Third faction ?

[Cheesy]

Hey, is it planned to introduce a third faction someday down the road ? Feel like two factions might get a lil stale after a while

Good game though so far

[Dreepa]

Yep. The Veti.

[Cheesy]

ah very nice- thx

[ShocKa]

Veti is it alien race?

I haven't played through the 3rd mission yet, but I'm wondering if this game messes around with time travel as they did in C&C with Albert Einstein interjecting.

'Cause I'd love that Red Alert stuff (yeah, I know, you can still get it on Steam). Even including the Japanese faction from later.

Devs said they're still working on them, no release date as of yet.

[Sightlessfate]

I thought a third faction was supposed to be included at launch? Or was that my imagination?

Hopefully that third faction plays differently since so far I am seeing the Dynasty as the aggressive overpowered faction which the majority of the players will play online. GDF feels very under powered, but somewhat focuses on defense with guard towers and the siege tank.

I mean this game is basicaly tiberium wars 3. Lets just hope they dont overtune the aliens.
I hope they differenciate the factions more. Also get rid of the DYN testicle unit. Its seriously so out of place.

so far having beat both campaigns and fought the veti with both factions i can say they are well balanced with some unique units and some powerful attackers their defenses seem a bit weaker overall then GDF or dynasty emplacements but their air units are very versatile and their artillery / siege walker are dumb strong

As some reviewers have pointed out, this game is kinda like a non-labelled Early Access. We were promised the Veti, but they may come on the 24th in a now so-called Launch Patch for Skirmish and Multiplayer modes.

They will need their own campaign though, and to be honest. I wouldn't say no to that as a DLC so long as it's packed with a large amount of additional Skirmish/MP maps as well. This would be outside some free maps that the game desperately needs, because the current amount of maps is quite frankly abysmal.

yeah i was kinda sad when i beat both the campaigns and wasnt met with a "Scrin" story to play that i had unlocked so i was like eh ill finally try the skirmish and play them there and they didnt show up so i looked in here and found they didnt drop with "release" for the early access of the game so all around big sad but hopefully they add it later

At the beginning, yes. But they made an announcement more than a year ago that the game will only launch with 2, to make the launch smoother and settle the balancing between 2 factions first.
