Post subject:  Upcoming faction - NVC *Beta updated*

**Update** Ok, lots of new goodies:

Image

From left to right:
- Soldier with a Combat Shotgun, pump-action shottie with some nice kick to it.
- Scout with Silenced 3mm SMG. Lots of bullets in a short time, shreds unarmored targets but has crappy armor penetration. Can be dual-wielded
- Officer with Sabre and offhand 20mm Handgun.
- Riot Breaker with Automatic Shotgun. 5 shotgun shells in around 2 seconds. Ewww.
- Scout with Sniper Rifle. To give perspective, this thing is balanced around numgun's AAL sniper. It has a hell of a punch and will often knock the firer flat on his ass if standing.
- Soldier with Assault Rifle. An AK-styled rifle, just because they look awesome.

So download them and have a play :grin:

Next up; More weapons, the mech, a craft of some sort and of course balancing. Do let me know what you think.

Sprites, Sounds and code provided by yours truly.

Special thanks to Darlos9D and numgun who's body of work provided an invaluable reference point for my own. Big love, chaps.

From what I see, I like it.

Well cheers :grin:

..hmm in retrospect it's kind of hard to make out the soldier's head. Will fix that.

Looks good! I like the visual style of these guys. The only thing that seems a little weird to me is the knobs protruding from the bottom of the jetpacks. Not sure what those are, and if they're nozzles, they probly need to be more... nozzley.

Otherwise, the face/helmet of the scout is really neat. I like the robot-type vibe. The armored/trenchcoat of the soldier looks good too. As far as visuals, looks great so far! Kudos.

I think they're just little details to look good.

I like the trench coats.

I don't like the antennae sticking out of the head of what I presume to be the scout.

Sprites are great.

Yes I enjoy the sprites also.

I like the soldier quite a lot, but like no_0ne said, the bandana on the scout is sticking up a bit much.

Very nice work. The trench coat guy reminds me of Killzone a bit, especially the glowing eyes. I'll be looking forward to this.

Thanks for the kudos fellas.

That thing sticking out from the back of the scout's head is a sensor-antennae thingy. I was thinking of angling it up about 15 degrees so it looks more that way. Thoughts?

I'll post some more stuff when it's done :grin:

First off, the name is retarded.

Sprites are pretty good, and yes, you should angle the antenna upwards.

Initially satisfying, lessee the beta 'soon'.
Tip :
  • Change the name

Author:  ppiksmada [ Thu Apr 17, 2008 10:40 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Upcoming faction - NVC

Honestly I think the name should be changed also, No_One already has dibs on the "-oska -oska glomo forces rushka" thing

Post subject:  Re: Upcoming faction - NVC

Antennae has been angled, the heavy is legless, but otherwise finished.

I'm going to keep the name NVC. It will stand for something else though... Nasty Violent Cads? Nordic Viper Crew? No Vast Canyons? .. Not Very Creative? :oops:

I'll release a little beta when I get the heavy done.

Love the trenchcoat, but I don't think it should be black.

Looking good, hope you progress well with this :)
