Share details about your first ever Renegade game in online multiplayer AND tell about your first ever successful beacon. If you can remember!
FIRST GAME:
The first map I ever set foot on is Walls_Flying.
I spawned in the middle PT in the Nod Refinery as a Nod soldier. I dunno what server it was. As I walked out of the front door and crossed the air strip runway, I noticed the whole base was empty and the thing that caught my eye was the red sky and nuclear ash clouds (someone had just nuked something).
I didn't know how to change chars yet so I went up the wall on the left side and just stood there taking it all in till I noticed an Orca flying in from the right...lol it was so close in my face! I shot it with my rifle and I saw its health go down after which it retreated.
I remember typing in chat and bragging about how I "drove that Orca away!"
That's all I remember about my first game online.
FIRST SUCCESSFUL BEACON:
It was on City_Fly. I managed to buy a beacon. I still didn't know how to change chars lol.
So with the GDI soldier I went all the way up the bridge and went right into the Nod base. AS was the only building left. There was a Nod/GDI gang bang going on nearby...so I just walked in and planted my ion on the end of the strip. gg lulz
edit:
I know sometimes it could be just vague memories for many of you who have been playing since the game came out but do try to remember for it will be nice to know! I will enjoy reading your stories

Well, I was dropped from the back of the transport chopper, took out a couple of snipers and had to make my way over to a convoy under attack by Nod forces, so I went over, supported them, engineer blasted tank debris to clear the road. got in to a medium tank than I saw an orca trying to take out some units and it flew away, took out a Nod harvester and made our way over to a Nod base it had an obelisk, SAM sites, scattered infantry, gun turrets and light tanks with mobile artillery.
Direct assault was not possible so randomly some general dude radios in to tell me that an ION strike was underway, and boom, it was very pretty and lol, I walked through the Nod gate and there was a mammoth tank behind me, I was like ...

Can someone please suspend archerman. It seems it is impossible for him to make a post without taking a stab at someone.
I wasn't very computer literate at the time, so I didn't really know much about the internet. I didn't believe I could connect online when I had dial-up.
I spent as much time as I played online in either single player and multiplayer practice.

I don't remember my first beacon, but my very first game of C&C Renegade was in the demo, I think sometime late 2001 or early 2002.
I spawned as a Nod soldier on Under, which was the only map at the time, and just ran to the field. I went inside the Nod bunker and saw an Engineer there, and shot him dead. "Boink" "what the hell as that?!". I went more into the field and killed another GDI Soldier before I died.
I don't remember the rest of the game, but I played the demo a lot (something like 400 hours before getting the game itself).

Had a huge arrow pointing towards it already, or did that come later?

Can't remember either, it was fucking 8 years ago and I was 12 at the time.
I do remember my first successful double beacon though, on walls_flying, with all buildings still standing. I snuck into the nod base with a hottie + orca, and ioned the ref+pp, there were like 5 techies in the base and the only sak they had was on the mesa and only in the last 5 secs did he start shooting at me, so it was reasonably easy, but my hands were still shaking badly throughout the whole thing. It went off and the entire server wa like WTF JUST HAPPENED.
