To give a nice idea of the **** that can be pulled off in these caves, let me tell you what I'm thinking: 1 flag pirate base assault (the caves are perfect for pirate bases).
So.. Can you tell me how to get in these caves? Just place a reciever node in the island? And then go in the sender? Awesome find Ninja. And that isn't a bad idea, that would be awesome if we have the space.
Holy ****! They weren't kidding when they said it was ahead of schedule. I'll be getting on soon for sure!
Please somebody try to answer this! On forge island all the ieces have been changed to a dull light grey texture. You can see clearly that they were going for a more metalic texture for the pieces but i have a feeling that they also did this in order to try to reduce framerate issues? Or am i wrong... would removing texturing on alot of the pieces ie. the ramp stunt, make framerate drop less?
Texture or color doesn't effect framerate, polygon count and special effects and lighting does. I think they were going for more of a concrete texture look here to support more of an urban feel to the structures you make.
Here's a look at the inside of the rock and some commonly used objects. Everything is pretty monotonous for the most part, but we have hope!
Haha, that's awesome. It's too bad the innards of the island is like that, I was hoping for a literal cave. Eh, whatev's. Looks like this will be much like Erosion in color monotony, but with water, trees, fantastic rocks, and grass. I'm excited!
...I-I.... I... I LOVE IT! I thought it was small when I first gazed upon it, and figured it was some sort of sick april fools joke but damn was I wrong. 343I has outdone themselves with the size of this thing. I needed some motivation to get back to forging, and 343I has answered my prayers.
Damn it Auburn, you totally beat me to it. Anyway, here are some more pics, just in case. Spoiler Just a few notes, once you get in there, there's no way out other than death by waterpit, even though it looks like you can just travel over those rocks. Also, lighting is ****ed up.
It looks like I am going to have to forge Crazy Shapes early! I hope that I will be able to get out a Map Preview for it (and a better name) by the crack of dawn on Sunday.
yeah, ive already built 2/3 of a map layout and it all looks like concrete come to think of it. not sure if itl look good with aesthetic touches and colouring of blocks thats yet to be seen.
Ah, too bad. Those interior caves look too dark and glitchy to be actually useful. I'll just have to make my own caves out of the GIANT ROCKS.
It has no Window Coliseum, and is almost exactly like Ravine, piece wise. It also has a GIANT green screen piece for people who want to do videos.
