"Thanks again for checking out Renegade X!. This is a special moment for all of us. We have been working on Renegade X since 2006 - we started off as an idea, then we became a mod, and now this is a full-fledged indie game. We are very satisfied with how the game has turned out, and we can't wait to see you all ingame. Let this game be a testament that dreams can come true, because at one point, Renegade X was only the dream of a few ambitious teenagers and young adults.

It was clear that there was not going to be a sequel to a game that was a big part of my life. C&C Renegade was the "failed game" with the not-so-special singleplayer campaign that was completely overshadowed by titles like Medal of Honour, Halo, and Battlefield 1942. But Renegade had a unique multiplayer formula that most reviewers seemed to have ignored. C&C Renegade was no good for 56k players, or for players connecting to servers from different continents. Hosting online games was too difficult, unless you wanted a 4 player server on your computer. The game was virtually unsupported just a few months after release. Renegade 2 was dropped, and by 2005, the community was given control over the server browser.

Despite the poor sales, the sub-par graphics, the mediocre singleplayer, the slow internet speeds, and the lack of support, players recognized that Renegade possessed a hidden gem. C&C mode was enough to feed a thriving community for 12 years, and beget many custom maps, skin and model packs, an anti-cheat system, custom community patches, serverside mods, more ambitious mods, total conversions, and even indie games. Renegade was one of the most active (if not THE most active) C&C multiplayer games.

Now, Renegade X a full-fledged spiritual successor to the original Renegade. Our audience is massive, and every major gaming website and magazine is talking about Renegade X. Our trailers are some of the most popular C&C-related videos ever released. Old players are coming back to check us out, and old clans and communities are reforming. Our audience are those older gamers 25-45 who have been left behind by the game industry's dumbing-down of multiplayer games as of late. While the industry focuses on tablet, mobile, and gimmicky console games, there is a whole generation of lost PC gamers who have been left behind. They miss the dynamic sophistication of C&C Renegade, and they are all interested in trying out our free game.

Renegade X is not a direct remake of C&C Renegade. Yes, you will see familiar maps, characters, weapons, and vehicles - the fundamentals of the game are the same. But, no weapon is identical to the way it was before. Certain vehicles play quite differently (Artillery, MRLS, Mammoth Tank, Apache, Orca, Transport). A moderate amount of recoil and weapon spread has been given to guns (and you'll see why). The graphics, audio, and physics have received a complete overhaul. Secondary weapons and new items have been added. Capturable buildings have been added. There's so much that is different - but keep in mind that we are die-hard Renegade fans, and we are very careful with the things we change.

We look forward to your feedback, and remember that Totem Arts will always be there for the community. We will be putting out more game info and strategy videos for new players in the days and weeks to come. We'll also be fixing any of the game's problems, adding new features, adding new maps and gamemodes, making more player-friendly menus and settings, and simply be there for all those who need technical support. We are the biggest fans of our own game, so you'll find us to be very open and accessible."

 

 

 

 

"Thanks again for helping our dream come true - see you on the battlefield! It's finally TIME TO ROCK & ROLL!"

servers

return multiplayer using LAN, that would makes the game more enjoyable.

you know who're playing with -- no more assh*les that you never met before,

minimum lags compared to multiplayer with some distant servers,

no-internet charges, etc.. etc..

 

the inability to play using LAN since severals years ago are just silly.

This looks great, can't believe it has a single player with RPG and levelling elements combined with multiplayer and its free :D

 

Hearing those classic cnc sounds from the trailer just brings back good memories.

 

Look forward to fighting alongside some neowin Nod brotjhers and whooping some neowin GDI scum in the multiplayer :)

    • What annoys me is the people that try to buy a higher end product, and then low ball you, and say but I don't need that function, all I need is to use it for video out so I don't feel like paying higher price.   I had a person that was trying to buy RTX 3080 from me for $100 and his excuse was, well I won't be playing games on it, I just need four monitor outout. Or someone was trying to buy 2TB Gen5 M.2 for $50, well I don't need the speed, is just for basic storage. Or i was offered $80 for 20TB hard drive, that person said well, right now I only about 7TB, so rest won't be in use Just some examples in last month or two...   The guy with the 3080, I replied to with something like go to Chevy dealer and offer them $15K for that brand new corvette and tell them that you you only need to drive to work, so you don't need to go fast.   There a lot of low ballers that try to take advantage.
    • Not in Syracuse, NY. They're about to break ground! https://www.syracuse.com/micro...on-and-other-tech-jobs.html
    • Here in Finland we have lots of rural areas with narrow roads, one of the highest taxes in the world (cars are taxed way above EU standards) and fuel is quite expensive. Yet we educate our drivers to drive responsibly and safely in all areas, and our people respect each others rights and freedom to move around safely. Which is why we have even small children under 10 years old walking and cycling alone to schools in the streets, even in big cities. Safety is about being responsible and about respecting others. And I would hate to see AI (or anyone else) destroy our way of life. There are and always will be outliers, accidents happen and machines break. I dont't want to see people relying on AI to do things like driving for them. I want people to think and react to the world around them themselves, and being responsible instead of them browsing TikTok or whatever instead of looking out the window, and then saying that "It wasn't me, it was the car". Already people walk around town with their eyes glued to a screen – I don't want people driving around the same way.
    • And I should hope none will. I don't want to walk ouside to have some randome AI drive over me and mine. Not that I want a person to do it either but I want there to be an actual person who takes responsibility of their actions instead of relinquishing control to a machine. In some highways I can accept self-driving, but even then there should be some kind of dead man switch etc. that actually monitors the drivers status.
    • No thank you. I want to drive myself, and not just because I don't trust a machine or whatever – I like driving, and I like doing it with a manual car without lane guidance and all other "driver assists". I wven rarely use cruise control. I went through and paid for to have a license to that allows me to do it, and do it responsibly instead of relinquishing control to a machine. I currently drive a van for work in a city, something like 200 km/day. If we everything is automated and computers decide everything for us, the dumber people will get since they don't have to bother thinking for themselves nor do they have to take responsibility for themselves since "it wasn't me, it was the machine" will be their future defence for everything. Soon, Neowin's writers will be out of a job because AI can do it just fine and it doesn't need pay. Wikipedia – a free service with voluntary writers – just started replacing real people with AI, and had to shut it down (at least for now). Lets let ai AI and those that run it (or rather run them) the keys the the world and watch it burn because no one is able to actually do anything without some AI assistant telling them what to do (driving included). What a world!
