    Man, they won’t even remaster Tib Sun and RA2. You know fans would go absolutely bonkers for those, even moreso than original C&C/RA.

    I’m particularly bitter about the unreleased FPS shooter. Seeing the Scrin as actually in-person terrifying monsters, plus a more empathetic Brotherhood of Nod, could have made for some great stories.

      Yep, I put hundreds of hours into Red Alert 2 as a youngun. I would absolutely play the shit out of a remake, provided a map maker was furnished or created by the community. I fucking loved custom RA2 maps.

      Isn’t there aome kind of openC&C thing that basically remasters it, adds better modding support and modernizes the controls, similar to OpenTTD? 🤔

      I swear I fucked around with something like that a while back because I wanted to get down on some Tiberian Sun but I couldn’t even get my discs to install on Windows 10.

      TIBERIAN SUN!!! Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in forever. I looooove the artwork and style of that game

        Yes!

        The whole game’s aesthetic was fantastic. Nailed that kind of grungy, late-90s cyberpunk aesthetic in a voxel RTS game in a way that I don’t feel any has since. Something about the style made you feel like fighting in a world being strangled by Tiberium.

      I would happily shell out $60ea for remasters of RA2 and Generals. Improved graphics, proper modem compatibility (64 bit, Proton, ARM chips), maybe a modern vs original balance mode? I’d be happy as a clam.

      Renegade had some interesting gameplay ideas as a shooter, and a new C&C FPS has so much story potential. It’s a shame they cancelled the one, but a future release still has that potential. If they do it.

        Ah man, Renegade. Definitely had one of the more interesting multiplayer match concepts. The closest thing I’ve maybe seen was Planetside, and, uh… well, Planetside 2 has plenty of its own issues.

        But still. Good memories of shacking everyone into a flame tank, or running around like madmen trying to figure out where the hell that nuke beacon was planted. Have you seen the Tiberian Sun Renegade efforts?
