Interestingly, quite a few of the devs for this game are also devs from Westwood Studios. The lead combat designer, for example, worked on red alert 2, 3, C&C 3, generals, and zero hour. To me the fact that EA put some of the original westwood devs on this means they’re at least making a good faith attempt.
