2) Drunk programmers are reallllly easy to kill.

Dunno if I like the team making up drinking games during testing; "Get shot, take a shot!"

Oh Paul???!! The pigs were a little reluctant to hop on board, and are now cooperating. So........What shall it be??

Well if your not concerned with consistency, you could puree, and use a concrete truck and pumphttp://image.made-in...p-Truck-52m.jpg

Debated on wether to post this or not. On the one hand, its just good information and nice to know. On the other hand, I can see the Chicken Little "Sky is falling" / Vaporware threads starting already....

I see it as them getting the basics down first, making sure everything is smooth, I mean one can test all the weapons they have designed and test it with those three mechs while another batch are done and finished.

That's exactly what I need! A monty python company in my sights. *missile lock*

Also, we all want our mechs to work correctly, so give them time to test everything thoroughly. I would like my missile to lock on the enemy and not my friendly, after all...... Unless it's Coffi. >=]

trash cans have feelings too

An Urbanmech is a tool, like all other mechs, it is a tool of death. To underestimate it would be foolish, a village boy with a stick can kill a great swordsman.

However it does NOT have feelings.

Think they KNOW the Atlas (Assualt), Hunchback (Command) and Jenner (Scout) models work.. they are working on game play and not models..

That to me is a GOOD thing.. tells me they aren't worried about the engine or models.. they are trying to nail down the balance and mechanics.. Why throw in other models that could mess with the baseline they have tested to this point..?

You don't need completed content in order to test balance. You can do it with some cubes and drunken programmers. Once content is completed, you just replace the cubes...

The engine is the Crysis 3 engine, they're not building that, while they may need to make some changes certainly, it's still starting with a good base.

Agreed! Was just worried I was adding fuel to the Vaporware fire.

I enjoy the fact that the Devs are willing to share little tidbits with us , and would hate for some info given freely to turn and and cause them headaches.

*whistles* So, where you going before clans Aegis, by the way, nice insig, was hoping to make one kinda like that to match my callsign, but my paint, and drawing skills are an epic fail.

EDIT: Is that Latin?

Did you not see the tweet from yesterday or comment from paul..
They ARE Working with drunken programmers.. so they are testing in the most real world enviroment there is..

That said, CE3 is a great engine but its doesnt do everything for them.. and I am sure they need to work on the whole mechanics that are unique to MW:O. Find out if certain modules give too much power, if certain DFA attacks are too easy.. etc.. etc.. Like you said with CE3 the Mechs and landscapes, etc.. should be the easier part. So the game testing they need to do isnt going to be about fixing the engine, mechs, etc.. it will be about how the game play works out.

[guardian wolf]

Right I had it figured out for Latin, just wanted to check and make for sure before I said the Translation (god only knows how many languages are out there known by this forum, as for all the Mando'ad out there, Sucuy'gar, ner vods). Had a kind of brother hood like that when my step brother was still living with my dad, and we formed the Hell Jumpers Company, we fought like hell, and even in real life, had each others' back. I Remember when my step brother, his name was Dylan, got into a fight at a school event, some kid talking trash. I tried to break up the fight, but the other kid punched me, so I broke his nose, and we came home covered in bruises. Hahahaha, Dylan also got a bloody nose, oh, good times. We fought hard, and then partied harder, we personally chose mando'a for our motto "Aliit ori'shya tal'din". It's translation is Family, is more important than bloodline, meaning we don't don't care who you came from, what your lineage is, if your Mando'ad, of Clan Ordo, you are family, and we will fight, and die alongside you.

I'll leave you with some advice from a wise Mando'ad (my father):
Ke barjurir gar'ade, jagyc'ade kot'la a dalyc'ade kotla'shya.
Ke nu jurkad sha Mando'ade, burc'ya.
Mishuk gotal'u meshuroke, pako kyore

Koyacyi Aegis, re'turcye mhi.
(PM for the Translation, or just ask Phelan Kerensky)
