Recon Trooper Gameplay Video

Reworking the mech

I've overhauled the Mech's movement code, allowing for twisting of the torso up to 90 degrees. Movement around the map looks a hell of a lot more natural now compared to before.

Also, check the blinging new cockpit! Complete with reflection of the pilot in the glass visible under harsh light!

Rooftops2 Complete

Bada bing, another level down. I don't think Rooftops2 will have bot support any time soon though, the instant-kill drop is causing them lots of problems. (especially when using jetpacks)

Paul, I... I...

Overhauled the GEP (guided explosive projectile - thanks Deus Ex!) gun, the missile now heads towards the laser properly rather than the bastardised way it moved around before. Should make the assault trooper a certifiable mech destroyer.

Rooftops2

I'm currently working on redoing the old rooftops level from the early beta tests. I'm making a conscious effort to  put more emphasis on multiple pathways to each team's base to prevent the standoffs that occurred on the middle building. The sunset look is working well to differentiate the level from the nighttime street levels.

New Precision Rifle, Grenade Launcher and SMG

Just posting some screenshots of the new view models for the recon trooper. Aside from some small balance fixes, he is pretty complete and I shouldn't have to fiddle with him much before release.

New Assault Rifle

Just finished a brand-spanking new assault rifle model for the trooper:

Everything is shaping up nicely! Only 4 more view models to go!

Musical Talent

Now that development is really kicking into high gear, I'm pleased to say that Julian Francis has kindly offered to produce some musical tracks for use in game. Exciting stuff!
