C&C4 - The Big Questions Answered on Tiberium Universe has thoughts on Command & Conquer 4 from Mike "BigMike" Glosecki, executive producer on the RTS sequel (not to mention role model/bad ass). He discuss the controversy over the game's move online, saying this was "so that we could better support the community with a live team much like MMOs." He also addresses concerns that Tiberium itself is being phased out of the C&C universe:

The last thing I wanted to talk about was Tiberium itself. I know a lot of you are wondering why you haven’t seen that much of it in the screenshots that we've released to date. Rest assured that Tiberium is in the world as it would really be hard to make a Tiberium universe game without everyone’s favorite green proton lattice. If you view our announcement trailer you can actually see how much Tiberium has devastated Manchester in 2062 by filling in the country side and even consuming many of the buildings in the city itself. The screens that we have released show some of the areas in the world that have been terra-formed through GDI's alliance with Kane (OMG!) which is why you don't see a lot of Tiberium in them. In our future screenshots, you will see some of the areas that are still being ravaged by Tiberium and have not been fully reclaimed.
