WW seems to have now placed a swear filter on every server that not only robs you of all your credits when you DARE to f*cking curse, it also prevents you from doing any damage for an undetermined amount of time, as well.

Evidence (two different servers):

On a game of Field I just played, I planted a nuke behind the GDI ref in _Field - like I've done tens of times before. I defend the nuke, it goes off. NOTHING. No death of the person trying to disarm it, nothing.

And it did detonate - I saw the smoke plume from the NOD base.

GDI's response: "LOLOLOLOLOLOL YOU PUT IT AGAINST THE WALL!" I've taken the ref and barracks down in field as Nod at LEAST 25 times. I KNOW where to place that beacon.

--------

On Islands - I infiltrate the base as a technician and plant my C4 on the MCT of the refinery. Both timeds detonate - nothing. For sh1ts and grins I hit the remotes - nothing.

So goodbye, Renegade. Been a "70\% rating" of fun - which is the verdict I gave this game in my recent review of it. I'm now thinking of putting it lower.

EA: "End-users are complaining Renegade is laggy. Do something about it or have the whiny ones killed."

WW: "WE KNOW, WE'LL JUST SLAP A FIREWALL ON WOL WHICH'LL CAUSE A SH1TLOAD OF UNFORESEEN LAG/LOST PACKETS AND RANDOM DISCONNECTS - *AND* RAISE AVERAGE LAG NUMBERS BY 30-50ms OR MORE!"

It happened to me once, and I hit Alt+shift+tab, deleted all my downloaded mods, then I closed the game, went back in and it was all fixed =]

1:Beat the skirmish game atleast 12 times and learn the controls and vice commands.
2:Be nice to other people don't get into some one's tank unless he lets espcially if he is repairing it or hes the host and you tick him off.
3:Go to forums and read up on Tactics and Strategies,(if there are any).
4:Atleast play throught the 5th mission in sp so you get better.
5 on't go on the web and flame people who are talking about something you don't know about.
^th and final:Always and I mean always listen to the host's rules,notices,andclan tryouts,cause if you get on a game and i'm the host and treat me like a ragmop I will beat you down then ban you from my game before your last building goes.

I hope this helps the bad (mean) noob's.

No they don't. One only really needs to beat the practise once with each side and get to mission 3. And of course listening to people and not flaming them is always good.

1. I type "Engineers only in my Buggy" (for early attack). 3 soldiers come running for my buggy.

2. Enemy Beacon placed and I find where and type what building for assistence. Noone pays attention.

3. I type what base building is in dire need of repair, noone pays attention.

etc., etc., etc.

The map was the one from mp and noone bothered to place mines so I started I told EVERYONE on my team that I was placing them so I did..... (a few min later) I was standing in the tunnel after droping my last mine, I then told eveyone that I had droped 23 mines and then I went back to base and went in the baracks as I came out I look at the AGT to discover a Hot wire droping mines inside so being very after saying that I was droping mines I went to see how many they had droped... 1...2...3.......8...9..........15......20...21 they had droped 21 mines at the AGT and I was very angry and I started shouting at the other player (calling him a n00b etc )

5 min later someone got in our base with a becon and the n00b tryed to ORDER me to disarm it (so I thought I would teach him a leason ) I sent back a message saying "I would but if you didnt throw all them mines on the floor they would have never got in the base" and they said NOW so i said "disarm you own ****ing becon"

---------------------------------------------

In the next level I started by saying that I and only I will lay mines because the rest of you dont have a ****ing clue what you are doing.... sure enough the I cought the SAME N00B putting mines in our air strip what that I said to him "either learn how to play or dont play" with that I quit the game and joined another one and had a few good games

I just wish n00bs would learn to play of GIVE UP and get rid of the game

Never got that far. Single player bores me to death. I recommend everyone forgets it ever existed and plays multiplayer. It's honestly tons more fun (esp. if you are good ).

Lately when last joiners were really really lame...and the next map starts, I hit Tab key twice to see what rank ppl I have on my team.
Then I quit before 2 minutes is up if I see the team majority rank is 14,000 or something.

If they wanted a successful voice communication system, they should have made it like RTCW's.

Go to your base with a damaged tank. Wait and see what happens.

Then try going to your base with a damaged tank and saying "I need repairs!". See the difference?

If you honestly don't see a difference then you are strange, 'cause I can.

It depends if your teammates are n00bs or not (if they are they will tell you to fix your on ****ing tank.)

When a n00b fixes a building (lol) I usally see him aiming at the PT but I have a feeling that it doesn't fix the building (I'm cleaver because I go streght for the MCT (and I hope you all do too )
