IGN heeft wat info losgelaten over de add-on van Command and Conquer: Tiberian sun, genaamd Firestorm. Hij zou in februari gereleased moeten worden en bevat naast nieuwe units 18 nieuwe missies en een nieuwe multiplayer mode. Check alle info hier.
The game will ship with 18 new missions and a bevy of cool new playable units, including an artillery piece called a Juggernaut – a walking, three-gun piece that is the GDI counter to NOD artillery -- and a multiple bombing thing called the Cyborg Reaper. Here’s the lowdown:
- Mobile EMP: A GDI vehicle that will disable your opponents’ stuff, even forcing underground units to surface. This baby winds up a big electrical charge, and then sends out an awesome looking shockwave that wreaks havoc and mayhem.
- Cyborg Reaper: Though we didn’t get to see this in action, Stojsavljevic’s description had us excited. Only to be found in multiplayer, this puppy fires two missiles, which then split into multiple bomblets that rain bad news on your attackers.
- Limpet Drone: This can be used by both sides, and is a sneaky little monkey. You hide it underground and wait for someone (hopefully not you) to drive over it. Once someone does, it slows the unit down to a crawl. Get to a mobile repair vehicle or a repair pad to get rid of it. While it’s attached to your opponent, it will also let you see exactly where he (and his buddies) are. Very nice.
- Mobile War Factory: Just like Americans, we’re always looking to do something on the run. The mobile war factory will be available to both sides and will give you the ability to crank out units anywhere on the map with one caveat – you won’t be able to build at your original base while it’s deployed.
- Mobile Stealth Generator: Keep your boys real quiet-like, and you’re enemy will never know what hit them. It just can’t keep things cloaked while it’s on the move. For both sides.
- Juggernaut: A three-barreled artillery for GDI that walks around, then plants a third leg when it’s ready to fire. More of a saturation weapon than a gun with pinpoint accuracy, but we’re willing to bet you won’t let that stop you from using it.
- Jumpjets: No, these aren’t new, but the team is giving them a nifty new ability. When they fly over cloaked structures or units, the hidden enemies will be revealed. Take that, Mr. Hide-y Hide-skins.
