Command & Conquer cancelled, Victory Games closed
"This does mean that the Victory Games team will be disbanded. Wherever possible, we are working to help these talented people find other opportunities with EA."
The cancellation post says the multiplayer approach to Command & Conquer was its downfall.
"Your feedback from the alpha trial is clear: We are not making the game you want to play," the post reads. "That is why, after much difficult deliberation, we have decided to cease production of this version of the game. Although we deeply respect the great work done by our talented team, ultimately it's about getting you the game you expect and deserve."
Victory and EA will refund all money spent in the alpha, expected to be handled over the next 10 days. EA say it is looking at ways to "get the game back on track." The blog post, attributed to Victory Studios, was not approved by the development team, Command & Conquer's Marketing Manager says on Twitter.

FrenzyRG Never really heard of this game so im not bothered
You really missed out.
It was one of the underrated games out there that now many won't ever have the chance to play.

That is honestly sad. I'm surprised since it is under control by EA and EA is making plenty of money to fund it via BF4 sales.

prumpaKatsumiAmp- Command & Conquer was a great game. It's sad to see it end.
Everything must end eventually i guess. I had no idea that Victory Games made C&C though
This multiplayer version of C&C was the only game victory games was going to make, but they failed. Westwood studios made the rest.
I see, that explains a lot.
