    You didn't need to go through this trouble because he showed the whole minimap at 1:46 of the youtube video. :P

    I hope some of those names are temporary, because Lab 1 and Lab 2 are bound to be confused :)

    Must of watched the video 3 times, how I didn't see that I don't even.
    I hope Fern Gully stays.

    Will the Fern Gully location feature a blonde australian man and a girl with wings?

    All those things are actually in the map, Hugh just didnt want to show it yet since that fairy surfing the leaf is still in his alpha stages.

    If you watch the video, there's a working decal system in! Nice one!

    Look behind the map, and you can see a G. What is that for? To pick up a gun? I have not seen that before. The gun looks new

    I was thinking that when we were playing it, actually. Alpha and Beta, maybe?

    Also, just to re-re-re-emphasize: this is from a super early build of the map (and I'm surprised Hugh decided to show it at all).

    Decals looks great. But man I hope Hugh does not get in trouble.

    That's Hugh's hotkey for "activate item". The item he is activating is just a plain old armory. :P

    Why would he? We are actually excited about these developments.

    thanks i try to find it in youtube with "ns2" "natural selection 2" and didnt find it. the babblers jumping looks funny at minute 2:43
  • XariusXarius Join Date: 2003-12-21 Member: 24630Members, Reinforced - Supporter
    I saw babblers!

    But yea, definitely looking forward to biodome, and descent, and all kinds of other new stuff they may have in store for us after that. I really really really hope UWE's business model pays off, allowing them to continue development on this game for many years to come, they deserve it and the game has huge potential.

    I can't wait to see where this map goes. It had some very unique architecture going on.

    decals - I see decals in the video!

    Looks a bit res-heavy for the marine team (assuming reception is a set marine spawn). They are sitting on a natural 5 res without even taking a second chair. That and the very restricted access to the marine base make this likely to be an extremely marine sided map. It also looks fairly easy to set up arcs in a defensible spot on any possible hive location. Hopefully the biosphere platform tech point is far enough away from stir tanks, otherwise arcs will be a serious problem for this map.

    Blood decals too it seems. I thought UWE didn't want to go full horror. :)

    They aren't all that bad, just a splotch of green blood here and a splat of red blood there ;)

    Its actually rather minor when you play it on a real map. Both the bullet holes and blood simply add a bit of character to the battle scene. It looks rather awesome actually.

    I'm not complaining. :) From what I've seen, it's a very nice addition indeed.

    All the tech points look very very compact. Look at reception:

    Chair
    2 IP
    2 Arms Labs?
    1 Extractor
    1 Observatory
    1 Phase Gate
    1 Armoury

    And everything is basically on top of each-other. Gorges are going to be salivating! :P

    Obviously I'm probably wrong since I've never played it. :)
    Any new map is going to be awesome though and I'm excited for the new updates coming.

    If they could get to it anyway. Those long angled hallways and no back access make ninja gorging practically impossible. That and a single Obs by the power node covers the entire approach and most of junction tree tube and lab 1. Its sort of like viel, but with even tighter access that's covered entirely by the obs and the power node isn't accessible from either door.

    is it me, or does the res nodes look different, is it art change for biodome, higher res? I don't know
