Why do these developers feel the need to change a working formula....

I'll keep this short. The game is just plain weird. To me, it's worth about $25 so I feel like I got robbed. Wait for the price drop even if you are a big fan because it will come down soon. EA decided to revamp the system by making movable bases and limit the sizes of your base and armada with the utilization of command points. It's a lot like Star Wars Battlegrounds, which is a fun game but it's not what C&C is supposed to be like. Then they make the map and HUD more annoying to interact with. The mini map is in the lower left as opposed to the upper right(like ALL the other games!) and IMO is difficult to read and cluttered. The overall look and feel of the game is just plain compared to C&C 3. In my honest opinion, I thought C&C 3 graphics were great and Red Alert 3 was a step down from that. This game is a step down from Red Alert 3 though. The game play isn't as fun either because you can't just focus on defenses and building an army. You have to be on the move with small strike forces at all times and, to me, that just makes the game not seem like C&C. I hope they take their time and make a quality game if they decide to do a Red Alert 4. This game just seemed too rushed... It's a shame to see the conclusion of the series be such a mediocre game...
