I was considering buying this game but I have yet to read any reviews or anything. What is the general concensis of this game, good, bad or just blah.....

Just curious......

Cheers
 
Umm...I'd wait until the netcode improves, based on what I'm seeing in the demo. It will probably be pretty fun then (if you don't mind the extremely low poly environment), but I can't be sure yet.

I know I have a 56k and all, but when I see 160 ping to the server (about the best possible to me) and I spend the first 2 minutes or so (not an exaggeration, atleast in the Nod base) trying to get out of the base due to teleporting and lag freezing, and when vehicles are randomnly knocked (as opposed to teleported, but just as annoying) across 1/4 of the map, with massive clipping errors resulting to boot...I'd say the game needs a bit of work.

Perhaps the final retail will be much better, but that would make the demo a disaster as it has pretty firmly steered me away from the game.
 
When the demo was first released, it lagged like hell, and that is with a 1MB DSL connection, however, they released a patch for the demo, and it was smooth as a baby's butt after that.

The only thing I've ever used is the 1.07 patched demo..I shudder to imagine how much worse it was before. I know there is a 1.014 for the retail, but I haven't spotted a patch later than 1.07 for the demo.
 
I bought Renegade tonight. My first impressions. Eww this game is ugly. Perhaps my Radeon 32 DDR can't take the graphics, or perhaps I need a driver update, cause the textures on the vehicle's and the gun your holding keeps going out of sync. They flash all the time. Hopefully this can be fixed cause it is fun to play, just a little anooying is all.

Mabey a driver issue because I have a 64mb DDR and it looks really nice.
 
Ugly is all I have to say. I can't even get over how bad the graphics are. My brother tried it and said the same thing. It may be semi-fun to play, but I just can't get beyond the graphics. This may have looked great 3 or 4 years ago, it just doesn't cut it now.
 
True, theres something there thats lacking, not sure what it is tho. MP can be good if you get the right people, and the right settings. YOu can get a few good attack patterns going.
