Omg that shed is outside my house D:
Yes, we are performing nuclear bomb tests in that area, please don't mind the noise, and keep brown paper taped to your windows to protect yourself from the radiation.

Not many blog replies yet, looks like OWA took everyone by surprise by posting it so early

Wow, very early blog. !Vote OWA to get ill more often and get more done
So you got that vomiting virus thats going around eh? I hope I don't get that one, although it would be great to have time off university (only been back three days and already looking forward to the next time off!). Anyway, get well soon
(But not too soon.....)0 -

The video was made with a test version of the scripts implementing some changes to the veterancy system, and at that point vehicles did not get the veterancy icon's when promoted, only the improved weaponry. You might notice the war miner was getting health / armour regeneration, which was added in a recent update to the scripts.

Rookie / Veteran Warminer = machine gun.
Elite Warminer = light cannon.
Same as RA2

Those are the specs I will be basing the final version off.
The system could be fitted with a 35-round curved box magazine or the 71-round Suomi drum, the latter being the more recognizable fitting.0 -
PPSH firing rate: Not final, although it probably will be a bit faster in full auto mode for final.
I loved this blog, also I noticed the "umm? O.O" smiley thing in the PTs.
Those are PT's I made for my clan using some of the custom smilies off our forums. It's kind of an inside joke

I am 100% sure the Tesla tank was one of the few tanks that could shoot over walls, so somehow it must have arched, and I am pretty sure the prims tank did it too. And since when has electricity been a beam, I really never seen a lighting going straight down
I meant with Renegade. In the Renegade engine beam type weapons cannot arc. So we cannot make arcing tesla bolts, they have to travel in a straight line ( + the wierd ziggy zaggy stuff, but internally its still a straight line with a ziggy zaggy drawing method applied )

Hint hint: Beam type weapons CANNOT arc, which both tesla and prism tanks would use for their weapons. Hence, arcing over walls is NOT possible with those tanks...

So you want all tanks to turn into artillery type weapons where you have to aim half a mile above the target and hope to hell that it arcs how you want it to?

indeed I predict running away will be a much more viable tactic in AR than in any of the other mods to Renegade, ans also other of your teammates might be able to finish off the apoc you run from
Yeah, hit and run tactics might be a very important strategy for the Allies, using their faster tanks to their advantage, gaining veterancy points (and therefore more powerful tanks) without losing anything. The Soviets on the other hand generally have slower tanks, and would rely on firepower to obliterate the Allied tanks, and gain promotion that way.

And our beta testers will know that in AR, the Grizzly tank is very fast and, if used properly, can take down a full health / armour Apoc tank in 1 on 1 combat by simply dodging it's shots. Requires a lot of skill by the Grizzly driver, and relies on the Apoc driver not predicting their movement and leading the shot effectively (fast changes of direction help the Grizzly here).
Generally, between two equally skilled drivers, the Grizzly would lose, but the Apoc would take a heck of a beating first.
EDIT: And, of course, the Grizzly's driver can easily escape the ponderous Apoc tank, so if it looks like it is going to lose the battle it can just run away, while the Apoc, being a lot slower, would have a tough job escaping from a battle if the Grizzly driver wants to destroy it.
EDIT2: And don't forget, running away is a very good idea sometimes, since you will save your veterancy points that way. Getting killed strips all of your veterancy points from you, so should be avoided at all costs. Even if you don't kill the opponent you might still have a lot of points for damaging them, which all count towards your next promotion.

As dumb as it may sound, that's true. Thankfully, a script that was attached to Renegay's visceroid stopped crush-able objects from yelling like humans when shot/killed.
Or just set their Orator type to none....

0_o tank tread marks eh? about time rofl, i cant believe however the renegade team didn't complete the code, where they really pushed for time?
They weren't until EA turned around and ordered them to release it before it was ready.... *shrug*
0 -
Wait, so I run a test on that test release and get 2 people in, and then you run the same test and get lots of people? What gives?!?
Anyway, as I have said several bazillion times before, those sandbags are something I knocked together in renx in about 3 minutes, they are NOT final
EDIT: But I think we might have to keep the barricade feature... looks fucking awesome.. maybe purchase sandbag wall sections like a beacon and you can build walls using them for $100 per wall section or something? (And, make them actually destroyable
)0 -
When OWA sends me them.....
Finally the allies will have an effective apoc-counter in the tests (although driving circles around apocs and owning them with grizzly tanks is effective, and very funny too
)0 -

Aye, make a bone or 10 under where the tree falls and use a script to create some nice DEATH explosions
(IE: invisible explosion that rapes you 
)EDIT: Can't you just set the anim mode to kill on collide?

Except our miners don't have a back that tips....

I assume so since he said 'Check it out' and then there was a gap and then a new section....

Is it just me or is the Ore Extractor image not actually there?
And I am struggling to see any differences between this Apoc and the last one, except it seems to have had it's treads hijacked by chavs...
0 -
i hope the tank destroyer is really maneuverable.... or else it will be one of those units no one buys.....
It's not in release 1 anyway, you will only get it on a 1/5 chance when it is released, and it's so powerful people WILL buy it for the lolz when they smash apoc tanks to smithereens
