After seein those sceenies im due for a change of boxers <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
One Question about the ... let me see ... first pic: There are two marines (one at the left corner and one in the middle), both have a HMG, I think. But the w_models differ from each other. The one on the left side has longer barrels than the other. I thought that they mentioned in one changelog that changing models due to upgrades (acurracy, I suppose) are not visible? So can any dev/pt explain this? But if the changing models are in: GREAT work !!
[edit]Just saw that the model in the middle looks like the old HMG or otherwise... Any Correction?[/edit]
I think the marine in the middle is carrying a Granade Launcher. Its an old Version of the HMG so it look a bit similar to the new one. I'm not a PT but i'm pretty sure on this.
BTW: VERY NICE PICS !!! Can't wait to : <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/asrifle.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='::asrifle::'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::onos::--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tiny.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='::onos::'><!--endemo-->
Paladin is entirely correct. PacMan is carrying a grenade launcher, whereas the marine behind him is carrying an HMG. But no, I don't believe that the models are changed when the weapons are upgraded. That would be a decent increase in file size for a pretty small gain, and in any case, all marine receive the weapon upgrades the instant that research is completed, so it would be impossible to see one marine toting a better weapon than a squadmate in a screenshot.
I was pimping these screen shots out to some of the other CoFR waiting for the game to come out and one said "Holy Crap! No way that is the HL engine."
Meant to post this last night but my internet went down till this afternoon so I just copied it to a document. here you go...
Origional Post:
Couple of kinda funny things I thought to mention: 1. In pic #4 the marine looks like he is holding the head of a turret in his hands. 2. In pic #5 what the heck is the marine in the far back doing?? 3. Why is someones name (1)NSPlayer on screenshot #11? Did someone forget to change their name after a new build? Or has something horribly evil happened? 4. Pic #7 what the heck is in the top left behind the offensive chamber?
Omg. <!--emo&:0--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo--> /me falls over and starts having convulsions
nice but i coudln't really tell what color the models skin was. Do any of these pics contain a pic of the black model? i'm just curious as too what it looks like. And you don't really see much alien in there..is that on purpose? to keep us in suspense ?
There are no words that can explain the awe I felt when I finished glaring at those pics. The best screenshots from any game I've seen in such a long time. It's amazing. We have a lot of thanking to do for those generous Devs! PT's too for findin all the bugs!
So this is the final build before the final release and should be the final post about the RC's on this final hour of 12 on the final day of my school quarter and the final day of finals? Finally...
...however..is it just me or does the help window thing in Screenshot #11 become slightly unreadable beacuse of it overlapping the upgrade sprites (or whatever they are called)?
Maybe for its release the help box should be nuged a bit down and to the left?
..or maybe not...lol..err..on second thought..never mind
/me hides from flames of delaying NS release a little longer
In this picture I zommed in on his right foot and its like not there, I dont know if this was because he had a jetpack or something but it was kinda strange.
