an idea for the flood campaign

sometimes the hosts still had some sort of weak form of understanding

so maybe get soem voice actors to so that you cna make a marine say no i dont want to, i have to resist you, or ah no i cant move my body or get out of my body/head idk something like that

We need one voice actor, and that is for Gravemind. Any volunteers?



A good idea, but for the vehicles we want a bit of variation, but for SpV2 that is actually a good idea.



I dont think we'll use the heretic banshee's skin, but editing the original skin doesn't sound like a bad idea.



Note: All caps ftl.

I asked to be banned. I could get myself unbanned if I wanted to. Modacity is such a piss poor community though I have no reason to go back, and the only times I visit the forums anymore is if someone links me.

Small update: Changed one song around, and made progress on StKft (c40).

lol you think this community is better? I don't think so, only reason I joined one forum is because i was invited to do so, only reason for forums is that timezones are making things difficult for live chats.



Also, anyone that has played halo wars beta, are there any new flood units?

Also, can someone with h3 still get a halo 3 maskless grunt? before ya'll forget about that

Bawt teht r Halo tew...

Halo wars beta? the real game has been released? guess you mean somthing else :P

And yes, there are new flood units, There are flying guys now, thrasher forms which were hunters, and infected grunts, etc.

Yet they aren't very dangerous... they should make them more ''OH GOD! ITS THE FLOOD RUN!'' That they actually expand when they infect... but alright, that will come with first DLC I hope.

Thats Halo 2's Heretic Grunt.

NORLY?

I reused the original animation tag.

That's good, and why not? Flood shouldn't be using other animations for vehicles, keep it how it is, it's cleared up and I don't speak chinese, it's like ancient greek to me, owai- i speak ancient greek =P


OMG DIDN'T NOTICE THE H2 MODELZ /sarcasm

Anyways, anyone going to make a screenshot for me, or are we only getting google'd low res pics and crappy youtube links while the 360 players just tell how much they pwn in halo 3?

And, should we invite more custom models? I'm making a locust for personal use, but if someone can animate it for me, we can aswell put the locust in this campaign, aswell as make a floodified version of it

Yes..

nonono i don't mean it that blond lol,
I mean, the locust is in a unreleased RTS spinoff of the halo franchise, and never appeared in the novels or whatsoever, that's my point, should i make models, no matter how cool, that don't fit in the halo universe? as this is still part of a fight on installation 04, and on 04 they didn't brought along brutes because the covenant didn't trust them or so, that means, no floodified brutes since it's bull- and wouldn't be logical in whatsoever way

so, bringes me back to the blund question, Custom Totally New Models or not? (like, the locust)

Go ahead, but I don't know when you will have a proper use for them.

Cut the damn l33t talk. Get back on topic.

Also, I vote for more custom content, but, what I would like to know, is what the community would like to see, new bipeds e.t.c.

I think the locust could fix in great.

Its beam is somthing like an anti-flood thingy, wich could be used on a small scale.

An "anti-flood thingy" is perfect for a campaign where you play as the flood. What's next? Put in thousands of them?

It makes sense, really. Use an anti flood thing against flood. Of course the enemy would have them

Yes, and thousands of them against you would make you want to play the campaign?

I cant see any place where we could put the Locust in anyway, and I think that the Locust was considered obselete tech by the Covenant anyway.

Not thousands. A few
it would be equivalent of hunters, as hunters would not be so good against flood (wacking wouldn't do much anyway)

Who said thousends? Sentinals come in packs you can just handle, i suppose we could place the locusts in equally teamed packs =P

Also, little update on the carrier, since the lack of maskless grunts, i've made the mouth like a turtle







The red texuture will get a green tinted layer, still figuring out if the flood uses green or yellow tinted layers, so don't mind the colour, it will be green/yellow whatever the colour i'll find

For Chiefs sake, Turtles pwn

Could Also just be a sort of 'boss'

Just give the flood the neccesary prepares, like 1 or 2 rocket marines or somthing like that.

Why just 1 - 2 rocket marines? I was thinking in terms of Flood Wraiths...

Mweh, i dont think there will be much open-space fighting.

Yet i really hopeso, like if you look at the right, you see a whole line of flood attacking, then also see a whole army in a staggered line approuch, yes, that would be epic.

Yet in the levels like library i dont think a wraith would even fit there :S

How big are those supposed to be? If much bigger than a warthog, it'd be problematic like the scarab.

It's bigger than a warthog or.. atleast about the same size.

@ Everyone who posted in comment to BP's carrier form: He said he was gonna fix the textures, cant you guys read..........

Locust wont be in, for the last time. Other custom stuff will be, because, as bobbysoon said, it would be damn problematic to get it to work, and where the hell would we put it.

There will be large scale battles similar to Quarantine Zone in Halo2.

Yea, was thinking abouth the amount of work that should be put in the locust.
And even if you managed to get it work a little, it will most probably fail anyway;

I like the large scale idea, ALSO JUST CANT WAIT FOR THE INFECTING SCRIPT.

Hopefully the whole script will be told with a tut or somthing, because i want to use it so badly and i abouth never use scripts :S

@EijsVogel: When the mods released the infecting script will be released with it, along with a 'How to' tutorial.

@Destroyer: Fair enough, direct what you think is wrong with the model comments to BP, I'm sure he'll take aboard a few ideas or fixes you might have.

Its bigger than a Scorpion, smaller than a scarab.

Edit the grunts skin a little so it looks more floodified so it looks half absorbed. Give the model flood pimples like in Halo 3 also.
