Info
cool stuff highlighted in boldIn the near future, world leaders are mere seconds from signing a global treaty and bringing an end to war as we know it when a devastating terrorist attack rips through the peace conference, killing all in attendance. In a world left with no politicians, diplomats, or activists, only the Generals remain. It’s up to you to assume their roles, command of their forces, and put an end to global terrorism once and for all.
- All-out War – Take control of three unique factions, competing for resources, building up your base of operation, and leading massive batteries of tanks, soldiers, and aircraft into battle.
- Uncanny Sense of Realism – Frostbite 2 technology allows for visceral, visually stunning conflict at an epic scale. Incredibly detailed units and environments, dynamic physics, and exhilarating visual effects bring the battle to life in ways never before seen. This is the closest thing to real war without the consequences.
New Ways to Dominate or Ally with your Friends – Go beyond classic deathmatch with a selection of new multiplayer game modes, designed with both cooperative and competitive play in mind.
Thrilling Campaign – Command the war on terror in an electrifying single-player campaign. Experience the dramatic story from multiple perspectives—from heroic General to crazed terrorist—while engaging the enemy in pulse-pounding tactical combat.
Ever-evolving Experience – Enhance your game with an expanding array of downloadable content. From maps and units to factions, campaigns, and more, the fight against terrorism is deeper than ever.
From the bold points:
- Base building is assumed to be back as opposed to CnC4's horrible attempt of having no base-building whatsoever.
- FROSTBITE 2 HOLY stuff IMGOINGTOCUMIMGOINGTOCUMIMGOI
NGTOCUM
- DLC, which probably means it'll use Origin and
not Steam because EA is pretty damn greedy when it comes to their DRM.

PCGamer:
At an unusually dreadful videogame awards show last night, EA finally opened the lid on the long teased Command and Conquer: Generals 2. Here’s the news: it’s being developed by a new studio branded “Bioware Victory”, and built using the same tech that powers Battlefield 3. The screens are quite pretty, and posted below.
It is NOT being developed by EALA! There is hope!

personal oponion:
Personally, I half-enjoyed the original Generals. It made for great fun but it was very much lacking in some ways. Being another title from EALA aka the corpse of Westwood reanimated, I'm very cautious to see how this will turn out considering the only real good title from that studio was CnC3. It's nice to see them use Frostbite 2, however. If it uses Origin and is priced at a high $60 then I won't buy it likely until it goes for at least $30 or less like BF3 did.
