Late '02 after I got bored with Jedi Knight 2 and remembered that the demo was kinda fun whenever there weren't massive lagspikes. I asked to join the #1 ranked ESL clan after a month because the idea of being in a clan sounded cool. They only let me in because they needed more people to pay for their server, but it didn't take long until I was better than most of them.

lol

It's all part of the big illusion that we perpetuate on ourselves and in turn is perpetuated upon us. When we believe, we engage the illusion. When we stop believing we shatter the illusion and shatter ourselves in the process. Because we are, part of it.

I really expected a larger group of post- tfd. It says a lot that such a predominant segment (nearly two thirds) is 2001 - 2003. Of course the data sample is small, but still....

I played through the new map bundle and love the new auto-downloader.

I am hoping more catch on to the fact newish stuff is available with a minimum of hassle


Peace, Unity, Brotherhood.

Me and some friends heard about the demo, and we played it. For a while, I was only able to play at my friends house, til about 6 months after release. Finally got my PC and went from there. Had like 10 people around the neighborhood playing together, til everyone moved away or lost interest Sad

One of my college roommates bought it the first day it came out. Saw him playing it a couple of days later and watched for a bit. Ended up driving to Wal-Mart that night to buy it. Can't believe I've stuck with something for so long (off and on recently).

Man, I've played this game for so long, I remember when people used to flamerush on city Thumbs Up
Or buggyrush and apc rush on under Thumbs Up
Or when there were like, 4-5 people who could ACTUALLY snipe Thumbs Up
Or when people actually worked together Thumbs Up

2006 I think, since that was when we got a better internet connection. Before that me and my brothers played the multiplayer practice over and over for about half a year since we had dial-up. Playing online with that just didn't work.

So much time spent on Renegade.

I played the demo, and played the full game on release day in 2002.
I remember seeing the teaser on Yuri's Revenge and watching it over a few times, made me very nostalgic for tiberian dawn Smile

Holy Shit! WD! Where have you been and how are things going?

I started with the Beta, lost my letter a long time ago though.
