Picked up my copy :-) playing now

Will be playing it soon.

As expected. The AoE remasters sold gangbusters, no reason why C&C couldn't have the same success, if they do a good job.

Joseph Kucan is bloody ageless. Maybe it's magic, maybe it's Tiberium.

Gonna let the user reviews flow a bit... ...then amend my sig.

That’s cool. I’ve played Tiberian Sun + Firestorm, Red Alert 2 + Yuri’s Revenge, and Red Alert 3 and really enjoyed those games. Still have them too and this kind of makes me want to go back and play them again.

Damn it. Came here to make a thread about it. The thing is most probably won't be playing it until next week or so.

why? It's Friday - perfect time to fire it up

Really wish EA would make another one. Preferably C&C Generals 2.

The last attempt didn't look half bad.

But EA is one of those companies that doesn't seem willing to commit to a PC exclusive.

Nice bought it.

I'd rather they make a C&C4.

And no, C&C4 has never, ever existed, ever. Please be aware that I am currently holding a fork, and I have an irresistible compulsion to insert something sharp and pointy into the eye of anyone who disagrees with the statement in my last sentence.

I'm someone who really liked C&C3 and I think the Scrin was a nice addition for a third faction.

I would replay those games again, if it weren't for the fact that they are locked at 30fps.

Oooooooohhhh you mean that C&C4

Which, as you know to be factually, positively true, does not exist yet.

Remember. Fork. Eye.

You know it's not a FPS?

I just started playing Outerworlds and I want to jump into C&C after that for a marathon. I'm pretty sure if I start C&C I won't be able to stop for anything else.

One of those games I really loved but don't want to dive back into in case the magic is gone, might be best to keep the memory.

@pc_rocks: yeah I'm having trouble putting it down...

Man, I've been playing OpenRA and that kinda ruined the charm for me, since it's free and all. Might pick this up later down the line.

Well-deserved comeback. C&C was the best RTS series of the pre-StarCraft era.

Never played any of them, but the series sure has a lot of fans. I don't know how stupid EA must be to not take advantage (in a good way, not just drilling their fans) of this IP.

Try window 10 LTSC, I'm installing next week for a go.

You will only find it ebay, pirated of course. Unless you are will to shell out the money for it officially, although you may even need other criteria to fulfill. Obviously it was made of sensitive stuff, not us average consumer. But it sworn by a load of gamers and highly recommended.

Yeah, my upgrade to X299 ended windows 7, sucks I know.

I played a bunch of this when the decade edition for C&C came out. But a remaster had me all ears. Played a little bit of it and enjoyed every second.

Passing C&C Remastered. Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge are the ones I had fun with and hoping for a remaster.

My moneys all in for the Remake of RA 2, Yuri's Revenge, RA 3, RA3 Uprising. RA 1 not so much

@davillain-: Or a full blown remake! 3D graphics coupled with classic gameplay :)

@hardwenzen: I bet this is testing the waters for investment in a new installment

Brilliant game, brilliant remaster. My hope is that Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 will be remastered aswell.

My favorite C&C game. The laser towers and ion cannon were just plain cool.

Besides,

I prefer simple 2D graphics for these type of games instead of fancy isometric 3D. Yeah, I am old-fashioned.

You know, I'm generally not a fan of remasters (prefer remakes), but this is how you do it right.

Not only a visual overhaul, but all kinds of extra stuff, too. Not just a cash-in, a new-game price re-master of a game you can buy for 5 bucks...this is a tribute to the fans for a bargain deal.

Well done EA, you're almost back to "piece of shit status" (an upgrade from "scumbag of the industry"). Although who are we kidding, this is all Petroglyph. They probably worked on this as a passion project, saw the potential, and were like "Hey EA, want to make fans happy and make some money?" lol

I like the old school stuff too, looks almost hand drawn (could be for all I know). I'm a big fan of the "voxel" tech of later C&C games (i.e. Tiberian Sun), also.

Works fine on windows 7. Haven't had a single issue playing single or multi so far.

@mrbojangles25: the music is phenomenal - adds a lot

@mrbojangles25: I also liked the follow-up, Red Alert, though its gameplay was nowhere near as balanced as the original. The Soviets' weapons were far superior, especially their tanks. It just seemed unfair. That was until the Allies got their destroyers (or whatever those big gunboats were called), which could do extreme damage at extreme range.

indeed

Love it so far, price a bit steep for just those 2 but the online function is great.

Started playing it and damn. It brought all the good memories. I never played them before. Tiberium Sun was my first game in C&C universe.

Well, if that's the case then it will be really interesting to see how they approach a new entry. It will definitely end up causing controversy in one side of the aisle or another in this day and age. If you know what I mean. I think Generals 2 would be a much safer bet to workaround it.

I bet plenty of people would enjoy either/or but you may be right.

I'm interested, but it's a bit pricey imo. £17.99 is a bit much for a remaster of an ancient game imo. I'll get it when it's about £10.

Blast from the past.

Damn, I remember working at Software Etc. when this released. Best memory of it was destroying the White House with some massive space laser or something out of a selection of targets for the ending. I could really use that right now. May buy.

Bought it. Liking it so far. I have some issues, but I think it's just 'cause OpenRA didn't care for nostalgia.

Controls aren't really that great in the remaster compared to OpenRA but I am still having fun.

I really hope this remastered lead to EA to reboot CnC in next gen graphics. we were getting generals 2 but sadly it become F2P MP games.

we barely have RTS games anymore.

@ghosts4ever: I'm looking forward to Age of Empires and Iron Harvest, both look excellent.

But yeah, this succes should renew EA's interest in a new command and conquer game.

Put please for the love of God don't make it F2P.

Having only played generals and Red alert 2. this is first time i actually played original CnC and its good opportunity to remastered for one who missed it.

really enjoying it.

Why would you even put that in the universe...

Just like in a scene from the 1996 film Independence Day?
