It may look like some of those tanks and trucks are floating. Yes, they are, we are testing the hover ability.

Quoting Vefb above, from this thread in the fifth post downwards: http://www.ppmsite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24556

Making the effort of actually looking around for starters could have helped, no?

This gives me an idea. Is there someone up for the task of rendering the concept art based Tick Tank just so we can see it in the engine as a test?

Why and what for?

So I'm alone in wanting to see this unit "in-game"?:

I will disappoint you. Soon the story will be changed and the game will take place out of the TS, and Westwood univerce.

I hope you still will be interested in the project.

It's not like your going to turn this into Warcraft, and change the genre into first person shooter, the RTS was probably a hoax to lure one in right? Yes I'm still interested. xP

No, too much issues with EA,copywrights, etc.

Still, the story will become better.

It will be about humanity after a third world war and the time before a alien race will arrive to Earth.

You could still mix some story elements from the Tiberium series and others (Halo, Resistance, etc.).

Hm,quite curious,how are these stuff coded like?(The units I mean,not the engine.)

Other than that,quite cool.

How far off does all of this go?

Will there be <resource> harvesting, <resource> refineries and <resource> silo's?

Will there be Mcv's, engineers, helipads, powerplants, superweapons, stealth generators, walls, etc?

The key here is function and gameplay similarity. I understand there will be new things, but will there be old things aswell?

What I mean: Is the fundamental change basically just the storyline?

Vefbl4 · General **Joined**: 07 Feb 2007

Units are simular to westowoods shps, nothing special.

Still we use pngs ,later we will change that.

We will try to make all of that harvesting and other stuff. But gameplay will be different, more radical.

EA is not known for being picky at these types of projects. There was one time when a game engine called freecnc was under development, and initially EA thought that it was a project that was going to give C&C1 out for a free download under the pirate principle, however when it was clarified that the copyrighted assets were not distributed with the engine, being graphics and sounds, they gave it an ok. You would need to have the original game CD to extract the media files from.
