i still cant see how you could strategically use the C4 or tactical bomb...

but i can think ok many ways to use that star-fox bomb thing....

BTW... if it does make it as a weapon (will it?) then you should have it so it always shoots up...

lol what if it shot off sideways?

shoots up
rain of bombs come down in a 50 FT radius or so
if you get hit your dead...

in other words you could:
"drop it and run"
sort of like nukes but this couldn't be "noobed" as much because there would be about 2 of them on the map at a time (probably would respawn after a minute)

i remember seeing this in seige and it helped me out a lot in CTF...

have little tunnels that people can crouch in and hide... (somehow invinicble to high explosives?) so you can be more sneaky..

i like being able to find cover that helps more than just a rock...

....they are there?

1- egg... if you are having particularly annoying issues, pawn the problem off on someone helping you
2- c4s are good if you are a professional skydiver and can nail a flying vehicle[LS or something slow] with one... they also work for a bit of terrorism[like if you stalk someone close enough that you can stick their vehicle with one, or them, or like the tactical bomb and i; drop it just before you die so you still get the kill]
3- egg is trying to lower the scenery amount[ie- less trees, less rocks] but he is trying to work out the fog thing... it may give some ground forces a bit of cover... anyone know how to help him?
4- bsp editing... the main problem with caves is you get some noobs camping the things[either they are using them to camp from... or they are camping someone in them] + there is still the issue of managing to get vehicles outside of the bsp which = lag, exceptions and sometimes glitch killling[sneaking around outside of the bsp to get kills from below without being seen]

i like the star fox thing i liked it when me and my bro wear playing i got on his arewing planted it and RAN i lived he died OHH I JUST GOT A IDEA a sparkler idk i just want to see it light up lol and halo messed up -_-

Skydiving huh?...for SOME reason... I C4 a jet... when its about to blow up... the C4 stays in mid-air for like a second...(un-super-glues itself from the jet) and blows up behind it...
i know its something to do with the C4 blowing up animation or something.. but can it be fixed?
whats his fog problem?... lol
and i though Halo can't render effects outside of the "map"... so how can ppl kill from under

what i always do is:
find my wolfen...
plant one on one of the side wings...
quickly fly over my cousin (on foot) (explodes above him)
fly out...

works best one Corneria..

and what i find funny is sometimes ill jump on the wing of his arwing... and he'll fly off with me still on....

also i get out of my wolfen in mid-air and end up on the front of it... get out a sniper heh
(best on Fichina)

ANYWAYS... back on-topic so about Extinction 2

That thing sounds like a nuke but with a different effect.

No nukes.

Longsword shoots missiles secondary and chain gun primary.

it does sometimes have that issue... but thats only because the c4 doesnt "stick" to the jet collision geometry properly... Yes it can be fixed... no i will not remodel the dang thing for proper usage ^_^

the fog problem being the fact that if ground fog is too thick but ground forces can look up through it; you have a camping issue... if its too thin, its useless for cover[personally i think we should adjust the color and dsipersal time of the bullets contrail for all weapons so if you can't see your target, shoot where the funny color is pointing]

its not supposed to but it does... thus the origional issue of people managing to get a pelican outside of the bsp and unload on someone...[btw... you can fire outside of the bsp... its just very hard to render a bullet's damage efect when its fired outside the bsp limits... in other words... you can sometimes get the kill, its just easier to sneak up under someone and unload on them ^_^

What I meant was, no nukes on the longsword.

What about that Carpet Bombing idea? Did it work? It sounds pretty interesting...

I'll see what i can do. It does sound good.

carpet bombing or the Star fox thingy?...

or are they almost the same thing

Star Fox= Nuke but made by a 100 grenades.
Carpet bombing= 100 grenades in a strip of doom.

Start Fox= not nuke... many nades spread out
Carpet bombing= wtf?

Yay my carpet bombing idea, Carpet bombing FTW

What if there was a vehicle teleport for the covie vehicles at covie base to let them get up on the cliff?

ok sounds good

star fox thing or carpet bomb?

i remember at the red flag in extinction there was a teleporter nearby that took you to a room
with a hole and from there, there was a tele up to those bridges on the left side(from humans base P.O.V.)

humans got around quick and covie not so...

so maybe try to make it so the covie can have faster manuveribility

And make a tele to get off those bridges, and the Phantom should be much stronger, so it equals the Pelican.

does the phantom have a secondary gun?

Not yet...wait, doesn't it-? Needz to test.

chill dude lol; it isn't even entirely up to use anyway. Also you could have both if that could help this decision

No, because thats stupid.

explain why you THINK its stupid...
your opinion isn't always fact

i spent last night playing the game and i made a model that looks exactly like it (cept 1 small detail)...
and the bombing effects wont be hard to do.... heck i would do them
its just about.... 100 gernade effects...

this might take a while

thats why its stuipid

i'd still make it!...

but lol yeah its gonna take a while

The bridge isn't connected properly to the BSP. Ender probably modelled it separate and stuck it in...

I either have to merge it to the current BSP, make it a .scenery, or something else, forgot...

Could you make a kamakaze nuke jet-thing? That would make me lmao.lol.jk.

How about you Put an invisible bridge around current in which it's a scenery on it's own. ?

Probably would not work.

you should merge it, i think that would be best...

1- merging the bsp would be best[unless you have too many polys that you havent told us about]
2- one hundred nade effects won't cause an exception... ive tossed together a nade spawning nade which explodes, spawning more nades which explode and.... you get the point... it didn't cause an exception until no one could spawn without dying immidiately
3- having both carpet bombs and the starfox thing would be kind of dumb... possible but pointless[only targets under you would die=not balanced or defendable
4- nice banshee... too many polys... there are ways of getting high poly objects into maps without lag but that requires a lot of scripting
