When? 3rd quarter 2005? I thought Renegade Alert wasn't finished yet, or have you just abandoned it? I hope you're making these things for yourself because there aren't a whole lot left who are going to give a damn. Renegade Alert took way to long. Planetside is almost out, and when it is, Renegade is done.

"When SoF2 comes out, Renegade is dead!"
"When BF1942 comes out, Renegade is dead!"
"When UT2003 comes out, Renegade is dead!"
"When Planetside comes out, Renegade is dead!"
"When whatever comes out, Renegade is dead!"
Right. You're still wrong.

Agreed.
Renegade has easily got another 2-3 years before people lose interest.
The truth is... Renegade has attracted many people who wouldn't usually play FPS games because it is SO completely different to every other FPS game out there - there is NO other game that has gameplay like renegade.
My opinion on renegade is this... okay so the game may not have launched as well as expected but it's lived MUCH longer than ANY OTHER GAME that i've EVER bought.
Since renegade's release just over 1 year ago, i've bought the following games:
- Z : Steel Soldier
- Aliens Versus Predator 2 & Primal Hunt
- Earth 2150 - Lost Souls
- C&C Generals
- Sim City 4
All of which are great games in their own right, but i rarely play them anymore (except Generals).
Renegade has plenty of staying power, and that is what it'll do for a while longer - STAY.

I never said renegade would die when those others came out. Those others aren't really anything like Renegade. Planetside is the closest game to renegade yet, but massively so. I mean take a look at the servers, the biggest now are like 32, and those are by some guy with 56k who can't host, so you're looking at your biggest servers being around 20 players, unless I host.

*I* care about monthly charges. From what I've played in the beta so far, it's no more fun than Renegade... maybe even less so. Why should I pay monthly for it? We'll see. Once my computer upgrades are actually finished and I can enjoy PS the way it was meant to be seen, I'll have a better opinion.
I'm the bawss.

You must not have Half Life... That's been out since around 1996/1997 (6-7 years ago), and Counter Strike, a mod for it has over 80,000 players on gamespy alone, plus all the other smaller mods for it (DoD, etc.)
|
Yes i have bought Half Life when it was released, the Blue Shift expansion and downloaded the counterstrike & team fortress mods. The truth is, they're nothing like Renegade except for the fact that they are just FPS's. I played Half Life online about 3 months ago, and it just didn't keep me hooked as Renegade has done.
I've been with C&C games all my life, and they've always interested me over ANY other game released. With each EA/westwood release with games under the name "Command & Conquer" i will gladly buy every one - with no doubt about it.

That'll be cool. I also imagine it won't take you much time since all the building and vehicle models that go with Tiberian Dawn are in Renegade. You just need to re-do all the infantry and add the vehicles that Renegade didn't have (all I can think of is Recon Bike and SSM, but they were in SP so you don't have to model them).
I'm curious how you plan on doing it, are you going to edit the properties (and of course some of the models) to make it more like TD or are you going to completely redo everything?

Duke of Nukes | ok...so basically you're making skins for the game now...but it will be in a packet so you'll have all new skins...
seriously...all I see is skins...seems kinda pointless to make a Tiberium Dawn mod for a game based of Tiberium Dawn
|
Lol... :rolleyes:
Renegade's infantry isn't close to being what would be in Tiberian Dawn.
Most of Renegade's vehicles aren't what they looked like in Tiberian Dawn (For example: Flame Tank, Light Tank, APC, Stealth Tank, Harvester, Humvee (all I can think of atm)).
The weapons in Renegade aren't close to what was in Tiberian Dawn (For example: They basicly used the real world flame thrower in Tiberian Dawn, and not the "flame in a can" as seen in Renegade. The m-16 was in Tiberian Dawn (which isn't in Renegade). The rocket launcher was a shoulder fired Dragon ATGM. Et Cetera.)
Most of the structures have extra features, or features that weren't included on them that the original Tiberian Dawn ones had, and some aren't even present in the game at all.
