Command And Conquer: Renegade

Command and Conquer : Renegade is a fps (First Person Shooter) game. Its story takes place during the final days of the First Tiberium War originally depicted in Command & Conquer where the player assumes the role of commando Nick ‘Havoc’ Parker carrying out various missions assigned to him by his superiors. These missions take him all over the world in various countries and climates, both indoor and outdoor, and his actions greatly affect the current state of the war. You have two choices. You can play online or do a campaign. The online one has tons of servers to choose from. You can use Westwood online or Gamespy. There’s Different maps like C&C Island and C&C Mesa. Those are just two of many maps. Renegade has a few different characters for each team. The teams are GDI (Global defense Forces) and Nod. GDI is like the US army. With the modern technology (Except for the repair gun). Nod is mutants which have almost the same weapons. GDI and Nod. Each team starts with a base and must purchase vehicles and advanced character classes in order to destroy the enemy base and defend their own base. In the single player mode, you play as Nick “Havoc” Parker. Which means you play on GDI against Nod. You play with computers and against them.

The multiplayer component of this game takes on the form of ‘Command and Conquer Mode’, where players are divided
into the two teams of GDI and Nod. Each team begins with a base and must buy vehicles and advanced character
courses in order to destroy the enemy base of operations and also defend their home base. The game is won when one
team destroys the other’s base or when the time limit expires and the team with the highest score is declared the
winner. Damaging and destroying enemy units and structures gains points. Some servers allow the ‘endgame beacon’ .

That causes the game to be immediately won by the team that successfully detonates a superweapon beacon on the
opposing team’s pedestal which is located in their Barracks or Hand of Nod. Gameplay is a combination of FPS and
RTS elements, since team members receive money from tiberium harvesting and must buy their own equipment.
Both sides also have their own artillery piece, as well as engineers that repair buildings,vehicles and heal
infantry. Engineers effectively operate the vehicles, since as an engineer you can jump out and do field repairs
if your vehicle takes a hit. But watch ou! Enemy players can steal unoccupied vehicles and wreak havoc. Some of
the most satisfying moments in multiplayer Renegade involve jumping in the driver’s seat of an unaware enemy
vehicle and proceding to run him over with it. Is that teaching him the “finders-keepers” lesson or what?
Renegade graphics and audio are ok but not spectacular. The music is heavy bass and quite plain as it continues
in the background of your single-player game. The multi-player game has sound effects when an enemy is taken
down. In multiplayer, there is the robotic female voice informing you of various target attacks and other noises
that can become quite annoying during a large match.
Overall, Renegade aims to offer a high quality version of the much older games. Single-player mode is a great
strategy classic while multi-player is geared towards shooters. It’s highly available making it well-suited for a variety of players.
