Polge Interview - 14 minutes - real information! ut3

[Flitterkill]

Info *not* in the interview but worth noting

 

The new Levi - each turret is a dif. weapon (not sure how that will work - sounds like variations of chain gun turret, shock, etc.) but each turret also has a 2ndary shield function like the Paladin - That will help quite a bit for defense against raptors and the like.

 

150-ish meg file - mp4 - but at least you have folks who know what questions to ask doing the asking one of the producers.

 

Seems there is a helmet pickup in the game now as well (temporary power-up or takes a limited amount of damage) - why for? - prevents headshots!

No - you can't right click and save as - gotta click through and do the filefront thing to get this.

UTV:

Prob - if not at launch, then in bonus pak

 

Ranking System:

Not only website, but also integrated into game browser. Will also highlight player strengths - and this will display on server browser (ie see not only players but also how good they are, what they are good at, etc.)

Seemless streaming:

What this means is there will be no more loading maps at the end of a match/map - you will still be able to chat, talk, etc. while the map flips to the new one - and this will happen remarkably fast. Also allows server to balance teams immediately as it sets up the map (ie - players do not "reconnect" at each map load)

 

Shieldbelt:

Back in from older UTs - also armor packs of differing types.

 

Hoverboards:

In both Warfare and ONS (any gametype with vehicles)

Yes - there are tricks you can do.

Not designed for combat use at all.

 

Necris Walker:

Equiv. to Axon Goliath - i.e. tank. We have not yet seen the Necris equiv. to the Levi. The turret underneath the walker is to knock back people trying to take down the walker.

Can climb over just about anything.

 

Dodge-jump:

Out

 

Double jump, wall jump:

In

 

Characters:

Way customisable! Think rag doll - think RPG chose your character stuff.

 

Shipping:

Very early in the spring. (I'm pretty sure thats what he sez)
