The Game is built on the same engine BFME2 was built it, with nice saturated graphics and HDRI sun effects. The actual units such as helicopters and tanks look so realistic for there time I felt like I was watching a movie with live units. The level layout is very much like the CnC we see today, but has all the perks you can want in the new series. When I was shown the game play everything ran very smooth and was really just a jaw dropping moment. I couldn’t believe CnC 3 was actually alive. The selecting of units and placing units is very much like any other RTS on the market today, but it does have a few nice flashy waypoint and spot selection graphics, that let you know where you just sent your units.

The actual Fiction and story behind the game is probably the best I have ever seen, With showing how GDI are try to secretly save the world and as NOD is convincing the world GDI is the enemy You can only see how EA has a great story on there hands, and if you have played any of the games out of the series you know what I am talking about. But the real catch is how these 2 factions are split up in either your GDI or not GDI, until they came. Now this is the hanger they left me on, as they zoomed out from beyond the earth it seemed a space ship was coming out of deep space. What faction are they, how do they work is not known just yet.

According to the trailer, the coverup didn't quite work out, thanks to the meddling of C&C's classic "bad guy" faction, the Brotherhood of Nod. Led by the evil mastermind Kane, Nod discovered tiberium's other potential as a powerful energy alternative, and attempted to discredit the GDI by exposing the coverup in the year 1995 (the year in which the original Command & Conquer game was released). This sequence of events polarized the world, so that the world's inhabitants aligned themselves with either GDI or Nod, a standoff that was threatening enough to global stabilty until, as the narrator of the trailer explained against a wide shot of Earth from outer space, "they came."

Mike Verdu: I'm actually very excited about the work we're doing on the single player campaigns. We will reward your style of play in each of the campaigns, letting you make choices before and during missions that fundamentally alter how subsequent missions play.

Each of the three campaigns in the game will consist of chapters that we're calling "Theatres of War". A Theatre of War is a specific geographic location - like Scandinavia - where you will fight a series of related missions. You can choose your missions based on your style of play and strategy. For example, one mission might be about capturing a very large airfield while another might be a battle over a huge port. You get to choose which mission you play. If you capture the airfield, then you deprive your enemy of his air support in future missions while gaining the ability to call in special air strikes. If you capture the port, you gain access to some special naval units. The choices you make affect later missions.

In addition to the cool new single player campaigns, we are updating C&C gameplay so that it feels fresh - adding mechanics that are standard to cutting edge RTS games and creating some new features and innovations to drive the genre forward. Some examples of the new features include mobile bases, units that gain capabilities based on how close they are to the center of an Ion Storm (which can be summoned and controlled by one of the three game factions), and units that can work together to grant the player new battlefield capabilities.

It's also worth mentioning the return of the side-bar interface: Our in-game UI for C&C3 is a side-bar that will feel familiar to C&C players but it has some added features that make it more useful - and make it feel interesting and new. We are combining the centralized production queues in the classic C&C side-bar with contextual space for selected units and structures. The new UI lets you quickly build units and structures, easily control grouped units, and access your build queues anywhere on the map - even in the middle of a battle. But you can still get lots of information about your selected units and activate their special abilities - which is pretty much expected in the latest generation RTS games. We think our interface for C&C3 is the best of both worlds.

Notice the change in transparency of the signs depending on your angle of viewing. Definitely a glimpse of some of the advanced effects available.
