Updated first page. Beta testers expect the beta in 1-3 days.

PS: fixed the ZE error, had to undo a config.ini change that I had done a few weeks ago, Seemed to have solved the problem.

using an orbital strike in an underwater map sounds strange... but interesting I)

Post by **Penguin** » Sat Apr 21, 2007 7:21 am

It wouldn't make sense if an orbital bombardment of missiles didn't work underwater lol

What's the MRAT gunship? What heroes will be in it? What are the beasts going to be like? How can this map be any cooler? Lol. Underwater XL? That's going to be cool.

I hope its not some sort of grenade war. No offence to Astute but the grenade war underwater was crazy! I proprelled someone 6 feet with the grenade that sticks on his foot.

Marine Recon Assault Transport.

6 feet under water by a grenade? o.O I've edited all the push distances to be alot smaller since its underwater.

The way a grenade would behave underwater would be that the damage would be much, much higher, but the push much smaller. The damage radius would also be extremely large (liquids transmit force faster and with less drop-off).

To be honest, grenades would pretty much be a suicide weapon in any sort of underwater operation.

Yeah, grenades are probably stupid if used underwater. The blast of an underwater grenade could've killed everyone or disturbed the tetonic plates on any planet causing a quake or some sort...in real life

@Penguin
The grenade launch the unit 6 feet up, I saw him going up but never coming down....except its contents like ammo and bacta. XD

Did you replace the grenade smoke by bubbles? Since it's hard to make underwater smoke look realistic. Maybe an adjusted seismic charge would look cool as well.... maybe.

a seismic charge that throws up all the sand underwater :>

Seismic charge?! Won't that be a bit unrealistic?

Something is wrong here... Penguin is making a new map, and it's WIP-topic has not been filled with 20 pages of spam... Which of course is great.
Looks like an awesome map, could we get some new screenies? I want something to look at

lol, sure, after I fix a side problem, tried changing some hero related stuff and I killed my game lol

CamandoMichael · Post by **CamandoMichael** » Tue Apr 24, 2007 7:31 pm

Telling us EVERYTHING that's going on in the map is a nice feature. What will the CIS hero be? Grievous wirth goggles? Lol. I'm so anxious about knowing what the native beasts are and how many of them will be in Conquest and XL? What kind of weapons will the natives have?

Post by **Penguin** » Tue Apr 24, 2007 8:07 pm

CIS hero is undecided.

Update: woot, I successfully got someone to wield a double lightsabre and single lightsabre

Omgz. Penguin. That sounds so cool!

A person with a lightsaber staff and a single bladed saber? Or, has two sabers, but switch the weapon to just one saber?
