The "Onos" is the giant rhino-like alien. And by Giant I do mean Giant... there's a lot of map locations it doesn't fit. And talk about armor! You get a good glimpse of a pissed-off Onos doing a stomp move at 1:48. The stomp causes infantry on the ground to stumble and freeze.
That was the patch I downloaded last night. I haven't played it yet, though.
Keep in mind this is not like any other FPS you've played. This is essentially Command and Conquer with real people instead of bots, so each team gets a strategic commander who sees a top-down view of the gameplay and delves out resources. If it has one flaw, it's that it is too ambitious.
How's the balance between the aliens and the humans? Looks like a new concept to me. haven't seen anything like this.
ReplyDeleteStill working on the balance issues for this one. NS 1 was very well balanced, but it was released in 2001 as a free HL1 mod, and had a few years to get the balance right.
