Yes, I just bought it today on Steam. I haven't installed it yet, since my laptop can't run it and my desktop isn't working. However, once I get my new case and rebuild my computer, I will install it.

Shouldn't this be front page material? In fact, I haven't seen a front page update since last year!

Alright, cool. I got myself UT3 :V Now I just need to wait for my new computer case to get here so I can install it

I've never used Steam before. If I purchase this now, can I install it on another computer later? (Even if I don't install it on this computer?)

Yea. Battles aren't always "fair." The only thing that needs to stay constant is the balance of each unit. The effectiveness of a team on specific maps should be determined by that map. It's one of the things that makes the game fun. Play with the terrain in mind and use it in your strategy. Don't alter stuff because you didn't win.

If you start to lose, that doesn't mean you should definitively lose! There should always be a chance at come back. It should just be harder and harder for each of your structures lost.

It's a good idea, but not worth it, imo. The screen is only up for 10 seconds.. And even more over, it would take up too much room. What if there are a lot of people in the game? The video playing would block the people on the scoreboard. Not only that, but how would the game know what events were worth replaying? How would it get the recordings? And how would it know what angle to record from? Like I said, it's a unique idea, but it wouldn't work very well. However, there should be a chat box. Also, the next map should load WHILE the scores are being displayed. That way people can look at the scores as long as they like, even after the map loads. When they finish looking at the scores, they would click a button that says "Join game" and then they would spawn in.

I liked Glacier, it was just too laggy. Every time a tank fired anywhere on the map, my FPS would drop to 5 then go back up.

Vehicle wrecks shouldn't be able to be repaired into full vehicles.

In Renegade, when you get shot down by a Ramjet, you are usually taken out at the last second before you disappear behind cover. Those extra 2 seconds are way more than enough time for you to escape.

QUOTE (Demigan @ Feb 28 2009, 11:26 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, he is right. This mod is designed to be Renegade at it's prime, just on a new level. Not a rebalanced version. As far as I know: They aren't overhauling the grenade launcher, just giving it another useful way to use it with secondary fire. Same goes for the Tib auto rifle. The homing for the rockets is not a drastic overhaul. And I've never heard them once mention they would be making the chainguns on the transport chopper usable. And I hope it stays that way. That is something that shouldn't be done. That vehicle isn't meant to be a base rushing vehicle. Just something to transport troops to and from a certain position quickly. Like infantry to the top of the mesa on walls, or infantry to the bridge on city. In that, it is a useful vehicle. When it comes to base assaults, then it is a flying coffin. Also, I haven't heard anything about snipers doing "less damage" to light armor vehicles. And again, I hope it stays that way. The only change I heard about a sniper is that the Ramjet is getting an added 2 seconds onto its reloading time. QUOTE (epicelite @ Mar 1 2009, 02:43 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lol... that means they are serving their purpose! The enemy is SUPPOSED to halt you from aiding your team. That's the point of the game and their main battle objective!

Yea. If there was one game where Nod had the wrong motivation and tone, it would have to be Tiberian Dawn (C&C1). In TD, Nod is nothing but a bunch of terrorists. In TS and TW, they have an actual purpose and meaning. And in both games it is portrayed excellently.

Nice job! Congrats!

You can't simply discount the only viable and extensive reason why none of these things should be changed. And why do you seem to have it in your head that this is a new game? This is not a new game, what it is is a carbon copy of Renegade. When you make a carbon copy of a game, you use, yes, a carbon copy. Admittedly, the sniper damage against aircraft was most likely a bug that was never officially fixed... but that doesn't mean that this team should go and fix it. The point of this similar to it. Renegade has been around for 7 years now, still alive and strong. This mod is like a memorial to that. Taking Renegade and modernizing it's engine, physics and graphics. Once you start changing the balance and making new weapons, making new units, you just start to deteriorate and disgrace the game that this mod is trying to imitate. Don't get my point wrong. No one is "fearing" change. It's just not wanted. Why would you settle to change something when you already know what you want?

I like the idea of wrecks staying there after the vehicle is destroyed, blocking the way. Even if it is only for a few seconds. It would mean dynamic gameplay and make players have to think that much more about their game plan. They would consider rush formations rather than the group and go deal they already do. At the very least, make it a server side option. Also, an idea for on of the achievements: LAG!: 10 deaths in a row without making any kills.

Why you got to post this stuff and make me want a game that I just got over wanting because it got canceled? You are evil. EVIL!

QUOTE (maty @ Feb 23 2009, 12:13 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've never played either. Both of the games looked kind of dumb to me. That's an opinion after seeing what it looks like and watching other people play. When I bought my Xbox off a friend, he gave me 4 or 5 games. One of which was Quake 4. I sold it.

The only time the beach is fun is if you go there late at night when there is no one else there but you and some friends. Maybe start a bond fire or shoot off some fireworks..

Seriously, if I could pick one place that I hate the most, it would be the beach. I don't see the fun of wasting gas going to a place where: 1. The sun makes target practice out of you and you end up feeling it for a week after you leave. 2. Ugly, fat, misshapen, loud people run around in tiny, skin tight and reveling cloths. 3. Sand everywhere that kicks up at the slightest touch and flies in the wind into the face of who ever you walk past. 4. The stench of sunscreen is everywhere and is so strong it makes you want to gag. Sure it's fun to hang out with friends, sit out in the sun and basically have a good time, but at a place as horrible as the beach? No way.

This gives me 4 days to get a new case and assemble a new computer.. Oh well, I hope you guys have fun.

I have a wireless Microsoft mouse and keyboard. I don't know their model number or specific name. They are comfortable and efficient. I've owned them for almost 2 years and I don't remember ever changing the battery on the keyboard. I have, however, needed to change my mouse battery once or twice. That isn't a bad deal though when you think about it. The only bad thing that my mouse has ever done was die in the middle of a C&C 3 match that I would have won. But that's about the extent of it's suckyness. The keyboard is cool because it has media controls on it and I am able to move it a fairly large distance away from my computer and still have it in range. So I can play music or watch movies from a comfortable location and still be able to control it all with the keyboard. I'm not a fan of all those overly priced fancy programmable mice with a bunch of useless features that I wont ever use. All a mouse needs to do control a little arrow on the screen and have a comfortable grip. If it can scroll web pages, that's a plus.

QUOTE (epicelite @ Feb 20 2009, 11:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've never played TF2, but if there is something that is physically possible to do in game and they acknowledge that fact by listing it as an achievement, then it obviously isn't a bug. Most likely it is just a widely spread dislike for some feature or in game ability.
