Most of the GDI military personel really needs a proper pair of military uniform and a proper set of kevlar helmet, kevlar vest and oxygen mask instead of gay khakis and bulky helmets. They look more professional like in Tiberian Dawn and C&C 4 not like in Tiberian Sun and C&C3. It's kind of odd that the GDI high ranking officers in Tiberian Sun is the one that wear something right not like the rest. Nod on the other hand, their oufits are much coller than the GDI khakis.
The actor who portrays Tratos in this scene is Patrick Bauchau. He played the role of Dr. Sydney in the tv series The Pretender, and also had a recurring role as the vampire elder in Kindred: The Embraced.
I have to admit I'm rather bummed that they seemed to write off Umagon's character in this scene. Add to that the destruction of the Kodiak....bugh.
Also, watch the vid carefully and you'll see the M41 Pulse Rifle from Aliens making a cameo in the hands of one of the GDI soldiers. :)
The Tacitus was an ancient artifact, that contained informations about the Tiberium, and about the universe. It hold Scrin knowledge, this is reason why Kane wanted it soo much...With the Tacitus he would have limitless power...Kane's Wrath was a cliffhanger, becouse the final moment was that Kane install the Tacitus to LEGION...With this, he made something...it's possible he made a bad act even for his own plans...Who knows what LEGION did after that...
the ''tacitus'' is the key to everything. only cabal and tratos can translate it. the ''tacitus'' is from scrin. all the information of tiberium is in the ''tacitus'' so if you want to win in a world full of tiberium you need the ''tacitus''
You really need to play both sides to get everything. In Nod we see the Tacitus in pieces, but don't know why. The Kodiak's crash is probably the reason.
it's just me or GDI and NOD last misions from the original tiberiun sun happen the same time cause in the first GDI mision of firestorm the Kodiak is lifting of from that Nod pyramid from the last GDI mision and they lose contact with the philadelphia wich is destroyed at the last NOD mision.
The Concept of Firestorm is that you're McNeil; but you're not aboard the Kodiak when it goes down. If you listen in 2:02 you can hear McNeil talking to Eva. But that is the only reference you ever hear of him during the game.
Truth be told, I think EA could have done a lot worse in C&C3, which turned out to be a great RTS game. And Westwood? A lot of people don't know this, but after they got "murdered," they went on to form a studio called Petroglyph and made Star Wars: Empire at War, which had almost unplayable MP. And their newest game, dubbed Universe at War: Earth Assault, well, read up the reviews, play the demo, and try and bash C&C3 again. That's all I have to say.
So tell me. How is C&C3 bad? b/c the game is actually fast enough to play online? b/c it actually makes sense to make infantry this time? b/c UI is much refined? I would say that SP was pretty dull, with dull music and all, but if you look at Supreme Commander, a great RTS with unimpressive SP experience, and after Sim-City Societies, a game I can just cite review scores to tell how bad it is, I think it's damn impressive EA actually cared to make C&C3 a good game in both MP and SP.
Unfortunately, the game is too fucking unstable to boot. There have been major incompatibility issues primarily with multiplayer, and whatever patches are available tend to screw up the game more than it could help. As it is, fixing is only available for programmers. Westwood games, I do not recall the games crashing on me on my older PC and yet Yuri's Revenge and Tiberian Sun have crashed on me on my current PC multiple times mainly because my specs are "too high" (i.e. XP not working well.)
6. It's not my opinon, but plenty of people didn't like McNeil being the commander instead of YOU. Not me, though. I loved TS franchise's SP experience. Firestorm was THE FINEST, great FMVs and all. But like I said, I HATED the MP and many others agree.
You may say who cares about MP, but even at TS's days, the focus of RTS genre shifted to multiplayer. So games like Generals, which had bad SP but had best MP in C&C games to date, actually makes sense; it shouldn't have been labeled C&C, is all.
Uh, the point of having a good single-player campaign is so that we can get longevity out of the game. Multiplayer has nothing but artificial time limits on it. If community stops playing it, the game is permanently dead.
BTW, I have played Generals, and have seen nothing but "Rush, WMD, disconnect, repeat" in 2005-2007, and this is someone that has a top of the line PC and a cable connection to boot.
5. Unique elements such as Ion storm, blue tiberium, and tiberium critters, although very unique and nicely fitting in TS's singleplayer experience, didn't work in multiplayer. Why? In mutiplayer, especially in RTS, only thing you want to be unpredictable is your opponent. I had disruptor drops and mammie drops ruined by Ion storms, foward bases blown to hell b/c of random explosions, and when you lose a match because those factors worked against you, well, that's not good experience.
3. Awfully slow multiplayer. I can count the times I played a full match of multiplayer in TS in Westwood Online without significant frame-rate drop.
4. Units that messed up the way how each faction should play. Combination of carry-all + disruptor/mammy II made GDI a prime midegame drop/harrasment faction, while Nod artillery made Nod a midgame turtler. If you don't see anything wrong with that, then well, there you go.
1. Units like hunter-seeker that totally ruined the lategame experience. Seriously, a unit that kills a random unit/structure in one hit?
2. The Voxel engine, which made system requirements to the game much higher than other RTSs at the time, and still failed to produce any substantial graphical prowess or gameplay innovation. Only thing it did was to slow down the multiplayer to almost unplayable level. Seriously, Westwood, what was that?
Like I said to the other guy's comment, try and say something more than just "plain bad," because gameplay-wise, especially in multiplayer, Tiberian Sun was awful.
Ha, I've been playing since dune2; The REAL beginning of CNC. What can I say? Well, EA is destroying the industry. A once great series (CNC) is now un-original, over-done and plain trashy.
If you would, can you enlighten me on how exactly C&C3 is "now un-original, over-done and plain trashy"? Don't get me wrong, I think C&C3'sGDI FMVs left A LOT to want for, and there were and still are some issues to work out; but seriously, is it that bad?
Certainly, I can see where you can come from. Hell, there are so-called hardcore Armored Core fans bitching and whining about new control schemes that actually make sense! And C&C3 did leave out many things that made Tiberian Sun a treat to the hard-core fans. Plus, I am totally aware of the trend where EA buys a great game franchise along with the studio, and makes another EA studio to create a totally shitty sequel that completely destroys the prestige of that franchise.
So, it's easy to see it that way for C&C3, especially after Generals, a fine RTS that never should have been labeled C&C(in a way, it's like the new Dodge Charger. But that's very American analogy, ain't it?). Yes, I am not trying to mindlessly defend EA, as I am opposed to mindlessly bashing EA.
So please, elaborate. I am ready to listen and be convinced.
i guess they didn't have money to rehire Biehn to play the role of McNeil again :(
