Popular Post FRAYDO Posted July 31, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 We are so back. With the Tiberian Sun Anniversary coming up, discussions came up of polishing the current Tiberian Sun: Reborn experience to deliver a smooth, fun, more balanced game for the event's participants and before you know it, the development team collectively decided upon pushing through once again to 2.0! Where previous setbacks may have made this venture appear lost to the void, we can confidently stand behind this decision to go forward. You may be asking, "But FRAYDO, what makes this different from the last time? Will it actually work this time? Why now"? Rest easy, little Timmies, for I have the answers you seek! "What makes this different from the last time?" Originally, we strove to deliver the full, completed Reborn 2.0, which entailed many new changes, map additions, and updated game mechanics such as those seen in Red Alert: A Path Beyond, Battle For Dune: War of Assassins, and our other house projects. In light of those aforementioned setbacks and other disturbances, we can still promise to deliver TSR 2.0 as we fully intended as the end goal. While that will indeed remain the end goal for TSR 2.0, the objective we will meet for the upcoming anniversary event is delivering a playable open beta! You will get a working revamped experience of Reborn, which has been a long time coming! "Will it actually work this time?" 100%, and a resounding ABSOLUTELY at that! ChopBam, as you may know as our lead developer of Red Alert: A Path Beyond, is heading the charge on this. He is currently happy with the state of APB and is offering his full time and devotion to TSR 2.0, as is everyone else in the developmental front, such as OWA on Balance and Units, TeamWolf on Maps, CMDBob on Code, Killing_You on Audio, along with Ryknow69 and ICE on support, as well as our eager testers who will be quite busy with tasks such as trying out our latest Cyborg Reaper, navigating our new building layouts, and ensuring our scripts updates were implemented correctly through bug hunting. "Why now?" The Tiberian Sun Anniversary event lit the proverbial fire in our development channels. When Pyrocob from CnC Saga reached out to us, we were originally just set on choosing a day within the anniversary schedule for TSR. One thing led to another, and here we are announcing the Tiberian Sun: Reborn 2.0 Beta! I believe we all wanted to return to TSR 2.0 at some point, and this renewed motivation has given us the perfect opportunity to do just that! As activity will be ramping up on the developmental front for TSR 2.0, expect to see updates as they happen! Thank you for your time in reading this! Your support is what gets the ball rolling and keep it rolling! Spoiler TL;DR Tiberian Sun: Reborn 2.0 Beta coming soon! Also, read the whole thing! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orca234 Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 I never did get round to play this enough. Will be interesting to see an improved version. Should be good with APB developers working this. Having logged onto both APB and TSReborn within the last 2-3 months, APB definately seems higher quality; I like TSReborn more but APB seems more polished. Have you ever considered making a Co op single player mode for this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChopBam Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Thanks for your interest! Those are interesting points about APB and Reborn polish. 1 hour ago, orca234 said: Have you ever considered making a Co op single player mode for this? Single player modes may not work so well for our development environment as the time spent by our very small development team to build single player story, campaign, and missions would go towards people playing it once or twice and then being done. Co-op is a bit better as you can still get story and objectives out of a mission while retaining the replayability inherent to multiplayer games. I have ideas for a couple co-op maps but there is nothing set in stone and certainly no co-op mode planned for next week's release, unfortunately. But it wouldn't be too hard beyond that date to get something together like the co-op mode against bots on the regular MP maps we see on APB's server. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main reason I ask is because I always see the TSReborn server empty. No one seems to go on and it seem like such a waste of all those assets and georgeous maps. With a Co op or bots server there will be something going on and then 1 or 2 people might log on. Then usually when we see atleast 2-3 people logged on then more people join. There is a very active Co op server on Renegade (not sure if I'm allowed to mention other server names on these forums). Would it be possible to collaborate and push out some TSReborn and APB maps. The original Renegade assets get used again and again, but the TSReborn and APB models and stuff, which are higher quality, they don't seem to get used as much as they deserve. It brings me to another point for another topic, polishing original Renegade with improved models and textures. 7 hours ago, Jeod said: Co-op map featuring GDI (or Nod) defending or taking the Scrin ship please.

Bot support won't be far behind, and this can help keep the server active with lower player counts, similar to APB. 6 hours ago, orca234 said: The original Renegade assets get used again and again, but the TSReborn and APB models and stuff, which are higher quality, they don't seem to get used as much as they deserve.

Perhaps someone can do this, and in fact I've seen some things in the works lately that appear to be along these lines. 6 hours ago, orca234 said: You are serious about having this in the works? This was thought of quite a few years ago and we all want to see it happen, but nothing has been officially started on it. There are co-op maps in the works that are higher priority such as two dedicated co-op maps for APB that are works-in-progress. It's been a common idea that using official missions from the games is a great way to pool for co-op ideas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GibbletsnBits Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 On the fifth time the updater picked up where it left off, instead of restarting. It looks like it was Field or just before that. But now probably because I posted :P it finished and works. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
