Tiberian Sun 3 - Name Change
I've been wanting to fix the name of the mod for some time and have not found a suitable title that captures what my mod is and it's theme. I originally called it Tiberian Sun 2 but to my dismay found it taken (probably happen's all the time). So I made it Tiberian Sun 3 and moved on, Firestorm is 2.0 so in a sense my mod will be 3.0. This was fine for ahwhile but people kept asking me "What happened to 2?" There is no Tiberian Sun 2 so for me to call it 3 was silly, but after some brainstorming I've finally found the title / name of my mod:
So Hence forth It shall be called, C&C: The Second Tiberium War
Why did I choose this? Well the mod isnt a total conversion and my original intent was to improve upon Tiberian Sun not to change it to another game entirely. So "The Second Tiberium War" tells you the era/theme of the mod and still refers to Tiberium Sun. (and its not taken yay!
)
1.3 Progress:
At the moment 90% of the menu's have been changed to fit a 1024 resolution and re-organized to be more efficient.
Speed and balancing have greatly improved and I'd have to say GDI is 130% better than before and Nod 115%. Unit veteran ratio has been adjusted and a few balance changes will allow you to see fully veteran units more often and its alwasy fun having a fully veteran artillery with burst fire...
As for AI they are currently more difficult than in 1.2 but I am planning on rescripting AI.ini from scratch. Task forces will be specifically designed to kick your butt without changing the wave size from 5 titans to 50. They will be smart by attacking important resources such as power and tiberium with the units I made efficient for that. (You think stealth tanks were annoying before...)
And for mapping, i've only completed 2 new maps and have scrapped all original TS maps to keep the quality high. In total there is only 8 multiplayer maps and anyone can tell you, thats not enough. I want alot more so I'm making you all wait. Version 1.2 has been out for a long time and 1.3 will drastically improve upon on it, but it's going to take some time for me to do that.
I already have some good things planned for 1.4, and yes I do look that far ahead. I keep a few notebooks next to me and at anytime I get a idea, I jot it down.
Thanks for your support and your patience. Now back to modding...
