Lore by QuailLover;


"
  It all started when the Ramosian Confederacy started to fragment. As the largest human government in the galaxy it had repercussions. Many of the factions inside the Confederacy started fighting each other. Many deviant groups found an opportunity to loot and riot. Fighting has broken out all over the slums and the innocent people are encouraged to stay indoors. The military combined with the loyalist aligned political leaders are striving to maintain control. They vigorously enforce martial law throughout their domain.

  The Republic of Masemamar decided to capitalize on a priceless opportunity. As a small, mostly stable republic they sought to extend their power and flex their military muscles. The populations of the planets they conquer usually welcome them with open arms though the loyalists always are a thorn in their side. They have to keep a substantial force to police the populace. Which slows their eager war machine every time they conquer a planet…

Some info for sceners:

Spoiler

I should mention that buildings are built with modular pieces, there is no prebuilt ones. I've included small and big wall/roof pieces. Experiment with scale feature in edit mode to get desired results easier, roofs and floors can be easily made bigger for example.

Modularity also means it may take more time to scene as you need to adjust props.

For now there is only 4 different pieces with some variation (corners, windows,doors). I will make more next week for following versions, as I will be away rest of this week.

As for scening, please feel free edit any other scene except "Small Laboratory", "Base Alpha" and "Outpost".

Thanks for reading

Well done, those environments don't look like Warband at all, very futuristic. That will help immersion greatly.

looks amazing

Thanks everyone 

Here is small update;



Pistol + crappy retexture of native armor. The armor is just temporary until I have better ones 

 

[gokiller]

Send me a pm with what kind of map you wish to see. And perhaps I could help you out a bit if i've some time availble.

 

[Gambino]

dont know if such thing is welcome, but can you change the theme into some sort of BRINK theme ? i love that game! 

the premise of BRINK is.. the world has grown and all the continests drowned because of floods, so people built an ARC, where there were futuristic cities and such, but soon, people had to build around it because people were increasing, so they built rabble houses of old containers and metals to make their houses, and then a revolution started between the SECURITY and REBELS. The combat is fun, theres gun bashing, which can be done in M&B, also some classic weapons with new looks like revolvers and miniguns. and after all the guns are a bit inaccurate and hitpoints are high, to allow for melee to happen

Some pictures:

a rebel

a security

securities assaulting a rebel fort

rebels defending their land

a rebel is looking at the fascinating security towers

rebels fending the security off

rebel defeated a security but he will die soon

 

[Jaakko]

I believe some kind of rebel vs security wouldn't be that bad idea.

Some slums would be interesting to make, I think about it.

 

[Steinchen]

Spoilers? :/

You do know about Battlefield 2142 right?
Perhaps you could take some inspiration from that game.

My favorite Battlefield of all time.



Release looks really cool! Hope this does well.

 

[Pumpkin Lord]

Very nice.

 

[DanyEle]

This came out from nowhere... going to give it a try it soon!

 

[Jacko!]

Looks great man. Wish I had time to do some scening, pretty swamped. Might give it a go anyway

 

[Microcosm]

This looks awesome, does this work with version 1.153?

 

[RalliX]

Alright, I got to fight against another player, so here's my two cents:
Perhaps a sword-type weapon for the officer.

For the soldier, maybe a little more athletics, to make the combat feel a little faster.

A sniper/marksman class: more accurate, less shots per reload, 5 or less depending on how strong the shots are. Lower rate of fire.

A Machine-Gunner class: Same accuracy as Rifleman/Soldier(maybe a little less), more shots, less damage, higher rate of fire.

In general though, gameplay mechanics such as moving while crouched, new reload animations, and more scene objects. New skyboxes maybe?

[Jaakko]

Thanks for feedback.


I will see about adding those scripts you linked when I'm back home next week.


-Adding melee for officer is something I'm gonna do, current dagger is just placeholder.


-Adding athletics, yes.


-Marksman class is already planned to be in next release 


-Machine gunner is also in plans.


I need to ask around forge to add low walking. Animations are bigger thing, but I'll do what I can.
New scene objects are ofc made and I will be also adding new skyboxes and distant terrain.




And yes the mod should work with 1.153

 

[RalliX]

Ahh, excellent. The master-plan is coming together!
