MNC Visual Development Progress

push people away from the tank seems like a detrimental effect to me.

Color concept of Tank


High resolution models based on the concept. This is a several million triangle count model thats used to generate the normal map / bump information that will be applied to the lower triangle count model. The final in game model is about 14,000 triangles.

Pushing stuff away meant he could defend the money ball better, keep everyone at a distance, including bots, so that their shots did less damage and the Assassin was rendered virtually useless against him.

The glowing blue on the top of his armor was also a point defense laser. It would pick off about 50% of incoming projectile rounds. (grenades, rockets, mortars, etc) But it got to the point where the Tank was just too hard to kill. There were times in development where the Tank was WAY OP.

Bahaha, the heart on his undies is cute.

I always thought of the Tank as a chubbier guy, but by this he seems pretty buff.
I thought of the Gunner as the buff one--I wonder if that means he's the chubby one. Haha~

I'm in awe and all I can think to say is "awesome!" haha

lol

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Oh I just got that! hahaha
:lol:

I love the Danger Tank colours.

I was browsing through the Concepts and Renders under the Media tab of the website, and I noticed that Support and Assassin had jump jets drawn up for them. I'm going to go ahead and assume all classes had some sort of jump jets designed for them at the beginning. So what was the methodology behind picking who got to keep it?

Do you guys have some whitebox video footage you could post?

We didn't do too much vid captures while during the whitebox period but I wish we did. I'll have to dig up an old build and try to get some footage.

Too bad you couldn't "release" it so some of the "Uber fans" so they could mess around in it.
:lol:

to bad :/

Bad move, I have numbers now :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

good choice as turok another game ran on unreal engine that had grapple kills had problems on ramps.

Eka,

I can save you a lot of time on your next "tank study" type venture through the use of this high tech design tool:

The greatest thread ever.

Cant wait to see the early Assassin.

GhostRain, I want to see the rest of that Assassin on your avatar pic.

Ekanaut, I want to see the rest of the concept art of all the classes.
