Royalty: Rade, I have a quick question for ya. Please answer. I really appreciate it! Ok heres the question. How many minutes of FMV (full motion video) are there in TS? Apx??
Rade: A bit less than an hour.

Leephus: Do you have any plans for Tiberian Sun that might not have made it into the game if Erik Yeo had stayed until the release?
Adam Isgreen: Not really. Erik had completed the unit designs before I was handed the project. I'm just taking all of the existing units and balancing them. They may change a bit in weapon types / firepower, but that's to be expected at this point -- we want the game well balanced.

Chris: Will there be a level editor?
Adam: There is a random map generator already in place that lets you make your own multiplay maps and save them off. You can adjust many different aspects of the map, and the generator has produced some very cool maps for people to play on. As for a complete editor, it is not likely with the initial release. Our editor is very esoteric and not user friendly. Only die-hards would even attempt to use it. Since we don't want to delay the release of TS, it is most likely that if an editor were to be available, it would with an add-on or a download from the net at a later date.

Chris: Will there be another C&C game?
Adam: Yes. The C&C line was planned as a trilogy of games, with RA being the pre-trilogy game. The next game Tiberian Twilight, should be very cool, but we need to finish TS first! :)

Goldfish: Can you give us some info on the Temple of Nod?
Adam: It is big, cool, and gives Nod a neat ability.

Goldfish: Do you have new names for the Mechs?
Adam: Yes we do.

Goldfish: When a tank blow up, will it damage units around it?
Adam: Yes.

Zed: What stage is TS at now? What have you done to it recently?
Adam Isgreen: Balancing and tuning solo-play missions and multiplayer play. That's really all that's left. All movies are in place, and all the solo-play stuff is basically done.

GenKiller: For home network players, will there be a second disk (ex. a Nod disk) in which the second player can put into their computer that will allow the game to be played through the network? Or, will the players have to buy a seperate Tiberian Sun game in order to play network games?
Rade: You can use the second disk for a second player in multiplay. The copy protection is completely transparent to legitimate users so they won't even notice it.

Erik will leave to 7 Studios, where he could get an ownership. He said that Tiberian Sun is "in good hands." He also confirmed his leaving, but said that he will look back to his time at Westwood. In an Interview, another leader at Westwood, Aaron Cohen, said that Adam Isgreen, the lead designer of Red Alert, will replace Erik. Brett Sperry is strongly involved in TS and will be the boss behind future games, such as Tiberian Twilight.

"OK here is something that is not known about TS, When you click your right mouse button and then move the mouse down a little you will scroll your view, Basically it makes it so you don't have to go all the way to the edges of your screen to make your view go up, down, left, or right. Its pretty cool."

"Who controls the past, controls the future: who controls the present controls the past."

Andrew: I heard from Cyberman0 that the Hunter Seeker drone might be cut, is that true?
Rade: No, it hasn't been cut. I was just watching it work today.

Andrew: Is Kane really dead?
Rade: No, I actually saw him in his office today and had a conversation with him. :)

• The game has not been held back until December and also, it is not optimised for a Pentium III, as if we believed that anyway!
• Last Year, Westwood updated their site each day with what was revealed at the E3 trade Show, this year "It's possible they'll have something at E3" (Sounds pretty likely!)
• Westwood will be releasing some more music from Tiberian Sun soon.
• There may be a screenshot function in the game so you can save screenshots just by pressing print screen (like in Starcraft)

"I read the story about the drop ship and is true. I just bought Alpha Centauri and inside was a book with all the different games that EA publishes including Tiberian Sun. In it, it said "Built in way point system and special drop ship missions let you decide what units to bring into battle." I thought you might be interested."

34. Command and Conquer & C&C: Red Alert
It is old now, of course, but the granddaddy of the Real Time Strategy genre as we know it today still stands up to a great deal of playing. Before Total Annihilation, this used to be the way Luke and I spent the long winter nights in the absence of female company and/or a social life and the diversity of its single player missions and the specialist units still deserves a mention. It laid the groundwork for the best Real Time Strategy we're playing now and, indeed, the best RTS games of the future. Command and Conquer: We salute you.
