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. Secondary weapons and new items have been added. The graphics, audio, and physics have received a complete overhaul. A moderate amount of recoil and weapon spread has been given to guns (and you'll see why). Certain vehicles play quite differently (Artillery, MRLS, Mammoth Tank, Apache, Orca, Transport). But, no weapon is identical to the way it was before. Yes, you will see familiar maps, characters, weapons, and vehicles - the fundamentals of the game are the same. Renegade X is not a direct remake of C&C Renegade. They miss the dynamic sophistication of C&C Renegade, and they are all interested in trying out our free game.
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. 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. Old players are coming back to check us out, and old clans and communities are reforming. Our trailers are some of the most popular C&C-related videos ever released. Our audience is massive, and every major gaming website and magazine is talking about Renegade X.
Now, Renegade X a full-fledged spiritual successor to the original Renegade. Renegade was one of the most active (if not THE most active) C&C multiplayer games.
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 2 was dropped, and by 2005, the community was given control over the server browser.ĭespite 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. The game was virtually unsupported just a few months after release. Hosting online games was too difficult, unless you wanted a 4 player server on your computer. C&C Renegade was no good for 56k players, or for players connecting to servers from different continents. But Renegade had a unique multiplayer formula that most reviewers seemed to have ignored. 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. It was clear that there was not going to be a sequel to a game that was a big part of my life. 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. We are very satisfied with how the game has turned out, and we can't wait to see you all ingame. 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. "Thanks again for checking out Renegade X!.
