Thanks for the memories of the good old days. Summer '02...

Newb: WHEN IS NS GOING TO COME OUT?
Everyone Else: When its done.
Newb: OK BUT WHEN DO U THINK THAT IS?
Everyone Else: Don't speculate!
Newb: OK BUT IF YOU HAD TO GUESS...
*BAM*
Merkaba's shotgun from "Tales from the Frontlines" puts Newb out of his misery.

Sniff.... Thems was the day.

THAU · June 2003

PR man is quite a step away from designing Big-client server solutions <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

PR is an unappreciated job - but generally one of the most important on ANY project. I think you've done a great job - and yes the NS trailer was awesome. Gave that 'Aliens' feel that captured the game very nicely.

Hida_Tsuzua · June 2003

The million dollar question is that a photo of a new HMG or GL model? My bet's on the HMG based on its shape, but a gl model is needed....

Pulse · June 2003

It has a few suspicious looking cylindrical things instead of a clip, you know, the ones that you might find <i>grenades</i> in...

Well, consider that the blurry pic has a 4 rotating chambers and the grenade launcher clip got lowered from 6 to 4 for "new artwork (stated in changelog), I think you can draw conclusions <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Sirus · June 2003

Every weapon almost needs a new model.

LMG, HMG, and GL

I think the HMG looks great. The GL is being replaced, and the LMG just needs some tweaking (scope, etc.).

Mastodon · June 2003

I liked the bit where MonsE harkened back to the days of yore, speaking of 'designer-programmers'. Proves how old school is still holding it down.

Sirus · June 2003

HMG is wrong though, it has 2 barrels even though it only fires one at a time. Apparently, according to BM, they weren't all done in time, and some were placeholders somewhat. The GL used to be the HMG I think.

Yes, because the text for the smiley is asrifle (assault rifle), and it's a grenade launcher.

Thanks for the link. Passed another minute waiting for 1.1 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

What struck me hard, however was that NS was spelled wrong!!111 "Natural<b><span style='color:red'>-</span></b>Selection"

Xzilen · June 2003

Great job with the interview bro, my AIM is down right now or else I would tell you there :-p

MonsieurEvil · June 2003

Arg... so many typos in my response. How embarrassing. Thanks for all the great replies guys, and thanks to Seph for the writeup.

And Mastodon - your response was dope, you feelin' me, yo? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

That picture is (<b>most definitely, you heard it confirmed here first</b>) the new Grenade Launcher. It is currently being animated by Def_One and is going to rock the Kharaa's world. Get up in that muh.

Maus · June 2003

* Maus feels like pointing out again that from the moment he saw it he said it was the GL, but no-one believed him

* Maus sits looking smug

MEShootHere · June 2003

This should be on there, our lives wouldnt be the same without good ol' MonsE

Thansal · June 2003

Main thing that's wrong with the HMG is its size. It has that "hey where's that big gun going with that little guy" look <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'> Those HMG users (especially light armour) look like they should fall on their face due to the weight.
