    The will is strong But sense have I non.... Bim"waitnformorefactsfromaltar"bo
  2. Yea it would be absolutly great to hear something specivic! As for the scripting language: I don't know wether we need one when you at Altar didn't need it... Bimbo
  3. Yes if they cut out production that much that you maybe just need a production base or two than it would be clearly unimportend what I mentioned above. But why should you include production that smalish? It could be dropped without any losses. And you could simply say: "The scientists who developed this weapon just heapened to produce seven prototypes..." (that should be "unlimited" for all battles, since you can only go with seven troopers) @Vet: Jupp, that would add some more global strategy to the game since your choise of base-types are more importend.

  4. I recently thought about the concept Altar has choosen for the production of our own researched weapons. In short we would produce only one set of them, wich means like researching a project once we just build the weapons once to then have an unlimited suply. My consideration was if I got my favorite weapon ready why should I keep this production bases any longer? They are useless for me since Im equiped from now. So there are two alternatives: 1. We can change the purposes of the locations. Then suddenly I have lots of military installations... poor aliens! Sees like they are busted now (since I herad (on Freelancer I think...) this kind defends it self ). Or Im busted when I try to put some bases to research/production. 2. We have a fixed base type. Then the base remains unused and adds dust. And further mor must be defended by my troops, wich should have to rescue earth instead... My wish is that Altar keeps us using this bases so that the game doesn't become unbalanced and the bases doesn't become crap. Bimbo
  5. I would call it the "Earth Liberation Force" (ELF). I think it sounds more "military" than this bird thingy... Bimbo
  6. I also would prefer a colourfull video istead of green blips. But it would be nice if they are not perrendered cause you know the end of the battle when you have recognized the first few frames of a clip... Bimbo

    no, cause then the weapons are fully out dated.... Bimbo
  8. But I think the mind control was a funny and interessning thing. I allways loved to have men with whom I could do what I want without worieing about "live" . In fact all I had to worry was to ensure theyr death in the next turn (prime grenade to 0, and then let them "fight", hehehe...) Bimbo

    I like the idea of fitting it between TftD and Apocalypse! Well, to stay "realy on topic": I don't think this biomass is something like this starcraft "slime". It souds to me like a huge organic terraforming mashin, designed to etablish a alien biosphere at deserted earth. Maybe it would dissapear just two weaks after you wiped it from earth leaving a garden of eden (mabe it IS the geck from fallout 2 ). Bimbo
  10. At the moment we the topic is morale. And for the gamplay: since no one has seen some real action every thing exept the combat system is speculation. If you want to read something about it, follow the links in the recent news. Bimbo
  11. I think it does not matter wether they give us the SDK or just some scripts and editors, as long as they give us something to start (hacking JA2 was more fun than modding it to me). If we get the SDK modding would be complicated, cause I do not think that they would make their tools more userfrendly (its simply to expensive). That would result in some high quality modds. If we get special "user frendly but impotent" "modding tools" we would see many different mods, since it would be so easy to create them. And with high properpility there would be some very good mods as well... So, as log as we get something to work with there will be a fan-future of this game. Bimbo
  12. Hi all! I think soliders with high morale should shoot better but they could also have a slower reaction time. If the morale goes to panic they should walk more quickly (for fast redraw ) and have a much quicker reaction rate. Maybe in very high states of both they should have a JA2-psycho-like burst fire action. Imagine a man fiering a whole round in a alinen which would have died after 2 hits . Or o nother one fiering on each movement he sees. Bimbo For the records: my first post!
