Command and Conquer: Rivals announced (mobile game, Android pre-alpha out today)

[Deleted member 5535]

Take a classic beloved IP then destroy it, what reaction do you think will happen?
I understand the sentiment at least, wouldn't be an issue if they didn't call it C&C

Don't change the fact that it's childish as fuck

Yeah this thread is reacting just about how I expected them to react

Yup

 

[Deleted member 3925]

Garbage.

 

[Muad'dib]

This wounds me.

Kane doesn't deserve this.

 

[Araujo]

You could easily port every single Command & Conquer, ask 9 bucks a pop and people would buy it. Just a straight up port... do the Square Enix thing. But this? Fuck this.

 

[KingSnake]

Looks like a pretty cool mobile game. I'll give it a try.

People acting like C&C was still somehow alive until this announcement are funny.

 

[introspective squid]

Anyone else thinks it's funny that Seth is shown as a selectable NOD Commander even though Kane killed him halfway in the original game's NOD campaign?
Who wants to play as that guy?

 

[Tacitus]

Ah damn. I guess I'll have to try it... I bought C&C4 after all.

From god, to Kane, to Seth, to mobile.

Command&Conquer is already dead, stop it EA.

 

[Mondy]

 

[Majukun]

command and conquer..for a new generation!

me: FUCK YOU, EA

 

[Vern]

I like how there has been one conference so far and we already know it is gonna be the worst one. E3 can only improve from here.

Good job good effort EA.

[Wayfaerer]

Not surprised, but it still hurts.

This was everyone in the chat I was in.
I don't understand why they thought this was gonna win them any sort of points with how they revealed it.
I knew it was command and conquer the instant I saw the screen.

 

[FriendlyNPC]

This game seems to be Metroid Prime Federation Force levels of "We wanted another game in the franchise but not this."

 

[Vern]

Ah damn. I guess I'll have to try it... I bought C&C4 after all.

I had to have been like 12 at the time but I still remember it so clearly. Absolute classic.

 

[Dot Matrix]

Looking forward to [insert abandoned ea property] mobile....

 

[francium87]

Hope AoE4 is good...

 

[Admiral Snackbar]

Fuck everything about this. Hooooly wow the disrespect.

 

[CountAntonio]

Can't wait to give it a shot looked pretty fun honestly. Always looking for more mobile games.

Some of the reactions in here...yeah forums.

 

[Noriea]

The whole thing was pretty cringe. Having the announcers was a terrible idea.

 

[b33r]

Yeah I'll try it. But what's up with the pre register? I thought we could download it now?

Ubisoft would have to bring back Mr caffeine, and spend 40 minutes with just dance featuring someone worse than Jason derulo

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Fuck off EA.

 

[jelmerjt]

I'm crying right now :(

 

[Nobility]

RIP C&C.

It's been real.

I can feel the pain.

[Darkmaigle]

Game looks fun. C&C isn't some sacred property to me so I don't really care. How can you disrespect a series that didn't even take itself seriously?

 

[Deleted member 152]

I am crying.

 

[Moff]

If it's free and has Red Alert Factions I will try it.
Just give me Soviets.

 

[Kitsunelaine]

Not like this.

not like this.

 

[Nintendo Switch]

Fuck EA. This is so pathetic. I can't put words...

I'm just... wow.

Click to shrink...

I actually think it's a beautiful reinvention of the rts genre for mobile phones.

 

[ShinySunny]

Kane doesn't deserve this.

Click to shrink...

Dude...I forgot how he looked like.
I thought they were introducing a random Neo-Nazi skinhead as the real enemy.
But then I realized...wait, wasn't Kane a baldie?

 

[Kadzork]

 

[TheHunter]

Dear God no.

 

[Moebius]

I hate EA for doing this but maybe if this makes money they'll fund a REAL C&C game?

 

[Possumowner]

Ok, I'll give it a shot...but this looks like a spit on the grave of C& C

 

[dude]

As someone who has a lot of fond memories of the series, I get the outrage about this being a C&C game...
But the actual game looks kind of fun.

 

[Mondy]

Also can I just say, it is truly a sign of the end times when the most actual gameplay we get in an E3 conference is from a mobile game.

 

[soul]

Damn, C&C was my first PC game. I loved it so much. Shit really hurts.

 

[Tagyhag]

Click to shrink...

Wow, could these gamers be any more childish? Just take it like an adult and blindly love it already.

 

[Plumpbiscuit]

A revolutionary series turned into a broken-at-launch mobile game with the most generic "dude vs dude" cover I've ever seen.

Disgusting.

 

[Yopis]

So sad.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

LOL I have to see this

Click to shrink...

It was even better than the gif, there was some doubt until he said
"That announcer is so C&C"

 

[Muad'dib]

If anyone is interested, there's a modding group remaking C&C 2 Tiberian Sun on the C&C 3 engine. Looks very promising.

[Ronnie Poncho]

I'm ok with a good RTS on mobile if this holds up.

But if this is the only C&C EA are making, then this is a real shame.

 

[Isee]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, not like this. This is breaking my heart!
