Command and Conquer 3

Seeing as now everyone of my friends are blogging about it, I guess I might as well too.

Lately this game has become "our" game ever since Darryl, Me and Roderick introduced it to every one.

A few days ago, The matchup was: Me, Terence and Roderick
vs
Oli, Furtado and Darryl.


Oli and Me: GDI
Roderick and Furtado: Scrin
Darryl and Terence: Nod


So each of us from 1 team chose different races. Anyway, just to fill you in a little

GDI (Global Defence Initiate) is the "good guy" in the game.

NOD: GDI's mainstream enemy. In the game, they are branded as the "bad guy" and terrorists

Scrin: A race of extraterrestrial nature, which later in the game becomes the enemy of the other 2 races.

The storyline is that : In 1995, a green crystal known as Tiberium appeared on the Earth's surface. Its nature was peculiar as when the green crystal came into contact with matter, it will turn it into more of itself, thus causing a widespread. Tiberium is harmful to the human body and causes poisoning. However, Tiberium is also a powerful catalyst and resource which can be also used for industrial purposes. GDI, the then protectors of the Earth, felt that they needed to contain the spread of Tiberium to prevent Earth from being infested with Tiberium which causes humans to lose their habitat. But another group, which later called themselves The Brotherhood of Nod saw Tiberium as the next generation resource for the future and began to study and use it without control. Contradiction in their beliefs and motivations led to war. And in that year, the first Tiberium War began with GDI forces battling on 2 fronts, one to contain the spread, and two, to prevent Nod from using Tiberium for their own purposes.

(I did not know how the 1st war end, my apologies)

Years later the second war followed, and it was then that Kane, the leader of the Brotherhood was somehow "killed" and believed to be dead. Since then on, the Brotherhood's actions became discreet, and Nod activity was from then on quiet, disorganized and uncoordinated

However, now in the year 2045, Nod activity began increasing in frequency and it was found that Kane was still alive, and has once again rallied the Brotherhood, to plunge the world into the Third Tiberium War, with all their arsenal of weapons new and improved to fight once again, to decide the future of this planet, and the use of Tiberium.

But then as the war goes on, a 3rd party becomes involved, one that is found to be not of this planet, begins to invade Earth. Their motives and agenda, are still unknown, only their race is to be identified as Scrin.

Currently, the world's landmass is classified into 3 categories.

The Red Zone, where spread of Tiberium have reached critical levels, leaves the land to be uninhabitable by humans, consists of 30% of the Earth's landmass.

The Yellow zone, where presence of Tiberium is partial, but still able to support life holds 50% of the Earth's land. The Yellow Zone is where The Brotherhood of Nod is believed to reside in.

The Blue Zone is the only remaining landmass that is not infested with Tiberium and is considered the last human city where humans can lead normal lives in, constitutes 20% of the Earth's land. The Blue Zone is also the main Headquaters for the GDI forces.





ok, i hoped you truly liked my explanation, but for the full details you can go play the game for yourself.

Anyway, today after I mugged like 4 hours at the Airport, I went to play with them again. Furtado had a personal agenda of vengeance as he wanted to rematch the last game where his team got totally owned by us.

History repeated itself again, as Me, Terence, Roderick and Marcus (Terence and Rod's friend) vs Oli, Darryl, Furt and Mark. Under Rod's leadership, he with his 55 Planetary Assault Carriers (he played Scrin) and I with my 75 Venoms (i was playing nod) owned them again.

But, special thanks must go to Terence, as he and I coordinated our superweapons. Each race has a superweapon that can cause immense damage, but needs 8 minutes to charge. So everytime there was an enemy building their's, we send ours to go destroy his superweapon building. (the building which houses the superweapon is extremely hardy. It takes 2 to destroy it fully, so coordination is of critical importance)


So in conclusion, we enjoyed another game. Now, I am starting to find Nod pretty interesting.


Command and Conquer 3 FTW!!!!!!!!!!
