  1. There can be done a lot of adjustments. While BlackDawn was a single player demo, it was also 2 years ago. Not everything is working exactly the same as back in the days of BlackDawn. The devs have done a lot to improve the game.
  2. *What is the status on the character replacing the tib Sydney? What type of gun will this character wield? Sydney replacement: McFarland It has a gun that can fire both grenades as shotgun-bullets. *How exactly does this dodge/roll ability work? Can you simply do it whenever you want? Roll ability in BlackDawn did work by pressing double-W /A /D. However as tester, I don't know or they will be use rolling/dodging in the final build. In the beta I remember that bunny hopping allowed you to move faster than just walking. Will this still be the case? You can already run, jumping will cost you energy. *Is sprinting unlimited? How exactly does that work? You will have an energy "bar", each second you run or each jump will cost some energy. Energy will be slowly be refilled over time. Any new vehicles at all? No new vehicles so far, however they work a bit different/better as the original Renegade.
  3. If someone suddenly does buy a licence for the dev kit, and it somehow gets uploaded to the FTP as a gift. Then it might not be considered as donation. But making a game feeling native on a console require a lot of work and will limit the possibilities. Since you have to make sure every feature does work on both engines. Most games fail in making good ports that keep the game fun.
  4. Kickstarter: Funding Canceled: Funding for this project was canceled by the project creator about 4 hours ago.
  5. Having no level system helps fighting the war versus the hackers. What is the point of cheating when it does not make you better. And additionally it is up to the moderators to keep their servers clean. Once they are banned they wil have a hard time to get back ingame.
  6. Base rebuiling is done in another game, but only a sudden death can really end the game then. A sudden death is not a really renegade or cnc style...
  7. This is how it did work in renegade as well.
  8. Well gameplay it had, also 90% of the people are just walking the marathon with SBH and ramjets, but for those who can play else, it had a great gameplay.
  9. I would dislike this way of using the CY. More something for a sudden death game mode. Still I am just one opinion .
  10. Destroying an enemy structure should give them a disadvantage, not take away all their hope. Most structures get damaged a lot over a time. Without a repair-weapon the game would be over in no time. In the currently, there is not a CY in the game and it probably will depend on the mapmaker or there ever will be one in a map. But in Renegade they did repair structures automatically, and that was somehow just perfect enough. Even in C&C RTS games you can still repair when your CY is destroyed, and additional the way the maps of renegade are designed, there is not really place to hit and run. So your tank will not last for long without engineer. Currently, there are also server for Renegade (original) that allow building recovery. However the Ren-engine was limited with these kind of stuff.

  12. You could support the game by: 1) Playing the game to keep it populated 2) Donate to official/unofficial servers to keep their server running (for example multiplayerforums.com, so they can provide Renegade-X with a game-server or even more) 3) Rent your own server(box) so people have more servers to play in. 4) Tell others 5) Map-making 6) Be a great moderator on one of the available servers. Donations for "Gamedevelopment" are not allowed however EA has nothing to say about donations for renting a server-box. But Totem Arts is only developing the game so it will probably not legally possible to donate them somehow for their service.
  13. The development is probably not over once released. Anyway, the community is big enough to keep it up-to-date and running, even when the current team is not able to offer support anymore (however they are some damm good developers so we better hope it will never happen). You can support this project by keep playing it. If you feel needed to spend money on the game, then you always could consider to start your own Ren-x server.
  14. Renegade = BIONK A solution to get rid of this boink can be found in the link below: https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl= ... %20shooter Another solution is to turn the sound down . Note: Just my opinion, still a lot of customization can be done in the option menu, so there might be a button somewhere that will help you with your issue.
  15. First regular question to a newbie: Have you ever played C&C Renegade online? The answer probably speaks for it, so here we explain again: In C&C Renegade you play one soldier in a Base to Base fight. Most games are just all about shooting, in Renegade you can choose to play it also this way but the most successful way to play renegade is by working together. Your main objective is to destroy the enemy base, every structure you destroy, will give the enemy an disadvantage. If the timer of the map hits zero and there are still no bases destroyed, then the team with the highest score wins. Kill-hunting does not give a lot of credits. Attacking the enemy base does. So you still could get 30 kills and end up as worst player of the team. There are times you have to plan a rush of a specific kind of tanks, and sometimes you need to create distractions. The team with the greatest plans and team-play mostly wins. So it is not just another dumb shooter. It is about: Strategy, planning, map-knowledge, weakness-and-strength knowledge, skills, team-play, sacrifice, and yes some will play it as a regular shooter. There are situations where renegade could be a real mind game. Even while it is not a RTS. Probably one of the only FPS games around where your guns could be weaker as the mind.
  16. Probably STEAM and MODS. Banning steam-nicknames will be more effective as banning random names.
  17. A level-system might could be a serverside addon. But it would be bad to have one level by default on every server. In a good game, there should not be an advantage on characters and power between a Pro and a newbie. The only difference there can be is the difference of knowledge and skills. Only if you work without a level-system, you can keep the fight fair. A small weapon-upgrade will make it a bit harder to know what to expect, however think a bit smart and you still know it. Is your enemy rich, then they probably will have some advanced weapons, else they stick to the free ones. I think this is a good development since only having a PP+REF often cases rage-quiting. When there is nothing to buy except fake beacons, then there is no fun, having access to at least some small upgrades will give these hopeless losers some hope.
  18. I don't think the opinion of the players was the mainreason to shutdown the project. EA-Games hasn't cared about the C&C community ever. So why should they now? They still want to make games for the big public (that's why they made CNC4), these oldschool gamers like us do not sound interesting for them anyway. Lets be honest we have a community that always has been split up, a part of us does like Tiberium, another part does like red alert and another part does enjoy Generals a bit more. Unfortunately they could make the same and getting complaints about being not unique enough, or making something different and get complains about being to much non-CNC. After all these cancelled games they made for CNC, there is still not one great remake of some good titles like Renegade/Red alert/Tib sun/CNC1/Generals in 10 years time. While with this new engine and the Renegade style merged they could have gotten a great success. Also Generals should have worked, just 2/3 of the community did not like Generals and F2P and RTS hasn't been done that awesome since ever. The good news is that Renegade-X could give the cnc community a new home as being the main/most important and supported and updated game of CNC. Community will take CNC back to themself, it are the modders of CNC that made the best stuff anyway.
  19. Not sure how well this will fit, it will make infantry OP, so then infantry will be nerfed so they cant fight well. Mostly you are fighting from the front, since there is not always space for surprise attacks.
  20. -When you prefer rockets inside tunnels -(in the old days) Spot a healed mass by spotting an increased lagg -Trying to c4 an enemy infantry that does not move. But starts to move just a second before you can place the c4 on his head. (always happens to me)
  21. Bad dude, dont speak like your opinion is the opinion of the world... maybe... you are that one dude that is not made for this game .
  22. But can we do it with the free UDK...

    News?

    We are living in an pretty long week, since the next weekly youtube updates are still waiting for the next week. Just to be interested, is JAM still alive? He seems to have been changed from very active, to be very inactive part of the team. Just some useless updates that prove the project is still alive, could never be worse. Still we cant complain, they are doing this all without profit, or atleast without making big money with the project. This does not give uss the right to complain or have oppinions about the team. But advise is still allowed isnt it?
