Set In the turbulent times of the Cold War in 1983, a robot invasion force has emerged and begun annihilating human life all around the world. The militant groups, factions and countries that were once hell bent on killing each other soon found themselves forging allegiances to counter the new threat. The game is set 9 months after the original invasion and the world is just a husk of what it once was....

Final
iv_steel from the perspective of an Invasion player
looks industrial but the white outline everywhere doesnt fit the map theme and why would a robot see everything like this if so wouldnt the other items have a white outline?
Its the way their processor calculates walkable space. As far as gameplay goes, because the Invasion team is geared towards (shall we say) less talented players, it is designed to guide them while they traverse the map.
It would be awesome if instead, everything to the robots(?) looked kind of like fuzzy white noise instead of plain black. That way all the textures would remain and the player would get the sense of looking through a camera lens. I like the idea of having paths of travel, and it could still have the white (consider light blue color) outlines. The dark textures mixing with the bright light really strains the eyes, adding the grungy white noise effect would definitely reduce the stress. Oh and if you could, it would be really cool if when the robots saw an enemy player a targeting system (which listed the resistances health, name, weapon, etc) came up. It would even work while looking at crates and objects, listing their name and possibly if they contain anything inside. Adding these ideas may help the robotic team feel more realistic. However, this still all looks very good, cant wait to see more media releases!
Targeting system reference: Madelk.co.uk
The contrast isnt quite as blinding as it might appear. As for the targeting system, we did have this planned however a lack of programmers means we didnt get alot of stuff done that we would have liked. There is a small change well get this in between Uni handin and public release.
Youll just have to wait and see...
ok i get you but how can you implement that 1 team sees it like this and the other like normal?
This feature is currently working already :)
