Game Tracker DeveloperWestwood Studios PublisherElectronic Arts PlatformsWindows Release Date (US) (DE) Current Version 2.03 What is Firestorm? Firestorm is the official expansion pack for Tiberian Sun, released in March 2000. It follows the events that occur right after the Second Tiberium War, with GDI command claimed by the Southern Cross base after an ion storm cut the link to the Philadelphia station, and Nod licking its wounds and trying to reactivate their AI CABAL, knowing not what secrets it holds. Firestorm is the first C&C game that has both of its campaigns (9 missions each, no side-missions this time) part of the canon, and occur simultaneously.

New units and buildings for both sides have been introduced, as well as modifications to existing ones. New Tiberium life forms known as Floaters have been added, as well as new skirmish/multiplayer maps and the World Domination Tour multiplayer mode, which was only available on the old Westwood Online server, which had players fight for a specific area on the map in GDI and Nod teams, and after a while, the map would reset.

Firestorm changes the Tiberian Sun executable in such a way that it allows players to switch back and forth between the expansion and the base game. Video Trailer. Opisanie pacyuka v noch pered rozhdestvom.

Firestorm is the official expansion pack for Tiberian Sun, released in March 2000. It follows the events that occur right after the Second Tiberium War, with GDI command claimed by the Southern Cross base after an ion storm cut the link to the Philadelphia station, and Nod licking its wounds and trying to reactivate their AI.

With new units, artwork, video cut scenes and multiplayer game mode, Firestorm is a solid add-on that will certainly appeal to fans of Tiberian Sun. Like every game in the Command & Conquer series, Firestorm lets you play as either the Global Defence Initiative (GDI) or the Brotherhood of NOD. Each side gets nine new missions to undertake, with both sides struggling to tie up loose ends left over from the Tiberian Sun game. While there aren't very many new missions in this expansion pack, fans of the series will appreciate Firestorm's solid mission design and variety of new units.

GDI players get to build and command mobile EMP cannons, long-range Juggernaut artillery units and the mighty mobile war factory, which allows you to build military units at just about any location on the battlefield. NOD players get a mobile stealth generator, a diabolical cyborg unit called the Reaper, and their own version of the mobile war factory, dubbed The Fist of NOD. In addition, many of the original Tiberian Sun units have been upgraded or enhanced in Firestorm. Another cool feature is the new World Domination multiplayer mode. In World Domination, literally thousands of players can take part in a tournament between GDI and NOD, as each side tries to take over the entire world. With the world map divided up into many small regions, players attempt to help their side by winning one region at a time.

Once one side has control of the entire globe, the game resets. Despite the hype surrounding its development and release, Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun did little to revolutionise the real-time strategy genre. It did, however, provide more of the classic RTS game play that made the original Command & Conquer and its Red Alert prequel so popular.

The same holds true for Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun: Firestorm. Ryan Pros: More real-time strategy in the C&C universe New units for both GDI and NOD forces Great new multiplayer mode: World Domination Cons: Only nine new missions per side More real-time strategy in the C&C universe.
