Vehicles of destruction

We know what all C&C fans want - to be able to jump in an Orca and chew up alien troops on the ground. The screens don't show much, but there are a few with what looks like Orcas in the background, which is good. What we've been told by EA is that "players will control multiple infantry, armour, and air squads as the fight escalates. In Tiberium, Vega is the most powerful presence on the battlefield, and the squads are his most decisive weapon". So we're not sure if we'll actually get the opportunity to climb in to Orcas and Titans. Less exciting is the possibility that you'll only be able to control vehicles as you would a squad of troops, directing their movement and attacks from the battlefield. What is featured more prominently in the screenshots is these ED-209-like mechs, which we're not totally convinced by. Been done a thousand times before if you ask us.
