I agree it does fade too fast, but I wonder how many messages will be filling the screen if 60 players are in game. You can also hit the ~ key to bring up the message console. Try a quieter server, found one with 7 players yesterday, to have more chance to talk. I personally like the kill message location. Kills are more of a status, chat has always been upper left corner since the beginning of online gaming.

I felt like a completely useless idiot yesterday. I haven't played the original in a couple of years, and while this has a similar feel, I was dying left and right. Sniping...forget it. Vehicles...blown up quickly. It will take time to get organized. We did run a nice APC rush early in the map...that felt similar, but with 63 players, there was no chance an engineer would reach the terminal to c4 anything. I also disabled the motion blur...that was giving me trouble aiming.

13.12 is out in catalyst...14.2 if you are feeling Beta.

1. They have advertised this as having fast paced gameplay. I think its spot on. Guess thus will be subjective. 2. Damage depends on location of hit. In the head, even pistol will kill in 2-3 hits. Learn to target the head. The game is supposed to be a new release, reminiscent of the original, not an exact clone. That said, they did a beautiful job.

I remember the original game had a horribly slow walk speed, so I don't even mind the usual movement speed in X.

6 MB/s as in 6 Megabytes a second, not megabits, is what I was seeing in the download speed. We have 1 GIG of inbound bandwidth here. Granted, firewall and web filtering affect the speed.

Just finished download....6MB/s is nice It is AMAZING. Anyone who has ever played Renegade will feel right at home. It's familiar, beautiful, audio is music to my hears, gameplay...outstanding. This is everything you could imagine an updated C&C would be. Even the little quirky things from the original...fixed. No stealing someone else's vehicles, they are locked for 30 seconds (I think it's 30) so the purchaser has time to get into it. How did you guys pull this off...for free?????? I feel guilty. To run at Ultra Quality, you're going to need a decent system. I'm running an i7 2600 @ 3.4 with 16GB RAM, ATI 6770 Graphics. I have to look at some more settings but I don't know the actual framerate I was getting. Totem, you are Gods.

I felt the original Ren was comfortably paced. You had time to think. UT3 CTF or DM, it's do or die.

UsEFuL-IdIoT for quite some time, but most recently TooLKikS. I still actively play. There are some hardcore fans out there who just wont let it die...thankfully. It would have fizzled years ago if it weren't for custom maps.
