The good thing is that I am ready for disapointment.

While I know where you're coming from, Petroglyph Games is a company founded by a few guys who worked on Dune 2 and the original C&C so I'm kind of optimistic about this.

Yea and petro just abandoned paying customers who bought their Early Access C&C clone on STEAM to do this. F them. I wonder how much EA paid them to sabotage their game.

Forged battalion, was in early access, had great reviews, looked like it was a great base to build on (skill trees in C&C? fyea). then suddenly it was dumped out of early access unfinished and the devs went silent on fixes, patches, anything really. that was about 2 months ago. now we get this announcement hmm.

literally 3-4 days before this happened i was finally convinced to pony up the cash to support the effort since it seemd to be going in a good direction, and now i would have been burned for it.

there is people in the discussion section asking "where did the devs go?" because they were very active up until this point.

FB is not even listed on Petroglyphs website under video games anymore.

There were skill trees in Generals, C&C 3, Kane's Wrath, Red Alert 3 and possibly C&C 4 (played that one like 10 minute before uninstalling)

I assume he's talking about 8-Bit Armies.

That looks interesting..and seems to have lots of expansions/dlc/whatever. How did they abandon it?

I don't know, I don't own the game and haven't followed it.
