They should have a mode that makes the year 1992... that way you guys can enjoy all the gaming goodness that those years had to offer.

Quite frankly I'm done with the movie mode babies crying about this game.

Single player RTS is dead - it's an afterthought - you're not as big a group as you think and EA recognized that you'll...

If there are only generals and no vanilla factions - that's good - should take care of much of the balence concerns. Should be pretty easy to monetize this. You can put in a ton of hours and unlock...

I stopped reading right here, simply because paying for matchmaking or a monthly subscription for added benefits like a ladder or matchmaking is in no way close to any pay2win model. I can't take...

That's another good idea - if you subscribe, you get access to all factions and generals for as long as subscribed.

The statistics I'm talking about would be very in-depth, not just wins/losses. ...

Well look - the vanilla factions can be free with upgrades coming to the generals.

The problem there is that the generals are perceived as "better" because of special powers, therefore you've...

According to the Eurogamer article, it seems EA hasnt really thought out the monitization aspect.

Here are some suggestions - certainly things that don't need to be ready by day 1, but some ideas...

Having a guy who doesn't like RTS games talk about an RTS game and his trepidation about it is not an article I want to read. Should have just let the other guy in the interview do all the talking.

That is good news, hard to imagine not including that. Hopefully as this thing grows, you start to see things like stopping a replay and jumping in to play the rest (even if it is vs AI).

The...

The thought that selecting or "purchasing" a certain general and his abilities of a faction is "pay to win" is laughable. The Pay to Win detractors will grab on to anything. I mean if you played...

A limit to 4 players is just awful. It's 2013. EA is consistently going backwards in this department. Generals had 4v4 and those games were a blast. It wasn't "hectic" just as 4v4 COH was not...

Here is what I would sell with regards to multiplayer

Monthly online account - $9 a month
Ranked Games
Matchmaker
Ability to play in 3v3 to 4v4 games
Receive all new maps

If you want you...

I don't blame the SP community for EA's shortcomings... but I will call them out on their selfish and pathetic whine fest of a movement they have created since EA announced an improved game design...

It's a cute attempt, but it literally makes no sense. Sure EA could make a campaign game that you and I could play, but in a months time you'll have moved on, and I'll realize just how rushed the...

What nobody here wants to address - is that the model used previously by EA has resulted in a utter failure. Those days are thankfully passed, and EA has embraced the future. SP is and should be an...

Disagree 100%.

The difference in what EA is going will work. Focusing on MP is fairly straightforward. They don't have to worry about anything other than game mechanics. Releasing the game...

Yes, the EA that acknowledged doing things a certain way doesn't work... and your still complaining. EA spent way to much time on campaign mode - and their games suffered. I'm glad they've realized...

CNC Gold literally exploded onto the scene when people found ways to connect through dial up modems. Trying to say "Hey that late 90's game wasnt a good MP game is like saying a movie made in 1950's...

This is a sad attempt to take an argument to the extreme, and is often the sign that someone is struggling with finding any remaining logic in their position.

Once EA has solidified the base of...

Come back about 6 months after the game goes live and read the list of topics - you'll certainly come to the same conclusion we and EA have.

I can answer that for you - the crying is because EA is not spending millions on hiring actors and creating a fictitious storyline about the chemical makeup of tiberium. It's a badly mangled...

Certainly - in fact I believe that's what they are planning. Certainly works for games like WOW. If you provide a stable working product that is polished, people will pay for it. Basic economics. ...

I was thinking - the SP guys would probably be best served if EA just released staged gameplay with cut scenes of your favorite characters. Would be much cheaper than actually developing a game, and...

Disagree 100% - Sure you might mod, play thousands of mp games, but you are in a huge huge minority of those players who play MP and don't visit forums. I'm not sure what kind of multiplayer...

I'm really having trouble finding any thought process in this other than "Waaaa I'm not getting my way".
Your way has failed... miserably - it's time for a new direction, embrace it. If the SP...
