Here's an idea if you're interested: Since the medics and rocket marines are now in teams, why not change the names to something more apt?
Combat Medic = Support Team
Rocket Marine = Rocket Team
And maybe touch up on some of the vanilla units.
Marine = Rifle Squad
Flamethrower = Hellbringers
And perhaps the same can be done for the Covenant units.
Grunt Squad (W/ Elite) = Grunt Lance
Grunt Squad (Only Grunts) = Grunt Levy
Jackal/Grunt Squad = Mixed Lance
No offence, dude. But have you even played or heard of Insurgency: Sandstorm? It's not on Source anymore, it's on Unreal, and the mod tools are more or less based around the Unreal Editor tool.
If the Sandstorm mod tools turn out to be pretty flexible, do you think the devs would consider using it for the remake? I've always wanted an Underhell remake to have that Insurgency feel.
I really am happy these guys are remaking the game, but I was hoping an official Underhell remake would come in the form of a total conversion mod for Insurgency Sandstorm if not it's own standalone game by New World
Ey, I've been trying to modify the position of the ironsights via the weapon scripts, but the problem is that they're all in a VPK. Is it viable to use the old 'Custom' folder trick or is there another way?
Now i'm hoping that when the SDK for Sandstorm comes out, we can make total conversion mods. Maybe a remake of Underhell would be on someone's list?
I'm not seeing the grunt tanks. I'm still getting wraiths.
I hope so too and I hope I get to be on the team one day.
He's busy working at New World Interactive producing a number of unannounced titles. He's a very busy guy. We just need to have patience and hope he still has the drive to continue this project.
Well, MXthe did imply remaking Underhell on a newer engine, so, yeah.
Patience, brothers, patience. I'm sure the mighty MXthe hasn't forgotten his flock.
Would LOVE to see this game become a mod for Insurgency: Sandstorm.
Do you guys have a discord we can use?
Seems to me that covenant mechs (save for the Goblin) are all named after insects. Again, going back to Scarabs and Locusts.
I just came up with an idea for a new name for the Mobile Shade. Why not the "Cicada"
Glad the flood are properly working now, but will the AI be receiving improvements along development? There are a few things that i feel could be improved such as the flood not utilizing assets like higher tiered stalk clusters ,building proto-graveminds, or using building pods. Not to mention, for the Flood, they aren't very aggressive. I'm on Heroic and they have built buildings and some forces but haven't attacked very often at all.
can I also suggest that instead of the Grunt Deacons setting down bombs, the Bomb grunts have that task? It just seems kind of redundant having two types of suicide grunts. Not to mention how effective the bombs will be when they've been upgraded.
UPDT: Okay, the flood are more active, but they still make UNSC buildings. Are those just placeholders while the AI is being worked on?
Did all that. Flood are still building UNSC buildings and duntdo nuffin.
The flood are building UNSc buildings. Is this supposed to be happening? They also refuse to do anything. Man, really hoping for a vs flood fight.
Good to hear, can't wait to take on the flood in a Covie/UNSC vs Flood match.
Really good so far, but the AI Gravemind doesn't do anything.
Great! I'm obviously not a professional, but for so long i've had a distinct interest in the grunts. I figure I can accurately represent their silliness. I've already written out a few witty lines as well. Once I've got things set up, i'll see if i can give you a demo.
Are you guys currently taking Covenant VO auditions?
The perfect time of year to jump back into an old classic.
I both approve and abhor the idea of Underhell switching to Unreal 4. The pros being that the engine is far more powerful, well optimized and visually impressive. The cons being that the game would take much longer to make (Which a lot of us are already used to anyway.) and my fear that the atmosphere won't be the same. The source engine had a certain charm to it even if it wasn't that visually impressive.
