We'll discuss this internally and get an answer to you all, it's a good question, thanks for bringing it up.

Hey guys. It's been a couple months since we've had an update, so we thought we'd update you with out status and show you some things you can expect to see in the future. As of the 19th, it's been exactly one year since the release of Unreal Tournament 3. Kind of funny, because we at Renegade X had bought it for a good fifty or sixty dollars, and now you can find it in certain places for less than ten dollars. So if you haven't gotten a copy yet, go ahead and get one, because you will not be able to play Renegade X without UT3. Wouldn't want to be late for the Renegade revolution, huh? The team has been very busy for the past few months in all divisions. We've been making our push for some huge updates you could expect to see during the Christmas season, as well as getting C&C mode coded and working ingame. Progress has been grand, and we haven't exactly been telling you all about everything we've been doing - we're just a big fan of surprises - so bear with the project and stick around for progress reports. I can't say much right now, other than that there is a shocking update just around the corner, just in time for the Mod of the Year Awards too! Interview Sonic at CNCNZ has just performed an in-depth, informative interview with Fobby, the founder of the Renegade X. The interview carries a whole range of information about our progress, our opinions, comments about a possible sequel to C&C Renegade, etc. Here's an excerpt: 7) Is Renegade X a direct remake of what the original Renegade offered us or have you added your own twist on how the game plays? Renegade X will surpass the original Renegade in every way. Graphics, well you can see for yourself. Audio, for sure! Gameplay, definitely. No more glitchy bugs and bad net coding. There will also be more to this mod than what Renegade had delivered. Although we're not changing much of the game's actual mechanics, things like new game modes, oodles of server side options, and so much more will be coming to play. Also, just the fact that the Unreal Engine 3 has a much more dynamic physics engine than W3D will revolutionize things like explosions and superweapons, and cause them to blow you out of proportion, literally! You could find the interview here! http://www.cncnz.com/features/interviews/221108.php And now for some work in progress shots of some of the things we've been dishing out: Nod Airstrip The Airstrip is back looking hotter than ever. It's where Nod gets its vehicles dropped off by Cargo Plane. Similar to our vehicles, the buildings in Renegade X will increasingly get dirtier, snowier, or visually more damaged depending on the circumstances of the match. Modeled by Deathlink, textured by Havoc89 and PT by JeepRubi The Purchase Terminal is a work in progress, so it will not be a plain green in the released version of the mod. We've got some great ideas you will see with time Islands A beautiful map by our new member, Zixxer. Islands brings out the tropical side of Renegade X, with bright skies and luscious environment. Islands is a personal favorite for many, and now it is back looking better than ever! Mammoth Tank Concept The Mammoth tank is the biggest, baddest and most expensive vehicle in the game. It's very heavily armored and dual barreled for extra fire power. The Mammoth also has tusk missiles with the ability of locking onto targets for close range havoc. The Mammoth Tank will be completed and ready for use in our next update, and I know you Renegade and Tiberian Dawn fans will love to see its triumphant return in Renegade X. That's it for now everybody. Again, a major update is just around the corner, so stick around and be sure to check out http://www.renegade-x.com for more news and WIP shots in the coming days and weeks. Hope you all enjoyed this brief update! Later!

There will be a Recon Bike and maybe an SSM on custom maps which exchange for a couple other Nod vehicles, but all of the standard maps will have the regular Renegade weapons and vehicles.

Well guys, it's been a year since the release of Unreal Tournament 3. In this past year, the price of the game had dropped very quickly. Many of us on the team had acquired the game when the price was over 50 or 60 USD, while these days you can find the game for under 10 USD. With the new UT3 expansion/big update coming up that Epic has confirmed, they are probably trying to sell as many copies of the game before the release of its expansion. And to your advantage as well. The sole way to get your hands on Renegade X and jump online is by legally purchasing Unreal Tournament 3, so if you haven't gotten the game yet, what are you waiting for? The Renegade revolution is around the corner! :lol: This landmark also means we've had so far exactly a year to work with the editor on getting content ingame and coding our C&C mode. I believe we had made some very quick and efficient ingame progress that we hope to be getting to you all the way you want it. We've got a couple of exciting updates coming up very shortly, so keep your eyes peeled and stay in touch with the forums.

Even if it will be released next week, you won't find out until next week So you'll miss the release.

Actually UT3 has sold over a million copies if you count all three platforms, which is pretty good. Not as amazing as they probably would've expected, but not an epic flop either.

Corrected myself Well it may be good for Epic because they're planning on releasing an expansion pack soon. So the more people who have UT3, the more people who will attain their expansion. It's very good for Renegade X though. Most Reneplayers are cheap and only play C&C Renegade. Now they can finally continue Renegade and continue being cheap.

I was at the mall the other day in great ol' Canada, buying UT3 for a friend, and I had expected it to be around $29 or so. I had in fact seen the game for $9.89 Canadian dollars, which is about 8 USD. It's out for really cheap now, so if you don't have Unreal Tournament 3 yet, then what are you waiting for? Reach into your pocket, get ten bucks and buy it. Imagine if we released Renegade X, and you had not bought UT3 yet You'd really be missing out then.

Well I know Bigfoot speaks very good English, and I used to play C&C Renegade with him back in the day. You're in! I'll set you up as a team member on the forums.

OVER 9000!!!!!!!!! [/spam] So yeah, there's not much more to say. Anyone who's not a beta tester now will have to wait for our first release. But don't worry, there will be a few public betas before the final version, so that will be your chance to report on any glitches.

Lmao, the Titan pterodactyl. "RAAAAB. THERE'S A PTERODACTYL IN TOTEM AATS!"

QUOTE Because C&C has a very thriving German community. I've been playing C&C Renegade for almost seven years, and in all these years I've seen countless German clans and servers, and probably the largest language spoken in Renegade after English would be German. There aren't too many other non-English-speaking minorities within the C&C Renegade community. I'm not saying you'll never come across another language group in C&C Renegade, I am just saying English and German would probably be the two most overwhelming groups. Not to mention arguably more people visit CNC-Inside.de than most C&C English community sites. Sure we could take the trouble in translating all of our massive updates, interviews, and maybe even the mod itself into languages like Tagalog, Hebrew, Swahili, etc. but the amount of work taken in translating might not be worth the amount of people who will benefit (who might be 0 for those languages I had named). QUOTE Isn't it obvious? :lol: Our members are working and therefore do not have much time to be sitting around translating. Pr0ex (coder), Deathlink (he's back!), bube (coder), RypeL (coder), Zixxer (mapper), and many others in the mod are fluent speakers, but they are all very busy with their tasks.

Hey friends, Just a simple request. Renegade X needs a human translator who will be able to translate Renegade X documents updates and documents into German. In order to fill this position, you will need to be fluent in both English and German. Don't try and fool us either by using electronic translators Many members on the team speak the language.

Yeah I definitely remember NE's friendly battles with |CEO|, you guys were great. And then you joined -BiO- and that clan had that alliance with NE. How much I miss those days can't be explained in words I sure hope we could rebuild some of the old clans in Renegade X. Clanwars were so awesome in the original.

If you've registered anytime in the past few weeks and haven't received an email, it's due to a recent malfunction. Our forums have not been sending verification emails for some reason. So if you've registered and your account is not activated, register again and I will personally go through validation on the forums (which should take about 24 hours) until the technical problems have been resolved.

Well the signup was over on the 10th as the news post says, but we will be taking applicants later.

Well I'm sorry, but I'm not going to go ahead and tell you what it is here on the forums, give Saga some privacy here

QUOTE (Tsumetai @ Oct 15 2008, 08:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Family issue. Oh and hey Permagrin.

Hey Saga, I hope thinks are unfolding better there. I had heard about what happened several months ago and I'm sorry for that. On the bright side the mod's been progressing very quickly and we have made some great strides in the mod and the engine itself.

For the past few days, several people have signed up for our Media Platoon. The deadline was tonight, and I would like to announce who got into our media group! Trooper: Representing Renegade X at Gametrailers and official C&C Forums The BlackOut: Representing Renegade X at CNCNZ =HT=Duro: Representing Renegade X at Hazteam.net Radical ROM: Representing Renegade X at Borgamers.com R315r4z0r: Representing Renegade X at WW-Gaming These five individuals will be able to see a hidden new "Media Platoon" board on the forums momentarily. For those who missed out, more opportunities to join the Media group are coming soon! Be on the look out.

Making our own maps is a definite "yes", we just want to get the original ten maps remade as well. The vast majority of the C&C Renegade community still plays the original maps, and the probability of them permanently switching over to Renegade X would increase if we remade those maps that we all love. However we've got some great ideas for our own custom maps, so those are also on their way

MEDIA PLATOON IS ANNOUNCED TOMORROW! We could definitely use more members in the club, so if you'd like to help Renegade X and represent a forum or community site, sign up today. Like, right now. Remember that members get inside information and, if you want, a custom Renegade X signature.

I just wanted to open a thread to ask my fellow comrades, what attracted YOU to this mod and what do you find most appealing about it. If I were a Renefan X, I would probably be attracted to seeing C&C mode back in action.

I believe so.
