: With the release being possibly just a few weeks away now, he's started
: putting out some footage. Specifically we have the following video showing
: a load of fuel rod action in the T&R hangar, which has now been equipped
: with handy grav-lifts to let you whizz up to the upper levels:
: You'll notice that the Marines there were invincible. Good job too, or they
: would've got wiped out in seconds (you know how those bozos are). This
: way, they continue to provide atmosphere.
: Over the past many months I've been privy to action footage for other maps
: too. One such is the second snowfield area in AOTCR, where you normally
: encounter two Wraiths. Fabulous sniper rifle potential there, among other
: things. Another map is the rockslide area of level 2 (yay!), and
: apparently you'll even be able to fly a Banshee about in there. He
: recently mentioned raising the map's ceiling to provide more space for
: that. Sounds good!
: Yet another map takes in some beachfront area of SC outside the main
: facility, and another comprises the opening swamp area of level 6. No
: doubt you can expect some action vids for these various other maps soon.
: Among the novelties, I think you're also going to have a drivable Wraith as
: an option. Hopefully that feature is still in.
: In regard to game types, here's the roster of pre-defined ones, last I heard:
: Firefight Classic - the standard Firefight experience.
: Sniperfight - infinite sniper rifle, pistol, and grenades.
: FRGfight - infinite fuel rod, needler, and grenades.
: Rocketfight - infinite rockets, flamethrower, and grenades.
: Gruntpocalypse - 100% Grunts!
: Beakageddon - a lot of Jackals. All of them.
: Phantoms - mostly normal Firefight rules, but all enemies are invisible.
: Fistfight - player can only use the skull/flag and must punch enemies to get
: shields back.
: Floodfight - normal Firefight rules but against Flood.
: Robocalypse - normal Firefight rules but against Sentinels.
: Fiesta - lots of randomness going on, making for silly fun.
: Seems to me that this Firefight mod is something rather major to look forward
: to, if you're a CE nut with the requisite set-up. I don't have that set-up
: myself (I'm still slaying covies on ye olde Xbox), but the combat
: potential looks glorious and I know that I'd have a field day with it. I
: do at least hope to see people uploading lots of fun-filled action vids I
: can enjoy, in the months to come.
: PS: This is the same guy who joined me for a talk-through of H1's first
: level years ago, in a series I sadly never got to continue. He's a bit of
: a multi-alias chappie, but is Mango0fDoom on YouTube. Don't know what his
: thing is with apocalyptic fruit, but there we go. Drop him a comment why
: don't you?
This is all so cool. I look forward to trying it out!
