i have to say, besides bringing a sheer amount of nostalgia back, the cnc aesthetic is certainly there, which is a good thing. but also odd because it seems like it's been fused with some modern tech.
They definitely did a much better job of making it feel derivative of Westwood's C&C artstyle vs EA's C&C games.
Also the NOD Cabal voice is sexy as shit
[QUOTE=Drury;44112893]It seems the endless stalemates are a design feature of this game... That's a bit of a shame. People say this isn't CoD where matches take 5 minutes, but that's BS in my opinion. When I want to play a game I don't want to spend 2 hours on a single map, endlessly doing the same fruitless tasks over and over and never actually working towards the objective.
I wonder what the game would be if they made buildings more vulnerable somehow. Not too much, but enough to make 4 flame tank squad effective against them even when they have 2 measly engineers standing next to MCT.
It's just that I can't, these stalemates drive me crazy, and losing after 2 hours of fruitless defense is even worse. I'd be fine with it being more about "destroy their base before they destroy yours" rather than "turtle harder to win" that it is now.[/QUOTE]
Load an APC up with a load of technicians, drive in and crush their vehicle production building. Then you have free reign to crush them for as long as you have vehicles and they don't. Might need to take out the power plant / defence tower first, but that can be done the same way.
It is stalematey, but boomtanking is the best way to win quickly. It's either a steamroll or a long slogfest stalemate.
I must expand upon this a later time

bring back classic eva pls
the best line will still be
"Welcome back, Commander"
hnnn
I wonder how it would be if they doubled the price of superweapons, and then added a silo that will slash the price and make them have slightly more splash damage by capturing it.
where's the fp server hosted?
Had an hour long stale mate yesterday that was caused by endless vehicles and people not advancing. Almost used the Gunner Tactic to destroy the Nod Airstrip, but had one person too little to pull it off. So then we yelled at our team for ten minutes since the barracks got nuked. We then ALL got mammoth tanks and rushed the enemy base. Server limit was 14 vehicles. 10 mammoth, 2 medium tank, an MRLS and an APC, we wiped out the Nod Base 5 minutes later.
The problem with stalemate is people not pushing. Get some vehicles and make a push.

People are way to afraid of being killed by base defenses for some reason. Theres reason to fear them if you're alone but when you have 5-10 people you just need to get up there and blow it up. Hell if you have just infantry it will still be more effective than everyone having mammoth tanks pop tarting the enemy from the base entrance.
God damn it, I'm trying to download this game but literally every single mirror I try to use is giving me 5 kb/s download speeds. This is ridiculous.
Use the torrent

Wait for it, mine started off 1 year (most torrents usually do) but it ended up taking 15 minutes

fp server is in Norway

Yeah, same with mine, it only took like 5 minutes.
Also, the game run's beautifully, which is an absolute shocker.
Although there doesn't seem to be an option for 1920x1080. And I don't know how to get rid of this annoying film grain effect.

What? Are you serious? My ping was like 140, which is fairly acceptable even for a West Coast server. You have an awesome connection.

Its the reason I can keep a server box at home, Norwegian Fiber-optic networks are pretty neat.
UDK / Renegade X seems pretty optimized aswell.
Well damn just released it was a free game, downloading.

I like CABAL. He technically wasn't around during the time frame Renegade takes place in, but he's a good counterpart.

CABAL was active in the Temple of Nod in the final mission of Renegade.
Imagine fighting CABAL's Core Defender in Renegade X
If they ever add some sort of commander system whether it be official or in a mod, Nod's playable commander should be Kane.
The temple of your body is sacred,
keep your steppes clean, and your temple will be praised, as yours is the true Temple of Nod.

but to be honest, C&C never has named commanders.
Finally got it running.
I'm discovering how far out of practice I am.
Found a very beneficial glitch. When a round completes and if you are moved to the opposite team, when you go to change your class, instead close the menu. You will be equipped with the last class you used from the opposite team. Was a Nod chem soldier on GDI :D

The base voice is indeed CABAL, it is explicitly said a few times during the campaign.
The timeline (so to speak) of renegade is blurred, but between CnC1 and tiberiun sun, I say blurry because tiberiun sun is reaaally far ahead, but there are still many signs that point to the start of the development of a few things you see in Renegade during the campaign.
