I am the creator of the C&C Tiberian Dawn/Red Alert Redux Mod and the Realistic Weapon Mod for C&C Generals Zero Hour. You might also know me for pioneering a release of a Generals/Zero Hour Mod with enhanced revolutionary graphics! I have also been an assistant programmer and map designer for Vietnam Glory Obscured.
I am excited that the long awaited sequel to C&C Generals is now in development! However there are a few concerns that I hope get sorted out before its release in 1.5 years. Otherwise I may have to sadly boycott it just as I did with C&C4.
I just hope EA has learned their lesson from their past mistakes.
To the game developers I have a few notes for success:
DO:
Keep the gameplay and atmosphere of the original game.
Add new units, missions, and "gameplay innovations" that would ENHANCE the original concepts.
Add a more DIVERSE and INNOVATIVE singleplayer mode.
(Also Look at the old C&C games that feature a map that allows you to select up to four different missions in the singleplayer campaigns.)
Keep Skirmish & Generals Challenge!
Add Naval Warfare!
Add Global Conquest Mode!
MAP MAKING SOFTWARE & MOD SUPPORT IS A MUST!
And bring in both Bill Brown & Frank Klepacki to compose for the game!
DON'T:
Cut out the core gameplay mechanics.
Add half-naked women in every cutscene and mission briefing.
Make ridiculously over-saturated cartoon styled graphics.
Force players to always play online even in singleplayer missions and skirmish mode.
(The fans like to play C&C games anytime, anywhere WITHOUT the leash of an active internet connection, thank you very much!)
Follow these guidelines and this will be the best C&C game ever!

Dude couldn't you resurrect the TD mod for Tiberium Wars? You can probably ask the current developer if you can update that mod. Would be epic now that you're done with TDR
Unfortunately I cannot comment yes or no. Though members have been added to the TSR team to finally finish that Mod.
To finally see TSR will be so great!
But I bet you could make some great additions to the TD mod as well:

Hey mate I bought a Windows XP PC again to get some programs to work again and to ofc play some old games again. Really looking forward to some Generals ofc and especially now that you made all these campaign missions gonna give your mod a go too!
Its a really fun odyssey first I had to get that Quadro card out and put my old *** 8400GS inside. Now I find out that bloody Windows XP refuses to install USB drivers for mouse and keyboard automatically so I have to track down one of those ancient mouses to be able to use the PC in the first place and I am sure there's gonna be more xD
Well I hope I don't bore you with this story of mine and wanted to say again you're doing awesome modding work man I am looking very much forward to playing it again.
Its taking me forever as well to update and polish up the TS missions in... just plain old TS xD
Hey sorry for not replying sooner. Haven't checked this a while, but hey it sounds fun! lol And good luck!
