Command & Conquer: Remastered - Guess who's back?

[Kane Lives]

Normally, I'm loathe to shill for EA. But since we had a Warcraft III: Refunded thread, I figure we might as well have the little brother equivalent.

Enjoy the trailer:

For those who are lazy, here's a written summary instead:

• Made with the help of some of the original Westwood guys from both Petroglyph (of recent Grey Goo and 8-bit Army fame) and Lemon Sky Studios
• Will contain Tiberian Dawn + Red Alert + all expansions + console exclusive missions
• Is optimized to run at 4k, so rejoice you big monitor fags
• Has all their sprites reworked to match the new high resolution, as well as a reworked UI. (Don't worry nostalgia fags, the sidebar is still there.)
• Will have a toggle in-game to toggle between sweet OG pixelated nostalgia, and crisp HD-DVDBD graphics (single player only for some reason)
• Upscaled FMVs(!) that seemed to be taken from the master copy
• Remastered music by Klepacki (and his band) himself
• Will be released on Steam (sorry EGS)
• Has some other misc goodies. Looks like to be behind the scene stuff which fans would appreciate.
• Launching 5th June 2020.

I'll probably grab it. Lately EA has been actively trying to stop being so shitty it seems, so I'm gonna see for myself if they succeeded

Klepacki's coming back to lend his talents?

Even brought his own band, apparently. I don't really like his work after Red Alert 3 so it's a toss-up whether it'd be good or not.

Even at his worst his still above-average to decent when compared to most video game composers

Frank is also a good dude and I hope this nets him more time in the spotlight.

I never got to play these games on multiplayer, looking forward to it.

 

[Bassomatic]

I never got into the series, I didn't like the economy of it. But I have a soft spot for dune 2 (and 2000) that used same engine, I hope to see them re mastered.

I'm very happy to see this coming out because it's a big history for so many people and I'm glad that's offered for the many fans I far don't dislike it it just wasn't my flavor of RTS.

 

[Crabbo]

If its better than wc3r (that is, if its functional enough to actually count as a game) then ill probably grab it.
I do my best to reinforce a company when it makes positive changes.
I still wont touch their rancid trash, but positive and negative reinforcement can have a good influence

 

[Homersexual]

I'm rubbing shoes in lotion in anticipation.
I know it's from RA2 don't @ me.

 

[garakfan69]

Wow, I can't wait to buy more games I already own again!
Thanks EA! I love this totally not creatively bankrupt industry cashing in on nostalgia and idiots too dumb to get an old game running.

Well, at least it's not another fucking mobile game...

 

[The Shadow]

I'm a fan of C&C way more than the Blizzard style of RTS. Hoping it turns out good.

 

[MediocreMilt]

So if I want to make a tank, do I mine some Tiberium/Ore, or just send EA another dollar?

 

[MuuMuu Bunnylips]

Eh, another 'remastered' game.

They don't even add anything; they just make things more shiny.

 

[JongleJingle]

KANE LIVES! Maybe, it's EA

Now revive that Republic Commando style Tiberium Wars game you guys were doing and MAYBE I'll fork over my tard bux.

There is Renegade X.

C&C Renegade was such an underappreciated game.

 

[Dom Cruise]

That's cool, but where's Red Alert 2?

 

[The Penultimate Warrior]

Will it still have the AI that only attacks the northernmost target, and can be walled into its own base?

 

[Fagnacious D]

I wonder if they'll remake Red Alert 2 and Tiberium Sun.

That trailer mentions they not only include every expansion (sans Sole Survivor for obvious reasons) but also the N64/PSX exclusive maps as well.
