The year is 2062 and humanity is at the brink of extinction. With only six years left until the mysterious crystalline structure Tiberium renders the earth entirely uninhabitable, the two opposing factions -- Global Defense Initiative (GDI) and the Brotherhood of Nod -- inevitably find themselves in desperation for the same cause: to stop Tiberium from extinguishing mankind.

A nasty catch to playing C&C4 is having to log into EA’s servers before launching the game, even for single-player. Considering that EA recently shut down servers for the less than two-year-old Mercenaries 2, I’m not enthusiastic about buying a product that depends on active servers to play. The multiplayer battles are good enough fun once you’ve ranked up, but a potentially short-lived service is a dagger dangling over our heads.
As a general rule, RTS games don't take kindly to complete renovation. If you're a developer with a good RTS, then it's best to iterate on that design and to evolve it slowly over time. RTS are games with very delicate balance, and if you don't hit the balance just right, then the entire experience goes down the tubes quickly.
Ultimately, Tiberian Twilight is merely a C&C game by association; not the most terrible of fates for an otherwise solid RTS game, but certainly a bittersweet one for the franchise faithful expecting more
