Over the past few weeks I have noticed an increasing number in drop pod designs and variants incorporated in maps, and I have also noticed plenty of comments begging for tutorials and the like on how to make them. Now, to make life alot easier for everyone who would like to see how they work and whatever, would anyone who has made a drop pod and WOULDN'T mind if it were USED by others. I myself have several designs, some functioning, and some simply acetical. I will upload screen shots and tutorials myself if this thread gets going. So to anyone whos interested in sharing their designs, Thanks. -K-
They only started getting popular when rifte gifle made ODS3 and he's already made a guide on how to make one. I think his is the best though because you can control when you drop.
Yeah, Mine relies more on not really moving, but the illusion of moving, The pod itself is fairly cramped, but looks very nice ascetically, then using some fusion coil explosions and grav lift techniques along with teleports makes a very interesting landing experience.
I just got done with this new infection variant today. ODST troops spawn up in a carrier ship, there are 4 drop pod chambers, when you enter, you drop to the ground floor. I will upload pics tommorow, right now I'm exhausted.
Uh, do you mean "aesthetically"? Anyway, there's a simple design with 4 barricades by Awkward Silence.
0.0 This is a very interesting thread. I tried to make several drop pods... all ended up failing or becoming too complicated to continue making. I'd love to see all of the designs you guys are talking about. BTW I think the reason drop pods are so big is because odst is coming out and people are excited. It's also a switch and kind of a challenge to make... that makes people want to try to build it! If you could maybe upload pics or a link cuz that would be awesome!
