Another Renegade 2 Hint

Smurfbizkit pointed me to a rather specific job posting on the EA Jobs site:

Does the idea of contributing your specialized knowledge in sound design to the next generation gaming platform for EAs widely recognized leading Sci Fi franchise get you pumped? EA has an exciting opportunity for a Sound Designer who will work closely with the Audio Director on creating sound effects, dialog and music for a next-generation first person shooter game. You will be instrumental in designing audio elements for a high profile new intellectual property.

(...)

Responsible for designing and implementing sound effects for C&CX including sound effects design and editing, music integration, field recording, technology development and documentation.

Unless C&CX is some kind of audio production flow and EA has some other "leading Sci-Fi Franchise" (and the job's also for the EALA studio in particular), it looks like a C&C FPS may be heading our way...[/b]

As I said earlier today, before I found this news article, I would rather have a new Renegade than 3 new FPS games. I simply haven't played any other game more than Renegade.

If there will be a Renegade 2, it won't affect the progress of Renegade 2007 (unless EA is doing the exact same thing we are )

The C&C Renegade formula is what made this game last so long. Let's hope EA uses it.

Edit: And yeah, it'd be nice if they use Crysis or UE3 :roll:

MAJ : Notre confrère russe CnC3.cc en rajoute une couche avec une liste des jeux en développement chez EALA :

RTS : Command & Conquer 3 : Add-on

RTS : Generals 2 avec une sortie pour 2009 (je sens que ça va gueuler )

FPS : Army of Two

FPS : Renegade 2

It says these are the next project of EA. This news was posted in march 2007... this piece of news confirms the fact that Renegade 2 (and yes, that is the name of the project) is in progress. They were already right about 2 of the games, let's see what happens with the other 2.

i think that Generals itself sucked but with zero hour it really rocked

[CarrierII]

No, it was unbalanced and completely unrelated to the story line... sigh.

Yay for Ren 2... lets hope someone at EA feels like taking the harder path of better gameplay, than the easier one of better graphics.

All Zero Hour did was polish the turd :wink:

Some aspects of that game weren't bad, but it had no background or storyline, nor did it follow the traditional C&C game storyline. C&C was meant to be 1 story, not 3 universes.

This just in: Renegade 2 Unofficially Confirmed by an EALA source.

let's hope that don't screw it up.

Generals+Zero Hour are alright games but there just not C&C.

[R315r4z0r]

As long as Ren2 has C&C mode, I will be happy.

I think it would be cool to have a conquest mode. You know, battlefield-like gameplay, with capturing command posts.

[GummiBear]

agree and if the command post then were neutral buildings like Oil derricks, machine shop etc. it would really rock
