Mailbag![ Comment ] 13:44 PST | Sonic Alpha | Print News | Category: MailbagLast week I asked if multiplayer suddenly stopped working in a C&C; game, would you stop playing it? SuperNathanNuva responded with: -
Well, I do love the single player for it's story and stuff, but I mostly play online with others so yes, I would stop playing a lot of cnc games if they suddenly didn't have multiplayer.
"C&C;: The Movie; would you use the same actors from the games, or would you select a new cast entirely? Who would you choose, and why?"
As always your responses, comments, suggestions for future mailbag topics, and feedback should be sent to mailbag@planetcnc.gamespy.com, and the mailbag will return next weekend.

By running around the area and accessing power-up nodes she could learn new powers that were set in an ability hotbar at the screen's bottom. Her basic attack involved telekinetically lifting and damaging enemies, but she could also blast out novas of psychic energy, mind control nearby troops, and target, lift, and toss objects.
