Gameplay
Gameplay
Renegade X is a tactical shooter with elements from the original Command & Conquer. It boasts 64-player servers spread across two unique factions, the Global Defense Initiative and the Brotherhood of Nod, each with a different roster containing dozens of infantry classes with customizable equipment and 15 vehicles. Players can change class or order vehicles using credits, which are earned in a variety of ways. The aim is to destroy the opposing team's base while protecting your own, with each structure in the base having a specific purpose, and the loss of which detrimentally affects the owning team.
Development
Development
Totem Arts was formed as a volunteer team in 2006 by Waqas Iqbal (Havoc89), with the aim of remaking Command & Conquer: Renegade as a mod for Unreal Tournament 3. The mod was released in 2009 and received multiple awards. In 2010, Totem Arts decided to make a full standalone version and released a single-player mini-campaign called Operation Black Dawn in January 2012. The multiplayer beta was released in 2014.
