Ruins?

Nanophreak · 2003-07-25, 03:49 PM

I know it has probably been talked about before.. but what about ruins? If anyone took the time to read the owner's manual it states "In existence for over a thousand years, the Terran Republic was the sole governing power." Now if they had really been around for 1000+ years, where are some ruins/buildings and stuff? I know to put stuff like that in, would probably make some people's fps drop sharply, but it was just a thought.

ummm we are battling on auraxis the Vanu were first here.

Well yes.. but my point is that where is the (once again a quote from the manual, "Remnants of an ancient alien race were also unearthed." Do joo see any remnants??

And by the way... I was quoting from the book on my first post.

On one of the continents there's a HUGE skeleton that you can only see from the continent map. I forget which one it is.

Well think about it... Has there been sort of clean the planet thing before the "fight" started? I would at least expect to see some rubble or somethin to show that there was something there long ago.. Even like a small "temple" type thing in sanc that people could see would be kinda neat.

man get ur facts strait im

It would be cool to have a sacred temple on each Sanctuary. Like when you walk up to it a message comes up, "You must holster your weapon to enter the temple" And if you shot at it you got a 15min weapons lock.

but you can't even shoot in the sanctuary...

I think caves and tunnels would be neat. Talk about fun, it'd be awsome to come out of a hillside from a cave near an enemy base for the assult. But like that will ever happen. :

That's true... the Terran Republic existed for 1000+ years, but they didn't exist on this planet. They travelled to this planet, and then got caught when the wormhole they came through closed off. They then started fighting against each other, thus creating the three known factions. As for the ruins of the Vanu.... thats a good question.

The original vanu just died off, and you guys were wondering why there were no animals, pshh.

That explains it. Auraxis is like a bird cage to anything that big. So all the Vanu creatures tried to fly away into space (No air) and they all died out.

I thought it said that the vanu had left this planet
