The Christmas suprise... let your imagination run wild!

EarlyDawn · 2003-12-12, 03:44 PM

The devsl hinted at a christmas suprise that would make you "fear your enemies" or something like that (if someone remembers the exact quote, post away). It could be any number of things, let the speculations run wild.

What do I think it will be? No idea. What would I like to see? The base upgrades... one way teleporters from the base to the local bunkers, Unreal Tournament "Assault" mode style, one way glass, and those forcefields on the bunker windows. Make them lock to the local SOI owner too.

hover-vanguards *shudder*, quadruple size inventories, no COF bloom for any weapon, and 10 second HACL replacing 5 minute HART (High Altitude Catapult Launcher SPROOOIING WHOOOSH WHEEEEEEEEE!)

ShadowOmega1....your sig will be Murdered by sigbot...but its cool tho

Heavy tank would be nice, but I can't imagine something like that popping up without any advance notice. It would be a nice trick if they could pull it off, though.

Yeah, where'd you hear that rumor? It would be nice, but unlikely.

::holds up little flag for base and bunker improvements::

Lol, im not even gonna bother guessing because there are SOOO many ideas that could be implemented to PS right now. I doubt it will be heavy tanks though, it would be hard to keep information on something like that from leaking.

Boomer and/or grendade models replaced with parcels.

HART drops into the ocean and a Scuba-Steve cert that allows you to come onshore like fuckin Dick Marcinko and Jessie Ventura, sporting a futuristic LAR-V rebreather and sporting a big fat mini-chaingun spewing fire and death cutting down enemies and hearing screaming players say "WE NEED A MEDIC!" as hordes of former Jackhammer whores pour out of the oceans and then immediately get owned by a trio of Vanu AA MAXes.

Booya, merryfuckinchristmas, Scuba Steve.

Think back to Core combat...did you know that Sony's expansion was going to be subterranean?

All Empire specific buggies will be replaced by a sleigh and damage will cause the death of individual reindeer. Jolly fat man gunner is optional.

Long before it was out? Yes. We're talking something popping in a matter of days. Think back to the Lodestar, how long did we know about that before it hit?

Maybe they'll put little santa hats on everyones helmets. Man, I'd look so good in my Vanu armor wearing a santa hat. Also, from what I heard on Ask The Devs, these surprises will be on Ceryshen and Esamir. Anyone wanna bet there will be christmas trees on both those continents?

Also, love the parcel idea.

MAXman: Hey look, a gift! Must be one of those easter eggs that SOE said they'd put in. *walks over to it*

*BOOOOOOOOM!*

StealthNinja: *uncloaks* Heheheh. *adjusts his santa hat and cloaks*

Buggies and tanks that turn into giant robots with some ridiculous sound when they "transform"
