Idea For Enhanced Sight

NegaBenji

Sorry if somebody already came up with this... but how about giving aliens with enhanced sight the ability to switch their view to that kind of fish-eye lens effect, where you're able to see around a wider angle? I know there's a command in HL to set this, so it should be pretty easy to implement. It could be very useful for skulks attacking marine structures, when the sound of biting tends to obscure the sound of their approach - keeping the glow effect of course, since the warped view would make identification of moving things a little difficult.

try this in the ideas&suggestions forum, mate.

Sounds like a good idea to me... It will actually makes 'advanced hive sight' usefull... But maybe it's because I don't really understand the alien 'flashlight' button <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

That's the kind of thinking I like to hear!

the same was the building sound sounds very much like the click-clack of a skulk, only after playing lots do you see how well balanced this game really is.

and yeah, this should be moved <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Heh, my last post was actually directed at the guy who mentioned the other forum - I made another post, am I supposed to delete this one?
