[Effects] Backblast

Post by **Dunehunter** » 2007-11-04 20:06

Slow-motion effects

Anyway, is this purely cosmetic, or does it actually hurt?

Make it hurt! Bad! So you can't fire it from confined spaces

Hm...hopefully it'll atleast annoy the pilot when you fire that

Good stuff DF. Really good stuff. This will especially be nice for those of us playing at higher lighting settings I imagine. Can you get a vid of this in a shadow or something?

"PacMan is on trial"?

Desertfox · Post by **Desertfox** » 2007-11-05 22:11

Thanks for all the comments

And yeah, my bad about pacman on trial

I was pasted it to okita on XFire and I guess it didnt copy my effect youtube link when I did ctrl + c

EDIT: Moved it to far back now

this is going to take some work to get it right lol, everytime I change it I have to go ingame and record it in BR

Hiyooo! That's fantastic =D
Hopefully it'll really make rocketmen stick out like a sore thumb in the heat of battle.

very cool! would the devs be willing to put that in .7?

Post by **Z-trooper** » 2007-11-06 07:18

well done mr fox, now I'll get more teamkills with my HAT

Well, this way people won't be asking me why I always turn a 360 before firing AT weapons. Half the time I'm tempted to yell "Backblast area clear!" over VOIP.

I can't wait to see some dumb ******* fire his AT with his back against a wall or when inside a small bunker. Or better yet, playing Benny Hill music while some joker thumps an AT4 with half his squad behind him. One BMP disabled, 4 teammates down. Anyone got a sock and a bar of soap?

Post by **Dunehunter** » 2007-11-06 22:42

I'd go for the prettiest then. Unless someone from the armed forces could give us more info?
