First off, I love Renguard and Blackhand Studios. Second off, I also love Westwood Studios even though they aren't around any more.
All the Renegade players out their saying that Blackhand studios are the Godfathers of Renegade, just because they created a anti-cheat program, thats messed up. Yeas, they did an outstanding job with Renguard, but they will never be the Godfathers of Renegade nor the "owners" as some people say. It pisses me off. They did not create Renegade, Westwood did, and they will never take Westwoods place.

ok.
You've had your whine now tell us what YOU have done to improve Ren recently.
You may not like them personally, you may not like the work they do for Ren, but i defy you to fault the level of effort and commitment.
Even making a map is tough let alone building an anti-cheat program and improving it.
Id say they were due plenty of credit, along with a lot of other people who have put time in doing something Westwood studios should have done in the first place.
as far as the "Godfathers of Ren" thing goes,
you deserve everything you get if you take things like that to heart.

I've never seen anyone say that any member of BHS owns renegade
|
Neither have I. But then again, I dont hang around WOL which is full of noobs who actually would say something like that.

Taking that into consideration, a godfather (or god parent) is someone who will take care of you and support you through your life. I've always been led to believe that if anything were to happen to your real parents, the godparent(s) would then take care of you.
When they say "Godfathers of renegade" they don't mean anything like they are the GODS of renegade, or anything like the mafia boss reputation at all. They're mearly calling them the surrogate parents of a game that was left with no support.
In this case, EA/Westwood were the real parents of the game, who appear to have abandoned the community (whether it's their choice or not), leaving it with little-to-no support. Blackhand Studios (the godparents) stepped in to take care of us. This is exactly what they are doing, they have links into some of the EA/Westwood employees, and are providing the support that is not being provided from EA.
It's that simple.

"LONG LIVE WESTWOOD STUDIOS"
|
Thats just funny. It was a video game company. Sure they made good games but they're gone. Your complaining about people calling BHS the godfather of renegade and you go around "Oh long live westood".
Get over it. Westwoods gone. They made good games but they ended up short. Same things happened with many other games.
You remind me of a little hittler youth. "I hate what your saying heres what I'm saying..." Grow up and play some sports :rolleyes:

Look at my Nick isn´t it ironic?
-------------------------------------
Deadfive=
I never saw such phrases ingame....must be a cheater like Blazer wrote...
BTW, now we know that Westwood created Renegade. You tell us the basics,now tell me please why your Nick is deadfive and not Dead Six? And do you know the meaning of my words here? In other words, why are the Dead Six only 5 Fighters in the game? If you know that post it please -otherwise I must call you a basic Renegade player and not full member in the community  .
Ripintou set the right link you can visit. Some programmers from the previous Westwood team are working on new games. Get satisfied.
---------------------------------------
I was in prison while Westwood was killed by EA (They really can damage everything?). OMFG I heard it from friends after it happened.
And you "Hitler youth"- posters STFU!!!!!
You don´t know if deadfive is german and has such opinions which can be compared to this.
I am german and proud of it. I know the german past well, but there is NO REASON to put it up again and again! And I am NOT responsible for what happened 60 years ago. With my age of 26, I have no chance to change the way my country went in the fourties...
I apologise for the inconvenience, but this has to be written.
THX for reading this.
