Mammoth's Tiberian Sun Page None of the info below is 100% true. Many other TS pages have something they call facts and rumors , I won't do that kind of separation cause there is no way you can know what will be in the finished game. If you want to know, you will have to wait for the full game.

However, here is a list of things that have been rumored to be in the final game:


Map size:
The maps will be about 2 times larger than in Red Alert.

Weather conditions:
There will be different wheather conditions in TS. Probably wind, snow and rain. I don't know how this will affect gameplay. Rain will probably make it more difficult to drive cause the map gets muddy. Snow in large amounts results in the same problems as rain. Wind slows down or speeds up units affected by the direction.

Day - night:
Some missions will be played at night, but most will be in daylight. At night the map will be darker, maybe you can turn on some sort of night vision. There are rumors of more dynamic day - night conditions such as, if you play the game at night the game will be at night, but I don't really believe that.

Disasters:
It will be disasters in the games such as, if you shoot at snow on a mountain it causes an avalanche. It will probably be Earthquakes, Volcanos and Tornados too.

User interface:
You will be able to zoom the map. This is because Westwood is using the voxel technology , as in Blade Runner. Maybe you can also rotate the map, at least view it from 4 directions as in Sim City.

Computer AI:
The computer will be a lot better in TS. It will probably still be more fun to play a friend than to play the computer.

Sound:
The sound effects will be a lot better, not only using higher sampling quality. The sound of minigunner shooting something will vary depending on how far away the target is.
