i dont agree with u Snaf. While Spartans do use military manuvers they dont really need too, and it certanly isnt the case in multiplayer. it is really just a bunch of folks running and gunning in a freenzy, this is great if u are trying to do a UT2004 style game but games like the Rainbow Six 3 multiplayer. it is tatical and the teams are teams, not just guys who dont shoot at each other. it makes things more realistic (ok if there ever was such a thing in multiplayer) and in my book thinking when to shoot and not too is a lot better game than running and gunning (normaly)

yes, perhaps a sequal to last stand is in order then, since i do have the ODST biped, rigged (thanks to Xephon

), which i will NOT give out.

but yeh, i guess spartans really aren't all that tactial... oh my shields are down, i'll crouch behind this blown up car for 5 seconds... or shoot faster than him... lol!!

but for now, i like fast paced, blow shit up action.

Sieze control, or prevent use of gun towers.
Blow up a petrol tanker.
Control the freeway.
Utilize pelican drop capabilities.
Deploy spotters and Snipers.
BLOW SOME STUFF UP. THEN BLOW IT UP AGAIN. BLOW UP THE LIVING CRAP OUT OF IT. THEN BLOW IT UP SOME MORE.

well according to the books, spartans are tactical but this is the game and you cant hide in the dark, you cant use 30megaton tactical nukes and you cant use much stealth in halo1.

well seems like you're right on. point noted. lol.

Ya to bad, there is nothin like over kill (nuke + elite= BAM!)

I see what u mean Snaf everything u are placing in this map is tunring it tatical combat, because of all the options for u to do, it gets the job done.

Wow and ODST skin, im impressed

Hey, I got a question. Why WASN'T there hiding in darkness in Halo 2? From the programming perspective, I don't think it could have taken more than a week to implement. Simply set a "darkness" value in shadows, then restrict AI from noticing Entities within those areas. Then, you could hide in the shadows, wait for the elite to walk by, run up to him and BAM! he dead...

Seriously though, why wasn't hiding in shadows implemented in Halo 2?

alright, this is looking good. And an announcment:I need the buildings or whatever so I can run a radiosity or else there will be no ingame updates on what will work and what won't.

guys, i have a solution to the spartan not being tactical in multiplayer. Take away his shields

That was amazingly easy! Anyways, a sort of call of duty action in multiplayer is what we should be aiming for, although it is pretty much impossible in halo, the team could migrate to half-life 2. It's only an option.

Or just leave it the way it is. if the players want tactical, they can turn off shields in the custom gametypes option

ok guys im doing good, (Im at school now) but at my home my dad says by mid april (like the 15th or so) I'll be off grounding, all my grades are up too! So its been so long and so much to catch up on but for now I give CMDR temporary lead of the project for these 2 weeks, then after some good doing around the house i should be good to go. The only thing is ive lost everything on my cpu, all the programs, files and etc. it took me forever to collect everything so maybe i should just command and help design if i get my programs back in time, then great. but remember 1 thing I started this team and I'll never give up on my fellow teammates, Guys I havn't screwed up in 2 weeks! So hang in there yes the project should advance on but Ill catch up with snaf on aim and get it all planned out. Im almost back guys.
Thanks,
Ace

good to hear you're almost back. yeh, we'll catch up on AIM. the models of the trucks you did, you did fairly quickly, so hopefully you can get max back, and remodel those.

I bet you ace won't even mention a single word about my work in this project...

CMDR Reservoir · Post by **CMDR Reservoir** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 3:37 pm

Oh comon man. We've all seen your excellent, out-standing work on Last Stand. Ace just either hasn't seen it or doesn't feel like saying your a big help and would rather focus on Snaf, himself, and me. But dude. Those are ome kick ass structures..

The Spartan! · Post by **The Spartan!** » Thu Mar 31, 2005 10:10 pm

Well at least cmdr you still support me. Snaf, I still have the original copy of the trucks and explosive vehicles you and ace made etc etc. So you dont have to remodel them.
Thanks,
Elite Hunter
