Renegade info

[shaitan]

With some people not frequenting IRC or Discord as often as here, they may have been out of the loop regarding certain changes.

As you may have noticed, Renegade was released on Steam. W3DHub have been in talks with Westwood/EA to get this done. They've been the ones getting people to download TT scripts, to be able to join via the ingame Gamespy list/W3DHub list(shout out to Unstoppable), and making tutorials/helping the new players get into our servers/fixing their games.

What you may not know was RC will be collaborating with them by trying to get people into those other servers. We could easily take all of the players at night(as it's been going) or work with them. I've tried making all of you happy, but it rarely ever works that way regarding playerlimits.

I've been keeping track of the Steam guys getting blocked for 'game is full' as much as the server will give us that info(it's a picky bitch). It's what I've been giving those guys in order for them to see just how many Steam players Renegade(as a whole) is losing out on when we cap the playerlimit to 40. There is a possible fix being worked on by TT, and if it works we'll use it. We can cap ours to 40/50, and "redirect" players to a server in a config we have.

The 'no advertising' rule? It's been removed for now. If you see our server maxed; try and get people to go into MPF/W3D/Exodus/our Overflow. They'll be doing the same.

In other words; we're going to be fair about it whether you scream at me or not...because they did do the work.

 

On a different note for a future topic; we'll be upgrading the Marathon server to the newest scripts, and it will be different. Get ready for your drama fests, I'm already dreading that.

Great days for renegade with all this extra traffic regardless.  Well done.

Much love to the RenCorner community! Amazing work by everyone involved in keeping this game going.

Genuinely serious kudos to @shaitan , the rest of management, and all levels of staff under his leadership.

As founder I envisioned the RenCorner name becoming *the default* Renegade server/community/place to be - it just wasn't the right time and place for me to see it fully through. I've dreamt of having these issues of trying to make other servers happy trying to juggle being the default place to go and I think we can all agree the staff are managing this issue very well and fairly. 

Thanks to ya'll we have an awesome place to play a true gaming classic. I've started with Renegade and I will probably end my gaming career with Renegade.

Much love.

I have seen with my own eyes how Renegade has developed over the years. Its rise and then decline in users

I clearly remember the time with Animoski and the old Rencorner, team everything was exciting, fun and hard work. 😀

 

But yes, it is definitely the right decision shaitan has made. ( let's keep Renegade alive )

Big thanks to both of you shaitan & Animoski 🤙🏽👍🏽
