All vehicles and simple base defenses are stealth too, including AI bots from the !support command.

TT 4.0 Update is Required

The Tiberian Technologies Update 4.0 for Renegade is required to play on the server.

It adds lots of extra's, anti-cheat and an ingame automatic map-downloader, awesome stuff!

We hope to see you all there, and enjoy!

Unban-Spree @ MPF

Since we finally got around to enabling the Anti-Cheat we decided to review our banlist.

A couple of hardcore offenders remain on our banlist forever-and-ever, they either break rules all the time and/or have a high level of insulting comments to MPF;

We feel we don't need those players in the server anymore at all.

To everyone else: Happy New Year and those that were banned are now unbanned.

Information & Rules

For a complete list of our server rules please visit this link.

Some advantage skins are not allowed on our server and we might ban you for using them, make sure you don't use them.

For a complete list of our Staff please review this website page.

Thanks

Thanks for choosing our server to play on and please do not cheat (anymore) and above all have fun of course.

Sounds interesting

 

Must give it a try! 

[!Wyld]

Outstanding!

[NXwolf]

This is new.  Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

[falcod]

Just tried it out.. i was sorely disappointed . I was expecting awesome basic infantry wars, since shotgunners and engineers could quickly run up to stuff and kill them, and those long range snipers wouldn't be as damn overpowered if short range troops could run up to them 5 times faster right? I was partially right... engies do pwn tanks, and you CAN fight snipers with shotgunners.. the normal snipers who aren't lagging/cheating anyway >_>.

 

Unfortunately, the super speed seems to give some snipers some really bad lag.. turning them into monster lag killing machines. I mean we're walking at 5 times the normal speed and dodging jumping crouching changing directions like mad monkeys etc yet these guys still never miss.. how is that even possible unless they are lagging and just see people walking in straight lines?! Thanks to that the games more or less became sniper server games, where the one guy with the stupidest lag amount just trashes the hell out of everyone else .

 

On a side note: there's also a serious balance issue with obby being useless while agt continues to work just fine.

 

So overall I'm glad it changed to stealth weekend.

[Guest Mauler]

the speed thing should only of been a slight mod not 5x lmao

[falcod]

hm? I did get MVP MDK... on dockside (the only speed game i was there for the full time). it just took me 60 deaths to do it >_> .

 

I agree that speed is fun but the lag killers ruin it >_>

[BiGcELLo]

Speed ended before Friday?

 

Was looking forward to it. Maybe revamp it a bit and try it again? Like 3x speed instead of 5?

[falcod]

wouldn't work as long as lag killers are around i'm afraid

 

how about firing speed instead of moving speed? is it possible to make everything fire twice as fast?

 

or bad aim weekend where every weapon gets huge aiming variance, so all that matters is strategy not "skill" *cough hardware*.

 

or bot army weekend where the use of !support is allowed every 30 seconds and turrets limit raised to 10

[!Hunter-Seeker]

lol bot weekend

[BiGcELLo]

Tanks weekend.  No purchasable infantry, only vehicles and beacons can be purchased 

[falcod]

No teches? we'd have severe repair problems, but sounds ok

On that note.... how about a super repair weekend? Boost the repair/disarm speed by like 5 times. (If necessary, create a new repair gun weapon with higher heal amount and make every character spawn with it.) That way even if there's a bunch of arties pointwhoring away on a building, you only need 1 hotwire to repair the building... also get to do fun stuff like quickly disarming lots of proxies to sneak into bases.. hehe.

Better to have double score weekend or triple score weekend. :3

[!Hunter-Seeker]

random tag weekend, where every player recieve a random tagicon after purchasing a character

Just give engineers the better repair gun 

[falcod]

red stealth ftw

lol... that's such an advantage skin

[NXwolf]

Actually, its harder to see on most maps for the enemy.

[Neijwiert]

Yeah lol, that skin contrast is much higher than the original one. I say advantage skin aswell.

[Guest Mauler]

It's allowed..

[falcod]

It's allowed..

 

allowed advantage skin is still an advantage skin... just an allowed one lol.

[!Hunter-Seeker]

falcod has triple score weekend every day

[falcod]

Its funny that you mention that, cause this server actually has a ~2.5x score setting on permanently, not just for a weekend.. normal arty hits do like 20 score on jelly, 50 here . And that's just the normal buildings... some of the buildings are so messed up that I've seen them give 100x score at times. It makes pointwhoring so.. so wonderful .

 

(that said, the guys getting the most "bonus" score %-wise isn't really the pointwhores, but the snipers.. since pointsfix is off.. 12 points for shooting a stank even though u do 5 damage . So don't start accusing me of points bug abuse here lol.)

[falcod]

Isn't that enough? A red skin sticks out far more than a white one most of the time, since many maps have plenty of white backgrounds (especially snowy maps, or day maps with white skies) which make the white skin sbh harder to see.  On the other hand red backgrounds are pretty rare, you need to have like power down inside a building or a nuke to turn the sky red. Thus red skin makes it easier to catch those stealth guys.

 

Granted if you made it purple it would be even better... since theres pretty much no such thing as a purple background in renegade.

 

well its pretty much the same as clear scope.. there's obviously an advantage to using it, but if its allowed then we just live with it lol.

[!Hunter-Seeker]

colored stealth skins do not expand the detection radius, but they are making the stealth unit much more decetible 

[NXwolf]

Not really.  Try the effect out.  You can't see them any more or less than the white skin, even in the snow.  The glare effects make it impossible to see, reguardless of color.  Also, it's a darker color, so when someone wlaks up to you, it's harder to see than a white skin unless it's a snow map.  Atleast in my view.
