Mod Updates

+ Excellent C&C3 mod; Tiberian Sun Rising have posted the latest update following a public exhibition at Australia's Freeplay Independent Games Festival featuring a new snow theatre, and it looks very cool! There's also a concept art of the Nod MCV that our very own Rico has been working on, the mod's creator Assassin assures me that once you've seen it animated, your scepticism will vanish!
+ Vietnam Glory Obscured have made their latest update which coincides with this Zero Hour mod's 6th anniversary explaining the mod's unique economy system; capturing and controlling villages. The faint red line in the screenshot below shows that this village belongs to the red team and is generating funds for them.
+ Tiberian Odyssey have released a trailer showcasing the new units and structures which will feature in the beta 1.0 release. This mod primarily introduces naval combat into Tiberian Sun and you can view some of that in the trailer below:

European Conflict Released
|
A second mod in as many days has released the impressive milestone of first public beta. European Conflict is a Zero Hour mod which features impressive eye-candy in terms of the new units and structures which are added, not only that but the voices and generals are also completely new!
The final mod will feature three full factions, but this beta contains just the UAN (United Asian Nations) faction, so it's your job to sort out a civil war before unleashing your skills on the rest of the world in later releases.

Twisted Insurrection Released
|
I've very pleased to inform you that Tiberian Sun mod Twisted Insurrection has released public beta version 1. It's always a momentous day when a mod reaches a public release stage and represents years of labour from the mod team, so congrats to them!
Twisted Insurrection is a mod for Tiberian Sun set in 2019. The Tiberian World now stands with a very uncertain fate. The two most powerful and influential forces on the planet are trapped in a never ending dead lock of war and combat. Whilst the Global Defense Initiative has suffered many military defeats, the faction itself still stands strong. The Brotherhood of Nod has struggled and triumphed over its enemies, only for its victory to be short lived by the death of Kane, causing a deterioration through the Brotherhood and leading to defeats and chaos.

C&C4 Mobile Released
|
Well this one has rather snuck up on us; Command & Conquer 4 Mobile has been released. This isn't a touch-screen iPhone exclusive like Red Alert, but a return to the standard mobile phone conversion we saw for C&C3, but maintaining the class and crawler system, albeit it slightly trimmed back:
- Command your mobile base -- The Crawler -- a moveable fortress with all the functions of a command center
- Choose to play defensive and build turrets around your Defensive Crawler. Or step into the battle and destroy your enemy with the help of the Offensive Crawler
- Researchable active and passive abilities make each unit a master in its class on the battlefield.
- Enter the commandment mode to think through your steps and plan how you solve challenging situations
- Evolve your battle strength and deploy Super Weapons. Call for massive destruction with the Ion Cannon or call for help and get the Orca Strike
- Play through two campaigns with two fate-changing finals. Choose the path of the GDI or ally with the Brotherhood of Nod -- It’s up to you!
- Harvest Tiberium Crystals for needed research or currency to keep your army alive and growing.

C&C IV: Tiberian Eclipse Mod Interview
|
C&CNZ has just interviewed Coolness7, the director and the leader of the C&CIV: Tiberian Eclipse Mod for C&C3 Tiberium Wars. In this interview, he enlighten us on the mod features. Here is the brief interview.
Quote:
Please tell us something about yourself and about your mod team?
I'm Damien, aka, Coolness7, aka, Naraku and I like Strategy games, Call of Duty, Need For Speed. I own a ps3 and I'm not as addicted to Starcraft 2 as some of the other people on the mod. The mod team does their best and even though there are about 20 of us, only about 6-10 of us get online at the same time (usually). Jay is the project coordinator and he runs the website, he's very helpful when he's not PO'd about something, and out of all of our team, everyone wants to do the storywriting, the team really comes up with great ideas and its a shame that we can't use them all.
As we all know you've made a great start with your mod so can you please tell us something about it?
This mod started out as an idea to bring classic gameplay to C&C4, but since a C&C4 SDK was never released and probably never will be, we decided to move the project over to C&C3. At first we all put together our ideas and we didn't have the experience to put the plan into motion, but as time went on, we got support and more great team members. This mod plans to bring the C&C4 class system into C&C3 and fuse it with traditional gameplay that we wanted to see in C&C4.
