    I was about to coment that that plant was already in NS in the Origin biodome. But then I read what you wrote. The cat pack sorta looks like a combination of the medpack and the ammopack.

    Think stim pack from starcraft. It takes some health away to make the marine fire faster.

    Edit (From changelog):

    O Added "catalysts" to marine tech tree!
    -- o Research at arms lab, allows dropping of "cat-packs".
    -- o A marine that touches pack, gives +25% movmement speed and +25% rate of fire for 8 seconds. The marine also takes damage equal to 25% of his max health, but it will never kill him.

    Theres a easter egg where you can cut up some leaves, roll them up, and smoke them. That's what it's for.

    And what's wrong with it feeling like StarCraft. StarCraft is a great game and you can already see a lot of StarCraft influences in NS. Ever look at the Commander's Interface? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I was thinking more Jetpack and healthpack.

    yea starcraft was awesome (before broodwars came along ^^)
  • RyoOhkiRyoOhki Join Date: 2003-01-26 Member: 12789Members
    Broodwars owned and you know it.

    Vanilla starcraft had big balance issues. Broodwar smoothed all that out, plus adding in some unbelievably cool stuff.

    BW only made SC better... Medics were REALLY needed to keep those FireBats and Marines alive, and the valkyrie is just sweet for busting up clusters of Protoss Carriers. Devourer and the Lurker gave the Zerg what they were missing; heavy support units. the DT and Corsair rounded out the Protoss and other race's strategies very nicely (Terrans have to build turrets b/c Protoss might attack with DTs and build Valkyries to stop the corsairs, Zerg have to keep Hydralisks on the lookout for corsairs with overlords watching endlessly for DTs as well)

    if you want to bash addon packs, bash lord of destruction for Diablo 2... the skill changes altered what many people had done with their characters, even making them nigh improbable to play at the same level they had them at before the addon installation.
    [/off-topicness]

    i think the cat pack looks like a medpack on steroids. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Do you mean photoshop? Hard to read your post, but no it is not edited. I took that picture in HLMV(Half-Life Model Viewer) and changed it to a JPG. Might look a tinny tad bit better in game, thats about it.

    Well, it's teh plant.

    Other than that... not much. Though, like DiscoMonkey said, I bet you could smoke that thing and see some weird ****...

    We all know Total Annihilation is better than SC.

    Do marines get to select if they want to use a cat pack? I seem lameness when command spams them and drops marines health down to 1.

    not photoshop, <a href='http://www.swissquake.ch/chumbalum-soft/hlmv/index.html' target='_blank'>Half-Life Model Viewer</a>, very handy utility. i use it all the time. it lets you access .pak files as well. it lets you re-texture models, but not change the shape.

    There are far worse thing a "llamah commando" can do. But you can't pick up another catpack while it's in effect.
