If this has the same gameplay elements of C&C 4 I'm going to cry myself to sleep in a cold shower.

An RTS on Frostbite 2? Holy shit!

Ooh sexy. I need to get back into the RTS Scene. Last RTS I really enjoyed besides Dawn of War was Red Alert 3, and it was fucking fantastic.

EDIT: I loved the Empire of The Rising Sun. George fucking Takei was their emperor. :D

And Bioware has what experience in making RTS games? It's harder to go from RPG/TPS to RTS than RTS to RPG/FPS/TPS

It's not real Bioware; the studio was formerly Victory Games (out of EA Los Angeles's ashes) before EA decided to stick all their branches that weren't DICE or EA Sports under the Bioware label

Frostbite 2?

They should have titled the game "Command & Conquer: The Battlefield"

Since they're making this PC exclusive, I have faith that this will turn out better than the multiplatform C&C's and SupCom 2.

Seriously devs, if you want to put an RTS or turn based strategy franchise onto consoles and PC together, don't make them the exact same game. A gamepad optimized RTS just feels totally dumbed down and restricted on a PC, while a PC optimized RTS controls like shit and probably lags on a console (as was the case with Supcom 1). Firaxis knows how to do this - they created a spin-off Civ game for consoles and kept the proper experience on the PC. (yes Civ is turn based not RTS but it also has the same issues of just not working on PC and console at the same time).

LOL, endwar was such a dumbed down mess. Maybe there are worse ones, but it doesn't disprove the fact that the same strategy game cannot possibly succeed on both the PC and console at the same time.
