About coding you are right. Its tru that Renregade was an experiment which led to new world of shooters. EA outdid theirself with Bad Company 2, what a game, im thinking of installing it again. Might be just me or few others, but i believe thers some hope inside for Renegade 2. I feel like EA/old Westwood member swill bring it back with frosbite.
Another thing is that building could collapse at oroginal renegade. Me , Comancheiv, WnxServer agreed that Buildings could use basement after being collapsed. Would work just fine
