"Mideast Crisis 2"(MeC2) is a total conversion for "Command and Conquer 3: Tiberian Wars" by Isotx as the sequel to its "Command and Conquer: Generals - Zero Hour" conversion "Mideast Crisis". Isotx teamed up with Derelict Studios, in which the staff for MeC2 is largely composed out of core team members from past SAGE engine mods such as; Blitzkrieg 2, Halogen (now known as Asylum), Mideast Crisis and Rise of Rome.

MeC2 features 3 distinct factions; Israel Defense Forces, the Guardians of Islam and the UN Peacekeepers which you can play in both multiplayer and singleplayer spanning maps (and missions) from Beirut to Jerusalem.

MeC2's gameplay focuses on occupation warfare within cities using 3 types of resources; money (from occupation taxes), fuel (from oil derricks and gas stations) and special ammunition (from ammo crates). We're also bringing back secondary resources in the form of; embedded reporters, settlements and hacking.

Stay tuned in the upcoming weeks and months, we have a great deal of surprises and innovations to show.

A mix of concept art and screenshots from MIDEAST CRISIS 2.

Concept Art
Concept artist Michal produced the Command Center, whilst smurfbizkit was responsible for the flame thrower turret.

Screenshots

We have here a Guardians of Islam base. Buildings include outposts, an Internet Center, a Guardian Command and Flamethrower Turrets.

 

GOI Command

 

The highway screenshot shows part of the recently completed "Highway of Death" 4-player map (created by map artist Pivac). The notable thing is that, throughout the map, the highway will always be populated by cars moving in each direction. Even if you keep destroying them, they'll keep spawning. This means that GOI players will have added incentive to build Martyrs on this map - since they have an unlimited amount of cars to hijack.

Workflow: From Lego concept to finished unit

 

Lego to In-Game

 

This is the workflow spyVspy used to create the SLING unit. The really cool thing was that instead of drawing a few pages of concepts on paper of the unit, he built lego concepts instead.

The GUI
Finally we have an early mock-up of part of the MEC2 GUI. This is a composite image, not an in-game screenshot.

 

MEC2 GUI

We are still in need of some voice actors for Mideast Crisis 2, particularly for the GOI. Check out this forum thread for more information.

You can also check the Status of the Mod, read some of the Frequently Asked Questions (and answers), and guess at some of the End-Tree Units with only the name as a clue.

Not all, some are sitting on the sidelines during the war...but most; Syria, Egypt and Iran are the main players in the GOI.

Any time spent on making updates, is time taken from actually working on the mod. :P

No, we won't release before Kane's Wrath. However...we are getting much closer to release, and will have closed beta testing soon.

Good thing you aren't the mod leader then huh? AxelofSweden. ;)

The C&C3 engine is nearly perfect for what we want to do, and believe it or not...it is far better than any of the other engine options available to us.
