    all the people complaining never played beta, and gamers are quick to predict the end of the world at the first sign of anything. if the game's actual concepts, not the engine or graphics, were flawed, then maybe theres a problem,

    Alright just played.. excuse me. STRUGGLED to play the beta. Lemme start of by saying the automatch making doesnt work. Tried it 3 times nothing so I joined a custom game of only 5 v 5 maps. Ok so the game begins and I must say, it looks like crap. HOW can CNC 4 look worse than CNC 3 or Red alert 3, I know alot of you are saying oh its the beta, but I fear its more than that, the engine shows its wear and tear here badly. Now onto the game, This is not command and conquer. This is some soon to be failed experiment by EA to change things. You spam the same units back and forth, capture points and keep your "base" command unit alive.Clicking on units is a pain since they are all tiny and clump up, so focus firing is a real pain in the ass. Most of the time your units dont even counter attack until you tell them too. My unit of orcas sat there being shot at for a good minute until I told them to attack, I didnt have any key pressed and they were on defensive too so maybe its a bug. Resource gathering is moronic, you get a chunk of tiberium dropped by the scrin and bring it back to your base for research points, back and forth thats it. Manual resource gathering, this game is less RTS and more Micro-managing-motherf%@ery. MMM. Thanks EA for the bad taste left in my mouth after the beta, this makes me regret spending the $6 bucks to get this gamespot account. I could of used the money on a bottle of jack or something, at least then I can piss my money out without regret.

    Don't blame EA games. They gave the BETA's to Gamespot, and it's their decision to be greedy. Gamespot - you have blown it this time!

    Hmm, amusing,, they totally forgot that whomever bought C&C RA3 Premier edition is supposed to get a beta access to a "future C&C game"... so im supposed to get a beta key without paying!

    Sonicpan said it well, are we not helping you by berating your beta? LOL
    But id be interested if it was free and Id even throw in a couple of semi intelligent comments and positive criticisms/sarcasms

  • Sonicpan

    Posted Nov 25, 2009 6:38 am PT

    I though Betas were for free. Why i'm supposed to pay? I will take that as a thanks for helping EA fixing their own bugs and for trying to make the game better.I wonder WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE ??????

    "gamespot screwed up this time, pay 2 play a beta, screw that..sorry but betas arent that great, i should know i'm in the MAG beta and its okay, but could be better."
    I guess that makes you a veteran tester!!! Yeah!
    ...
    I've been in over 40 beta tests and 6 alphas, all of fairly large budget gaming companies, and not indie ones.
    Sure tests aren't great but paying to be a subscriber and get in on these features is part and parcel of the whole deal. I never paid ofc but some people do. (They ask me to test because I am skilled and have several pcs to test on.)
    So yeah, when you try a few more betas then you can say things like "i should know"

    silly newbs... paying to play betas has been going on for years now. It's nothing new. And I'd much rather pay Gamespot than Fileplanet.

    Pay to beta test? It should be get paid to beta test! (Like some other non big but still extremely popular developers do). Saying that, I was in the closed beta of C&C 3 and RA3, and ofcourse bought both (including the expansions). But I didn't have to pay for the closed betas then.
