Obi Kwan Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Is it just me or are there new screen shots on the official Outcast site????? official outcst site Looks like its the first 5 pics, although they are stamped with a "2001" copyright. Those guys at Lucas Arts sure know how to keep me salavating for this game!
digl Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Its not you! there are new shots thnx for the heads up
Roger Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Nice! I've posted the news... I like the outside area (base? nice detailing), saber throw is cool too and look at the light effects on that first screenshot! Nice blue light!
Obi Kwan Posted January 8, 2002 Author Posted January 8, 2002 Notice how pics 4 and 5 are almost the same. In 4, you can see that some of the force mana has been depleated while it is regained in 5. So I guess this means that throwing the sabre will use force mana? That is how it works in Obi-Wan, so I suppose it is likely (though i hadnt thought of that before)
Roger Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 It would be normal that every force power would cost you some "mana" so that includes sabre throw... You have to be pretty focused so you wont cut off your own arm while retreiving your sabre
digl Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 I also liked the outside one and the saber in the 1st one! that ST looks like taken form the movies except it should be cut in half if he was killed with the ls, but whatever, this is a non gore SW game (although It would be more realistic to cut them into pieces, I doubt their armor is that resistant)
Roger Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Are those rockets flying through the air in the outside area?
Roger Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Ah... first mistake noticed... Look at this one the left c"computer screen" has been broken but there is still a blue light shining on the control panel like the one that's still in one piece... Just a small detail, but they should be able to turn off that light source as soon as you break the thing (some inter activity...)
digl Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Originally posted by Roger Are those rockets flying through the air in the outside area? I was going to ask that Im not sure and if they are where do they come from?
Omne Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Speaking of Roger...you think they'll let you cut your arms off when retrieving the sabre?
Wacky_Baccy Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Originally posted by digl I was going to ask that Im not sure and if they are where do they come from? They look kinda like meteors burning-up on entry - notice the encompassing flames and comet-like tail. I dunno. Just my €$£0.02
digl Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 thats a good theory I wonder were they will fall tho I just noticed something The hud seems to be affected by the ambiental (does this word exist?) lightning
Wacky_Baccy Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Originally posted by digl thats a good theory I wonder were they will fall tho Hopefully not on Kyle's head! I just noticed something The hud seems to be affected by the ambiental (does this word exist?) lightning You're right - and dynamically, too; it's not just one HUD for light environments and one for dark... And no, ambiental isn't a word, but ambient is just fine W_B
StephenG Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 some of those pics were in the PC Powerplay mag, it good to see them on the web. much larger than in the mag.
StormHammer Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Yes, thanks for the heads-up Obi-Kwan. I too think those are meteors, because they definitely seem to be coming out of the sky, and I don't see any evidence of a ship. I wonder if that green stuff is sludge or just discoloured water? And I like the way the ambient light affects the HUD. Nice touch.
GonkH8er Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 drat, didnt see this thread. i posted my replies in the other thread, the one i made sticky. argh!
nykel007 Posted January 8, 2002 Posted January 8, 2002 Notice how the LS is off in the outside pic. SWEET! I must say the game looks impressive the ls blur in thr first one looks great. I still wold like to see some form of vid.
