sup guys. heres the deal there was a rumor back when ren first came out that som1 was working on a sequal to the game (not a mod u download but an actual sequal) this rumor has recently resurfaced, is there any1 out there who knows ANY info bout this? i personally think its a great idea and wish they would've done it a loooooong time ago. i mean EA actually started making it long ago but the project was dropped.

[NSStRyKeR]

yeah its being released tomorrow... just kidding dude i haven't heard anything about it ... got any sources?

[Anant]

are you thinking of Renegade-X ?

[maitybeer]

Renegade didn't sell too well when westwood made it. I seriously doubt ea would spend the money to develop ren2 considering ren1 is dying.

[liquidv2]

they did look into making renegade 2 back in 2002 or 2003 but stopped it almost immediately
and almost immediately after that Westwood was shut down entirely

it's not going to happen, and it's a shame

we could always petition ea saying this game survived wat is it 9? 10 years now? better than any other game they released

[ant1235]

Don't Hope to much. If there is going to be a ren2 ( not renegade-x) Then it will not be from EA, as Ea dropped the entire c&c team right after c&c 4 came out.

[liquidv2]

did they really?

seriously though. imho we have plenty of reason to have them make renegade two. all of the communities we have for rene. the TT patch <--- though it will never come its an effort to improve the game. renegade X, a game that is like a new rene and thus a step in improving/ making anew rene.

i think the only 2 conditions i would want them to have, it pull someone from like rene x or someone who can code games and shit and put them on the team, that way lag/bugs/glitches/having and autodownload map system/ balancing of the teams.

and the second is open to discussion really. should the game be tiberian or red alert. if tiberian should it just be an expansion of tib dawn, or should it be ts or cnc3. if red alert would it be 2 or 3? i personally would say cnc3. but that raises the question of scrin. it would actually be pretty cool to have maps where its scrin vs nod, scrin vs gdi, gdi vs nod, and possibly scrin vs gdi vs nod.

It is not a matter of how long a game will survive (ea could give a shit less), it's about how much profit they can make. And let's face the facts, a couple hundred people playing ren are not going to make it financially worth it for ea to create ren 2.

[liquidv2]

they would do it based on tiberian sun or cnc3
it would be very simple; it's all laid out already
instead of focusing on the single player they should advertise the intense multiplayer because that's the reason the game is unique

^^ This is true however is the c&c franchise very much alive...
There's a whole new generation of gamers out there who might be interested, not just us hardcore ren players..
After all, they did try to make Tiberium alltho they cancelled it so apparently EA does see something in another FPS in the c&c universe.
I don't think they will make a Ren 2.... I blame all those stupid mod makers... I mean... we allready have Renegade in the Red Alert 1 and 2 universe, Tiberian Sun universe, Generals Universe (Scud Storm) and recently, we have a "New" version copied after the original (Yes.. RenX). Why should EA bother to spend money when others do it for free.. EA will find a new way to exploit the c&c universe..
And on a side note:
Do we, as die hard c&c fans, really want EA to make a Ren 2 knowing how they fucked up the franchise as much as it is??? I WANT WESTWOOD TO DO IT!!!

rene had thousands at one point. besides u put command and conquer on a game name and no matter what it will attract revune... look how many ppl bought cnc4 when they knew it wasnt going to be like any other cnc game AND looked awful.

edit: pcp beat me too hit. alothugh pcp, westwood doesnt exsist and if ea makes it they will forget about it after awhile and we all can fix it just like rene now... for the most part at least.

Perhaps you're thinking of Tiberium, the C&C FPS EA was going to make, it was canned long ago though.

http://en.wikipedia....6_Conquer_games

PS. Even if that game came out, it would be as bad if not worse than C&C4.

I wasn't aware that it was possible for a worse c&c than tiberian twilight. I doubt it would be worse (though it didn't look that great either).

Actually, I thought westwood employees left to form the company petroglyph. So technically, they do somewhat exist. And besides, I'm afraid that if ea makes a ren 2, they might try to make it 'innovative' like cnc4 and make it unrecognizable (and crap) compared to ren 1. But you do make an interesting point about c&c name having drawing power.

they still arnt 100% westwood. and u cant have them make a rene 2 because it would be copyright infringement etc etc.

They could make a similar game though, just with diff names, units etc etc

[my486CPU]

Didn't EA release like two trailers for a renegade 2 type games like 4 or 5 years back and then canceled it?

i did hear that Renegade X was working on there own engine like 2 years ago ...but that will happen the day I see god.

Incase you didn't see it.... Ea dumped C&C , so its highly unlikely, petition or not, that someone else would pick up the c&c... Not trying to be rude, but its the fact
