Your impressions after some E3 news

[DuRiN]

I know it is VERY early to ask stuff like this, but to start talking about CnC 3. We saw now like 6 pictures and an additional video. What do you think of the graphics? How do you think the game is going to develop? And so on...

Well til now CnC 3 looks very promising, tanks are impressive, the helicopters look great too. I don't know if it was a good idea of putting Naval into the game, ofcourse all the RTS developers of each company are adding this "new" feature into the game. But like we saw/see in BfME 2, no one uses ships in competitive play, all the balanced maps don't have water. I hope EA LA can change this for CnC 3.

It seems they've upgraded the SAGE engine a lot, everything looks very cool. But lets wait, time will say.

Welcome back Commander.

Looked like all that was shown was cgi not ingame to me

[DuRiN]

Ofcourse it was CGI, the game is too early in build to show so much ingame. But we've seen enough to discuss about what we've seen.

Obviously, if you guys look at the screens, you can see this is def. in-game stuff, even the video (although JUST rendered using the SAGE engine).

As for EA pumping in more details and stuff into the engine, the min. specs or at least specs to run at mid/high settings are going to skyrocket compared to BfME2.

I really hope they speed up the engine so that units react as fast as we're used to in C&C. Also wondering as to what we'll see in map design. TBH the maps in Tib. Sun looked rather boring since most had sand textures.

Actually the videos are in game!

wow, didn't know that. The graphics are amazing, EA LA must've put a lot of effort into upgrading the SAGE engine.
