Aw come on.

Folks, this is just a model. Taken straight out of PS1 and put into PS2. Its not working or anything.

Just an Egg to give some love to us Vets. Some nostalgia.

Wonder if there are other vehicles somewhere. TIME TO DATAMINE!

Oh, a dummy you say. For looks only. Wonder what the kiddies will want for Christmas after they see it in game?

I know what it is. As long as it remains a prop of the past I'll be more than happy. I would of rather though seen a old PS1 Facility abandoned out in middle of a cont for a Easter egg instead though with a capture point in it. Maybe then we would get some descent facility fights. :P

Back when PS Next was a mere Smeet they were originally giving PS1 a face lift. That would include BFRs. When they switched to PS2 they made a lot of changes including ditching BFRs due to negative feedback.

This was probably an asset created at that time which a clever level designer decided to turn into an Area 51 style TR secret weapons project as an easter egg. Possibly the greatest PS2 troll yet!

Lol.

As long as they are balanced and take 3+ people to use, I'm on with it.

BFRs belong in a museum. Of fail

I wonder if there's a "secret" cave easter egg hidden somwhere with bright, purple stalactites, red crystals and strange conveyor belts leading to nowhere...

Lol

Just looked through the files. File name for that thing actually has "Easter Egg" in it.

Cant get the mesh to open, its in some strange format that is apperently also used by Free Realms, but is somewhat different for PS2 so no tool can handle it. :/

Textures however can be opened, and reveal that there is only the TR BFR right now.

I agree with the in the chat. Kill it.

10 bucks says we get caves next.

Captain1nsaneo · 2012-10-21, 02:23 PM

Thanks for the confirmation Basti. Anything else in those files labeled Egg or such?

I like easter eggs as a general rule but the subject matter in this case is guaranteed to cause a flame war.

NCfighterr · 2012-10-21, 02:32 PM

that absolutely better just be just for looks if that thing move at all the developers are challenged beyond all practical belief those things destroyed PS one. There is no reason in any way to include those awful things again. They need to stay out of ps2. It will just be bad.

Nope.
Just this BFR.

Well I lol'ed

SturmovikDrakon · 2012-10-21, 02:52 PM

Some of the reactions here. Sheesh.
Even if they did bring them back, you think they will make the same mistake in terms of balancing?

That thing looks cool though.
