Description
Not seen in the known galaxy for nearly 100 millennia, the re-emergence of crewed forerunner ships (as opposed to the inferior automated Sentinels widely seen around Forerunner artifacts) is a relative mystery.
That looks awesome. Im taking it will be part of a Forerunner faction?
Thanks, and yes it will.
So I take it you will get to play as the Forunner??
no it'll only let you look at it
0_o Awesome!
Oh, and I textured this one myself, so let me know what you think.
Yep just looked up some other forerunner concepts and it looks perfect!
I think it suits their architecture just perfect. I wouldn't say a masterpiece, but it is VERY good. But of course, that's just the opinion of little old me. XD
"Shoot straight and run fast."
"die proud brave warrior"
XD I hear that ner'vod.
lovely...just plain lovely :)
Impressive as always.
It's nice to see the newer concepts being added into the game, not to mention that the skin also looks perfect for the unit nice job canada.
You've definitely played WOT before haven't you? :)heehee
What gave it away?
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic. But if not: The icon of course. It's used by them of course silly. :p But if so: Your icon was leaking oil and wouldn't stop shooting at me.
I couldn't think of anything else as a good form of a comeback if you were being sarcastic.
....oh my god....thats a sexy looking ship
holy ****, thats sweeeet
Cheese Puff's of Glory! That is awesome ship Canada! I love the blue especially. ;) We wants more now Canada!
I do believe I will love this mod...
I think its cool and all, but the bluish-whitish texture seams a bit too bright for me.
DO NOT GET ME WRONG, i think its a great design, I just get nit picky.
The light blue is actually house colors that glow with bloom quite heavily as well. Doesn't show the bloom here for some reason though.
Can you please answer my question on the Forerunner Guardian page please? I think it is really important.
Answered.
sick cant w8 2 play
kickass

<3_<3
The ship looks cool, I think that perhaps the house color is present a little too much. If its always blue its okay, but if you were red I think it'd look too much and too weird.
Completely agree. It's also too bright as earlier stated, but the ship does look freaking awesome =}
Sexy.
TRON much? heheeh cool ship anyway, it really suits the Forerunner atmosphere :3
Yeah, a lot of my influences for the team colors were from TRON.
Honestly I don't think an entire forerunner faction is the way to go...especially not MANNED SHIPS? O.O
The UNSC and Covenant combined couldn't take them on, not the mention the problem with them being dead and all...
Yeah, actually I've been thinking about it too. Might be better to make them all "officially" unmanned.
Apparently, 4/20+Posting updates on moddb= Doesn't go too well.
If you read Halo's Cryptum book you'll know that the Forerunners were able to take the essence of one there own or any living creature and transfer it to a War Sphinx which would be able to function on it's own though limited do to the need of a controller who would give them commands and lead them. What you could say that the Forerunners who were fighting the flood transferred there essences to ships that laid dormant in Shield worlds to fight again another day even after they lost their physical selves in battle against the flood.
Idk, at least have something that looks manned
Should these ships actually be manned? If not by Forerunners by what? Some sort of descendants or automated systems built to take control of the ship in the event of the Halo Array firing? Or would it be somthing stranger and more mysterious? Maybe some sort of AI That was advanced even by Forerunner standards and very intelligent,maybe somthing along those lines? In my opinion i don't think they should be manned by organic beings,but by some sort of Automaton or sub system routine that would continue the ships functions and eventually bring it back to full working order.
I think that if you are planning on making the Forerunner and the Flood as playable factions, they should be made to battle only each other during the Forerunner-Flood war. If so, then the manned ships should be perfectly acceptable since they haven't yet activated the Halo rings.
If you are planning on making them fight after the activation of the rings, during the Human-Covenant war, then you should remove all manned ships. Your choice, but I believe that the Flood vs the Forerunners during the F-F war would be cooler since no Halo game has any of that and you can pretty much invent almost anything.
True. I was thinking of just calling them different "Era's" and letting them keep their manned ships.
i like the Era's idea for your scenario battles. because the forerunners are more powerful, Fore VS UNSC would be very hard and fun.....
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I love it. Very Forerunner looking ship. I also love the textures. They look excelent. Keep up the good work CanadaMan.
looks friggin amazing, but are those blue designs textures? Would be cool if they had a soft glow to them if possible
reminds me of my tron :)
Wow this just keeps getting better and better. I cant wait till yall release it :D
Damn! Just when I think that it cant get any better, canada has to make it even more awsome. Very well done. I cant wait for this game to come out.
this look awsome , the thing is would the covs every actualy attack them , they would count them as "holy relics" , and the UNSC proberly couldnt even dent the hull (unlees the MC is on boared he seems to have a habit of blowing up ships XD)
Canada u can get some ideas for ships in the Halo wars game(in particular when the covies reach the shield world) the forerunners ships are too big and more impressive than covies ships for this one (sorry for the post in the news page) i think u need to have to change some details like the blue lights of the ship, it's too bright but it's not good and it's only a frigate i will be patient to see the capital ship!!
So are the forerunners going to be the most powerful class?
