An expansion/overhaul mod of epic proportions, with entirely rebalanced gameplay, expanded factions, new gametypes, graphical overhauls, and five new factions; stealth-based Confederate Revolutionaries, tower defense-inspired Atomic Kingdom of China, economy-focused Mediterranean Syndicate, DotA-esque Order of the Talon and spammy Electrical Protectorate.
In the first of what we hope is a long string of updates, we've finally gotten enough stuff working in-game to start showing it all off! First of all we've got a render of the ARV, which viewers will remember was modelled live on Sunday and originated from a fan suggestion. Next we've got the Longbow Liberator, the Allies powerful T3 gunship, hunting for prey amoung the hotsprings. Finally, we see a Confederate Torpedo Boat lying in wait with a Longbow MK1 and a field of Sea Mines off the Alaskan coast, where, as we all know, you can see Russia from your house.
Looks great- and threatening!
That should be a great way to deny ground (or water)- so long as the Mines are not easily destroyed.
They are stealthed until about the last second before impact, and are capable of (extremely slow) independant movement, so best watch out.
Ah, cool. I hope to see them cause catastrophic damage.
One more thing though- where do they come out of the Torpedo Boat?
I mean, where does the crane take them from?
Hammerspace :P
Lol, indeed. Isn't that term derived from the Windwaker game, where the kid-Link pulls out a War Hammer twice his size out of nowhere?
And this is RA3- hammerspace fits perfectly!
(The Allies accomplish it with space-folding SCIENCE.)
It's actually an old anime fandom term. A classic sight gag is having a female character pull a mallet out from behind her back and knock a lecherous character flying, hence, hammerspace.
"You can see Russia from your house."
I see what you did there. lol.
Ah, I see.
This mod is making excellent progress :D
Fantastic. I love mines
Good work out here!
wow the mines look powerful!!
Grr... As a mapper... I must say, that person did a bad job at with the terrain at the bottom of the cliff piece! No offense. Who made it?
Edit. Nevermind. It's just the stupid reflection...
MINES!!!! Sea mines, but still MINES!!! Let's see them Jap Shoguns get through that!
sailor:
captain! look! a hedgehog!
captain: WHAT?!
*BOOM*
The Confederate faction is starting to shape up. The idea for the mines to move is a really great idea; it makes scouting stealth all that more important.
mines? coool
can scouts reveal their presence?
Lol great now we need sea scouts.
Like DOLPHINS! Finally those cute cuddly creatures get a job
