No that's lag. On laggy servers, your shots get delayed a bit so you have to aim more in front of your targets than you have to on other servers. The better ping, the less delay your shots have. That's why it's much easier to hit players on servers with better pings. It's almost impossible for me to win an infantry battle on the MP gaming server while in other servers I can survive much longer.

I disagree. The lag in Renegade X is much worse than the lag in Renegade. It might not alter how your character moves and warp your enemies around, but at least what I hit takes damage. People on Renegade X can't help but flock to the server with the highest ping... as such it's very hard for me to have a good experience when none of my shots damage what they hit.

Yea, it's better the way it is. Using the extra program you can set up camera angles and sweeps and a whole bunch of stuff that isn't possible just by recording what you've seen in game.

They are already working on it. But a working version is already implemented in the game. See this thread for details: http://www.renegade-x.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3394

If people don't do that now, then it wont be a problem if this is implemented. It's just really annoying when you go to toss your last C4 onto an MCT just to find that it stopped short and is hanging there in mid-air. When it goes off, it doesn't do any damage to the structure, and the structure doesn't get destroyed.

Why would someone intentionally place their C4 in a spot where it wouldn't be effective?

It's a good idea because it would help us to consciously avoid that annoying "floating C4" bug.

It was a squad based shooter. It's common knowledge. If it played like any game, it would be Star Wars: Republic Commando.

You could have just private messaged him...

What do you mean "it was Halo?" It looked and played nothing like Halo...

Photoshop nazi attack! I can see the effects of your clone stamping! Also, the Renegade X logo looks as if it was compressed a little bit.

It's 2:30 pm here on the East Coast.

It should be GDI infantry on the left and Nod on the right. How come it's just Nod infantry?

It would be cool if teams could vote on what building it is located in.

Just cause you will be doesn't mean "most people" will be too. I'm going to be all over the place on Christmas day.

A beta, maybe, but it's still rather funny.

But that isn't an excuse for it toppling Mammoth tanks.

It shouldn't crush, because that would alter the game balance too much. The mammoth should just be an unstoppable mobile wall. If a buggy runs up against it, it would be like driving into a wall. And the mammoth tank should have no trouble chugging along even if it has to plow through enemy tanks driving up against it.

I really hope you guys can smooth out the issue. As it stands right now... I would much rather invite a horde of Renecheaters over rather than miss every shot I make. It's basically impossible for me to fight infantry battles. It's a futile waste of time and money atm.

I keep running into issues with that kind of lag. Is there work being done to maybe polish it a bit? It's definitely worse than the lag that was present in the original Renegade. Especially since my ping in Renegade X is lower than it was in Renegade..

I actually feel like the infantry are very well balanced against vehicles. Especially the anti-armor infantry. Gunner is especially useful against vehicles. Much more than he is in the original Renegade, but not over powered enough to make it unbalanced. It fits right into the game and makes him more useful. Grenadiers are 'explosive' weapons, yes, but they cost 0 credits. You really shouldn't expect them to do a substantial amount of damage to an enemy tank. However, they are pretty effective against other infantry. You also mentioned something about the early game pace. I actually like the speed. It's not really supposed to go straight into action. It's like the calm before the storm. If you think about it that way, it's actually a bit too fast. The beginning game is the time were you quickly discuss tactics with your team and try to organize a force. I think speeding the game up during that time will do more harm than it helps. Also, there is one thing I want to add onto what you were saying. The shotgun is hard to read. However, despite that fact, it doesn't have enough power. In Renegade, if you got up to point blank range of an enemy (his back is turned or he is afk or something) and shoot him with a shotgun, it should kill him in one to two shots depending on the character. In Renegade X, t takes like 4 at point blank range to kill a free character and it doesn't feel like all the shots are hitting. It doesn't necessarily need visual feedback, more like an audio feedback.

The current build isn't the final game.. every build more and more bugs are fixed. So stop talking as if the bugs are here to stay...
