One step closer to renegade 2?

description: Source: planetcnc Quote: Smurfbizkit pointed me to a rather specific job posting on the EA Jobs site: Does the idea of contributing your specialized knowledge in sound design to the next generation gaming platform for EAs widely recognized leading Sci Fi franchise get you pumped? EA has an exciting opportunity for a Sound Designer who will work closely with the Audio Director on creating sound effects, dialog and music for a next-generation first person shooter game. You will be instrumental in designing audio elements for a high profile new intellectual property. (...) Responsible for designing and implementing sound effects for C&CX including sound effects design and editing, music integration, field recording, technology development and documentation. Unless C&CX is some kind of audio production flow and EA has some other "leading Sci-Fi Franchise" (and the job's also for the EALA studio in particular), it looks like a C&C FPS may be heading our way...

I simply haven't played any other game more than Renegade. The C&C Renegade formula is what made this game last so long. Let's hope EA uses it. Edit: And yeah, it'd be nice if they use Crysis or UE3

description: Jecht wrote on Thu, 20 September 2007 16:58 Meh, I want to see something new. No re-used gaming engines please. I have to disagree.. Bioshock was full of shiny graphics.. Iv'e been told the gameplay is super easy on all settings.. Crysis, Has some great potential (The single player looks great) but has far too much shiny graphics. UT3 is UT 2004 only with improved physics and SUPER graphics... Notice what they all have in common? graphics. Too much detail brakes a game imo, Half-Life 2 has nice graphics, Sure.. there out dated now, But the gameplay is what is great, Because they focused hard on the Maps, Gameplay, Story and Engine itself.. Not the graphics. See my point? EA will try to make it "HD BITCHES" and it will suck, then we'll all call the game a shitload of shit and.. yeah. Well.. I doubt it, But they will focus too hard on the graphics and it will look like the same as Crysis and any other game with nice graphics, And the single and Multiplayer would suck. Unless they gave buildings death animations, And new units and kept the War Factory and Air Strip.. and possibly added a new faction to the game.. then I'll shut up and play.

description: Lets hope that EA don't make our projects obselete. AR, APB and Reborn have all worked pretty hard to get to where they are currently and it would be a shame to dispel it all. If there is a new engine it should be made on a totally upgraded version of the w3d engine so then we can port our stuff with ease. This would also mean the return of a new version of the Commando Level Editor which a lot of us know how to use. It's all very well saying "put it on crysis" or "put it on UE3" but I don't think that a new Renegade game should jump on the shared engine bandwagon. It should stay on what it was built on, the w3d engine, the C&C engine.

description: Ya, I agree with Alex. Westwood didn't even have to time to fully finish the game, polish the grahpics etc, they got it to work OK on online, and it was released. Tbh, renegade STILL has good graphics, not like CSS or C&C3 grahics, but they are great for a 2002 game, and still not completely outdated even today. I was wan't EA to listen as much as they did with C&C3, and more. And ofcourse keep the classic C&C mode, and on a new engine. I know its asking too much, but we can hope

description: They've got access to all of the engines mentioned, it could well be any one. UE3 is my preference (Runs well on Mid-end and UT2004 had a linux installer, so the engine must be pretty penguin friendly) What I don't want to have to do is buy £450 worth of expensive HD monitors and HD graphics cards. Still, if the community pressure is what caused C and C 3 production to "work", than we need community pressure again.

Not that graphics matter to me, but I disagree. Even then, they weren't that great. There's such a lack of detail with the low polygon count and the low resolution textures. Playing the game without AF makes everything that's not within 10 feet of you look muddy. Bad graphics and a bad single player are the two main things that made the reviews so negative, which is why the game never got popular, even though the multiplayer (which is the real game) gameplay was/and still is great.

description: My greatest hope for this project: Keep the fun EA. It isn't about graphics, or features. It's all abour c&c mode and ease of modding. If you can capture that and allow it to run on lower end machines, you'll have a winner. I still play Ren 1. The VIS glitches, and lag don't concern me as much as FUN. I love BF2142, but I want another RENEGADE with c&c most of all.

description: Very well said, Kirby. I hope they make it run on low-end PC's and do not use the new engines but I think it is unlikely they will do that. They would want Renegade 2 to be a success...not a "failure" like Renegade. So, I think they will do what they did with C&C3: listen to the community. I am pretty sure the game will need a high-end PC but just imagine how good it will be if they manage to integrate good graphics with C&C mode....that will be sick. And it will do good if they have the Scrin in there but that maybe asking too much.

description: W3D is far too late for a new Renegade. It would have worked for Westwood's "Renegade 2", but let's face it, that was 4 years ago. W3D isn't even good at what it was made to do, and is obsolete for game developers. I'm not criticizing the mods on W3D, they are doing an excellent job. But for a company like EA, which already has Crysis and UE3 licensed, they might as well use them for an FPS. And no, these two engines are not "just about graphics". It's quite the opposite - go watch development videos, and you'll see why so many companies have licensed the Unreal Engine 3 for 40 games. And we all know that Crysis is simply revolutionary, both in graphics and physics. How many companies licensed W3D? One thing I do hope is that EA sticks to the original Renegade formula instead of falling into the hole of traditional game modes (CTF, DM, and more "glorified" modes). I'm having a feeling that if EA does not pull this off right, people will instead revert back to the addictive Renegade 1 gameplay. If C&C Renegade was used as something to improve upon (note, I say improve) then a sequel would be great.

description: Although I'm hoping this is true as much as anyone, I'll wait until it's confirmed. I repeat, if a "Renegade 2" or even Renegade 2 type game is intended, it better play like Renegade 1 and not BF or MOH mixed in or anything. The C&C Multiplayer Mode has to be the core of the game. Of course they shouldn't ignore single player or graphics or anything else that Renegade 1 suffered from or we'll have another Renegade 1, but I as long as it's got Renegade C&C Multiplayer, which is what lasted throughout the years, I'm fine with it. Imagine being in the WF and hearing "Mammoth Tank Assmebled" and a nice shiney MK-III comes treadin' out with the rail cannon upgrade you also purchased. Sexy.

[read this EA]:::i hope they make more realistic physics like BF, (graphics are a just a plus, they don't make or break the game, hell just look at this whole community playing this game with old graphics. were fine with them.)

description: It's a moot point about the MODs anyway. They won't become worthless becuase a new Renegade would most likely be based around Tiberium Wars, not Red Alert, Red Alert 2, or Tiberian Sun. IIRC, EA knows and has sort of unofficially approved of APB at the least, so they wouldn't make it on that. Even if a new Renegade came out, the MODs still proved useful by keeping the community along in all these years, and I'd bet people would still play them anyway (maybe not as much, but they still would).

If you don't like our mods and attack them without constructive criticism why even post? You could always come and meet our userbase and try to convince them otherwise, but I doubt it. Another thing that you have failed to realise is that APB, AR and Reborn technically aren't Renegade mods anymore. The three projects are free standalone games built off the w3d engine. We can do this because EA have given us consent to do so. I guess you guys are in the wrong place, this is for C&C fans. I would think that every C&C fan would relish at the idea of playing FPS versions of Red Alert, Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Sun. So stfu, gtfo and go troll elsewhere.
