What's the reason behind this?
Pc exclusive

They tied the animations to the fps I shit you not.
most likely shitty coding
some engines start to break down when they can run into high framerates
not usually in RTS games, mind you, but in lots of 3D games that use physics said physics stop working properly above 30/60fps and it can have hilarious results
Look up Doom railboosting
>EA
It's not PC exclusive. There was an xbox360 version IIRC.
it was on xbox 360 too
Fuck that game was good.
Hah never noticed that one before.
The GDI crane does the robot dance every now and then too.
cute
FIGHTERS ARM UP!
PEETBULL READY FOR ACTION
WE GOT THE ROCKETS!
WE FIGHT FOR NOD
this game had fantastic unit quotes
Westwood-made engine from fucking 2001.
>engine limitations
thats not a thing
CUTE
>When the Black Hand has arrived.
I wish we got more of this, but with a better engine, where fps can go to 144 that doesn't break physics.
Like Tiberian Sun was great, Tiberium wars was good, then it wall went wrong with CNC4 and it just crash and burned from there.
Why...why did my favorite franchise have to die like that.
That's a thing. The teams were forced to work with an old, broken engine that caused the destruction of the modding community.
honestly 3 was kino and the alien race was fun.
>thats not a thing
It is a thing. Or at least was a thing. I don't know if user is right about it apply to C&C 3, but some engines used ticks for stuff like physics or other gameplay time actions so a higher framerate would literally fuck the game up.
That was more a thing in the 90s so I actually would be kind of surprised if C&C3 didn't have frame/engine independence, but it was a real issue. And I know PS2 games where that was the case, like Shadow of the Colossus which then caused trouble for ports and emu later on.
>tfw C&C 3 came out 20 years ago
>pc exclusive
It was on the 360 too.
your thinking of tib sun user, C&C 3 came out 12 years ago
cnc3 was still pretty shit tho, there is no reason to celebrate what marked the real beginning of the end of the series (sun was rushed sure but still had some of the pre-EA spirit).

because you fucking brazilians have shit specs. not that you could afford to buy the game anyway even if you tried.
>Fuck that game was good.
It wasn't though. Fuck that game. Yeah 4 was an dogshit abomination but that doesn't make 3 retroactively "good" vs 1 and sun.
bruh
did this game kill your mum or something
it was a good game
>That was more a thing in the 90s
Except all Bethesda games still have this problem. Yeah I know
>Bethesda
Engines are expensive. This was a home-grown engine they were sole maintainers of and never got the budget for a full rewrite needed to decouple game logic from rendering.
They kept making game after game with rather limited time and resources.
>thinking you can play an RTS normally on anything but a PC
but its not because of engine limitations
its because of bad devs
He he, nottin personel kiddo
they were drunk
I guess the time has come for me to post this youtube.com
Those were crazy pre-patch. Like something from a horror movie, really made the Scrin scary.
I said more a thing not ONLY a thing, I gave an example of at least one console game I knew of from the 00s that had it.
Yeah, decoupling game logic and rendering actually took quite a while in the industry. And like you say the economics of most places tends to drive reusing engines, after all for most companies engines alone have no inherent value they're investments for the future so it's the classic "cost center" problem.
Shame that the soundtrack was the most generic and forgettable shit imaginable. I seriously cannot remember a single track from this game.
how could this lead to 4 again?
generals best game
china will glow lahger
I just wanted to point out how shit Bethesda are.
C&C4 ruined the franchise 30 years ago
Best mods for this game?
>sun was good
Worst millennial nostalgia there is.
>I just wanted to point out how shit Bethesda are.
Fair enough.
It didn't. Everyone should know the story by now. CnC 4 wasn't meant to be CnC 4. It was originally an Asian market only E-sports Arena game that EA randomly decided to turn into a full CnC title with rushed (less than a year) development and a glued on campaign.
The game was originally to be called CnC Arena.
>cnc3 was good
>sun was bad
Like China, the contrarian bullshit from children will grow stronger.
what fuck EA
