  1. I thank you all for your input.  For me, i mined out these gems:

    As a dev, alot of what i do is with that in mind. My bot overhaul is a passion project for me, simply because i see it helping with the sub 20 player count issue. There are 3 other projects that i have been talking about inhouse that i am directly interestend in, mainly because i see them helping with lower player counts. 

    YOu go!

    And its always nice to see behind the curtain, thank you.

    As you've seen with AGN, we added new crate types and repair pads, however, the repair pads cause a LOT of lag on 45+ players. This is simply due to us still learning how to create mutators and finding the most efficient way of doing things. 

     

    This is a great observation.

    My most intense/organised/fun matches were in clan wars which usually maxed at 20 people. But you don’t even need highly cooperative players to fully enjoy 10 vs 10 games if teams are somewhat balanced.

    Just the other day i enjoyed a 5v5 because it was balanced.   Both sides hustled.

     

  2. Is having one server monopolize the game Good for the game?

    1.  I play less.    if i have time to play and the only server is full...i go play another game.

    2. Diversity is lost.   Diversity is life.   Only one server means only one type of gameplay.   Perhaps if there were more options then more folks would play.

     

    On the other hand.....    Having an active server is paramount.    ...

     

    YOur thoughts ??

  3. I had a blast this weekend when i found the server being used was timed.    Man O Man.    I really enjoyed the difference.       Thanks!

    I also got to see some of other people's perspective as they talked about wanting marathon to fill up.

     

    Would it be feasible  for a server to  sprinkle some  timed into their marathon.?   i.e.  a blended server?

    Let's be frank.   Well frank left the building.  Let's be honest: with only one server populated, most times, won't the players tolerate a little back and forth?

     

    Just a thought.....   Thanks  all for the timed.

     

  4. Feel free to post your ... What just happened?  Here.

    Mine:  in game.   lots of talk of a hacker going round.  The games kept ending abruptly, often after the first building fell.   Repeatedly games end oddly.

    FIRST,  my thanks to all who serve to moderate our community.

    Second,   what just happened?    Did the hacker end the game?      Did a mod end the game because of something the hacker did?

    to share my experience,   i wonder if we are overreacting.     If someone is hacking and gaining and advantage,   do we just end the matches?      As a poor soldier of the trenches it seems like we could fight on and have some fun still, without the abrupt end.

  5. I have been out of the game for awhile, so please pardon this request to rehash the subject of timed matches.

    Please feel free to share  your thoughts be they positive or negative about the subject.

    I myself always loved the game play, but i also recognize that it is not currently viable.     I would like to understand the situation better, and ideas  may drop in this thread.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Q.1.   Why do players not like this game mode?   I Love it!   I hear some talk about the game being interrupted.   I don't understand this.

    Q.2. Didn't we used to have 3o min games?      I prefer them shorter than 60min.   did players push it to be longer?     

    Q.3  Would there be any support for a designated time in the week where we try to play  timed?

    A timed game will end with certainty, but might be a close win/loose. The nature of these games is more competitive (just like most sports) since every score counts. And in those tight games, both sides will fight even harder in the last minutes to gain victory. After that you shake hands, admire the effort ("gg") and go for a new round.

    o man i can taste it.    That is the stuff.  right there.

    AOW brought forth a second victory condition that was overall too complicated for players to grasp

    sad but true i guess.     I think it was the best element of the game because it presented so many different ways to win.

    If your team knew you were about to blow up a building they might put some grit into their defence. Hope is a powerful thing.

    I think is an element that could be worked.    The Worst, is when you loose a building and yet you know your team is about to pull off an equally destructive move.

    Ways to increase team awareness of the overall situation might be helpful.     Encouragement from a bot is nice, but from your team is very nice.

  9. Hey All,       I finally got a new machine and a new connection and am back in the game.

    I like most of the new changes i see.    But since i have never been able to play with effects full on before it seems like a new game to me!   Wow those colors  and effects are awesome.

    Sadly i really miss the gameplay of timed games.       Were they just not liked?  What happened  to them and is there ANY interest in bringing them back??

    But it is still a GREAT GAME !      And i do not have to portal to enter a building.....  wow... lol.

  10. ow. thats harsh.     I cannot answer your questions, only offer up a thought.   Surely they all  do not see the fun in fighting on.   I think this game is still has a lot of great fun when you are behind.

  11. Long time player, long time missing.

    Seems like when last i played  X mtn was a new map.  !   Thanks to all the help in Support that got me back in game.

     

    My top 5  impressions on my experience upon return.

    1.  i like the ability to spawn as an engr. or etc.

    2.  hotwire with heavy pistol and infinte ammo.    Nice.

    3. Graphics.   Wow.  Just wow.   So much better looking and the colors .......   Great work !!

    4. Maps.    Nice improvements all round in General.  GJ!

    5.  Idk about this surrender thing......    i guess if its neccessary.

  12. Thanks to all for the support!    Success!    I am now able to play the game.   :)

    I think the previous unpack was corrupted somehow.    I unpacked it a second time and the launcher was there.

  13. C:\Users\x\Downloads\Compressed\Renegade-X#Open-Beta-5.271#\Renegade-X Open-Beta-5.271\Binaries

    This is where downloaded, extracted file resides.

    I dont see a launcher button.

    I have tried : unsetup.exe  but that doesnt get me the game.

    ?Perhaps i need to extract to a different location?

  14. Ok...  some measure of success i believe.   Upon the suggestion of  Handepsilon  ( ty)  i got the internet download manager and used it.

    I believe i have successfully downloaded the file from itweeks.   But i am stuck on how to get it running on my machine.   

    When the dowload completed i waited for the program to assemble it all, then it shows it listed.     I tried extracting it and it looked like it copied it onto my drive.

    {edit : yes it is in my drive.  it is in downloads compressed.   compressed w z7}

    BUT i do not have a renegade icon yet.       How can i get it ?      

  15. Mark me bummed out.   I tried again and failed. 

    I tried to download iTweeks file.    It ran for about 2 hours until about an hour remaining.   Then when i checked it said download failed.

    I have now used 4000mb of my 15000 for the month.   I could try once more this month if i can get a lead on what the problem is.

    I would really like to join you all in game.    Suggestions welcomed.

  16. Thanks all,

    I think my next attempt i will try the itweeks file download. 

    Madkill, i have left it sit up to 20 min of no download activity.

    Schmitzenbergh,  It does the first step, verify.  But then jams on the second part...downloading

  17. to be specific, the initial download works, but when i launch the game, the  "?updater?"   (the three bars of green)  ... that goes part way and stops.

     

    >Ty fffreak9999

    so..I am clicking the game download MSI given at the site.

    also, itweek linked to the game file above.   Will that perform differently somehow? maybe bypass my problem?

    Thanks all
