New Class updates

[Teancum]

Man, ya'll should thank Commander_Fusion. With him organizing the buglist it takes tons of stress off. So anyways, I wasn't going to reveal this until closer to version 2.0, but I think it's important to keep you updated since folks were asking about recon/commanders, plus the clone commando on Haruun Kal. So:

Recon Class:
Unlockable At: 16 points
Weapons: Advanced Sniper Rifle (slightly better than the Award Rifle), low powered pistol (changed from 1.7.5), Invisibility (except Alliance, which gets health regen), Immune to mines

Special Operations Class:
Unlockable At: 20 points

Class is different depending on faction...
CIS: Magnagaurd w/staff (IG-101, 102, etc... up to four)
REP: Clone Commando (Boss, Fixer, Scorch, Sev, "Marz" -tribute to model creator, Dark painted commando, "Caboose" -tribute to Red vs Blue, Std Grey commando) or Shadow Trooper (need a skin of one) depending on the map. Republic Commando weapons
IMP: Imperial Commando. Weapons unknown
ALL: Rebel Special Forces. Weapons unknown

Commander Class:
Unlockable At: 25 points
Weapons: Target Pistol (like Han Solo's), Orbital Strike (one per life), Rally

Awsome! Boy would I love to play around with that orbital strike........

Thanks Teancum!

If you send me the commando skin you're using, I can make you a shadow one.

[Teancum]

I've seen a bunch of Shadow Trooper skins using the Ep III Trooper model, I just don't know who made them. That's what I want.

[PrinceXizor]

For the imp commando you could ues the P3 dark trooper? Just a thought

[-_-]

On my side, the BF1 stuff is going great (despite the countless stacks of homework, soccer team, and mentoring), I'm really close to giving Tean an actual Beta, except right now I'm in the process of renaming some of the files.

[Fusion]

You all had better thank me, you never know what I'm capable of doing to you :twisted: (lol). Caboose and Magnaguards?! This I have to see

[Teancum]

Yeah, it doesn't look a *lot* like Caboose, but his visor is gold, and his accents are yellow. When I finish munging I will post screens of Marz and Caboose. So like, tomorrow

@ PrinceXizor --- We'll be using the Imperial Commando found here, which is a variation of the Scout Trooper:

The Rebel Spec Ops *MIGHT* use this skin:

I found the Rebel Spec Ops trooper here: http://www.gametoast.com/index.php?name ... c&start=75

It was made by PvtParts.


And how it looks in game:

And a Storm Commando was made by Flippy11 here: http://www.gametoast.com/modules.php?na ... ls&lid=201

[Teancum]

Nice finds! Now I just need that darn Shadow Trooper skin.

[Aussie_Irishman]

ok, well i'm certainly not complaining, they look like amazing features for more unit classes, but are there going to be any more "basic" classes, that dont require points to unlock?

That skin doesn't seem to fit the Rebel's profile, but it is in the comics...

Don't forget about balance. A fast, normal healthed unit should not have extra powerful weapons.

In my opinion the entire idea doesn't fit the Rebel profile. Just my opinion though.

Shadow Trooper:


Do you want that one?

EDIT: I removed a little of the grain in this one:

[ML_916]

I think Linus made a Shadow Trooper skin..I think this link: http://www.gametoast.com/index.php?name ... c&start=30 has a picture with a shadow trooper...ask him to have it but I don´t think he´ll give a reply until monday...

and that rebel spec ops-skin looks really good but I don´t think that those fit very well with the rebels..

[Teancum]

Yeah, I think I agree with everyone. The Rebel Spec Ops needs to be more like Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid.

[Teancum]

As Promised: (skins are pretty close to final)

Caboose: (note that his number is 4 1 03, meaning April 1, 2003. That's when the first RvB episode came out)


Marz: (in tribute to the creator of the model)

[Rekubot]

Looks sweet, Caboose's colour scheme goes really well together.

[ML_916]

maybe the alliance Spec Ops could be like the guy in the front of this picture:

would be pretty good maybe...

[Chris165]

Linus made the shadow trooper, allthough I do not know if he had added the stealth abillity, (it's also inside the thread attack of the stormtroopers 1#)

I'll ask him about the shadowtrooper through msn.
