As a kid, I always assumed Tiberium was a metaphor for fossil fuels and climate change, but I don't know if I've ever actually seen that officially stated anywhere?

It was really disappointing the first time I sniped the obelisk with a rush and just watched the gunboats sail impotently back and forth shooting at nothing until a rebuilt obelisk could take them out. It would have been a lot of fun if the gunboats could hit the con yard, power plants, or any of the other production buildings.

Maybe this isn't the right thread, but I can't imagine there's a better thread either. How has the Command & Conquer series been received in China? Obviously China was a faction in Generals, there's a Chinese modding community, and I seem to recall some mobile games that include C&C art assets. Are any of the games popular? How are GDI and Nod perceived politically/ideologically? Is the Chinese scene integrated with the "western" one, or is it unique?

Red Alert 3 was a good game imo, but it became unfun to play when everyone discovered the best cheese strategies for each map and faction combination. I'm not saying every match should be no rush 20 minutes, but the constant barrage of early game all-ins was annoying. I think I got into the top 50s on 1v1 ladder just building Tengus and letting them explode next to enemy harvesters. Enemy MCVs running over my building pods was the bane of my existence, but I had no trouble sending fake barracks pods to drive over enemy dogs/bears/engineers/etc.

Why the third faction didn't get anti air infantry is baffling to me.

Are there any especially good mods out there? Are there enough people still playing for creating new mods to be worth it?

I want to play something like an RTS version of Renegade/A Path Beyond. Maps with pretty pre-made bases.

I also would like to play something like C&C Rivals on the Remastered engine. :twisted:

Surely we'll be getting a Sole Survivor remaster next, right?
