tFighterPilot Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 The movie looks like he was done on a tnt2 computer. Besides that, the level looks great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted December 14, 2003 Author Share Posted December 14, 2003 Actually, its grainy because it was heavily compressed using DivX because I doubt ANYONE would have wanted to download the original size of the cut... *1.56 GB* so:) Well, 1.56 to 2.34Gb if you include all the footage we took.

Kurgan Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 The Extended Edition Director's Cut features an additional 40 minutes of Kurgan's Greatest Crashes along with a blooper reel featuring such classic moments such as Kurgan shooting his own ship somehow. The Collector's Edition features the Extended Edition in a metallic collector's tin along with a hand-carved "asteroid" statue that vaguely resembles Mike's likeness imbeded in a giant potato (individually numbered with certificate of authenticity). Just kidding, of course. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop3560 Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 wouldn't a floating block in space to fight in look bad? If you want duels, I mean, just play Kotor and meet up at the big empty pad... What could be cool, not on this map though, is a relic of an old ship floating around which moves around its axis meaning there is no stable floor to stand on. Would make duels more interresting.

_PerfectAgent_ Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Originally posted by Bishop3560 wouldn't a floating block in space to fight in look bad? It could be something cooler, like a floating dome, with the dome part being glass. If you want duels, I mean, just play Kotor and meet up at the big empty pad... And it is fun to run over people on the ground, or at least make them "take flight." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 I HIGHLY doubt that we will include a place for dueling, since the whole premise of this map is for space vehicle combat. We are going away from typical Jedi Knight Games which was lightsaber and blasters blazing. And go back to the good ole' space dogfighting.

Kurgan Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 What Andy said. While combining ground combat and ship-based combat in one map is an intriguing possibility, it isn't likely to happen in the Asteroids map. About the only time you even see players running around is when they're in the hangar's scrambling to their fighters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that would probably be only in an FFA based map. By the way, will the Asteroids map will be playable in FFA and CTF as well, or only TFFA?

Andy867 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 It will be strictly TFFA, since the hangars are set-up that way (team-based). There will be no Capture the Flag or anything either. Just straight up dogfighting in some old and new vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syzerian Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 having a dueling place would be kinda cool like a secret asteroid somewhere but the only problem is that u cant land a spaceship it just keeps going u can only slow it down will there be ejection seats? it would be really funny if u were about to hit an asteroid so u ejected and the guy behind u sees a guy falling to his doom lol then u could get on top of asteroids and shoot people:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 well, sure you can eject, but you just suffocate from lack of oxygen, plus you would then die from probably freezing to death. So die in the explosion:) And then, you realize that the explosion was from blasters, and you look up at the top of the screen as it says," Syzerian was killed by Andy867 " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 would be interesting if you were to mod the game so that ships can pick up flags or so that people could w/o having to get out of their ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 Well, the MP Source Code is out, so the ability to make an option for it is out there, someone just has to do it. But there probably wont be CTF in this release of asteroids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syzerian Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 do u have any idea approximatly how big (file size) the mod is going to be? after all it will contain new model probably sounds and textures so im guessing around maybe 20 mb but i dont wanna go downloading anything big (56k) :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 well, it's a little over 7 MB right now, i'm on 56k as well and it takes me about 40 minutes or so to download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 With some new models on the way for the map and the vehicles that Manquesa and 71M, and the Tie Advanced from Neomarz, plus a working Falcon, the file size has been typically 7-8MB, but my guesstimate would have to say around 8.5-9MB as the final size, but I cant say for sure until it comes down to that point. But it will definitely be well under the 20MB mark, even the 15MB, and possibly under 10, so it wont be an unbearable download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acdcfanbill Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 i wasnt saying that you should, i was just thinking it might be an interesting addition to any mod vehicular capture the flag oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{CT}QuiJon Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Man Khan let us have a beta to test on our servers, this one kicks a** over Kotor flight any day. One request would be a extra ship with missles on the Imperial side. Everything on rebel side seem to have some type of missle, maybe give the interceptor missles to help balance the awing which is the owning ship right now. Seems everytime we play it rebels own. Maybe not own, But are winning easily. Otherwise this is the shiznitz! Thanks for letting us test it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
