Hey Nod-stradamus, people have been saying Renegade is going to die for years
I have yet to see it happen
|
and so playercount is dropping for years now...and it will die, its only a question of time.
im playing for years now...and hey, if u compare the situation/gamefun NOW with, e.g. 2005/2006, its a joke now.
our question should be, how to make "rens last days" as good as possible.

Renegade isn't the only game that would benefit from TT. Think APB, Reborn, BFD and all other mods out there. Plenty of people still play those mods.

It's not like our opinions matter here at all, but if they did I would vote that everyone calm down and wait it out. I'd rather have a good solid TT patch than one that's rushed or split or faulty. And if playercounts drop to zero and Renegade finally "dies" as has been predicted since like 2006 2004 it came out...then it's time finally came.

NS is rarely empty. I graph how many players are in the server every 5 minutes, have for years now. We empty out 2-3 times a week, tops, and it's generally for an hour or two at most. Compared to a year ago, traffic is only very slightly lower, maybe 2-3 players average.
The faildus bullshit didn't really affect us at all, in any aspect you can measure.
Rather than trying to explain why our traffic levels are a bad measure, you should first investigate whether there is any truth to that allegation.
QED.

I was only stating that it is impossible to define a decent measurement based on one server, if anything you should base it on all servers or at the least the top 10 servers.

I second that.
Cut the patch in 2. Release something now, add another patch later.
|
Like reborn first released an infantry only mod, and then released the rest?
Oh, wait no, they haven't released the rest. They intend to release the rest..
|
It wasn't a critic. And actually the release of our mod as a public beta DEPENDS of TT and Script 4.0. ...
So why do you say that? You know we use a beta version of what TT does.
|
I'll pretend this explains the lack of major updates between the buggy infantry-only beta and the announcement of TT. Does it really take an engine-wide patch to get vechs working?

Probably, if any of their vechs fly (properly).

...I'm going to pretend you're joking, because a large majority of Reborn's vehicles actually do require TT in order to function properly- not to mention many other features.

Let's not shit ourselves. Does getting Nod Buggys and wolverines done require an engine-wide patch? Maybe they can't do everything they want to have done at the moment, but there's little excuse for basically not having moved from that infantry only beta released oh so many months ago.

While I do agree the infantry beta coulda been loads better and they could have atleast had a few more patches, they're a bit too far into using a shitton of TT scripts to get rid of them now and release something. It'd be nice, but it's unlikely to happen now.

It's not a matter of releasing something now, it's about releasing something between yesterday and a year ago or whenever the infantry beta was. It's a shining example of why splitting releases never works.

Wasn't announced, but the reborn mod team knew before the announcement. The reborn mod team are way too far 'in bed' with TT to release anything without it now.
But anyway, offtopic?
|
It's not a matter of releasing anything without it now. I've never been a big fan of the TS arc of the C&C story, and I'm not that excited for Reborn's eventual full release. Frankly, I don't care about any of that. You're missing my point.
Earlier in the thread, Renardin advocated splitting TT in two, releasing something now and something later. I'm using Reborn as an example as to why that's a terrible idea. Splitting a release is a cop-out that lowers standards. It caters to procrastination, and leads to the development team resting on their laurels. Maybe Reborn can get away with that, but TT is too important to be compromised so easily.
