Gametype Idea: Drone Strike

[LEDx0rz]

This one sounds like it would be a monster to code, not that i'm trying to discourage you or anything ,but then again i know nothing about coding ,but i have one thing to say

CAN'T WAIT FOR RELEASE

 

[[CD]Icedude]

Well duders, Parser said that as long as I did a map for FHIv4, we'd get started on this after FHIv4 is released. This calls for partying, and topic pinning

Rad rocks



One Aircraft drone

EDIT: And one tank drone

hey

i know where ive seen this...


Future Cop LAPD for the PSX

You both have a base and CPs which have big guns. For holding them you can build tanks. choppers or super tanks which then leave your base and head for the enemy base to blow the base up.

If I remember, you yourself cannot get to the enemy base to destroy it so you have to defend your tanks heading to it, or defend your base from the enemy tanks.

Is that where your idea came from? as i remember playing that. In fact that was the best ever game in the world for a MP mode.

Edit:

woo. found a pic of you buying tanks to attack enemy base. (Now those are 1337 gfx)

some more pics here if you need any

Oh yeah, we'd have to include the spine-chilling taunts like the origional had

FluXs gets the cookie Yes, it's based on the precinct assault mode from futurecop, one of my 3 top games (the other two being 2K4 obviously, and Warzone2100).

And just to whet your whistles a little more, here's a high resolution (1600x1200) render of 3 tanks and 3 copters:

I never thought something like this would be turned into a mod... but hell, its guna be good. Although not my fav gamre, it was VERy fun, i enjoyed it alot. Main strategy, get a hell huge tank, make lots of smaller ones, follow the biggen, blow enimys turrets, win

And some more renders to give you an idea of how they look from different angles:

Awesome (Nothing more to say)

Where's the battlecruiser drone? WHERE IS IT? EH? TELL ME THAT!

 

[T-1]

How about these additions to the old tried and true Drone things:
Hoverdrone (costs 1 thingy):
Much faster than the Tank drone but has less health. Same or similar attack.
Shield drone (costs 2 thingys):
Like the tank but it has no attack abilities. Instead it has a shield like the Paladin.
Super hoverdrone (pending name change) (costs 50 thingys):
Basically a hovercraft version of the Dreadnaught.

By the way, I'm hereby allowing the constant bugging of Parser to start on this for real, but only after FHIv4 comes out

 

[Ghost3021]

FHI4!
FHI4!
FHI4!
SING IT WITH ME FELLAS! THIS LOOKS SO AWSOME!
i think a good adition would be those portable forcefields from U2, those things kick @55 , but of course its just a stupid crazy idea.

[Generate] Witty comment to bug Parser about Drone Strike! [/Generate]

 

[Steelixx]

hehe nice

 

[Mimiked]

Sounds like a neat idea, although the last reply is quite old though.


So, has there acually been progress, ever since the last update?

 

[Steelixx]

Can't wait for the release.
