Command Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars - The Novel
EA and Del Rey have announced they are working on a novel for Command Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars. I find this exciting mainly because I haven't played the campaign due the FMVs lagging like crazy. Here is more information:br /br /pstrongEA AND DEL REY ANNOUNCE NOVEL BASED ON POPULAR COMMAND amp; CONQUER GAME SERIES/strongbr /emGaming Universe Expands to New Forms of Media/em/p pCHERTSEY, UK - April 26, 2007 - Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) and Del Rey, an imprint of Ballantine Books at the Random House Publishing Group, announced today that Del Rey will publish a novel based on the critically-acclaimed Command Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars? computer and videogame on 29th May 2007 in the US and Canada. The novel will release in the U.K. and Germany in the months following. The game is available now for the PC and will be in stores 11th May 2007 for the Xbox 360? videogame and entertainment system./p pIn COMMAND amp; CONQUER: TIBERIUM WARS?, the novel by Keith R. A. DeCandido, the year is 2047 and the stakes could not be higher. Tiberium--a self-replicating alien substance that has infected the Earth--is spreading like a radioactive ice age. The Global Defense Initiative, a high-tech alliance of the world's most advanced nations, is fighting to contain Tiberium, but Kane, the megalomaniacal leader of the Brotherhood of Nod has other plans for Earth. Kane's secret society turned superpower is bent on using Tiberium to take control and transform humanity into his twisted vision of the future. In the midst of battles throughout the world, a third alien race emerges, and all-out war rages over Tiberium. The fate of the planet rests in the balance./p p"We're excited to expand the Command Conquer franchise to a new form of media and offer a depth to the underlying fiction of the game series like never before," said Patrick O'Brien, VP of Business Affairs at EA. "Keith DeCandido wrote a great story, and we're pleased to have partnered with him and Del Rey."/p pDel Rey editor Keith Clayton said, "Command amp; Conquer remains one of the most popular and well-reviewed gaming franchises, and we're thrilled to have the opportunity to work on an original story set in EA's Tiberium Universe."/p pFor further information on the novel, COMMAND CONQUER: TIBERIUM WARS, visit www.delreybooks.com.br /For information on Command amp; Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars or the Command amp; Conquer series, visit www.CommandAndConquer.EA.com./pbr /br /a href="http://kotaku.com/gaming/command-%26-conquer/tiberium-wars-to-be-novelized-255557.php"Source/adiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30844897-1720403734008541419?l=commandconquer3tiberiumwars.blogspot.com' alt='' //div ...

CNC3 Release Review! - By Kanadwen
March 30th, 2007. - Review by Forum Member Kanadwenbr /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Download the latest patches at:/spanbr /a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.commandconquer3.com/command_conquer_3_patches.html"CNC3 Patches Here/abr /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Article:/spanbr /I round up some games to trade-in, Need for Speed: Carbon (Wii), Beatmania (PS2), and Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (Xbox) to be exact, and I went to my local Gamestop! It's amazing when you're handed a game that you've been waiting for since 1999! After opening it and reading the manual on the drive home to get psyched up, I installed it and go everything working.br /br /First thing I do when I get a game working is try it online. I selected Automatch and was waiting to get connected, a couple of moments later, I get an error saying that it cannot connect to another player and I should open some ports and disable my firewall blah blah blah, usual stuff. Well, I exited, and realized this computer has been on a DMZ and every single port was open, and no firewall even installed besides the Windows XP one, but that was disabled, always been disabled. I figured it was just my computer, and rebooted.a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/3188/cncproblemsak2.jpg"img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/3188/cncproblemsak2.jpg" alt="" border="0" //abr /br /I launch CC3, and sit there in darkness for about two minutes until it finally loads up, and I try online again. Still no luck. I figured it was me, so I just tried to play single player missions for now. I was praying that the out of sync problem wouldn't transfer over from the demo to retail. Boy was I disappointed. Super horrible out of sync, worse than the demo occurred. So I stopped playing Campaign. Yes, I could of skipped the videos, but I have to have my videos. It's a Camp;C tradition!br /br /I was fed up with it, and hit the EA Technical Forums. There was countless topics of ?HELP ME! PLZ! ZOMG!?, literally. So, I couldn't play two sections of the game, a little disappointed but still excited I try out the Scrin during a Skirmish. The Scrin is nothing what I thought they would be. I thought they were gonna be ?Money Makers?! The only Tiberium upgrade they have is the Growth Accelerator. Other than that, they're pretty cool, They feel like a very weak GLA from Generals, but hold the super power awards like China towards the end of a match. I'm still dieing to play the Campaign, but will have to wait. I've actually been able to sneak a couple of online matches here and there, won some, lost some. Overall, I give this game a 8.5 out of 10.div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30844897-6463142847118275298?l=commandconquer3tiberiumwars.blogspot.com' alt='' //div ...

Why CNC3 Kicks So Much A*S - New Details Videos
Four great new videos were released on Gamespot including a video from their developer talking about some kick a*s features of the game. The latest videos have a lot of sexy hot Alien penetration action. Seriously they are not holding back on anything so far; read below to learn about features that you will wish other mutli player games had.br /br /img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; width: 400px; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2007/010/reviews/932602_20060111_screen001.jpg" border="0" /br /div style="text-align: center;"strongspan style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"Cool Facts:/span/strongbr //divstrongStances:/strongbr /br /- Each unit has 4 different stances from aggressive to passive (hold fire)br /br /- You can set these stances not from only the units but from the buildings that create these units. So you can have your boys all amped up right out the door.br /br /strongDirectional Fire:/strongbr /Most units will have more armor up front and less armor to the sides and even less to the rear. This introduces the logic that you want your units to face incoming fire versus take it in the rear and get killed faster. The cool aspect to CNC3 is that you can order your units to face a direction and then backup while firing. More realistic and it should serve to look pretty slick in the game. The flip side is that you will position your units accordingly when taking up defensive postures against an attack.br /strongbr /Aliens:/strongbr /- They do not need silos. strongNO CAPS ON THEIR MONEY/strongbr /- They also get more money per Tiberium Charge than NOD and GDIbr /- They can reseed any Tiberium Field that they want so they will strongnever run out of Tiberium/strongbr /- They build units and vehicles at a much faster rate than GDI and NOD allowing them to overwhealm their enemy.br /br /strongWho will Play Alien:/strongbr /- The more "hardcore rusher aggressive player" will flock to Alienbr /strongbr /New Features:/strongbr /- EA is making some moves to open up RTS more as a sport.

Kane LIVES to lead NOD - New Trailer Released
span style="font-weight: bold;"****Breaking News - KANE is alive to lead NOD - New Trailer Released ****/spanbr /-- Video Communication Anonymous Source Via Brotherhood of NOD -- br /br /Just in Kane has surfaced alive and well, ready to lead NOD in fierce battle against the GDI in CNC3. In previous articles Mike Verdu focused on GDI but now finally we are getting to see the other side NOD! The new units for NOD look really nice and yes oh so EVIL. Mike Verdu described NOD as "Nod has the people, resources, organization, and raw military power necessary to stand against GDI and wage war on a global scale. Yet the Brotherhood of Nod isn't a country. It's a strange new hybrid organization that has the combined characteristics of a religious movement, a multinational corporation, and a nation-state." NOD is able to go against the worlds most powerful military and hold their own which is quite impressive. It really comes down to one major point on contension. br /br /Trailer and full article available at: a href="http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/commandconquer3/news.html?sid=6156230" target="_blank"Gamespot/abr /span style="font-size:130%;"span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"br /Stopping Tiberium span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"(GDI)br //spanvs.br /Allowing Tiberium to Consume the World span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"(NOD)/spanbr //span/spanbr /Neither side is willing to give ground and both sides believe their cause is the right cause to save the world and free the people of the other. A perfect setting for a very classic and nasty war. All that being said NOD just so happens to be run by the ever so charming psycho Kane who has resurfaced once again to take on GDI. He should be dead you say? Ahhhh well there may be some mystery behind how he came back. We really dont know but we are going to keep the door of possibilities open on that angle.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"The video transmission from NOD:/spanbr /p"Welcome to the Brotherhood of Nod. You have joined a global order with millions of members all working together in harmony to unite the world in the name of peace and realize the true potential of mankind. /ppOur relationship with Tiberium has always been greatly misunderstood. Most people do not realize that the roots of our faith extend back several millennia, long before the emergence of the green crystal on Earth in 1995...an event prophesized by our great leader, Kane. /ppWhile the fascist political consortium of wealthy nations known as the Global Defense Initiative attempted to control the sacred green crystal, the Brotherhood worked tirelessly to acquire samples of the precious crystal...to study it, to unlock its potential as a new energy source, to explore its possibilities. Through our research and our faith, we have affirmed that Tiberium is the ultimate gift to mankind. It is the key to the future. /pp Our movement grew rapidly throughout the first decades of the twenty-first century. The mainstream media branded us as 'terrorists,' but we exposed GDI forces as the real criminals. They unilaterally redrew international border lines, relegating Nod followers into inhospitable yellow zone while they claimed the pristine and exclusive blue zones all for themselves. /pp /p pMeanwhile, the Brotherhood champions the common people--the 80% of the world's population that struggles to get by in yellow zones torn by war, wracked by poverty, and abandoned by GDI. Using Tiberium to fuel and fund our efforts, Nod works tirelessly to bring order from the chaos. We make the streets safe, distribute food to the hungry, provide emergency medical care, minister to those who feel a spiritual vacuum, and inspire hope in people who would otherwise have none. /ppGDI casts itself as the world's guardian and savior, but it is neither. GDI is corrupt and unjust: 20% of the world's population--the most wealthy people on the planet--live in the blue zones, consuming the majority of the world's natural resources, wielding its vast military power to maintain the status quo by depriving the downtrodden of their god-given right to mine and exploit Tiberium. /pp The powerful oppress the weak in the hollow name of freedom and the only counter to GDI's power is the Brotherhood. Nod meets strength with strength in the name of peace and progress. Nod is the only hope against GDI tyranny. Brotherhood...Unity...Peace."br //ppspan style="font-weight: bold;"End Transmission/spanbr //ppNOD blames GDI and GDI blames NOD but the reality is that Tiberium is slowly causing an ecological and worldwide disaster. NOD collects its memebers from the poor and desperate peoples of the world living in the difficult yellow zones.br //ppbr /span style="font-weight: bold;"Is NOD Capable?/spanbr /Although it would appear that NOD's military is unorganized and weak it is actually quite the opposite. NOD is able to operate through a decentralized system in the decaying and crumbling cities found in yellow zones. It is able to move large armies or large distances un-detected by the best sensor equipment available.br //ppspan style="font-weight: bold;"NOD Army:br //span Fast, stealth, and a mix of highly trained and hastily put together infantry. NOD's army really represents its makeup of both sophisticated elite forces combined with guerilla poorly trained forces. NOD is not afraid to put it's soldiers at risk in order to gain added speed and power with it's weapons. The downside to this added ability is unstable and dangerous weapons. NOD also has new Tiberium based weapons that deal a lethal blow to anything that gets in their way./pNOD units include attack bikes, raider buggies, Scorpion tanks, latest-generation stealth tank, Vertigo batwig bombers, and VTOL Venom scout aircraft and the high end deadly avatar warmechs among other units. The avatar warmechs can actually use weapons systems from other units and incorporate into their own arsenal. In regards to infantry NOD has a grunt poorly trained militant force as well as highly trained elite forces such as black hand shock troops, and a hang-glider equipped shadow.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Coming Soon:/spanbr /span style="font-style: italic;""And in the coming months, we will take the wraps off of our mysterious third faction." /spanbr /- Mike Verdubr /span class="down" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_CreateLink" title="Link" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 8);ButtonMouseDown(this);"/spanbr /ulliJoin other dedicated CNC3 soldiers and a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.commandconquer3.com/forums/"discuss this topic on our forums./a/liliView our a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.commandconquer3.com"Command Conquer 3/a website./liliView new a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.commandconquer3.com/gallery/"Command Conquer 3 screen shots/a./li/ulbr /The message ended with:br /span style="font-family:times,serif;"span style="color: rgb(211, 17, 17);"ib"You cannot kill the Messiah..."/b/ibbr /Our message to Kane - Welcome back!!!/bibbr //b/i/span/spandiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30844897-115635260693669460?l=commandconquer3tiberiumwars.blogspot.com' alt='' //div ...

Looking at this screenshot makes me wish I had the game already. There is quite a bit going on in this screenshot, I will go over what saw as noteworthy.br /ulliYour eyes go right to the Tiberium. From this shot you see the harvester hard at work and what I found intersting is that there is no problem with the builings being so close to the Tiberium. Looks like you can practically build your base around it.br /br //lilispan style="font-weight: bold;"Name that building - /spanActually we are not exactly sure what everything is but our guesses are: Tiberium Refinery, Missle Uplink, Base Defense Turrets, Power Plants, Barracks, Radar Tower, War Factory, Orca Pad, Construction Yard, and more...br /br //liliMilitary Units - You can see a Predator Tank and a Mammoth tank rolling out of the War Factory, as well as some infantry units standing in formation. In the air you can see some Orca's flying around like hornets circling their nest. Out in the ocean you have a GDI transport vessle that appears to have two landing pads as well as capacity to store ground units. We are assuming the ship can get close to shore for loading.br /br //lilispan style="font-weight: bold;"Defense/span - The turrets are strategically placed, we count 7 in all.

You know GDI, 2047, Tiberium infestation, etc etc. The good part begins when he starts to talk a little more about GDI actually does outside the blue zones. Apparently GDI actually goes into the yellow zones and works to contain Tiberium. This helps to improve the quality of life for the residents there but you have to remember that NOD has the upper hand in terms of gaining the peoples trust in this regard.br /br /Mike goes on to talk about the speed and strength behind GDI.

These forces are able to operate in all types of terrain. The really interesting part comes when he mentions that GDI utilize their "all-weather weapon systems..." This could simply mean weapons that can operate in all environments or it could mean much more.

Secrets of Command and Conquer 3 Revealed in 2nd Podcast
span style="font-weight: bold;"Status Update on the Game:/spanbr /fontThis is a detailed review of the latest Podcast filled with information you will not want to miss. You can also discuss the on our forums in more detail. (a href="http://www.commandconquer3.com/forums/"CNC3 Forums Link/a) Tiberium was the main focus of the conversation. Also in August, they are "cooking up some cool stuff to show at the convention," the Leipzig Games Convention in Germany. In their words it will be the "Next time we are going to show actual gameplay for Command and Conquer 3."br /br /This was clear when the lead designer mentioned is that they are already playing full on multiplayer games which is a great sign the game is progressing well. He also mentioned they are starting to play with the Nod Units describing them as "pretty sweet."br /span style="font-weight: bold;"br /What is Tiberium? /spanbr /Catalist for global war that has gone on for years, global distaster, possibly a teraforming agent from "aliens..." There is a lot of speculation of where Tiberium came from. Technically it is a self replicating substance. By the time the game starts there are many parts of the earth that have been rendered large parts of the planets surface into toxic wastelands.br /a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.npr.org/movies/2005/images/shotgun200.jpg"img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px;" src="http://www.npr.org/movies/2005/images/shotgun200.jpg" alt="" border="0" //abr /Our money is that Tiberium is from an alien substance teraforming the earth. This will lead to clues on the third race. Ever see War of the Worlds with sexy Tom Cruise? Kinda green back there? Hmmmmbr /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Strategic Hint:/spanbr /Water tends to accelerate the rate at which tiberium spreads.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"What will Tiberium do for the Player?/spanbr /"Tiberium is the basis of your economy..." Crucial to get your army and base up and running. Certain units react with tiberium in different ways and it affects the way different zones (red, blue and yellow) will play out.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Has the original resource system evolved from the original CNC3?/spanbr /The resource management system will be similar to what it has been. There will be harvesters, refineries, and silos, giving the player assets he or she will need to protect. They were described as "juicy targets." You can attack players economies and steal their money using certain special units.br /br /Infantry have always been vulnerable to Tiberium. Zone troopers are immune to Tiberium but other less armored infantry are vulnerable.br /br /Blue Yellow and Red Zones, how are the different zones playing a role in CNC3?br /The GDI (one of the three factions) has classified the world into three zones.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Red Zones/spanbr /Toxic, does not support life. (alien substance - gives off radiation)br /Ion storms that come into play with lightning blasts that discharge into the ground with strong winds.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Yellow Zones/spanbr /Tiberium is growing in many different areas creating wastelands and unpleasant places to live.br /80% of worlds population.span style="font-weight: bold;"br /br /Blue Zones/spanbr /Pristine areas not really affected by Tiberium but reaping all the benefits of Tiberium. Tiberium in this area is very dense and organized.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Relationship between Ion Storms and Tiberium? /spanbr /Yes but to early to reveal.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"How will zones play out in gameplay?/spanbr /They have a big focus on balance but at the same time expect different gameplay in eachzone.br /They are making sure players will not have "runaway economies" by getting tons of Tiberium.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Can you run out of Tiberium on the battlefield?/spanbr /Tiberium regrows so the short answer is no. However it grows back slow so dont count on a fast supply there will need to be strategy involved in how you use it.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"What is about NOD and GDI and their relationships with Tiberium?/spanbr /GDI wants to contain it but they are still addicted to it. NOD wants to spread Tiberium everywhere, it's the basis of their faith/economy/technology and transformation to the next plain of evolution. For this reason NOD likes to roll in yellow zones and are welcome by the people.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Speed of the gameplay; How is that going to be affect the speed of the game?/spanbr /"Fast Fluid and Fun is their motto..." There will be a variety of maps that dictate the speed of the game.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Can you have more than one harvestor?/spanbr /Yes, and its crucial to the game. You can have more than one refinery as well.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Tiberium and its evolution:/spanbr /It has been evolving even as CNC3 is created. They tried to update the look in a way faithful to the other games but adding new stuff at the same time.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Hint/span - Tiberium is at the center of this game. Everything flows with Tiberium as a centrol element and tied very much to the gameplay.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Upcoming Event:/spanbr /People will be able to see the first multiplayer match between GDI and NOD at the Leipzig Games Convention in Germany. There will be a big announcement also.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"Hint/span - One of the factions will have a very tactical use of Tiberium and be able to do "some crazy stuff with tiberium"br /br /span style="font-weight: bold;"br /Special Guests:/spanbr /Executive Director, Lead Designer, were present.br /br /br //spandiv class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30844897-115440833792015745?l=commandconquer3tiberiumwars.blogspot.com' alt='' //div ...
