For all of you that aren’t familiar with TeamOrbit, they develop MODs for UnrealTournament.
In the past they released NeoCairo beta 5.2 for UT and the Hoverbike Rat beta demo for UT2003. Their moving to UT2004 now. All the work their doing is to eventually develop the MMOG Orbit Wars. They’ve released quite some impressive content over the past few weeks.
Here are the highlights:
The Dingo, this vehicle is a perfect example of showing how TeamOrbit isn't just a team in name, but a team in deeds as well. The Dingo was modelled by James 'Xen' Patterson, UVW mapped by John 'Agent-X' Inman, and skinned by Mario 'ThunderBear' Orsini.
The Dingo has a manned howitzer turret on the 'backseat' and the pilot can control the Dingo's machine guns. This way, multiple enemies can be targeted, or all the firepower can be focused on one enemy. The Dingo has one weak point. The cockpits are open-air so both pilot and gunner make easy targets to take out.
The Magnificent 7. As the name says, 7 Magnificent female models. But don’t let their beauty fool you, they’re as deadly as possible.
We’ve been introducted to Mia, Sarah, Kasha and Sumi so far. They’ve released some videos of Kasha’s updated Mocaps aswell.
The Reptile Rider. Previously seen in the UT 5.2 beta the Reptile Rider is back. Redesigned and looking deadlier as ever. This Alien rides a big T-rex kind of Reptile. Biting anything that comes near it!
