The Turret Factory

V_MAN

<div class="IPBDescription">Looks stupid :P</div> The TF basically is some sort of control station that controls the turrets within a certain area. Come on though I mean it looks like a tractor with no wheels lol if this is the far flung future then shouldn't it be some sort of computer station rather than a wheel-less tractor with a few pistons on each side.

Private_Coleman

you actually think any of the buildings look good anyway?

and shouldnt this go in suggestions forum?

besides, i couldnt imagine just a ENIAC looking computer thing. Also, since no ones been to the future, you wouldnt know what they use as a tf. It might be a tractor with no wheels, but you have no proof that they shouldnt use this because its unrealistic.

BTW this (^) isnt bagging you out.

the dev team are very sorry and shall delay 1.1 so that they can re-model the Turret Factory so it looks more realistic for you.. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

ive been to the future but thats another story... but i kinda agree it does look weired but u can change it now im too used to it

Almost all of the Marine buildings unfold or unpack themselves when they are built. The TF is kinda stupid looking to me too. It doesnt follow the theme of the marines.

The turret would probably control itself like sentires that exist today but for balancing issues there is a need for a TF in NS, I just think it should look more streamline and colourful.

its a turret FACTORY, I guess it meens it produces the turrets (or the nanites for it) should be big and bulky... like all other factorys

I think that anyone who thinks the TF is ugly should simply convince someone in the models forum to make a new one.
I don't think it needs any changes, [CREATIVE LICENCE]after all it IS just a big battery isn't it?[/CREATIVE LICENCE]

Atom

whats with the pistons down the side ? i think its stupid it makes it look more mechanical than electrical and in the future i would expect electrical

No you fool I was thinking on the lines of how the prot lab or the arms lab.

What's with the attitude btw?

Atom

is it just me that thinks v-mans avatar sux ? let me know plz =]

Mercior

I quite like the idea of a rainbow, the structures name could then be changed to "Magical, Turret-Producing Rainbow" <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

G-ZeuZ I'm gonna slap you stupid on irc in a sec.

I think it looks fine... The boxy, piston like features make it really seem like a "factory", fitting the name very well, imo. And I always kinda thought that the TF channeled nanites or whatever that manifested themselves as bullets in the turrets and that was how the turrets didn't need to be filled with ammo as well as need a TF to fire. What was the real story behind the TF I wonder now?

I have seen NS out of my own eyes. It's true I dreamt my school was a NS map D:

ns_highschool :/

edit: ok I'd like to just add that it's not just dreaming it was an NS map, but I was an active soldier on that map. I remember saying *omg they welded the class shut*
weird because I was marine but who cares dreams never make sense <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

The current turret factory doesnt offer a reasonable explanation as to where the turrets come from, i mean they just appear by magic! so I suggest that a more magical object, such as a rainbow should be used. The story could be that the TSA discovered how to harness the power of rainbows and turn that energy into turrets! it is the magical rainbow-filled energy which keeps the turrets online, too.

Look I even drew a picture
