Pros
Pro Long, entertaining campaign
There are quite a lot of missions in the game that have a varying degree of particular objectives, ranging from stealth to base destruction. The campaign also features secondary missions that allow for even more gameplay, but are not required to complete the game.
Pro No limits
You can keep building your army as long as you have enough resources.
Pro Exceptional management
The resources may appear as if they are a lot of them out there but truth to be told you will still be fighting for Tiberium most of the time ,Base Building is satisfying and upgrades really give you that slight edge over the enemy but as Time goes on resources run out (they regenerate but very slowly) and as upgrades go by in the end it's just down to the players strategies,
P.S. every unit has some sort of a counter like in any RTS so Building large armies like the Guy in the said is not very effective because the Counter unit can crush them instantly
Pro Best-in-class FMV breathes life into the campaign
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars features the best FMV to date in any Command & Conquer title, featuring an all-star cast that fill the ranks of both GDI and NOD. The beautifully shot and wonderfully hammy-acted videos ensure that the player knows both that there is a grimy darkness to the campaign and that the it does not take itself too seriously; avoiding the over-the-top nature of the Red Alert series, which is its staple. The video pop-ups during each mission help convey a sense of urgency to the player when necessary, and a feeling of reward when a mission is successful.
Pro Gentle learning curve
The progress of the game is structured in a way that allows the player to get accustomed to the game gradually. The AI in the game is also not rushed so the player has time to thing of how they want to maneuver, so is a bit more relaxed than other RTS games. Overall this makes for an experience that could be seen as casual in some respects.
Pro Gives players the ability to customize their generals and heroes
TW:W gives players the chance to customize the abilities of their chosen legendary lord, generals and even heroes through a detailed skill tree. Skills vary from individual character skills usable in battles (such as spells) to passive skills which influence army movement in the campaign map.
Pro Great setting
Being based around the Warhammer tabletop fantasy world allows for an in depth game with tons lore behind it. Fighting off vampires and zombies are just some of the things to be found in the game.
Pro Tons of replayability
Thanks to the different factions available in the game, the player has a lot of choice as to how they would like to play, which gives a lot of replayability. There are five different campaigns available (four in the game and one as DLC) that each has its own faction to control and set story, which will take quite a bit of time to each be experience to their complete endings.
Cons
Con Pathfinding issues
The AI in the game has a few pathfinding issues where troops do not go where intended by the player. This can be frustrating in the heat of a battle.
Con Poor multiplayer design makes for one-note battles
Due to the way multiplayer was designed, there is no incentive to build up ones technologies. As even the lowest tier units, when built in large enough number, can decimate entire bases, each game becomes a rush of low level troops facing off against one another. This is due in part of the quick training times of infantry units, coupled with their low cost, meaning the only way to counter an infantry rush is to build units of your own.
Con Only four factions are available in the base game
There are only four factions are available without DLCs (The Empire, Vampire Counts, Greenskins and Dwarfes). Other playable races and factions are currently being released periodically as DLCs.
Con Maps can feel constrained
Due to the compartmentalizing of factions and which land they can take over means that the games maps can feel smaller than they appear since only certain sections can be played on.
