I played the mod when it was first released in September 2009 and though I had a lot of fun exploring all the maps and buying the chars and vehicles, I really wanted to play the full complete game. I have it uninstalled ATM. And while the latest update has many things in-game, I will play Ren X only after they fully complete the game in standalone. UT3 is a silly frag type game...I don't want to run around in a highly graphical environment getting kills (gets boring after a while). And I don't want to install this game to play Ren X. Meanwhile my copy of UT3 (with Box & manual) in brand new condition along with full color Strategy Guide is available for sale for $15.

looking good so far...when you make the aircrafts yourselves, I would suggest you place the camera position somewhat near the middle of the tailboom if possible. That way the whole aircraft is not in your face blocking a good 40% of the screen and affecting ground visibility.

Sad to see the team go but this is not the end of C&C. They will return to making an FPS. I am positive. The rich storyline gives them the luxury of choosing any plot in the huge universe of C&C to capitalize on at the time of their choosing.

The rest of the world is quickly catching up. Russians put the first satellite into space, Americans landed first on the moon. Does't mean the other less developed won't follow suit. They will eventually catch up. Nobody imagined at the time of the Apollo moon landings that one day China would launch its own manned rocket into space and nobody imagined that India would ever be able to send moon orbiters to collect data. The big corporations have always wanted to break down every trade barrier possible including sovereign nations trade laws that might affect them negatively from operating there. And the most of their work over the past 40-50 years have been a tremdous success. Look at the world today...the concept of individual countries (depite numerous wars) is being slowly eroded as globalism drives change. A top advisor in the Cilnton administration in the US told once that we won't be living in "countries" in the future. Corporations are defining the restructure of society and driving innovation. Also a global presence enables them to get access to previously hidden markets and help minimize costs. Imagine the trillions of dollars companies like IBM, Microsoft, Intel, Dell...etc etc have saved for themselves by moving vital operations to Asia. They get cheaper labor and don't have to bother with employee benefits while at the same time giving the same efficent service.

Funny thing is the same people who say this don't complain about the absurd Cold War-era stereotypes put on Russian units in many previous C&C games. Take RA2 for example; Russian units all suffer from American sterotyping. The Russian conscript unit can be seen stretching and yawning (like as if that's so true!). But then look at how much respect Communist China seemed to get in Generals! See anything ridiculous here? Stalin killed millions of innocent Russian people and Russia was an enemy of America = Russsian units in C&C have negative American stereotyping all over them. Mao killed millions of innocent Chinese people but China never was an enemy of America = Chinese units gets glorified in Generals. Absurd. It's hypocrisy and bigotry of the highest degree. But in the end it's all a game made by westerners and they are going to inject their own sense of racial/cultural stereotypes humor into it. I think we should just leave it at that because if Russians or Arabs made C&C, let's admit it, it ain't gonna be so pro-western. It's not even worth to take sides in this issue of alleged racial themes.
