I love Renegade. As long as there are 20 people and one server up, I will play it. I have more fun with Renegade than CS, HL2 or any other game.
The 12000 players are what we call a fan base. Look at tiberian sun, there are still people making mods for it and playing, a lot of people.
And it's game from 1997...

I'm 25 and I still play games.

Same here, and I have 2 jobs...
I didn't know Ren came out in Feb 2002. I built this pc that November and got the game shortly after. I guess that makes me somewhat of an experienced player. EA didn't appear to support it for long though...
No flashy signature..

| Westwood merged with (was purchased by?) EA shortly after Renegade was released, to the best of my knowledge. EA then promptly all but completely dropped support of every Westwood game.

I tried but it says that the e-mail address is already in use or that I have already registered with that game serial.

tooncy | 12,000... Lets put that in perspective. A small town has about 12,000 people in it. 12,000 is by no means a small number. Renegade has the population of a small town playing it.
|
Steampowered.com:
Average unique users per month: 2,335,749
current min max
n Player Count 139,840 60,439 180,156
n Server Count 87,405 46,189 87,934
This is at 1:12 AM. That count blows Renegade away.
|
So? Renegade still has a large fanbase. It is by no means as large as CS, but you cannot deny that 12,000 players is not a signifigant number.

It's 26,000 players during a month. It's highly unlikely that all 26,000 players will be signed on at the same time.
