I sense you like elites. What's ironic is that there's a lot of elites as enemies in your maps.

That's what makes them so awesome. They pwn the player.

Working on an SP mod of Infinity where you play as an Elite and have Elites as allies.

Infinity? Good luck...

Its large, which is exactly the point.

DarkZealot, are you done?

Give him time. One week? You can't rush perfection, unless you are doing the project yourself.

Its TEAM work. That means we have to improve on it. If DarkZealot was doing the whole thing himself, it wouldn't be team work anymore, would it?

thats what you call a HOG

wat

Something tells me CMT's Ranger Elites would be sick in that map..

How so?

In Infinity, if you run across the giant walkways. Rangers would be extremely effective at mowing you down.

You play as an Elite. Rangerz are your allies. However, they usually get pwned when the Flood come rushing in from all 4 directions with sniper rifles and rocket launchers.

Oh god. n00b weapons. Why does no one use conventional weapons anymore?

Because Rangers can hardly get pwned by a bunch of Flood wielding plasma pistols...

Might as well throw in nuke launchers

It's common knowledge that the Flood are most dangerous with those types of weapons. Might as well give them some heavy weapons if you're gonna be using Ranger Elites.

Personally, I'd give them a mishmash of weapons, with heavy weapons here and there - and double or even triple the number of Flood with heavy weapons on Legendary. Like Bungie did.

Amp up the AR and give them those instead. You could also give the Flood PRs and increase their rate of fire.

Or, give them flamethrowers, and watch them cook themselves. Great fun!

Flamethrower= Useless against Rangers

I think he means the Flood, and if I'm mistaken then I retract this post.

Yeah, Flood with Rocket Launchers are offensive-wise the strongest enemy in Halo.. they aim well and have long range. Even Zealots are bad in comparison.

And their suicidal. Anyway, I've put up a new beta to celebrate MLK day and the inauguration of a new president. http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?lgamyz2dlvy
I tried to fix many of the issues, including the removal of the pelicans, the diversity of grunts, a longer ending. Most of these issues were fixed with criticism from L0d3x (did I spell your name right?), so a lot of help came from him.

The end was dodgy...all that happened was that the screen faded out when I got in the warthog. No attack on Blue base?

There's a prophet inside, I found out because you can still move when the screen fades out and if you press console, view returns, though frozen.

But an improvement. Make the brutes snipable :D

Err... It should have been an attack on Blue Base. Apparently I didn't set up the trigger volume correctly. Thanks for catching that. I'll fix it. In the meantime, try not to step there.

Mission Rio is on halt right now because of two things:

A. Lack of motivation to work on it
B. Midterms on Thursday, Friday, Monday (my birthday D:), and Tuesday

Well then, happy birthday :) . Also, I noticed that it moved from 9% to 10%. That's faster than my computer :O

Ummm....can you send whatever tags to me, DarkZealot? I can work on it in place of you.

Uhh... is there a layout or something? Because the rest of the team has nothing to do.

Poll: ODST or Spartan?

Spartan

Ok, time for a major update:

Mission Rio team division:
-DarkZealot should have AI tags done
-Gamma and I will do the main scripting and adding stuff in Sapien
-Mythril will help, and give awesome custom tags and stuff
-sierra 117 will help in scripting and testing
-fbi was for will test and add finishing touches

Speak up if you have any objections. I still need the basic layout from DZ. We'll just have to wait.....

To fans/viewers:
We promised a two-week release, but due to DarkZealot's tests and stuff, he's been busy, so don't expect a timing yet.What you can expect is custom cutscenes and dialogue, and Ai which drive Scarabs and Longswords.

good plan
i wil start my own singleplayer mod soon i wil first need to choose the right map(s)
was thinking about new mombasa or zanzibar

go into the sniper bullet damage effect tag and find "engineer skin" and set the damage from.. i think its 0.2 to 1.

Hey, who said I wasn't busy? Jk. I'm not. Just get me the stuff, and I'll have it done soon.

What?

Anyway, can you send me the scarab AI tags?

Yea... I still need results for Spartan / ODST. Once it's completed, then I can move on to the final version. So, ODST or Spartan?

Spartan 1
ODST 0

Spartan....but not the origonal cyborg...
