Popular Post Killing_You Posted May 29, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Hello, and welcome to yet another development update from the Ground Zero team! It's been a little while, but we do have some stuff for you! LauncherYou may have noticed that Ground Zero has made an appearance on the launcher. Yes, we got some things sorted over the past week, and can now start testing on a regular basis. Development is on the verge of kicking into high gear, and this is part of the process! Asset CollectionFor those of you paying attention to Discord a few days ago, Synaesthesia AKA The Artist Formerly Known As Aircraftkiller shared a bunch of source files for Tiberian Dawn buildings he had made in the past. This is going to give us quite the leg up in development. Unfortunately, they're not *quite* ready to show off just yet, but as soon as they are, you'll see them here! GDI BarracksEven before this happened, however, @Ice took the liberty of starting on a new GDI Barracks! Even at this early stage, this is a good indicator of the art direction that GZ is taking; drawing inspiration from multiple sources (the original game, the remasters, real life equivalents, etc...) to bring the best blend of realism and C&C accuracy possible. IconAnd that's not all! @CCHyper has generously crafted an icon for us to use! This will show up on the GZ tab on the launcher, and I have to say, it looks amazing! ConclusionThat's all we have today, but fret not- development on GZ is beginning to ramp up, and we'll have more stuff coming your way! Until then, have a good one! [blurb]You may have noticed Ground Zero on the launcher recently! Well, we've got some news to go along with it![/blurb] 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raap Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 It was very nice of Synaesthasia to share those relics with you. Hopefully you guys can use them as a foundation for testing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rulue Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 We already have vanilla Renegade which sets in TD era and based on it, isn't it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there's a ton of stylistic, technological, and unit differences between TD and Renegade. This is especially true with the infantry. So I tend to think of Renegade as its own standalone thing, set between TD and TS. Plus, there's nothing stopping us from making our own game, especially since we're taking it in a different direction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade was, at best, only loosely based on TD but with an entirely inferior different art style, and featured a ton of technologies and weapons/units which were never (visibly) present in TD. Personally I consider Renegade to be akin to a children's cartoon portrayal of the First Tiberium War. Ground Zero, on the other hand, is going to follow TD much more closely, both in style and in weapon/unit composition. In addition, the gameplay is also going to be entirely different; In contrast with Renegade's extremely arcadey gameplay, Ground Zero is going in the complete opposite direction, with the goal of ultimately becoming the closest thing to a MilSim or tactical shooter ever made on the W3D engine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NodGuy Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Sweet. Sweeeet! I’m so excited for this. It’s what Renegade should’ve been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanille Renegade takes place just after TD, iirc. The mutant experiments Nod performs are a lead-in to the second tiberium war. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mix of both, leaning towards the first. A good chunk of stuff we see in the campaign is "experimental" (stuff like the laser chaingun), and a lot of the story deals with Nod's research divisions, so make of that what you will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
