwood to put the technology it appears generals has and get there ass moving and finish the C&C Saga. then they can run off all the little spin offs they want. At this rate no one will even remember the storyline for GDI and Nod, be burried under, soviet vs allies sotryline and battles, and china vs america storylines.

I cannot wait, either :)

I currently run www.CnCGenerals.com with Maniac (of red2.org) and netsprinter (I have worked with him in the CnC community for a long time), but it is not my site. I just want to make it clear that I do have a webmaster position along with Maniac (who owns the site) and ns, so it is not mine.

Personally, as long as this game does not have silly crap like RA2 it will be the best RTS in a loooooooong time!

They did....

no I was referring to making a realistic 3d rts. I meant rather then a fantasy RTS aas Dune was, well Sci Fi anyway.

As real as possible seems to be what there going for, but I jusat donmt think they should be using the C&C sorry C$C brand to cash the game in.

And I also think Westwood should get there ass into gear and finisht he actual Command and COnquer series off, thats all.

They can do whatever they wan't, its their license. I think you should not talk till you have played the game, either. They are not milking it, either. Total Annihilation 2 (http://voodooextreme.com/comments.taf?postID=27055), now that's milking it.

    • ChatGPT can now connect to Outlook, Teams, Gmail, Google Drive, and other services by Pradeep Viswanathan Apart from regular consumers, ChatGPT is also growing fast among business users. In fact, OpenAI now has 3 million paying (Enterprise, Team, and Edu) business users, up from 2 million in February. During a live stream today targeted toward business users, OpenAI announced that ChatGPT can now connect to more external services to pull in real-time context and provide more useful responses for users. The following are some of the external connectors available in ChatGPT Deep Research for Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise, and Edu users: Microsoft Outlook Microsoft Teams Microsoft SharePoint Dropbox Box Google Drive Gmail Liner In addition to the above, IT admins in organizations can now build custom ChatGPT connectors using the popular Model Context Protocol (MCP). These custom connectors will allow organizations to make use of the data available inside their proprietary systems and other apps within ChatGPT, alongside pre-built connectors. Today, the ChatGPT team also announced a new feature called record mode for ChatGPT Team users on macOS. The record mode feature will allow users to capture meeting audio and get meeting transcriptions, meeting action items, summaries, etc. ChatGPT record mode will also be available to Plus, Pro, Enterprise, and Edu users in the future. Kevin Weil, Chief Product Officer at OpenAI, tweeted the following regarding today’s launch: While ChatGPT's new connectors and features mark significant progress, it faces a formidable challenge in the enterprise market against Microsoft 365 Copilot, which enjoys native integration within the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
    • I decided to give this a try and, wow. I like it. One of the most customizable browsers I've ever used I think, and it even has the classic menu bar. That's one of the reasons I've stuck with Firefox for so long. Not sure if I'll make this my main browser yet but it's looking good so far.
    • No messaging app from a large commercial entity is really encrypted to a point they are actually unable to access your content. If you trust whatsapp and friends to do this either you are a fool.
    • From my point of view this seems like a good thing? Option to pay as you go in an otherwise Subscription app? Yes Please! Free Windsurf + BYOK = Now I have a reason to try Windsurf.
    • I think you've hit the nail on the head! I logged out after disabling Cookie AutoDelete, relaunched Firefox, and returned to the site, and no pop-ups. Before claiming victory, I'm going to leave this extension deactivated, and I'll let you know the results in a few days' time. If it's this extension that's the problem, I'll uninstall it, as well as report the problem I've encountered. Thank You!
