The Uber Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Hmmm....good question......I would hope so!

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

You think it would be common sense but both the Perfect Dark devs who ported it to XBLA and Blacklight Tango Down had messed up private games where the teams were randomized. While in Blacklight the side you got on was dependent on when you joined in PD you had no way of choosing sides.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

So I noticed waaaay back you were talking about aim assist. The worst was in the first Halo (and probably subsequent Halos) on the rocket launcher. The best way to get kills with it is to aim at the ground, but the aim assist always pulled your shots to the character, above the ground, sometimes making you miss. A splash damage weapon like that shouldn't have aim assist.

Anyways, I have a question about sponsors. There are a lot listed on the website that do effect x1... but really that would make the effect exactly the same. Is it supposed to say effect + 1, or is xX simply another way to show the bronze, silver, and gold tiers and clip size x2 doesn't necessarily actually double your clip size?

Edit: While I'm at it, is it possible to have no sponsors, just because?

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

I was wondering when will Monday Night Combat be available to download on the marketplace. What time specifically?

Two games that I was hyped for have failed on their release dates, Magic the gathering didnt release on time and Blacklight Tango down took several hours after its "official" release time before it was available to download.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Games usually go up around 2-3 am Pacific but some have taken several more hours than that in the past two months.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

I was wondering if theres another way to check the map? Like when you die you see the whole map and all the robot/turret locations, i was wonder can u press like back/start and see the map that way?

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Yes you can, in the developer walk throughs it says you can hit back to see the scoreboard, but idk what exactly it shows on there lol.

My guess is probably everyone's k/d, but not sure if it shows their class.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Q: KillCams?

never mind, i can just watch the gameplay vids. sorry about that...
game looks epic. ill probly be playing the support. or tank.

actually another question, not about mechanics really...
how does the tank differ from the gunner (besides abilities.)

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Still waiting for the Devs to answer this question.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Tank is more for close range. He has probablly the highest defense/hp in the game and he doesnt have a huge mini gun. The tank is more for close range combat with his jet engine, just picture him as a pryo+heavy hybrid.

the gunner on the other hand, is a heavy offensive guy with his mini gun with lots of ammo and wide spread but doesnt have as much defense as a tank does and also his skills are more for offense (slam) rather than the tanks stun/blind skills. (product grenade, and jetcharge lvl 3 knocks enemies down)

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

To keep people together on the same team, you can invite people to an Xbox Live Party and the game will keep those players together even in a Private Match. There isn't a direct select what team you're on option. That being said, we added Private Match late into development and would love to revisit it in an update based on feedback. There was only so much time and resources we had to finish and polish the game. We're looking to the community for feedback after release for further updates.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Alright thanks, I appreciate the response. I just need to let some people know that you can choose sides. Seems easy enough, most teams are in party chat anyways.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

do you think there will be dlc, if this game is really popular?

(open question)
if you could change the location/enviroment of the maps to anything else, instead of a white arena, what whould you change it to?
(example, aztec temple, or sky towers)

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Hmm... well as of now we know 3 arenas. GrenadeIII is over the ocean, lazer razor appears to be over a desert, and ammo mule is over a city. Idk why but i love arenas over citys and when you look down you can see all the buildings and sky scrappers and stuff XD. I think a snow environment would be cool too XD.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

what avatar awards does this games have?

it whould be really cool if i could have a pet mascot or pitgirl , or a tank suit for my avatar

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

According to the Xbox 360 Achievements Website The avatar awards are a MNC T-Shirt, and a Mascot head for your avatar.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Epic rewards are epic XD. Gonna switch my perfect dark tee for that one probablly once i see what it looks like.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

I saw in the video that bacon basically gives you all the gold level sponsors automatically, but what about juice? Does it just let you do more damage or are there other benefits? Is there a reason to juice while bacon'd?

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

Not 100% sure but bacon is very rare to find so that might be the down side of it.

Re: The Unofficial Official Q&A Thread

there is no sponsor for extra damage (at least i don't think so) so im pretty sure bacon increases everything else, and juicing increases damage

As Scathis (or Eka, i don't know which) said "My first two bullets took down half, you do alot more damage while juiced" (Developer Walkthrough 2)
