More reports on Tiberian Sun Reborn 2.0 have surfaced! Intel indicates the team has received assistance from an outside source, and additionally a view of alternate vehicle cameras, a new Nod building, and something else our agents have yet to decipher. Timeaua's Contributions Renowned fan mapper, Timeaua, has collaborated with the Reborn team and has provided his map source files for 2.0. His maps, if you are unfamiliar, were Tiber, Dam, and Omega City. Expect to see these maps updated and shipping out with release! We thank you for your maps and assets Timeaua! Alt Cameras Pushwall happened to find time outside of developing APB and brought alternate vehicle cameras over to Reborn. GDI Wolverine GDI Titan Nod Attack Buggy Nod Attack Bike Other vehicles may receive alternate cameras, although it is yet to be determined which if not all vehicles will receive this. Nod Repair Station In order to repair their vehicles, Nod has had to resort to assigning a soldier to man the Mobile Repair Vehicle. In order to free up manpower, Nod has designed a Repair Station that will be included in Nod bases across the globe. Concept image by Ice. Expect more updates on this and how it will fit into existing bases. Corrupted Data Regarding the last part of the intel we have received, it appears to be garbled. Our agents are attempting to unscramble this visual feed and see what information we can get out of this. Until it can be deciphered, this is all that we have. And that does it for this update! Tune in next time for more to come as we continue on the road to release!

[blurb]Expansive Civilian Warfare on W3D Hub! It's a popular standalone Renegade mod that offers lunacy, chaos, and fun for all! [/blurb] W3D HUB PROUDLY PRESENTS: Created by Blazea58, Jerad2142, Canadacdn, & Napalmic Expansive Civilian Warfare (or ECW) is a popular standalone Renegade mod that recently joined with W3DHub in 2015. Since then, it has been subjected to rigorous balance testing, polishing, script and map additions. What role might you play in the streets of San Casina and its surrounding areas?! WHAT IS EXPANSIVE CIVILIAN WARFARE? ECW was originally Roleplay2.mix, a popular map/mod for C&C Renegade that has since evolved into a standalone game which bares little in common with its predecessor, besides the physical map. Unlike RP2, ECW has been bestowed with improved frame rate, a myriad of new game modes, new areas to explore, jobs to level up, perks to unlock and houses to buy! What began as a merger of San Andreas to Renegade has since taken on an wholly unique identity of its own which is filled with lunacy run amok in a vibrant and living world. Whether you're an old returning player from EKT or NopWorks, or just a greenhorn, odds are you'll find something exciting or impressive to enjoy in ECW. There are jobs to work, disasters to survive, incredible vehicles to command, houses to buy and customize, as well as perks to discover. Whether it be fighting off giant spirit deer, buying and then defending your house from other ruthless players, or even seeking out a meager existence in your fishing trawler. You'll come to find that ECW has something for everyone! A massive, vibrant, open world that's 100,000 x 150,000 meters to explore. Weather effects that influence your character & gameplay at large, Watch out for tornadoes! Over 100 different weapons and items. Over 47 different player controllable vehicles which include: Tanks, Cars, Boats, Submarines, Helicopters, Jets, Mechanical Walkers, ICBM's, Aerospace vehicles, & Orbital Ion Cannons! Jobs: Fishing, Cashier, Train Conductor, Police Officer, Firefighter, Contractor, Truck Driver, Exotic Dancer, Drug Dealer, Professional Gambler, and more, for the player to make money. Frequent events & disasters from invasions, protests, convoys, or meteor showers & more! Smart AI that can drive vehicles, form teams, and decide if they like a player or not based on the players actions. Numerous factions roam the streets of San Casina, from the police, to mobsters and even militants! Numerous varieties of wildlife inhabit the map, some of which you can purchase and befriend as your pet! Houses that can be bought by the player, and customized to their liking. A cell phone system, which is the most useful item in ECW. It allows the transfer of money into the bank; the ability to "call" other players; the option to buy houses, vehicles, and weapons, trigger certain weapons, and many other things! An inventory system that the engine had previously never seen the likes of. When a player dies, they keep all of their weapons for their next life. Countless perks which can be discovered, unlocked or bought that have a profound effect on your play style. A Mutant Assault mode, Comet Buster minigame, or Deathmatch which comes with its own surprises and fun! And many more things that wouldn't fit on this list! HOW CAN I PLAY ECW? ECW will soon be available to the general public, and accessible through the W3DHub Launcher alongside other such favorites as Red Alert: A Path Beyond and Tiberian Sun: Reborn. Currently the release is being tested regularly by W3DHub testers and staff. If you are interested in helping us make this release of ECW the best it can be, apply to be a tester! HISTORY OF EXPANSIVE CIVILIAN WARFARE http://www.indiedb.com/games/rp2/news/rp2s-long-lost-and-completely-unbiased-history Written by former developer Napalmic, this detailed and long winded narrative provides a rather colorful explanation of the storied history of Roleplay 2; which eventually became the ECW we know today. Shortly after this, Roleplay 2 had a vote to change its name, which eventually became Expansive Civilian Warfare and was transformed from a relatively simple map to a standalone game. Since 2011, Jerad has completely changed the face of the mod and given it unforeseen amounts of substance. Blazea58 still contributes regularly with updates to the map. Recent additions include the industrial sector which features an interactive nuclear power plant, a church which plays a role in gameplay, and a pet store that allows you to purchase a cuddly and loyal friend. Word on the street is there are other additions being slowly worked on, one that may put San Casina onto the international scene instead of being some wholly unfortunate rust-belt town in the middle of the Great Lakes.
