No that isn't a typo. This is Bioware's new IP.

I guess I'll allow myself a sliver of hope for the C&C franchise as a whole, albeit slim.

Bioware, RTS, Frostbite 2... That's a pretty good formula.

Bioware is making a Star Wars MMO, Mass Effect 3, and now Command & Conquer game.


How many people they got at their fucking offices.

As a game Halo Wars is probably one of the best console RTSs... As a halo game though it was awful.

But back on topic: I first I was "Lord Pheonix DAMNIT WHY?" Then I saw Bioware and hope has returned.

As an RTS, canon aside, Halo Wars was the definition of mediocrity.

Victory Games, only recently renamed Bioware Victory (so they could slap the Bioware name on it) is making it.
I'm skeptical considering the c&c games ea has put out, but it does have Jon Van Caneghem (maker of Heroes of Might and Magic 1,2 and 3 and Kings Bounty).

The point being that when a highly regarded, experienced studio that has been doing RTS for decades sits down to make a Halo RTS, it winds up being garbage. Now, EA throws together a studio, throws it into BioWare, and says "make a new C&C game" and I'm not going to hold my breath.

It also probably won't have modding due to using frostbite 2. (though bf3's lack of mod tools might just have something to do with dice being a bunch of lazy assholes and not providing modding tools so they can better force feed you dlc, instead of their "its too complicated" excuse)

You mean they haven't been following that formula? Having faction campaigns was a core part of what made C&C what it was!

Dont forget the Live Action Cutscenes! Every C&C game should have what is essentially a B-Movie distributed throughout it.
