Adam Isgreen hat einige interessante Sachen über den Verlauf der Entwicklung von C&C 3 geschrieben. Es gab 4 Versionen von C&C 3 (WWv1, WWv2, EAv1, EAv2). Die Entwicklung von Version 1 wurde direkt nach Feuersturm begonnen und nach einiger Zeit gestoppt, um an Continuum (C&C MMO) zu arbeiten. Die Entwicklung von Version 2 wurde kurz vor der Schließung von Westwood begonnen und wurde später bei EA als EAv1 fortgesetzt. Allerdings wurde auch diese Version gestoppt, um an anderen Projekten zu arbeiten (HdR, MoH, Golden Eye). Schließlich gibt es noch EAv2, was wahrscheinlich das heutige Tiberium Wars darstellt.

The C&C3 story changed with each new location / producer and time period it went through. There are at least 4 versions of C&C3 (WWv1, WWv2, EAv1, EAv2) that had different factions and story concepts. I worked on the WWv1/2 and EAv1 versions. EAv2 is pretty much TW. The WWv2 story was the one that the EAv1 was going to use as well (or a modified version thereof).

WWv1 started right after Firestorm shipped, and we voluntarily stopped it to work on Continuum. All existing design docs were given to WWP for ideas for RA2 / Yuris. Some of the units in Yuris are modified versions of that first C&C3 design.

WWv2 started towards the end of WWLV's existence, right before the consolidation. It continued on for a bit at EALA before sputtering because all of us working on it were put onto ZH.

EAv1 was the real official restart of C&C3, which we worked on in both EALA locations (BelAir and Playa). EAv1 was stopped to help LotR, Goldeneye and MoH. It was never really picked back up.

After that version, I'm going to assume that the next one was TW, since I was gone at that point.

Es stehen auch noch ein paar andere Sachen drin, wie z.B. der Zusammenhang von RA2 und dem Tiberium-Universum (Westwoods Version, ob EA es genauso macht, ist unbekannt), Renegade 2 und der Schließung von Westwood.

edit:

Hier ist noch etwas zu den Namen/Arbeitstitel von den Spielen, die bei Westwood in Entwicklung waren:

Let's see if I can clear some of this up:

Incursion was a working title for one iteration of C&C 3 -- what people thought was called Twilight.

We never (ok, except one time on accident) ever called C&C3 "Tiberium Twilight", everyone just assumed it would be named that because of Dawn / Sun for the first two, and it was initially meant as a trilogy of games about the Tiberium war, Kane, etc. I can't blame people for making the logic jump there though, it makes a lot of sense.

Continuum was the MMO working title. I still like that one a lot.

Renegade 2 was called Battlegrounds or something like that internally... can't remember specifically.
