Sneakgab Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Are we speaking about the same ''going gold'' here? ???Here in SA a game only goes gold 2 or 3 years after it's release, and ''going gold'' refers to the game becoming much cheaper because it is old, somewhat like clearance sales discounts.

Timenn Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 He he. Seth was from way back, the Command & Conquer.The Command & Conquer series ended with Tiberian Sun for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Yeah I know he was from way back. Shot by Kane in the middle of a mission briefing, if I remember correctly. I don't know what the trailer has to do with him and his fate though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the trailer has to do with him and his fate though.Well, the trailer shows a Nod leader denouncing Kane and apparently trying to overthrow him (or his legacy, if he thinks Kane is dead). The last person to try that was Seth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Ah, so that's the link! Seth's death was definitely a classic moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Oh, I only ever play the GDI campaigns for some reason, I never seem to get round to the Nod ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Even in the first C&C game? That game was just classic for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yup, even in the first one. I don't like being the bad guy :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 You should try it. The Nod campaign is really fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yup, even in the first one. I don't like being the bad guy :PYou've not tried Nod even out of pure interest? Odd enough. Playing only one side is just like reading only a half of a book... ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Actually, I may have played it in the original Command and Conquer...is that where you control the Ion Cannon at the end, and can destroy a target city of your choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I don't remember using any ion cannon as Nod. There was a mission in which you had to capture the advanced communication centre (the structure that gives you the ion cannon) as an objective. The mission would simply end after that.Since when were you able to use a superweapon (not really super in the first C&C like in the various spin-offs later) to destroy a city?

Dunenewt Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 From the Wikipedia page of the Eiffel Tower:1995: In the real-time strategy game of Command & Conquer, the tower is one of four selectable targets for the Global Defense Initiative's hijacked Ion Cannon weapon during the ending sequence of the Brotherhood of Nod scenario.

MrFlibble Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Yes, that was the very special Nod ending, where you first got a cutscene with Nod cyberspace soldiers (one of them played by Frank Klepacki BTW) hacking the Ion Cannon controls, and then Kane allowed you to choose a target for an Ion Cannon strike (the four targets being the Big Ben, the Eiffel Tower, the White House and the Brandenburg Gate). When the credits rolled, you were showed a newscast telling that the attack was blamed on the GDI, signifying their defeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Yup, even in the first one. I don't like being the bad guy :P What are you talking about? Nod is clearly the side of progress and justice. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFlibble Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 What are you talking about? Nod is clearly the side of progress and justice. ;DI wanted to say something similar, but Nod is called BadGuy in the internal C&C language (e.g. "Scenario 1 control for house BadGuy."), so they are bad guys "ontologically", although I agree and would side with Nod, not GDI :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 House Badguy? Sounds like a Dune reference to me, was this the original C&C? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
