Firestorm was great. And I want to remember you, that we haven't seen Kane in Firestorm, but it still was great and epic campaign and VERY tiberium'ish background: flora, infested ground and water by tiberium, mutants in the story with Tratos, etc. Very cool missions, like stop all harvesters or coop-missions with GDI and Nod. And very atmospheric weather - ion storms as example.

Zero Hour are boring for me. yes, they fit to real picture with war and no super-story, but Generals must have something closer to C&C, like different build styles, and one of fraction will have MCV-system. And I dont like GLA in this game. I understand, that americans like to put arabic countries as main enemy, like Ben Laden etc, but now we have a lot more candidates to be an another fraction: Europe Union, Korea, something from moon, Nazi (for Red Alert ofc)

I'll have to say I found the classic Tiberian Sun more fun than Firestorm. Zero Hour and the whole idea of each faction having subfactions that are impressive in a certain area is great (Tank general, Infantry general, Airforce general ect.). Kane's Wrath kind of adopted on this ides with armies like ZOCOM and Black Hand, but their armies could have been much more unique.

That being said, I can't play Zero Hour without the Shockwave mod. :)

Zero Hour because it had a way more interesting gameplay than Firestorm.

Firestorm!

Because the World Domination Mode was AWESOME!

Why are the Oldschool Boys from Westwood creating the Game "End of Nations"????
Cause a part of this Gameplay was already in Firestorm...

When I played the GENERALS: Zero hour, I felt deja vu-- the game look like the starcraft series, but have more strategy and tactics can use-- even you controled a GLA dynamite general, your vehicles and infantries are weaker then USA or China, but I can use a number of terrorist ride the battle bike, or use the general skill--rebel infiltrate molest your base; and remember, GLA all of the units and structures are cheaper than USA and China, combine tunnel system, and fast break, it still have opportunity to defeat the enemy, like starcraft use the Zerg defeat the Terran or Protoss.
USA like protoss, China like Terran, GLA like zerg--Althrough GLA not have flight.XD

Firestorm, because it has an epic campaign and Zero Hour are not bad, I like this very much, like Firestorm, but I like the Tiberium Universe more, than the Generals Universe. This should not say, Zero Hour is bad, but it has his own Style, without cutscences for example. This is great for his own.

I was always fascinated of the History of Tiberium! And it has a very great deep history. The game mechanic is great for the two games for his own. I canīt decide me for a while, should I vote Zero Hour or Firestorm. But I decided for Firestorm, because more History.

Firestorm because of epic Tiberium Life, and Cabal running amock!

I reckon Tiberian Sun\Firestorm was the height of the Tiberian Saga in terms of Story and atmosphere.

Generals and Zero Hour were cool and all, but they failed to capture me like Tiberian Sun\Firestorm.

Firestorm, never had the time to actually like Generals or Zero Hour. I just love the Firestorm mutant forgotten campaigns and CABAL. My vote goes for Firestorm.

MarkedofDave
06-25-2011, 07:36 AM
Voted Firestorm.

wish i could chose both cause both are awesome.

Firestorm had epic story, making the tiberium universe be more serious guring the campaign by encounting mutants, lots of dangerous tiberium life forms and fight against new army as CABAL that betrayed Nod.
what i also liked was that the superweapons were like support power kind that were least less scary than C&C3's superweapons that using that to blow about 60% of the whole base in 1 blow would most likely then make players quit.

I wasnt into generals first until when i played some of it i then started to like it cause of the whole entire gameplay besides the campaign story i didnt like cause of it being really short and not many.

Tough call, I really liked ZH but while it was a step up in fun I felt it was a step down in story, gameplay and feel. FS on the other hand improved TS in almost every way, though it didn't get rid of some of TS' flaws.

My vote is on FS, because I prefer SP over MP. Both were great games though.

both are great. fire storm had very good story and atmospher.but i vote zero hour because of its gameplay.its wonderfull and deep and i also love sub faction(balance of it) for deeper gameplay and tactics and zero hour has a great gameplay and multiplayer and maps and its fast ! and factions are so different.

Honestly I think Firestorm should get the vote. Not just because I play it more than the newer games, but because of the gameplay environment. Firestorm in my opinion has the best in depth battle field environment out of the other tiberium game series. You have ion storms, tiberian creatures, the tiberium mutated trees and the mutated lanscapes. The technology was original and definetly a tech jump from the first cnc which impresses me.

Basically: us laser weapons. (http://www.google.com/search?q=us+laser+weapons&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a) I can't find the article anymore about the Avenger-like vehicle.

Then theres the Active Denial System (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Denial_System) a.k.a. the Microwave Tank
http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/0gUM0Czbv7dJ7/610x.jpg

Tomahawk missile (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomahawk_%28missile%29)
Raptor (http://www.f22-raptor.com/)


I also remember from the old cnc generals website on how they explained that most of the technology in the US faction are real. What wowed me the most is the Particle Cannon. There was a link leading to a website talking about a laser weapon in the moon called Shiva.

I searched it today and here are my finds:
http://www.thelivingmoon.com/45jack_files/03files/Lasers_Shiva_Nova.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva_laser

Looks more like an experimental equipment rather than a weapon. The idea is still related I guess.

I don't know much about TD, I just posted some rl examples from zh. Weird, I thought most cnc players are already aware of most of the real life tech in zh.

Wow, the vote is deadlock after I posted this, 83:83 lol.

No, there's no particle cannon, aurora bombers, or laser tanks.

F-22A Raptors exist, Tomahawks are completely different from the ingame versions, and the microwave weapons in testing have no tank version, nor do they burn people alive in a big field around the vehicle. XD .

What's really funny is the one thing you say you're waiting for them to invent, the combat robots, are what's actually already in service, in the form of the Talon drones (Which are likely the inspiration for the sentry drones.) , and a plethora of UAVs, the most famous of which is the Predator.

I think I ran across on that "Talon drone" when google suggested it while I'm searching around.

Nowhere in either of your links is even the word "Moon" mentioned. What you've linked to a project for one approach scientists used to try and harness Fusion. It wasn't a laser weapon on the moon, lol.

Anyways, yes, I remember the old Generals site. I don't recall anything there that contradicts what I'm saying now though. The only real things the USA in Generals had was the A-10, F-117, Rangers, Humvees, the F-22A, the Commanche, flashbangs, TOW missiles, Predator drones, rocket pods, snipers, the B-52, and C-130, and bull dozers.

Everything else either simply wasn't real, or merely had a real world analogue, for example, Crusader tank -> Abrams tank. The Tomahawk is a sketchy one, with Tomahawk cruise missiles being real, but never being carried on a land based chassis for use as artillery. Same with Flashbangs. Less-Lethal stun grenades were now lumped together as regular frags.

Haven't even gotten to Zero Hour, and things like the Point Defense Lasers, or the "B3" bomber (Lol.) either.

Methinks we're on the same boat, I just posted those to show that they do exist. Well, most of em XD

Their functionality otoh are a different story imo. The devs of course made some appropriate tweaks and changes based on their real life counterpart to suit the game. I mean just look at how the Scud Launcher can get inside the Tunnel while the Angry Mobs cannot.

@stormgear
maybe you should read some articles about nature of visible light and electromagnetic waves. Or to put simple, you said that microwave oven is the same as some fictional laser oven (which doesn't exist). And where I said that all units and weapons in zero hour are fictional? Or you think that all units and weapons in TD are fictional? I clearly said that some of those weapons doesn't exist in "that" (as they are were pictured in zero hour) form. Yeah, tomahawk missiles exist, everybody knows that, but do you know what is their launch platform? Navy ships (destroyers, etc.) only. I already know for all those projects that you listed in your post, but many of them never passed theoretical, lab or prototype phase, let alone some practical use or mass production.

I remember at least 1 thread a month popping up, where someone would ask, "What Generals weapons are real?" I lead the charge on at least one of those threads, because I was big into observing Chinese military advancements, compared to the US military. Annoyed me to no end to see the PLA portrayed like this:

When they're really like this:

Or having vehicles like this:

What I tried to attempt to reply to your post/question is to show the "real life" basis of US factions units.

I'm not really familiar with all those microwave tech stuff, so I have to say I apologize for any misunderstandings on that part.


Now, if we're going here:


Show me: links, articles, pics, when they used them, where they used them, any "solid" data which would confirm their existence in "that" form. Please, no stories and tales about top secret and black projects.

I clearly said that some of those weapons doesn't exist in "that" (as they are were pictured in zero hour) form.
You won't find any because:

I should've seen this earlier, I didn't realize what you were "specifically" asking there until now. So I believe that should be the more appropriate reply + Kyangs in your question rather than the links and pictures I posted on the previous page. So I guess it's best that we'd take the route from there.


or the "B3" bomber (Lol.) either.
They do have that B2 Bomber right? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_Grumman_B-2_Spirit)

That's why I laughed. I thought it was funny they decided to bump up the number, without changing anything about it, while leaving things like the A-10 alone. Why not "A-11" strike? Lol.

Zero Hour because it added so much diversity to the core game and the Generals were fantastic and varied.

I know about that stuff already. I follow these things closely enough.

And once again, that doesn't contradict anything I've said. There's some kind of a real world analogue, but nothing like the stuff in Zero Hour. For instance, the ship mounted example requires a few minutes to burn a tiny hole into the a thin skinned target, and that's with a ship mounted power system... And ironically, it's the Chinese that mounted a laser defense system on their Type-99 tanks, but even that's just a simple dazzler system, and not a full fledged weapon.

I would leave it at what you said earlier, which is the conclusion I arrived at long ago, it's just a game. :) .

This one's pretty difficult for me - with me generally favouring my nostalgic single player escpades of earlier C&Cs, you think I'd choose Firestorm, but actually Firestorm was probably my least favourite C&C expansion pack. However, this is probably due to my lack of play at this time of my life. You can see that Firestorm was actually pretty innovative for its time as an expansion pack;

The previous expansions for the older games simply added new, unconnected and simple missions with no story other than a text briefing at the start, some new music, and new maps (and in case of RA: Aftermath some new units, which did make it that much better). I remember these very fondly simply because I was young and this was my Golden Era of playing C&C, but rationally Firestorm was leaps and bounds better in terms of content. It was the first C&C expansion to add a proper new campaign rather than aforementioned single missions, crucially complete with new FMVs. New units were also added, which were carefully considered to fill roles that were lacking in the vanilla game, rather than just adding units as an extra formality as it seemed in Aftermath. As other people have mentioned there was also the World Domination Mode, which I never played due to not having Internet Access at this point, but I understood it, and with the territory map and continual competitive matches against real people it seemed totally awe inspiring to my 12 year old self. So, even though at the time it never captured me, it was the first ambitious, innovative C&C expansion pack, whose ideals would really come to fruition with RA2: Yuri's Revenge (which was awesome!)

That being said, Generals Zero Hour was the first C&C game of a new era for me, where multiplayer became just as important as the single player. Generals vanilla was a nice, brave new concept that established a new universe and crucially a new engine, which despite the outcry of the game at the time, SAGE really laid the foundation for a great, adaptive RTS environment. At this time I'd finally gotten my first own personal PC, and in my first LAN parties with my friends we discovered Zero Hour multiplayer and the vast, vast opportunities with the combination of units and generals. Needless to say it was incredibly fun, and if I could get everyone together again it still would be. It was similar for the whole community as well; this is where Gamereplays.org started off and competitive RTS multiplayer was really starting to take off. Zero Hour gave this new community a grand, diverse playground, which admittedly lacked balance, and (which I've failed to mention in my fond multiplayer ramblings) a decent single player experience (much like Generals vanilla really), but the multiplayer was that unadulteratedly fun to forgive it of this.

Firestorm had a fairly good stab at both single and multiplayer, but really wasn't Westwood at their best in either. A commendable addition that has now somewhat become a cult game due to its campaign really adding some interesting depth and cliffhangers to the Tiberian universe, but overall lacked the memorable moments that nearly all other C&C games have had for me. Zero Hour however, single player extremely average, (but who played it for that?) had the killer, crazy, explosive, and impossible multiplayer that has provided so much joy, and gets my vote.

Zero Hour MUST NOT WIN THIS. I mean, lol Rockvee spam FTW!!! And yes, Firestorm was lol Titan spam. But as long as the multiplayer is imba in both games, we go for the better singleplayer, right? And which is better in that regard should be obvious...

Voted Firestorm IN THE NAME OF KANE

I choose Firestorm, reasons being the story was dark and had atmosphere. Zero hour lacked a good story.

My vote goes to Firestorm. I love ZeroHour, but it wasn't a C&C game for me. Firestorm really captured me, especially the storyline, something I miss in Zh.

Thought the same...
So this means we wont get a new CNC with a great Tiberian Sun like atmosphere

Renegade and RA1 are both great , but i like RA1 more

That's too presumptuous. No one even knows what they're using these polls for. They could just as easily be comparing which game's mechanics the fan base prefers, rather than their respective campaigns.

They're comparing the total packages with eachother. Not just specific aspects.

What I mean is, regardless of the ultimate victor, it's unlikely they're going to trash all progress achieved in the losers.

These polls aren't relevant to this day and age, they just aren't. Did big online communities exist when the best games came out? Pitting online into this is unfair to the max. SP alone Firestorm wins hands down. ZH is a better multiplayer but that's because it was intended to be a multiplayer.

Not for me even if you take out the amount of time I spent playing ZH online or the amount time I spent playing the game modded it's still my most played C&C by far. Now if you mean SP as in story then sure I gotta give it to Firestorm. But there is more to single player then a storyline you know.

Even if there is more than a storyline, Firestorm still wins.

Well, I DID ENJOY playing Firestorm but I voted for Zero Hour.

And, having those people never played firestorm voting for this match is actually a good thing...b/c that means the fan base of C&C has grown that much.



Ah, and about multiplayer balance, that of ZH is much better compared to that of firestorm.
Unless you prefer infantry-stalemate situation over quick defeat/victory.

Too late for the poll, would've voted for Firestorm. I am a single player gamer, hence why it has my vote. Plus, I'm not a Generals enthusiast -- even though I did enjoy it.

definitely zero hour.like ubercheese256 said i also like how each faction has it's own sub-faction.it makes the game more expansive and gives more depth.
