Q: Just how far are we. How soon can we expect to see the finished product or at least another beta?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Pretty far, there is still A LOT more stuff to add though. All you great guys and gals can probably expect at the least a special holiday mission!
Gamma097: I estimate the next beta to be released around to the start of 2011.
Q: What kind of gameplay will the mod feature? Will we be seeing the 'behind-the-lines' action of Republic Commando, or more of a front-lines combat game?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Front-lines all the way! There'll still be some stealth involved, but for the most part your lugging your kit with the regular meat-cans.
Gamma097: I'm estimating 60% front-lines action, and 40% 'behind-enemy-lines' stealthy stuff.
Q: How many levels will we expect to see? Will they still follow the general flow of Republic Commando with a prologue and three planets?
Mandalorian Mercenary: As of yet, there's no set level amount. Currently, there is an AWESOME prologue; and there'll probably be more than 3 planets.
Gamma097: Currently, the confirmed planets are Kamino (Prologue and possibly a mission), Geonosis, and Jabiim.
Q: Can we expect to see online play?
Mandalorian Mercenary: You bet, that way you can kick other peoples' shebs too!
Gamma097: We haven't really discussed that much, but it's possible.
Q: Should we be on the lookout for any easter-eggs?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Of course! Although I'm not authorized to tell you about any...
Gamma097: Definitely! We may have an Easter egg map something like the '1138' map from the original game.
Q: Around how many re-textures have you done?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Oh gosh...too many to count.
Gamma097: Over 20 is my guess.
Q: What exactly do you do?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Personally, I skin stuff and voice-act for the squad leader, Jai!
Gamma097: I am a skinner and a sound (voices, mainly) editor.
Q: How comprehensive will the mod be; can we expect to see new animations and character models?
Mandalorian Mercenary: Sure can. Although Hockey is more skilled in that area then me.
Gamma097: We haven't done anything about new animations, and only reskins of original Republic Commando models have been made so far. However, many new weapon models have been made.
Q: Give us a quote, an nugget of wisdom...
Mandalorian Mercenary: I'm not violent, just socially challenged!
Gamma097: I can't come up with anything yet.
this mod sounds EPIC!!!!!! front lines ftw!
Interesting, by the sound of it a lot more people ought pay attention to this mod than they do.
Upfront means more clinkers to kill :D
