Totem Arts Staff [NE]Fobby[GEN] Posted February 26, 2013 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted February 26, 2013 Happy Birthday! On February 26th 2002, Westwood Studios and EA Games released the original Command & Conquer: Renegade. Renegade wasn't an ordinary C&C game - it brought the popular RTS series to ground level as an FPS game with strategy elements. It had a unique multiplayer game mode, and we are seeking to harness that in our game. Due to a lack of support for the game, a weak netcode, several launch delays, glitches and cheats, we believe that C&C Renegade did not get the attention it deserved. Despite all of this, the game is still being played 11 years after its release. The community produced many high qualtiy mods, server-side software, and leagues. And of course, its unique gameplay gave us the enthusiasm and the support to develop Renegade X. Renegade X began as an Unreal Tournament 3 mod, and we made several beta releases for Unreal Tournament 3 in 2009 and 2010. We then began developing the standalone version of Renegade X. In 2012, we released a 2 hour singleplayer campaign, and we plan on launching the full game sometime in 2013. Beta Testing Applications Due to some technical difficulties, we'll be postponing the application process till sometime next week. We are having issues with our forums and we'd like the beta testing forms to be as easy for the applicants as possible. That's why we'll be setting up new forums in the near future. In the meantime, I'll leave you all with a few things to think about. The purpose of internal beta testing will be to track as many glitches and problems as possible, and get some general feedback. It's not an early means to play the game, it's a serious and sometimes grueling task. Preference will be given to those who have done video game beta testing before, professionally or for indies and mods. We're also looking for community leaders (website owners, clan leaders, community heads, server owners, etc.), mature gamers, long-time Renegade X community members, and people who can dedicate at least a few hours per week. And of course, this is all done for free. Keep your eyes peeled next week for the application. We will only be accepting applicants for a limited time. Again, we apologize for any inconveniences. Don't eat us alive! Laser Chaingun The Nod Laser Chaingun is back, and looking more badass than ever. Check it out: Islands We've ported and improved one of our personal favourites from the UT3 version. This non-defense beauty looks even better in the UDK: See you all next time!

ssjChris Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Whew, 11 years! I remember when my friend and I would constantly play the original C&C Renegade and Medal of Honor: Allied Assault every weekend. A lot of fun it was... As for this, Islands looks amazing! I remember it being one of my favorite maps in Renegade. I can't wait to see it back in action! My friends and I are eagerly awaiting the beta although silly midterms are coming up along with a boatload of projects that are more or less our finals. Oh, school life... =S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebqt Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 These graphics coupled with the westwood renegade gameplay, I don't think i'll ever play another FPS again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AkuKo Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Ready to test how it looks on 3 screen eyefinity. My only question and consern is that does UDK and Ren X have some kind of anti cheat system. For a free game like this i could be a problem.

Totem Arts Staff kenz3001 Posted February 27, 2013 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted February 27, 2013 udk and ut3 are pretty much the same, all files (maps / game assets) are cross checked with the server ... no texture pack cheats and added scripts can be used in mp (there are built in cheats like god, fly and such but these will be disabled server side) any way love the look of islands looks better then tho origanal and the ut3 verson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappieangler1 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I would love to be in the beta but I don't want to take away a spot from someone who will put in serious time. A stable game on release day will make the long wait completely worth it. Good luck with the second beta! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dario03 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 So did I miss the beta application window or has it not opened yet? I came here on the day that it was supposed to open but didn't check back until ~10 days later but I don't see anything saying that it had opened or closed.

KwisatzHaderach Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 So did I miss the beta application window or has it not opened yet? I came here on the day that it was supposed to open but didn't check back until ~10 days later but I don't see anything saying that it had opened or closed. I was wondering the same thing. I'm not sure if I would have applied, since I hardly have time to play the games I regularly play atm, not to speak of a BETA + giving feedback. Still, i'm so hyped for this game that I would just love to know if there has been some progress in this matter. Keep up the good work guys! What you have shown so far looks absolutely incredible and you can be sure I will mobilize as mucuh playerbase (and media) as I can once this comes out. Thanks for trying to bring one of my favorite MP games back to live! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Arts Staff [NE]Fobby[GEN] Posted March 16, 2013 Author Totem Arts Staff Share Posted March 16, 2013 It was going to close today, but I will leave it open for an extra day.

Generalcamo Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 You may still have a chance. In my experience of testing, there are always: 1. Jerks who slip through applications just to have a showcase video on YouTube, and never play it ever again. 2. A few people who have real life incidents that need to leave for a time (or forever) 3. A need to change the line-up of testers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoxBlade Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Don't see how tbh. Totem will just allow people who applied but failed to get in. I haven't even got a application in which is a tad unfair when main page was never updated. But its also my fault for quick glimpsing forums and not noticing the application thread. Just hope the people who are in do a god job finding the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSTKCabal Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 The game's looking amazing so far, and I think I speak for everybody here when I say that we are looking forward to it. I'd say you already have a success on your hands here, so keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KwisatzHaderach Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I just really wonder what's gonna happen when I accidentally press the power button on the rifle in the right pic. Will it shut down? But not before it has 3/3 updates installed? Is there going to be a safe mode? And what are the other buttons? Plus, minus and play? Where's the rewind button? So many questions...

That's probably for operating the bullet counter as well as the red dot sight that no one ever uses. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
