    Do you want to change D-6's original style?

    in Renegade X

    Posted

    Seriously, stop complaining if something looks slightly different. We dont care about the complaints we get from people whom want everything to be exactly the same (some even want us to remake the glitches). If you want it to be exactly the same, then go play Renegade. We've stated a million times that we're not making everything exactly 100% the same. We have an opportunity to make Renegade bigger and better then ever in every way imaginable, and we're not going to let this opportunity slip by making it 100% the same. So stop complaining about such things, because we're not going to bother with them.

    We had a discussion about the D-6 colorscheme and decided to make it more believable. That's why it is not an orange. It is a very dark orange.

    # Average Customer Review: 1.2 out of 5 stars See all reviews (117 customer reviews)[/b]

    The customer reviews on amazon are really not representative because there are many many hate reviews of angry fans who give this game just 1 star and no real rating. It was the same with Supreme Commander 2 or Assassins Creed 2 for example. Especially the last one: it's a great game but it got a lot 1 star reviews because of Ubissofts new DRM system (which is the biggest cr** indeed). I would only remove one of my stars because of things like DRM and so on*.

    Anyway in case of C&C 4 the 1.5 stars could fit in my opinion (in due consideration of*). Even if you treat this just as a game or random RTS and not as C&C.

    C&C is no strategy anymore in my eyes. It's tactic because it's always short-term planning with the question "How can I get in control of the node in the next 60 seconds?".

    If you don't know the difference between tactic and strategy read Carl Clausewitz "Principles of War".

    Some ppl call C&C 4 Action-Strategy but this word is just a cynical piece of satire with no sense.

    Will you be buying C&C4?

    I haven't bought Kanes Wrath, I haven't bought RA3 and I will not buy C&C 4.In addition I wish I could undo my purchase of C&C 3.

    I really played the beta for ~two weeks and I would say it is something for in between during LANs. Oooops I forgot it has no LAN mode and some kind of crappy DRM. Too bad. No I don't like it. I don't like the cartoon* unit design, I don't like the casual action RTS style and it has no long term motivation (I got bored after two weeks playing it). I don't know the story or the ending of C&C 4 but in my eyes it develops in the wrong direction and this started already with C&C 3. So I'm not even interested in the ending. Furthermore the copy protection would be a sole reason for me not to buy C&C 4.

    Anyway I have no money for full price games. Old low price games only.

    Could we just call it "4" and skip the "C&C" in front of the number when we talk about it here? This is no C&C.

    (*dont understand me wrong I have nothing against cartoon style games like XIII with cell shading or cartoon proportions like in RA2/3 but not for the Tiberium universe)

    The mod is looking nice and I don't care about old graphics. I played it online a few times but I really don't like the gameplay, balance and especially the big maps. Most players I asked here in germany think the same.

    An APB with more Renegade styled maps would be much better (for me) but a as long as there are enough others players who like this mod... ;)

    The Apparent End of C&C

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    Don't understand me wrong. I have nothing against new concepts and why not a modern warfare C&C or other new C&C Universes? I thought about my own factions for a C&C game and drew concepts for buildings and stuff. My idea e.g. was a complete Sci-Fi C&C but I stopped thinking about that because I heard of Total Annihilation/Supreme Commander and especially SupCom fulfilled my dreams.

    I did not like generals for being "un-C&Cish". I don't like Generals because gameplay & story aspects. The waypath AI and enemy-AI was horrible. The singleplayer campaign was no campaign - it was senseless row of boring missions without any story or characters. The only good things were the three remarkable factions, the great music which really fits to their factions and units (and how you can combine them). Act of War made everything better than Generals in the eyes of a singleplayer.

    CnC TW was more a classic CnC but it at least a (more or the less good) story in comparison to generals but it wasn't very well thought out with its steps foward and backward in the tiberian history. CnC TW had some kind of atmosphere but the music was boring. Waypath-AI and enemy AI was okay. Anyway it became boring for me very quickly.

    AR3? Never tried - because of the DRM cr** but it had a building grid. C&C 4? No buildings, DRM/online-force - No way! I like building/destroying bases.

    I don't care if the CnC team gets kicked or not or if C&C continues or not. I never played ANY RTS online. For me, C&C started becoming unappealing with C&C Generals because of the horrible SP-Campaigns which had nearly no atmosphere or story.

    All my interest is focused on C&C Renegade and Renegade X.

    If anything they will probably care even less now because they are losing their jobs and instead will just say fuck it I dont give a damn about this game if it means me being fired.[/b]

    Totally agreed. This starts with the quality of the models (except the buildings which are missing completly).

    Linux can be nice and minimalistic but this nothing for me - too much via console. Another point is that I have lots of small little programms which I use (some selfmade) and they are for Windows only ^^ Knowing the ins and outs of one OS and programming for one OS is enough.

    FPS limit 90

    in Renegade X

    Posted

    I like FPS games - they are my favourite genre and I think I nearly played every important game including the old classics/must-play games like Quake III, UT99, HLDM and so on. That's why I also like fast deathmatches from time to time but I'm not a pro.

    I tested the difference between 60 FPS and 300 FPS in normal Quake III Arena game. Personally there is no difference for me.

    A reason for this could be my TFT screen but I can't test it with CRT anymore (a good Samsung trashed months ago).

    Change the Kill shound

    There is a simple answer to the topic's question:

    No you can't change it. (maybe you can but then you can't play online anymore)

    Please read the FAQ!

    QUOTE
    Q: Will we be able to customize skins/sounds/boink/models with Renegade-X the way we could in C&C Renegade?

    A: No. This is for multiple reasons. The main reason is just the way data is handled in UT3 with materials, code, and packages. In order to change a skin you would essentially have to change the version of the mod, which means you wouldn't be able to play on servers, and even then the server would download the original "correct" files and use those anyways. A secondary reason is to prevent "advantage skin" exploits/cheats.[/b]

    A NEEDED feature

    in Renegade X

    Posted

    No-base-attack/No-Rush time for Renegade/Renegade X? No way!

    Some years ago I played Renegade online very often one of my friends. At the beginning of every round I played the soldier and he was an engineer. When the current map had no basedefenses we always rushed the enemy base and we mostly destroyed a building. Several times we also managed to destroy the rest of the base in the following five or ten minutes. A time limit would prevent such actions (or in general rushing).

    I'm against implementing such a feature at all because I don't want X public servers later with such a time limit.

    SUGGESTION: "Suggested starting credits."

    in Renegade X

    Posted

    Nobody ever needed starting credits or higher ref-credit-rates. I know it is common on marathon-servers but marathon servers suck!

    Too much camping, to high playercounts and too less teamplay as a reason of that two facts before.

    I think there should be no option to deactivate the timelimit and a maximum for timelimits to prevent this BIG marathon shit! It destroys Renegade.
