Used to be able to do it on old ren a decade ago lol, it wa funny. People would get so pissed. I played on black cell, which had parachutes and it was hilarious killing them all before they landed

Lol, if credits are an issue for you, especially in renX, your doing it wrong.

Flying coffins...lulz. Still coffins. Always will be coffins.

Fuckin Christ. Even games like battlefield which are much more developed still have that. It's a perfectly fine strategy. Plus, your an idiot if a buggy can reach your med. and even worse if someone suicide rushing a single vehicle is detrimental to your team.

That's how black cell had it in old renegade. You as a player rank up. Veteran, elite, and legendary. Requiring 1200, 2000, and 4000 points respectively. Also had vet points which vary based on what you do. Ie: repair, kill units (each gives dif vet PTs), disarm beacons, kill buildings etc. I'd raise the points to like 3,6 and 9k points or something. The bonus varies per vehicle. While chem troopers might have 180 health and armor at legendary vs 150. Havocs had 312 health and 120 armor or something. Legendary vehs auto healed about as fast as mammys do. Light vehicles were given medium armor when legendary. (Artys armor acted like stanks, havocs were weaker). It was fun, gave players something to work for. It was my favorite server side mod on any server in renegade.

Nah it's not going backwards, it's just choosing different features of the game. RenX in itself is a huge step forwards. The game is absolutely beautiful and that's definitely it's best feature. I imagine the coding is all there, it'd be mostly minor tweaks. I'm just saying, it could easily quadruple the player count, which is good for everyone! It would just be a different game mode, just as death match, ctf or infantry only could be.

-___- you want inputs on game modes, that's one suggestion. There are hundreds of old renegade players that would be eager to play a prettier stock ren with new maps. If you aren't open to player input, you'll never get anywhere with this project.

Would absolutely love to see a classic renegade game mode, with everything identical to old renegade. No new weapons, no new reticle, no new characters or sprint, or billet drop, or anything else.

Several reasons. If you lose barracks/hon and WF/Air then its all you really have for defense. It also helps distract the other team for 10-20 seconds. If you've been placing fakes every two - three minutes for about 15 minutes, they'll automatically assume fake, so when you place a real one, chances are, they wont look very hard. If they have the field, a fake can sometimes help them retreat a little bit, allowing your team to push forward.

If it's going to get put on steam, the devs need to get it together. The games been unstable for 6 months with still no actual date for a fix. I mean hell, we went 3 months without even knowing if it was being worked on.

They used to be a crate in black-cell in renegade. If I remember right (it's been a decade lol), they had 300 health, no armor, and heal in tiberium. They had a chem sprayer with unlimited ammo without reloads. Don't make it a purchaseable character though.

At least they used to, granted, I haven't done much or cared much about anything even remotely related to Linux since like 2006-2008, lol.

Lawl. If you could mine every door, it would completely take away the concept of sneaking. You pick and choose the most vital to mine, and then you actually have to defend your base.

Aye. Just dual boot. Most Linux users have to do that anyways.

Because they didn't create the games engine. The engine itself probably doesn't support osx or Linux. Most games don't

Devs? Has there been any progress? Is there even any plans/time frames/ideas/anything? Can you at least tell us what kind of changes your working on? Give us something dudes. >.>

Lol, I lost hope in this game when they screwed up all the units. I mean I'll give it a go when they fix the game again, but I'm not expecting anything fantastic.

I've seen it, I lurk, every once in a while, lol. New maps are great, but they don't help if nobody can play them. Stability has to be fixed. And yes, its been years, but now that its released for public play and was being advertised pretty heavily (at least a few months ago), the name is out and about. Hopefully it hasn't gotten a bad reputation due to the crashing. I would love to see it make it, I'm just hoping it can recover

So if anyone remembers black-cell back in the day on renegade, they would remember veteran status', elite, and legendary. All of which have bonuses. It increases attack or defense, increases health, and legendary had auto healing, very slowly. It worked off a point system. Every unit or building killed was worth a certain amount of points, even repairs gave you those points, and when you reached the "vet points" required, and actual gameplay points required, you ranked up. It only lasted through that game. It was great for marathon and was a way to prevent a team full of havocs or Sakura completely dominating the field. It added a lot of team play to games. Figured it'd be cool if someone got ahold of any of the old black cell team and incorporated it into renX.

It would be good to at least let people know what's going on with it. I mean personally I see it as dead, since there hasn't been any updates in months. They shouldn't be concentrating on making new weapons or maps but solely on making the game playable. I know also a lot of original ren players don't like all the changes, in the future, once the game is stable, adding a different gameplay mode, being identical or nearly identical to original ren, could bring in a bunch of players as well.

Yes technically it's a "beta", but people play it and treat it like a full game. Progress updates or anything else would definitely help. Maps should be last priority, but instead stabilizing the game should be first.

Just go play a game of original ren. It's 60% snipers and 40% hotwires. Get rid of havoc damage to any vehicles. It's dumb.

Lol my problem is video memory. It takes every last byte -.-

Fuck 64 players is way to much as it is. Performance of the game turns to shit at that many players

Before NXC I was akiller51. I was definitely a nobody until NXC lol, then the only reputation I may have had was being a loudmouth bossy asshole hahahaha. I was always yelling at the team to do something instead of farting around I was maybe above average, but definitely not one of the top ridiculously good players lol. A lot of the black cell clan members will remember me, as I drove them crazy all the time hahaha. I started in 03, when I was 13 lmfao, and played regularly till I was 18ish, so 08/09 maybe. Once BC shut down my regular renegade days went away, I've played jelly a bit after but never regular. Just every once in a while with some friends lol Oh gawd I remember clanwars.cc. Haha we hated it.
