Renegade was always the black sheep at C&C
I suppose I'll wait for a release.

Well that is because they took out Multiplayer for now and just have the single player till they are done with Mutiplayer.
So, Feb. 26th it is!
Finally, after five years if waiting this amazing project will see the light of day. I'm just a little upset that there is no legitimite way of financially supporting the devs and their hard work.
Not in relative terms. Compared to other, more common MP shooters like quake and BF, Renegade shares a reasonable amount of traits with NS. For example destroyable bases, buying higher rank soldiers/vehicles, managing ressources. It also is very dependend on team communication and coordination. For me, it is probably the game that came closest in tactical depth and thrilling gameplay to what NS2 has to offer.
Although I am not the biggest fan of Renegade-X, I am looking forward to at least trying multiplayer Ren-X.
They are building it presently. They were going without one for quite some time now, because of lack of qualified admins.
Definitely gonna have to check it out once everything gets up and running.

There is always this Renegade mod though:

Finally, after six years of waiting. Some ppl here might like reading stuff like:
"Our audience are those older gamers 25-45 who have been left behind by the game industry's dumbing-down of multiplayer games as of late. While the industry focuses on tablet, mobile, and gimmicky console games, there is a whole generation of lost PC gamers who have been left behind."
Ironic that I'm typing this on my phone, otherwise I would already be playing.
Anyway, got to test it. It's pretty great! Might be biased after managing to hit top of the scoreboard on only my second round... Officer is great value for your credits.
Fun times were had.
Sad part: buying black hand plus nuke, and only then learning that water is 'not playable area' and it kills you.
Awesome part: Chinook full of teammates infiltrating enemy base.
Really fun game. Would recommend. Once you learn the maps, classes and vehicles, there is no OP side, which seems to be GDI with their tanks at the beginning, later you'd think NOD is OP with stealth black hands and nukes, then you realize you can counter everything and there is balance actually.
