Will there be C&C: Tiberian Sun remaster / remake?

[cbdeakin]

I always really liked the visual style and design of this game, I don't think later Command & Conquer games really managed to create an engaging narrative and the games weren't futuristic enough, in my view.

There was a lot of new features in Tiberian Sun (destructible terrain for example) that I think could be improved even further with a modern game engine. There were also some parts of the game that the Westwood team just never quite finished, there's an excellent postmortem of the game here:

So, I think it would make an excellent candidate for a modern Remaster, hopefully with a larger budget, or a less rushed development phase?

Here's some fascinating concept art created for the Command & Conquer 3 game originally planned by Westwood, as Tiberian Sun's sequel:

It reminds me of the future war in the original terminator film a bit :D

Maybe C&C 3 'Westwood / Petroglyph timeline' one day!

May the legal battles commence

We can only hope. For now....

Tell everyone you know to buy this remaster and the chances grows higher.

[Muad]

I hope so. Tiberian Sun was the last great game in the franchise for me.

[Jin-]

Lets hope and buy this one so that increases the chances

[Yvnu]

Yes please!

Bought this one because the guys at Petroglyph did it. Now i am hoping for Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 remasters.

Such good memories.

[Wilder]

yes +1

[Typhoon]

If they do, I hope they do a directors cut option which introduces all of the cut content they had to take out because of time constraints.

+1 Tiberium Sun was imho a great game - much love for good ol' cnc - but generals would be amazing too :>

[Yvnu]

I don't know if the Petroglyph folks worked on Generals when EA took over Westwood, i may be wrong.

Hadn't they been absorbed/spat out from EALA at that point? Wasn't Westwoods last RTS Emperor just after RA2?

Emperor: Battle for Dune was a great game, and I think gave a glimpse of some of the plans and improvements they had in mind for their next C&C game.

I remember it ran like crap until I got a better PC and there were initially problems installing the game (something to do with the CD install setup program).

[Peeto]

Yepy supported first remaster... to help them to remaster also tiberium sun. To me Tiberium Sun is the est command and conquer.

Hope so, I always found TS really hard but it was really fun. The maps were massive.

If they did a remaster or remake of Tiberian Sun, should it be in a modern 3D graphics engine, or more traditional 2D / 2.5D type of engine?

Just do what they did here: 4K remaster with all the extras. Give it a new engine and it suddenly becomes an excuse for a remake which ends up being ♥♥♥♥ like C&C4
