Remember the days when it was released. We were hyped. Did not pay attention to details. Tried to play multiplayer. Good old days. Pros.: Story. Homage to the first C&C. Dialogues and characters. Dynamic and variable. Music. Cons.: From modern standards - very poor level design - not many items, rooms look ridiculous. Some small bugs related to the script activation.

La licence "Command & Conquer" a tenté de se diversifier avec ce FPS "Renegade" développé par les mêmes responsables des jeux de stratégie en temps réel surexploités, Westwood Studios... Ainsi, dans des environnements assez grands (Halo est passé un peu par là, je suppose, l'année d'avant... et a dû influencer pas mal de gens) on contrôle donc un gros con et accessoirement surtout, un gros con de Rambo de pacotille. Tellement gros con qu'il est même un prototype de Dwayne "Canard WC" Johnson qui fronce fort les sourcils, fait ses yeux en billes de Loto et vient tout nettoyer : le calcaire ennemi n'a qu'à bien se tenir, y compris dans les endroits les plus inaccessibles ! (hein ? ah bon ?....). Donc, on tire sur tout ce qui est rouge (enfoirés de communistes) et on fait le grand ménage... même qu'on peut piloter des tanks et tout ça... mais il faut récupérer des clés de couleur pour ouvrir des portes de couleur... comme dans un vieux Doom pourri ! t'es sérieux, là, Command & Conquer ? Quoi qu'il en soit, au sein de cette débilité générale qui n'en apparaît que plus flagrante ici (c'était déjà une habitude dans les C&C où on cliquait sur ses "mammouths") on se lasse un peu trop vite, je crois ! de toute façon, en termes de FPS, le jeu reste très dilettante et les "missions" sont carrément beaufs et bêtes à la fois. Techniquement, ça date de 2002 (eh oui...) mais ça tourne sans protester directement en 1080 sur Win7-64, ce qui n'est pas si commun dans le monde du PC ! d'où les deux points quand même pour cette connerie EA trop opportune et un peu trop mal dégrossie.

TL;DR Fun game, had its flaws but the multiplayer made it well worth the money. Renegade was ahead of its time, and was a bold move to try something new. Initially it was received with criticism by those who where worried this was an indication that EA was abandoning the Westwood RTS in favor for the growing popularity of shooter games. The game also was initially buggy and had an unpolished single player experience. However the multiplayer was widely praised and overshadowed many of the technical shortfalls. Renegade remains largely a unique type of game loved by many.

It is fun to see the battleground from the point of view of the GDI soldier. Although the single-player campaign is sometimes too easy it is still very enjoyable. Multiplayer was great at the time, not sure what it is like now.

Renegade was Westwood's attempt to enter the first-person shooter market by taking the universe of Command & Conquer and placing it into a new perspective. After 15 years, Renegade still manages to remain popular . The Single player at best, is a good few hours of play time. Taking on the role as Captain Nick Parker (Havoc), you tasked with rescuing three scientists from the Brotherhood of Nod, with many plot twists and turns along the way. There are 12 levels to get through, each in varying length and difficulty. If you want a true challenge, playing on Commando Mode is the best option, but with the AI's impossible accuracy, tough body armor, endless reinforcements, little health and ammo pickups, it's best to pick Soldier for a more balanced experience as Recruit is too easy to provide a substantial challenge. However, where Renegade thrives is in it's unique multiplayer. The primary goal is to just destroy the enemies base whether you are Nod or GDI. You are allowed to use tanks, soldiers, beacons, etc. to do this and with the active modding community, some maps even allow for vehicles and units that were not present in the original game. The multiplayer allows for teams to collaborate and form strategies to take down the enemy base so you'll never have to worry about going solo. The servers are only active from Friday-Sunday and usually confined to two but with up to 50 players possible, it makes for great battles. For a 15 year old game, it certainly has it's faults. Graphics are dated, getting stuck and glitching out in missions remain a problem, and enemy A.I. in the single player is trigger happy and surprisingly stupid. As this game hasn't made free anywhere yet, buy it for the multiplayer or if you are a C&C fan looking for a good First Person Shooter C&C experience. If this community can get more active, this game can get more recognition for what it achieved in 2002 and how that achievement still holds up today.

На момент выхода было интересно взглянуть на мир NOD и GDI с совсем другой перспективы, на этом достоинства этой игры заканчивались.

When this game first came out it was groundbreaking, however it is still exceptionally buggy. It is not uncommon to get completely stuck in doors or other scenery.

"OH LOOK! We got good bad and ugly all in one room! I'll let you guess who's who." How can I forget that line from Havor talking to Kane? Coming from Red Alert and Command and Conquer along with Tiberian Sun, when this game first came out, i didn't know what to make of it. Since internet reviews were still not a thing at the time, box art and a lot of risk-taking meant that if this game was bad, I get burned in spending my school allowance savings. But its low-cost, back in 2003, and the fact that Westwood made it gave me a hint that this was going to be awesome. More than a decade later, I'm still glad I took that risk. Renegade is all about bombastic action and fulfilling your commando fantasies as a C&C player. because that is what it did, it was the answer to the question of what if a player could ride the awesome RTS vehicles as an FPS gamer. It was the answer to that question of how would it feel to be that guy that I ordered around to fight like crazy in the RTS. Renegade succeeds in most if not all of these things. The best part, is that the game has character. It didn't try to be realistic like the first Red Alert, it just did its own thing of good vs. evil characters with a lot of character and crazy thrown in and to my delight, it did it well. Havok's crush on Sakura often leading to disasterous things, evil scientists, riding a mammoth tank and going psycho with it, that annoying viceroid coming from that soldier you killed using a tiberium weapon and the crazy fun of trying to hopelessly dodge an Obelisk of Light by bunny hopping. The single-player campaign had an impressive and relatable storyline especially if you enjoyed the C&C RTS. The multiplayer however, was far more enjoyable as it allowed you to fight other players, buy (transform) into specialized infantry, buy and ride vehicles and even nuclear missile and ion cannon beacons that you can plant on enemy bases to destroy them because trying to blow up buildings with an assault rifle only is madness. Teamwork was necessary and it was rewarding. One of the best Westwood titles and yet another promising franchise that will be fondly remembered by its fans. Can someone please start a kickstarter campaign for C&C Renegade 2!?

This is the only Command & Conquer video game i played because it was FPS. Overall the game is very good but the boss fights and in general the difficulty was hard especially the boss **** the way there was no checkpoint so i was forced to save my game.

Absolutely, mindblowingly amazing. People generally complain about bugs. there aren't any bugs which make the game in any way unplayable, so they are fine. Single player? The AI is absolutely stupid, i admit. But this game's single player is probably one of my most enjoyable single player experiences. It deserves a lot more praise than the call of duty campaigns in the least. Multiplayer? Sheer epicness. It's like you're playing out an rts game from an fps perspective, and you can be any unit you want amongst the usual 30+ people in the servers. It requires a lot of teamwork, and the satisfaction you get when you finally blow up the enemy base is exhilarating. I wish there had been a renegade 2! was really looking forward to it! Also, the multiplayer community if still very active, for anyone who's wondering :)

Graphics were good enough but dated. Gameplay was alot of fun. Driving the vehicles was fun too, and not difficult. Plenty of weapon variety, like any Doom/Quake type game, to allow for different preferences. Not a short game, but also not long enough. Fun to play through and not unrealistically hard. It's replayability for me stems from the feel of it being part of the C & C environment. A few bugs, like spending long periods searching for that last opponent on the map though. That bug did actually make it frustrating enough to take away from the game. However, always fun to install it again, and run thru it. Love that it definiitely has the C & C feel to it as well.

One of the best games of 2002. And perhaps the best in the series Command & Conquer. Superbly realized the idea of turning real-time strategy into first-person shooter.

Single player was okay, I played through it a few times; however, the multiplayer is amazing, if you get a good team together the strategy the game requires to win just makes it so much fun. Even being on the losing team is fun as you struggle to defend your base. If that's not for you, Renegade was easily modifiable and you could blow all sorts of time into changing the game play. In all I love the game, and I still play it even now.

Renegade is very much a 'go in guns blazing' FPS, rather than one that rewards stealth, strategy, or teamwork--at least in singleplayer. The campaign is enjoyable and has an ok storyline, but really shines in that you really feel like you're playing as a commando in a big game of C&C. The big-scale assault and city infiltration missions are definitely more fun that those in various bunkers, research labs, etc. but overall it's well worth playing. The multiplier is where the game really shines, since it adds strategy elements via the bases and vehicles, and rewards those who use teamwork rather than just shooting everything in sight.

It was ok. Single player is shorter and features a very poor map that gets you lost all the time. Multiplayer was a ton of fun though and very addicting. Almost more then a few bugs and glitches. Overall it was multiplayer that saved its game and gave us a decent experiance overall.

Even if it gets boring to do the same thing in every level of the campaign the multiplayer is unmatched.
