Energy? Or Health?

And that wouldn't replace the Shield meter in any way. Unless it doesn't recharge...

I'm talking about health, more of it.

So I give you more health... and take down the shield...

Hmmmm....I'm working on d20's hangar, and I need some ideas. Anyone?

hangar? let a pelican crash in and flood crawling out xD

d20 Update:

This video is of random gameplay footage (not always in order). I aplogise for the lack of music at a certain bit, and the weird Elite Wraith anims.

Also, I used deathless at a certain part (guess which). Sorry.

Also, watch this in HIGH QUALITY.

Take note that nothing is final, some of these things might not even be in the mod at all. This is jus a compilation to show what I've done so far. Flood player biped and Fp will be fixed.

Ok.

Before I say anything else, get rid of those Flood with Rocket Laucnhers, by the looks of it they killed you more times than the enemy did.

Over-all I liked it, needs a bit more AI in certain scenes, more scenery placement for cover. Those Flood with flamethrowers are pointless, just dump them and replace them with flood with snipers, that should be interesting to say the least.

I'm gonna upload some of the files that are global for all FC maps. And I'll send the link to you in a pm Polamee.

Over-all, Good job, just needs improvement.

One more thing, that wraith battle, dont give the player the option to get in the wraith. And when he enters the hanger, theres already a massive flood vs covie battle going and the Covenant has the wraith. Though thats my idea. What do you guys think?

I think you should have more allies.

That's the muster bay, not the hangar....

First of all: Have more Allies :P

Not more combat forms, just infection forms.

Also, i see you're grunts have halo 1 style, i have perfect halo 3 grunts if you want to. if interested just mail xD.

Also have Councillors and honor guards, wich might be usefull to come up with new ideas.

just mail me if you need anything xD

i dont agree with you.

flood rocketers are more of a front line soliders, along with the flame thrower floods. you should stay behind them, assisting with grenades or sniping between the lines. sniper floods are better in guarding positions.

This isn't Command & Conquer or some other RTS game, this is Halo, a FPS game wich you just move around with a squad, i'd say just make some packs and place em here and there, play it a couple of times and see how it works out. Making tactics doesn't make much sense, as it's up to the player to let them win or lose, not how they are placed

Flood rocketeers are front line troops, yes, but game-play wise, as allies they're a pain in the arse, and get in the way.

When replacing the flood flamethrower units with snipers it makes sense as the flood were behind cover trying to shoot at enemies. Also, flood status depending on weapon is different, for example a marine with a sniper will stay back from the heat of battle, all flod units engage in front-line combat, as they prefer melee attacks.

And no, we dont need Councilors or anything, we'll be making the AI varients ourselves if we even decide to include any new Covenant ones.

@BP: Agreed.

@Polamee: Yes, I meant the muster bay.

it wont make sense in the campign to kill flood swarms with a sniper rifle.

every kind of weapon has a "general job" for it. you wont put floods in sniping positions with flamethrowers, nor floods with sniper rifles in close combat. you just need to place them correctly.



thats exacly what i meant.
Edited by black doom on Feb 23, 2009 at 01:40 PM

The bolded is where I disagree because, like I said, Flood do not care which weapon they are using, they will just charge on attack anyway. Give a Flood a sniper rifle and he'll beat you to death with it, simple as.

Okay, dont be mad.

Yet a good job on the elites, they are awsome :P

@Eijsvogel: Hate to bust your bubble there bud, but Elites aint final.

which is why i disagree with floods with sniper rifles. it was an example.

red is the thing that confused me.
Edited by black doom on Feb 23, 2009 at 01:58 PM

What the? they are already so damn detailed :P

it wont bust the bubble, it will make it bigger becuse it will make them even better then before :p

He just want to burst my bubble because Councillors own his ass.

(this makes no sense.. right?)

Right, but needless to say, they 'are' effective.



Yes, because they are the H2 elites.

They look even better then H3 elites now, lol.

In halo wars they have such elites xD

You havn't seen the halo 3 elites i guess

I have halo 3 :P

hmm, well, in model, whats abit infront of this topic, the elites look very nice.

but as i saw ingame, they look abit different, but k, whatever

I don't have halo 3, but i do know halo 3 got a higher poly count because halo 1 just can't handle that
If the halo 2 elites look nicer, then it's because of the texture

NOTHING can beat CMT's elites though, i drop jaws and pants when i saw those ingame and on rendering =P

they look more like worms though (havent saw h2 or h3 elites)

Nvm, confused CMT's elites with yours.

lol.

If you examine the models of CMT you can see it's all in the textures, for what we know they could have even pimped up halo 1 elites =P ( I know they didn't, but the texture *dropjaws* )

Meh, if hunter models it and CMT textures it, we'd make a halo 4, wich is bad for bungie's pingping so we can't do that, it's a conspiracy set up by forerunners


Also, what do you guys think about my armored flood model i just made in 10 minutes? i was bored =P

Looks kind of strange :|

Have you guys figured out how the hell you're goin to do FP anims with that huge claw thing on the front of the floods arm??

Probably make the melée for all weapons swinging your tentacle-claw-thing back and forth.

Rig them as normal arms and use the pieces of strings that's probably pieces of bo's brain as decoration.

a quick rig of the arms just for you =P
