    It makes me wonder about Red Alert and Generals, as they are included in the new domain names. I take it that this it is the game that you played, GDI looks awesome, please do tell us just a bit more but just as a Teaser.

    Meh, GDI looks OK. It has the level of graphics you'd expect from a browser game, but hardly a "cartoony" look.

    How ironic is it that the GDI art style in this game is better than C&C 4 and C&C 3?

Only GDI is playable so far. Mutants are neutral camps. Player-owned bases cannot be entirely destroyed, only "raided" and you destroy all their troops, defenses and take all their money.

    There are mostly C&C3 units (no KW ones), with some C&C4 air units.
    Many thanks for that Alex.

    The artwork was probably done in Shanghai China, as mentioned several times before in my previous posts where Victory Games, or now BioWare Victory, has "offices" in Shanghai China which appear to be shared by other games studios.

    Back in 2010 I noted, not only Nick Earl at Visceral, but then also EA CEO Riccitiello, mention in the media this and Victory Games also has "offices" there.
    "the efficiencies associated with outsourcing things like artistic work to other countries has been incredible."
    "It takes a while to get a team used to not sitting next to the team that’s putting the art together," he said. "But now they’re pretty happy. They put out two key frames before they go home... they come back in the morning and they’ve got sometimes a man-month of work done overnight as 30, 40 people worked on the art in China."

    It's the same buildings or almost the same as in both games. Some of them are sort of frankensprites (mix of different parts of different stuff).

    http://www.ea.com/tiberium-alliances is it's own site, but http://www.ea.com/redalert-alliances leads to http://www.commandandconquer.com/redalert/ which is the same as http://www.commandandconquer.com

    I think that they might NOT be working for many people and I wonder why. Maybe our Community Manager EA_CIRE might like to let us know what is happening as others may like to play it. Do others need a Facebbook account or what, please do folks let us know.

    It's subjective of course, but it looks more TS than C&C 3 or TT.
