Vehicle limit is 8. Always has been, always will be.

Unless there's a mod out there to change it. I know there's a way to circumvent the limit with the vehicle wreckage mod, but I'm not sure if there's one to actually modify the limit.


On a side note, it's be an interesting tactical change if only one or two vehicles were allowed. It would force people to *gasp* work together during rushes.


never seen the black-cell server were ther is a commander who can order an unlimited amount of vehs?

stealth yes on some maps like city (flying) and on the right server (ctf no I so hate that)



No, I havn't, but now I want to. Smile

Stealth units are good if you have one fixed and limited target in mind e.g. getting behind some snipers with a shotgun.

Stealth units are crap for drawn-out firefights because they attract more than their fair share of attention and get taken out pretty fast if they stay visible for too long.

I always get a lower score if I go sbh because I'm usually more concerned about staying cloaked than getting stuck in with the fighting unless its a certain kill.

My lowest ever score as a sbh was when I spent half a game quietly getting a beacon to the gdi ped solo after the hon got whacked. That was probably the best use I'd ever made of one though.

You are correct sir, Vehicle limit is 8, counting the harvester. If your team has 7 vehicles, and someone purchases another at the same time the harvester is destroyed, I believe it is possible to have 8 units. I personally don't use SBH or stanks but, if I was out just to kill, a stealthy character is a good choice. I don't understand stanks at Hourglass. There good for shooting over the crest, I would still be in an arty though. Flamers all the way. Flamers, artys, and APC's are the only vehicles to buy at Hourglass.


You can't purchase at the same time as the harvester, retard...you can have 8 vehicles if the Ref is destroyed.


the harvester can get destroyed by a purchase if you play as Nod, because its so slow it dosent make it off the airstrip in time if somone places a purchase as soon as they are able.

I find stealth becons n00bish. However it i thought it was really fun when i was playing on a server and got a crate while on GDI and it made me a Stealth Spy. Then I was able to beacon their Power plant.

im not making any, just a statement of fact.

Anyway, SBH nuking does require skill if its a game with good players, because you need to make shure to avoid enemy patrols and try to avoid detection, and finally placing your nuke and trying your best to fight of engineers and possible tanks that might be attracted. i find it most difficult on Mesa(i think its mesa) since there isnt much room to sneak around enemy armor, and a biiiig open area you have to run across to reach a safe place to place the beacon.

He probably means you don't know every God damn thing like you think you do, and being a smart ass is closely related to being a dumb ass in your case.

There is a limit of 8 vehicles per team. This limit includes the Harvester; however, if it is destroyed and a player manages to purchase another vehicle before the Harvester is replaced, then it is possible to have 9 vehicles.

It's not possible to have 9 vehicles. How about you learn some Renegade basics before arguing here, pinhead. Just because you read it on some kind of stupid site doesn't mean it's true.

This FAQ really is great.

Do headshots do more damage?
Headshots do considerably more damage to players than body shots do. When healing teammates using the Engineer's "Gizmo" repair gun, you will also repair faster if you "repair" their head.


That's wrong, too.

HE'S RIGHT, YOU'RE A MORON

THERE IS NO WAY TO BUY A VEHICLE BEFORE A TIBERIUM HARVESTER IS REBUILT

ONCE THE HARVESTER BLOWS UP IT IS AUTOMATICALLY REBUILT AT THE EXACT INSTANT IT WAS LOST.

PLANETC&C IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT, NOR IS JOHNDOE. BUT IN ALL CASES, YOUR OPINION IS WRONG.

Ignoring the fact that this thread was derailed in the middle of the first page...

Regarding the vehicle limit: A picture is worth a thousand words. I took this in a single-person LAN server with a near-pure Renegade (the only things installed are a custom boink and jonwil's scripts.dll), so this is the default case. Therefore, the unaltered vehicle limit is 8 plus the Harvester. If you still don't trust this, there's also an 18 MB video.

Regarding the Harvester contingency: Here's a 12 MB video showing Harvester rebuild timing for both GDI and Nod. This proves that the only way to get a vehicle bought before the harvester is to buy it before it dies, and if you're already at the limit, that's not possible. Also, if the Refinery is killed, the limit's still 8 vehicles (here's proof.)

I'm sorry, but using a character that shoots an ob gun and getting killed by it when all the guy has to do is shoot near the ground is no where near getting "pwnt". The problem with it is that it takes no skill to use and any dumbshit can shoot at the ground by a person. This is why n00bs are in favour of it. In fact, the ob gun is so ridiculous that when I was *REALLY* bored and curious I joined one of those retarded CTF servers that had the ob gun and I was playing field and the gun was so ridiculously stupid that I could shoot at the ceiling even and kill infantry.

Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

stealth is great strategy u can move around without people seeing you and if you do end up killing someone with a good weapon, it makes your stealth even better.


Are you kidding me, the Stealth Soldier's Rifle SUCKS compared to other weapons! And you can't pick up weapons with a Stealth Soldier. Unless your a spy, then you just might.

By the way I think that games shouldn't have vehicle limits.

Yes. You can. I know, I play on Unrules New Maps, where there alot of maps in the rotation that have weapon spawns around the map. You can pick up weapons as a stealth Black Hand, and as a spy.

COOL! I should play there. Does Unrules have bots (Bots like vehicle lock, sell vehicle, team commander, and etc......) in play?

Not that I know of, no. It's mostly a clean server, just allows skins. I haven't checked what all they run, but you could ask Alkaline.
