Red Alert 3 - Unleashed is set 26 years after Uprising. A total conversion of Red Alert 3, it will include 3 totally new factions with all new units, buildings and powers.
The Penetrator is a basic infantry transport able to carry many men onto the battlefield for deployment. To protect it's self it carries a rail gun which can easily pick off enemy infantry. However it's light armour means it's an easy target for heavier tanks. Designed by Philip Chin
This demostrates the units voice and effects. See the Youtube.com version.
it,s little in-game:P
but it,s nice when units go inside the front opens up.
:D
Penetrator, ready to transport!
... HIV...
see what you did there...
While it´s still processing here, I saw the video on the youtube: Youtube.com
Exelent shooting effect, but the size is too small.
It would be nice to have it bigger, although the scale in Red Alert games has never been brilliant!
Otherwise good job!
We had complaints the model was too big lol. I guess this will come out in the BETA when we have everything in. At that point we'll probably rescale most units so it fits.
@mythickhan That's what she said.
Sexually suggestive name.
Penetrating...
exactly what I thought XD
"easily pick of enemy infantry" - ...
Fixed.
Yea it could be a bit bigger, imagine those conscripts fitting inside that vehicle
Bahaha. Bigger... Thats what she said
Its ok I guess, it didnt seem too formidable to the rifleman tho, 4 kinda slow shots for each, have to remember enemy infantry wont just stand there and let it shoot them, it might be better to see them shooting it whilst it was taking time to *pick* them off, especially considering whatever other types of infantry it might encounter like rocket/flame/grenade etc ...
It does look abit small & not sure why the front opened after the infantry were inside..
I'm not exactly sure how the name fits it, maybe "infiltrator" and give it a *stealth* capability ? (with or without defense weapon)
"Penetrator" - you would expect a vehicle that is strong and would enter your base w/ force, something you might expect from a large vehicle that could *penetrate* concrete walls and even *force* other units/vehs out of its way, this vehicle is not characteristic of that :)
Remember, this is pre-beta footage. Many things will change between now and then.
When I first saw it shooting I was like "oh Penetrator that means that the shots go through multiple targets". But then I saw only one conscript fall with the 2 lined up and I was like "oh well that's not too impressive". It's still a nice unit but I'm just saying you got my hopes up with the name and the way it looked like when you set it up.
Also I agree with the comments above it would look better if it was a tad bit bigger.
I think the "Penetrator" name is supposed to mean that it penetrates lines and deploys men in it.
to have multi meanings with a name is even better :)
I imagined it would be bigger.
That's what she said.
Anyways, Can't you guys see from all my comments that this is pre-beta footage?!?! Size and RoF will be a lot diffent! This is to just show it off in-game, nowhere near the final product.
I think the railgun should damage more and shoot slower,to be more realistic.
Nuff of the "That's what she said" guys. We get it :P
