    Have to issue a major correction for this video. The map at 10:49 is incorrect. At the time, I thought that the information regarding New Eden, and the cities that the region encompassed was referring to a small village called Berne. Which is right next to the larger city of Bremen. However, the information was actually referring to the capital city of Bern in the country of Switzerland. So the blue zone area shown in this video should be ignored.

    I never really understood why Tiberium Sun looked so much more futuristic and dystopian than the sequels. The story makes sense to some degree, but the visuals and technology in use, not so much. Remember the yellow/orange tiberium lifeform that damaged and destroyed vehicles in Tiberium Sun? That felt much more threatening than bad weather in a red zone.

    • @Jethild
      @Jethild  Před 3 lety +151

      From what I know, though I would have to do more research on the subject, the main difference was the developer's for each game. Tiberian Sun was made by Westwood who had their own vision for how they wanted the Tiberium Timeline to play out. They even started work on their own C&C 3 game. But when EA closed Westwood and made their own studio, EA Los Angeles, they decided to take things in a different direction. One that wasn't as futuristic or dystopian as Westwood's. They wanted the world to go back to feeling more "grounded" in reality similar to Tiberian Dawn. Since apparently their were some fans at the time who did not like the more futuristic setting of Tiberian Sun.

      a in universe reason is given in that after the war almost all GDI funding shifted to getting rid of tiberium that the other projects were put on hold or outright canacelled it explains this in the intel files about the mammoth tank replacing the walker from the last war they were seen as cheaper units not needing as much work to maintain and upgrade so they stopped working on improving the more high tech stuff from the last war in favor of cheaper mass produced stuff

    default GDI is also present, they control the base in the top Right corner of the map, which launches normal Orcas against your Base.

    the only true way to play the factions of the GDI in Tiberium Wars is to pick a main one you want as standard then on the max player maps set the other factions as easy enemies and cap rush them by this i mean only build the needed things for taking the other factions over fast so at least 40 engineers and apc/transports works really well is you have multi build ques for building mainline buildings as then you can also provide Air transport which can be used to send normal soldiers to defend the engineering team while you take the base in one of my longer 8v8 games i had one of sub-faction in it and by the time it was half way through i had all the gdi factions and all but one of the nod under my command the scrin lost a main faction drone ship which started to work for me from the back field the reason most people have issues with this tactic is they dont capture the key buildings first ignore all power and refinery building and only go for the main one like warfactory barracks and MCV then power the last one should always be the refinery as no matter what they are the same building no matter the faction

    ZOCOM and the Steel talons should have been given more funds so they could not only crush Nod and push the Scrin back! ZOCOM could use the funds from their operations in red and yellow zones to give enough dosh to not only the Steel talons but also to give them some extra spending money.

      The entire GDI economy of the world at that point barely makes sense, if it does at all.
      Who is buying the refined Tiberium? Why are they paying significant amounts of money for it? Sure, it's full of valuable and useful minerals and other resources, but it's also everywhere. There is so much more supply than demand, unless the GDI heavily restrict who they allow to have licenses to extract and refine Tiberium from the civilian populous. Despite having the technology to do so relatively safely, and the fact that they want to get rid of Tiberium for the most part. Letting private businesses (with heavy regulations and very strict and thorough inspections for each load) assist in that, within areas defended from Nod attacks, would be nice.

    The number 4 is also the final installment of the franchise, Tiberium twilight, and the pre-intro of the main campaign told us that ZOCOM totally failed in their mission in red zones across the planet in order to contain the spreading of the dangerous crystals which had already been reached a critical level of infestation.

    • @adamofblastworks1517
      @adamofblastworks1517 Před rokem +3

      The problem here is that the majority (or a very loud minority) refuse to accept Tiberium Twilight as cannon, for multiple reasons, including the story. Especially the stuff about Kane suddenly working with GDI to contain and push back the Tiberium. The part about ZOCOM completely failing their mission in red zones is part of the explanation for that.

    I remember always playing skirmish games all the time as the vanilla GDI faction with the other 2 GDI sub-factions sandwiching me in as easy AI enemies just so I could capture then command the whole tree. Including 3 MARVS. Two of them carrying 3 missiles and 1 sniper. While the last one had 2 snipers, 1 zocom trooper & raider.
    All that against all 3 of Nods factions as extra-hard AI's.

    Hey Jet, think you could provide some tips for the campaigns of Tiberium 3 for the current version on Steam. Since the patches prior to me acquiring the game were Multiplayer focused EA ended up leaving the campaign completely untouched in regard to balancing it around these changes which for me is making a massive unenjoyable experience that at least for me is turning me away from even touching the campaign as previous playthroughs/walkthroughs of Tiberium 3 were of previous versions of the game before these patches were introduced making whatever they would provide completely null and voided.

    Also given that the triberium rockets that screwed up germany in the first place were constructed outside of hamburg if that was more to the southwest and a likely retaliation strike the direkt falllout could have screwed bremen hard not to mention hamburg most likely putting northern germany dangerously close if not outright into red zone territory

    What does the world look like if ZOCOM has its way?
    Does GDI as an organization get to keep harvesting and growing their own supply of Tiberium, or does ZOCOM put their boot down?

    Slight correction on pronounciation:

    The R comes after the E. "Bremen"
    You can pronounce this like this:
    First "BRE" (Pronounced like the "bre" in "Breathless") then "MEN" like the english word: Men.
    Bre-men. Bremen.
    The other cities are pronounced perfectly fine. (Tho I still find it odd that "Köln" is turned into Cologne in english ... Would be like turning "New York" into "Neues Jork" in german xD )

    GDI won. they have tiberium contained. but due to how it shaped the world, they simply cannot afford to get rid of it since it still has so much use to them and has become a foundation on which the world operates. ZOCOM hates this. they want to see all tiberium gone forever. then maybe blow up the scrin on their homeworld and wipe it from the universe too.
    So they attack. they attack GDI. turning on their founders, they begin to see GDI as only slightly better then the brotherhood... or possibly worse.

    With your inability to stomach the Lore of CnC4 its obvious that some of your ending stuff is made up heavily... It wasnt ZOCOM who basicaly rendered tiberium dead in the end, it was a joint effort of kane and the GDI, utilizing the tatsitus , sonic tech AND scrin tech to do so.
    Plus it became obvious that Kane wanted Earth to be PREPARED to face off against the Scrin (as the first and second war basicaly where planed to be lost by him, with the 3rd triggering the attack of a scouting fleet and showing GDI that there IS a threat that they can handle IF they invest more into their ion cannons AND kodiak warships (wich they did. CnC 4 shows us that even a full scale scrin invasion would have ben repelled at that stage as the world, now more or less united under the GDI, was waaaaay overequiped). And ofc. Kane just wanting to go back home AND take his followers with him (wich he did. Not only he did leave earth, but most if not all of the NOD people with him even thou they had peace at long last with NOD followers living in GDI blue zone city's).
    So basicaly : Deal with it that it expands AND finishes the lore. If your that uptight like the people who brought down the final game ever to be created in the franchise then your lost...
