RE: New GAME - Bobingabout - 20.11.2006
actually, RP hasn't brocken any copyright, only EULA, but modding breaks that anyway.
using the name C&C for any purpose is breaking copyright, but then selling it, like we plan to, will likely put you with either a several million quid fine, or prison time or something.
opensun is about as close to "C&C" as you are going to get, and sounds like a Tiberium sun clone, much like openttd is a transport tycoon deluxe clone.
CMP's factions and destructivality, although are heavily based on C&C, are purposly not named anything to do with C&C for a couple of reasons.
1. copyright, and intent to sell.
2. its not C&C, its only based on it.
3. we want a game programmed to work how we want things to work, which is why we included the obvious "Contruct your own units" system in the specs, because we like to build things.
