"run in as engineer girl with extra bombs, throw em onto the MCT, detonate detonate!" *building explodes* Okay, do it again. Which ever team does this fastest wins.

You obviously never felt the demoralizing power of a well-organized Stealth Tank rush. ;)

Anyway, the level environs remind me a lot of Ground Control 2 - gutted building skeletons, abandoned cars, etc.

it'd be cool seeing a building that looks like it's slowly being devoured by tiberium.. like bright green glowing rising damp  :p

I wouldn't count the mechs out altogether yet. We've seen that the GDI infatry seem to be all mechanized warriors but there may be some bigger versions too.  I suspect they went back to the tanks for some of the units as tanks are somewhat more recognizable.  The Titans were cool but....something about them.

I think hte pic is with hte reail gunz..

Either way, those barrels are attached to some slim thingy that tries to pass as a turret - it totaly defies it purpose.. The swivel mechanism is totaly unshielded and it looks less...rugged.

Re: OMG Tiberian Twilight
Klepacki is not doing the music for it. According to his website, he heard about the release of CnC3 when everyone else did, and EA did not contact him to do composing.  Klepacki was the chief audio engineer for the new star wars RTS, which means Petroglyph probably doesn't have a hand in it at all.  EA has successfully assimilated another franchise.  (Why they didn't do that to System Shock, I'll never know)  It's just not the same, not without the original team members (I'm sorry, Louis Castle is not enough) working on it, I feel it's just going to be another disposable RTS.  Another BFME.  Another Generals.  Now, I WILL be shocked if James D. Kucan makes an appearance, if they really are doing live-action cutscenes.

Re: OMG Tiberian Twilight
Who is doing the music?  TBH, Klepaki I think had run out of steam on the last few C&C's that he did.  RA2 was not as good (minus HellMarch 2 and 200m) as the original Red Alert soundtrack which rocked.  If Bill Brown is doing C&C3...I'll be just as happy.

Generals was a good one in my books.  But thats just me.

Re: OMG Tiberian Twilight
God forbid an EA game should ever have a trailer with in-game footage. :rolleyes:

He's done pretty much every C&C title, becoming as much a part of C&C as the sidebar, meaning that if it ain't got Klepacki, it ain't really C&C [see: Generals].

Re: OMG Tiberian Twilight
Agreed. The original soundtrack is still my favorite, hands down.

Re: OMG Tiberian Twilight
Klepacki did the music for every game up to Generals. even Sole Survivor (which I never played)  All of the music is available from his website, though it must be streamed.  There were a few tracks I believe that were made around Firestorm, or some other expansion pack by someone who Klepacki hired to make some tracks for him, but I'm not certain which ones weren't made by Klepacki.  But, all of the main games, he did the music for them.  Whoever did the Generals music...  Yuck. 

After buying the First Decade pack, I've been extracting all of the music files, and I do admit that RA2's tracks are quite skippable.  Though, it was neat to hear the good old tracks from CnC 1 redone, but they had a cheesy, action-movie sound to them.  (Of course, that's how it's meant to be, cause the game FEELS like a cheap, cheesy action flick)  The three I liked from RA2 were Hell March II, Blow It Up, and Tension, because it has that .. sorta signature sound that was used way back in Tiberian Twilight. 

As far as who does the current soundtrack for CnC3, I really don't care who does it.  EA is simply using the brand, the name to promote yet another game.  It'll never, ever feel the same as when it was just purely Westwood (and Virgin Interactive) instead of being guided by the greasy, slimy hand of EA.  Frankly, without Klepacki, it really doesn't have that atmosphere that was created with the first two games.  If the guy who's doing the music for Generals, then at least there will be some continuity in the "EA CNC".  To EA, it's simply a brand.  Doesn't matter who makes it to them, it'll sell just cause of a name!  Marketing...  Insanity...  goes hand in hand!

Klepacki lost his way after Red Alert, I think; frankly he will not be missed.
