I share the feeling that 3hr matches are not desirable. Not to derail the thread, but i do hasten to comment that: 64 players on some maps creates some of the effects being discussed. In particular I cite: Field and Under. Originally maps for 40 players. 100 %.

Silv, your sense of humor is amazing. Would you start a late night RenXTalk show? Or maybe host a RenX awards show?

Darkside. Field. Dark No. It does not work. This is crap. You cannot make maps dark and expect that to be sufficient. Just NO. If you are not going to put effort into a holiday theme then just admit it. At least Hex mtn has decorations and effects... WOOOOOT wooooot!

A building sound damper would be excellent.

I tried to join some new ( newb ) servers tonight. As so often is the case, i could not join them. Why is this so often the situation? Tonight: Sx Turbo and: Reyans Place.

I think it really sucks that we cant use taunts to play around when we are gathering for a rush...... For Fear that the Enemy overhears us. ooooo lets all be quiet... don't want to be too rowdy..... F that. Heaven forbid we feel PUMPed Up. Should we have a team only Taunt line? a place we can express team bravado? Rally the Troops!!!!

Pulling from events in real, I have read an article talking about good tactics on a battlefield. It listed 3 reasons for success. 1. Ambushing the enemy 2. Slowing down the movement of the enemy 3. Establishing the work of fire teams Renegade X has the first two principles built solidly into the game. I think it lacks the third. It would be great to have it tho! It would be a nice contrast to the usual Top-down-commander-gathers-all for a big push tactic.

I hope your info can help. There is a known problem with bots that they cause crashes. Sadly. Because I like using bots as well. I believe it is not known yet why it happens, so no fix likely near term. But we can hope!

Additionally, may I say.... it is sad that totem arts cant keep its own servers active. >dumps FS shame on yall.

I want to thank FPI for letting me try this mod. At first i was resistant. But I am well known for resisting change. ( I hated rep tools for all.) But the truth is in the game play.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tonight with the servers dead quiet. I went and played on the FPI restorable structures server. I realize now... that this could be a great advantage in building server activity. ONLY 1k for the first building reset? Nice. Heck that is doable on a 1 v 1 level. I could see this helping get low population servers to maintain activity..

my bad kharma continues. Tried Twice to join Classic maps. Fail. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >dreams of a 64 player Toxicity match.

Ok, I know there is no way this will be implemented. So just let me express this and we can move on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I want to fly from the ladder dangling below a helicopter in the game. You Know! Like EVERY action flick ever made. Hero? Flies off on the ladder while shooting the bad guys. Villain? Same~opposite. I want to dangle. Dangle and shoot at shit with my gunner or with a LCG I want to get picked up without the helicopter landing... (reduce the helocoptor some speed with ladder deployed. Include the Risk of hooking on bridges,etc.

I kinda wonder if its a trap for the Field enthusiasts.... never ending field...

Feedback. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I only played the tail end of a brutal game and the start of another. So really I cannot say much as of yet. But ofc i will say...... I find it interesting that while playing, as soon as I learned the new mechanic, that it shifted the game play in my head. O, sure its easy to say... I started focusing on money more... but.... But it is kinda funky how it changes the game. I do not know if I like it or not. I worry that early base buildings kills will be too painful. .. But i do like how a larger narrative of story line is created!

With anticipation I tested this map today. New maps rock I really like the buildings look. I am curious how infantry actions might be unique in support of the vehicle Highway. No flying ? Totem arts server. I could not join. no download rcvd. I tried again after using CT serve and recieving map. CT beta test. I could join as it gave me the download .

>looks for a server testing this map......

thank you. You point exactly at the problem.

Dang. I wanted to check it out but i could not join..........

We Want bots! late night. no one playing... The only options is CT and no bots??? WTH?

and no NA server.................

i will always seek out E.S.T servers and pings that are good for N. America. Never give up hope..........

Tonight i tried to join the Totem arts marathon server, but was unable to join game. twice attempted. I seem to have bad luck trying to join empty servers during this time of the night, ( aka John Carter! ) and other examples. Is there some weird lock out after 12:00 edt? ... or my bad kharma that I often fail ?

I could have replied right away, but your post made me sad. I understand and respect your position even though I have no need for instant responses.

well, >look around the room. Mostly dark and obscured, but some areas barely lit. >find streamers and deflated balloons. >remains of fun litter the floor and sounds of good times reverberate in the walls and floor. Its as if a party of the century has been abruptly stopped. Confetti, poppers. empty champagne glasses...... The sun rises and a new day begins. > With broom I sweep the floor. > empties the dust into the bin >crosses stage left and exits.

Just some thoughts on the current situation with Field. 1. Why do we not have more maps like field? Seriously i .e: maps that players believe will build the server. i.e. maps that players feel comfortable with in small population servers. 2. Why not put the snowy version of field in the rotation? At least if we gonna bail to field when things get small... we can try it in a def skin. 3. Field teaches us that core of good game play is when all the players can see/ understand the battlefield. i.e. maps that are very big lose this aspect of game play.
