Give me one good fucking reason there's no remake.

>they lost the source code!
So what? It's not fucking rocket science, fans have already been reverse engineering it and a group of paid professionals could surely manage. Even if they can't make a fully faithful "remaster" then a "close enough" remake is doable.

>It's a niche genre / "RTS is dead"
The C&C Remastered Collection sold incredibly well and every cunting streamer played it when it came out. There's money on the table.

>tiberian sun sux lole red alert 2 is better
Red Alert 2 is the series darling because it's the last isometric sprite-based game/engine in the series before they made the switch to 3D. People ADORE the tiberium saga. People loved Renegade and C&C3. Just because C&C4 shat the bed doesn't mean the love for the tiberium universe up and died.

>Petroglyph doesn't want to do it
they're literally making a Renegade spiritual successor right now. They want another shake at Tiberian Sun so bad you can practically smell it.

>uncslop lmao

They'd never be able to recapture the magic of TS's atmosphere. That was lightning in a bottle stuff.
>>
>>743423050
My only issue with TS was the cutscenes. I don't want some shitty sci fi channel movie starring Slavik or McNeil, I want to be treated as the Commander like in the other games. At least Firestorm fixed this.

I will not, especially after the C&C + Red Alert remake did well.

>>743423050
EA doesn't need a reason.
"No" is enough of a good reason.

The reason is EA is retarded. Not exactly breaking news.
>>
>>743423050
they didn't lose the source code
When EA bought Westwood, the original code was held on some home computer from one of the developers, same with RA2
He nuked the computer after EA started making Generals and claimed 'the drive failed'

Remaster anon, REMASTER. Not Remake
C&C remake was/is good.

>>743423592
to be fair OpenRA is still a better experience than the remaster.

They've been "working on" Tiberian Sun for a long time but it's pathetically slow going.

>to be fair OpenRA is still a better experience than the remaster.
To be fair about what? The question isn't if someone can make a good open version of a game or not.
The question is when are they gonna give us TA remaster.

C&C3 was such a shit game, and they butchered Kane. Absolutely retardation without Westwood's independence

If EA had any plans to touch Generals again, they wouldn't have open sourced it a few years back
If you want a remaster or a remake of it, then go make one yourself

Ruining the classics with remakes is not "continuing". It's zombification.

>>743428182
EA like many other cancer publishers doesn't have third party keys Retarded-kun
And i'm not even sure if someone gift for me from a Latam region inside steam it would even work or just block it, well fuck EA i guess

The original TD and RA1 remaster was a happy accident. A higher up C-suit in EA had played the series when younger and had fond memories of it. So he pushed through the relatively cheap job and the ex-westwoodians had pretty laid back time working on it. Recovering the source code and original assets like cassette tapes

The C-suit moved on and since C&C is not cowadoody level, the revival was laid to rest

Not releasing the source code to public for enthusiasts to tinker on is the real shit part about the story. Or the original FMV tapes to public domain. But all signs indicate both of them have been lost completely, so what else is left? Assets like sprite work can be ripped from retail and for HD it needs a complete rework like they did with remaster. Outsourcing to a SEA subcontractor studio
>>
Stop demanding demakes for games that don't need them.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
>>
>>743423050
They remade the first one
Also just play the OpenRA version, otherwise the original + CnC.net is fine.
Why are you so desperate to spend $30 on a shitty remake?
>>
>>743429216
>Also just play the OpenRA version
give me a link to OpenRA Tiberian Sun.

The CIA funds dried up.
Westwood was given money and protips about how terrorist factions would become the next bad guys back in 1998.

But the american government no longer invest into these types of video games like they used to.

Check the mod-db page, the top one listed there is good.
Or just play the original since it works fine.
>>
>>743429384
so you're talking about the vibe coded mod made by a schizo that's riddled with bugs and insane engine quirks?

Do you really expect much from EA? Dead Space remake sold around 2 million copies and yet it's consider a flop. They prefer to make profit from ball and gun cumsumers rather than trying something risky. It got soo bad that Richard Garriott (Lord British) decided to obtain the Ultima trademark back by using the US copyright loophole rather than waiting for the response.
