What is this Redux and why did we make it?
First off, I'd like to thank Plokite_Wolf and Cypher for helping us revise and rectify some of the errors and expanding on the information of our first script. After having published our first 'version' of the video, it was brought to our attention that some of the information provided was either incorrect or needed to be elaborated on. I regret the fact that this has happened, as fans of the series we wanted to make a franchise analysis that takes the viewer through the highs and lows of the series as well as tell the stories of the developers at EALA and Westwood in detail. Making a documentary-style video about Command & Conquer has, personally, been one of my long-time goals but I didn't feel that it was fully achieved in our first video. The story of Command & Conquer is very nuanced and the Redux, or Revision or V2 (whatever you like to call it) seeks to tell this more accurately, with 10+ minutes of additional information I feel like this is a much more interesting video for fans of the series.
Sorry to those of you who were waiting on a new video, our regular content schedule will resume now and I hope to have a new (exciting) video online next week! :)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Among games that have defined the Real-Time Strategy genre, Command & Conquer is seen as one of the most influential titles. The C&C franchise, along with Warcraft and Starcraft, shaped the identity of RTS games during the '90s and would influence the designs of countless similar strategy titles in later years. Even though the franchise ended with a whimper instead of a bang, it managed to create an indelible impact on the history of videogames. Join us as we take a look at the rise and fall of Command & Conquer.

Here's the short version. Rise = Westwood Studios Fall = EA

@asmongoldsmouth9839 6 лет назад

I enjoyed titles under Westwood such as Red Alert, Nox, C&C etc. However, C&C: Generals was probably my favorite updated RTS game. I still play Tiberian Sun, RA, Nox and other Westwood games but EA only fucked up (imho) in the later 2000's. Their NHL for PC series was great, NFS series up until Undercover, RTS games entirely were good. Tiberium Wars was the last RTS series from EA. So I think they ended on a good note. Just my 2 cents. We can't expect zero evolution in the gaming industry. Popular or not, changes help revolutionize future games.

@v11cu96 6 лет назад

As much as I detest EA now, you have to give them Props for Generals, C&C3, and RA3, those were all solid games ,(better than their predecessors in some respects). They blew it with C&C4, Generals 2, Rivals etc. Basically - since Red alert 3 they have just gone from one disaster to the next. The difference is in their objectives, from 2000-2008 they were trying hard to make C&C something to beat Blizzard over the head with. but from 2008-present they have just tried to make C&C into micro transaction software.

@Mantis_Toboggan_TrashMan 6 лет назад

It's sad because EA wasn't always as bad as they are today. You can tell when EA went full well EA that's what we call command and conquer 4. What the fuck were they thinking? Maybe since Microsoft is coming back with Halo wars and Age of empires it will encourage them to bring command and conquer back. The real command and conquer but the team is gone so.

BrewersPackers It always falls with EA

@s.m.2523 6 лет назад

Nevermind the fact that C&C Tiberian dawn and Red Alert 2, those game oh so often tauted as the height of the series, while develloped by Westwood when they already were under EA and the additional reason is certainely the reason why they were as big as they were (and for the time they were).Or that plenty of people think C&C3 was plenty good (RA 3, that one is way more divided and for godo reason) Honnestly, I understand the feeling, and certainely the way Westwood like many good studios under Ea was disolved and saw the frnachise they popularized bastardized annoys me, but in truth the rise of fall more has to do with EA and let's be honnest the entire video game industry itself changing into what is well.. a huge mass industriy and the whole AAA.

Leave it to EA to kill off the studio that would have brought us many more great strategy games. GG

@Kevooi 6 лет назад

Leave it to a relatively freshly corporate-oriented gaming industry to focus on monetizing and mass appeal over focus, attention to detail, quality and healthy growth of a franchise. That's literally the issue with gaming in general right now, not just EA. As studios are bought up in droves by publishers who at their core are publicly traded companies on the stock exchange, the stakeholders are going to be demanding positive performance and growth. At the very highest rungs of leadership, it's all fully corporate. They've never tried games and never will. They just don't care. They are plain businessmen who latched onto another business that makes money. Gaming used to be small, nerdy and weird. Now it's a massive industry. It's just the way things work as they get truly big. And for this reason we will not be seeing games "as they used to be" from any of the massive publishers like EA, because the focus now is on lootboxes, social integration and quick fun + annual releases to keep people playing and paying again and again. The gaming bubble will implode in the next decade and indies will have to restart the whole thing if gaming isn't brought back down to reasonable levels. But you've got games like FIFA and NFL bringing in unheard of amounts of money with their star cards and such. There's just no competing with the effectiveness of lootboxes and ingame stores.

I always think to myself, where would C&C be had Virgin not had to sell them off? On one hand we might not have gotten Generals, RA3, or Tiberian Wars, but on the other hand we would've for sure avoided the giant slap in the face of Tiberium Twilight. I remember being so excited to trying Tiberium Twilight, and I found myself getting immediately bored after two or three story missions by the retarded crawler system. All the other ones I played had me hooked immediately, and I was bored of Twilight within an hour.

In my opinion Generals 2 didn't managed well to bring on the old Generals feeling, plus the very very bad decision by EA to just offer a hand full of commanders as a start and letting you pay for more generals as a micro transaction plague, even in the close Alpha. That was a ridiculous by EA. I would also love to welcome a new Generals 2, but in the style and quality of Generals.

@dsandoval9396 7 лет назад

The mod community is really something. It's because of the mod community that games are alive and well YEARS after there release. I mean, who else (corporate entity) can say that they can take or have taken a game that's years or even decades old and have a player that played and beat a game when it originally came out and have them TODAY pick it up and have just as much fun with it or even more with new content that they produced for that/those game(s)? Granted there are textures that Dev's can give a game that can age fairly well but for the most part every game start to show their age sooner or later and usually not in a good way. Mods allow for an innumerable amount of changes that can be made to an old game with a dated engine so it can hold its own against today's modern titles. I myself am playing Doom with about 8-10 mods (recently added "bullet time" mod to it) and I choose to play it over 12 other modern games installed ready to play on My Precious, and at least half of those games are damn good games anyone would spend HOURS playing.

@cah11111 7 лет назад

That's not entirely true, selling a nuanced, niche market gaming series to EA is a sure fire way to kill it. The Call of Duty series is ridiculously successful (despite being published by EA) because it attracts a broad audience and caters to the lowest common denominators in gaming: The casual online gaming crowd. C&C though was always more about the story and the single player then the multi-player, and unfortunately that's less attractive to the overall market, because as a real time strategy game, they have to actually think and strategize to win, the game won't do it for you. That's why the later games (post C&C3) were, in my opinion, worse than the previous games. They took a winning formula with a small, but dedicated fanbase, and tried to expand it to concepts that are incompatible with the core gameplay mechanics to draw a larger fanbase, and increase sales faster. And surprise, surprise, not only did it fail to draw a bigger fanbase (lets face it C&C4 had no chance of competing with Starcraft for the title of "supreme competitive RTS gaming") but it disenfranchised the small dedicated fanbase they already had. That was always going to be a recipe for failure, but of course the C&C franchise was always a relatively small part of EA's gaming portfolio, so it's loss as a successful game series wasn't very damaging to their overall success as a publisher. They could save money by cutting the series and giving the dedicated fans the middle finger rather than trickling money into a gaming franchise that wasn't making them much money anyway because the later games were awful.

I'm personally happy they decided to pull the plug for Generals 2. It looked awesome on a still image, until you see the gameplay with their limited construction areas, shitty sound effects, and abysmal unit physics which pales in comparison to the C&C3 Tiberium Wars and was also a blasphemy to the Frostbite Engine. Also remember their decision to make the game free to play, and seperate the single player campaign as DLCs, and also made the Generals as unlockable pay to play. If the game was released, it will be another stain to the franchise like C&C4.

@alienwizard9765 7 лет назад

Stronghold was an enjoyable experience for me from the beginning. I never played the patched versions because I moved along to another game. All in all, it all comes down to whether the community likes it or not. And to this one, the skepticism is just too much after C&C4 plus the consumers learned so much lesson from it and from many other games. Why free to play? Because of course the business model will approach the freemium and the community didn't like it. Why can't we get everything right from the beginning instead? Why showcase the game with shitty physics and shitty sound effects in the first place if the goal was really to win back the hearts of the community? The community know they rushed the game, like what they did with Twilight. Sad, I think they were bound with limited development time to create something they don't actually want to create. The community saw no love at all in that, only business and rushed product. And if the "corporate politics and shenanigans" statement was true, it only further proves the points I explained above.

Remake of C&C4 in C&C3's style would be good, but... it would be also making corps alive. After that what can be done in lore without Kane? Only another war berween GDI and Nod, but without him, which will be a mega big minus, because Kane was the face of all Tiberium Saga. Or maybe a true mmo like WoW or SWTOR?

I loved Red Alert 2's single player campaign, but I'd argue Supreme Commander Forged Alliance, Dawn of War (with the Dark Crusade expansion) and World in Conflict are all worthy challengers.

You can chart the rise and fall of ethics and morals and vision through the rise and fall of Westwood Studios and Ion Storm, through C&C + Deus Ex's productions. I cannot overstate that C&C helped define my entire psyche and put me down the path of playing video games at the ripe age of 5 years old, over 22 years ago. This game and Commander Keen, Wing Commander... Anything with Command, really. Back in the days of using COMMAND prompt to load C&C.EXE

@agentorange153 6 лет назад

They did, but not right away -- at first they built upon and improved C&C with Tiberian Sun through C&C3 (arguably through RA3), but then they turned around and COMPLETELY destroyed the ENTIRE franchise with C&C4, beyond ALL hope of revival!

TS was a Westwood game with more financial uspport. After that they started to be more EA games with their input bearing down further and further. The tonal change starts with C&C 3. I'd even argue that Generals was still more a Westwood game than it was an EA game in terms of the style and feel and the solid nature of the gameplay. The games just took a nosedive and because EA doesn't seem to ever take the time to understand why, they start making dramatic changes to studios, splitting people off, changing names, reorganizing management, and then finally closing things down when everything has turned to utter shit. They're scitzofrentic as a company.

@gagaplex 4 года назад

The first C&C had actually different factions. That actually wasn't very common in the beginning, mostly resulting in different factions being a different coat of paint rather than actually different mechanics.
