Also, it occurred to me that nobody in their right mind would make an automatically transforming gun, because that’s power that could be used for something else, and energy is at a premium. Plus, just think how much it would suck if you couldn’t arm your weapon because the battery was running low. So yeah, it looks cool, but maybe all weapon designers suddenly contract the stupid-disease in the future.

Well from what I know Tiberium is set a few years after Kane’s Wrath (again something that might have changed) what could have happened is that the Tiberium Titan is sort of a new generation of Titan which is why it has the same name.

The C&C website released some renders of the Titans and Wolverines from Kanes wrath a month or so back. They were just graphical updates of their Tiberian Sun versions, much like the juggernaut was.

I really hope the Ed’s aren’t meant to be titans, honest to god.
How often are these journo types wrong? lads?

WCAYPAHWAT the ED209 look alikes were called Titan’s in the GameInformer preview but maybe that has changed since then because…

I swore I saw a screenshot of those Titan units in C&C Kane’s Wrath but now I cannot find it. However there are Titan units in the game from looking at the latest media but they are different like miniature Battlemechs, they could have changed the design and naming for units.

Doom wasn’t faceless in the way Halo is faceless.

Wasn’t the first game with “supersoldier in a visor” DOOM? In fact, master chief looks pretty based on Doomguy.

Also, if they can do squad combat as well as Freedom Fighters (which the city bits of half-life 2 reminded me of), then it might actually be decent.

Nice trailer, but I hope we can move beyond this sort of thing with future FPS’s

Are they ever?

There’s a Nod campaign in all of the C&C games in the Tiberian universe, yeah. There’s never been a game where you exclusively play as them, certainly never at ground level. And I think you underestimate just how knee-jerk the “terrorism” card is. People would kick a fuss. Not sensible, intelligent people, but then these things aren’t about that.

They should have called it Command & Conquer: Renegade 2k9. Then they could release annual roster updates and completely milk the franchise.
