Supreme Cmdr Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 I unveiled these exclusive shots on tonite's show over on www.agn3d.com . They show the new Insurgent base, New America. Carved out of an asteroid, 10miles long by 4 miles wide, floating through space. Heavily defended and serious bad news.Imagine this baby bump mapped and with turrets (mounted on the asteroid and the hidden base itself) firing everywhere. www.bc3000ad.com/shots/bcmshots7.shtml [This message has been edited by Supreme Cmdr (edited 02-18-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattler Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 Thanks Derek, I knew you had an Insurgent's Heart beating inside that chest! Only one word to describe this BABY!! SCHWEEEEEEEEETTTT!!! Now, if I might be so bold, and with your permission, I'd like to assign a base commander to New America. Would that be Ok, or should I wait a while longer?

SpacePhish Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 I just finshed watching the interview on AGN3d. I'd say it was very cool indeed, I can't wait any longer!! When is the demo going to come out???!! It was also my first time hearing Mr.Smart speak, it was like totally weird. S.C didn't sound nothin like I imagined . I can hear a little bit of that ole' british accent. Overall the interview was very cool. I give it a thumb up(but who the hell cares about what I think? ).

Parias Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 I believe he said the demo was due out sometime in March or April..As for that base, well, it's gonna be fun dragging some Galcommie pigs kicking and screaming (with Mr. Tractor) right into that thing, smacking it repeatedly against the surface while it's pelted with turret fire...*cackles evilly to himself*------------------ Parias ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Guest Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 Now THATS a BASE! Wow, I hope that all future installations be like that... varied and eye-opening.Hey, it looks like the starbase from the Wing Commander movie(albeit, the ONLY cool scene in that movie)!!! AWESOME.MORE MORE MORE (hope the fleet starbases will be as cool..I would'nt mind having one of Wraith's Starbases be underwater or on a canyon )Congrats Insurgents.... and thank you for that new base Galcom is soon to own *grin*------------------ Fleet Commander Daniel "Tac" Londono GCV Usagi =Wraith Fleet= "Hard,Fast, Furious...FIRST!"

Supreme Cmdr Posted February 15, 2000 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 Sure Rattler, its your base, you can assign who the heck you want to it The challenge is going to be, how to take out that thing. Since you don't have the fire power to destroy the asteriod, you have to fly into that ravine, locate the reactor plant and launch several high profile missiles at it...while evading turret fire from all sides. Then of course, you've got to get out because when that baby goes boom, its going to take out everything for miles. And the fact, like all asteroids in the game, it is actually dynamic and moving, makes it that much harder.Of course you could just shuttle drop a couple of marines down there and put them on a SAD profile and hope that they find that reactor. You can still destroy the base itself, but to take out the asteroid and prevent the base from being rebuilt, you have to take out the reactor.In short, its a one way suicide mission. btw, its not even finished yet. Jason expects to finish it sometime today he says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Sedlacek Posted February 15, 2000 Report Share Posted February 15, 2000 Wow.But just you folks wait, when we're able to build our own bases on planets, moons, asteroids, etc. with one of the BC releases (forgot if it was 2020 or Millennium), I'll build a base so big, you won't be able to take it out. Mwhahahah!I hope we can record short movies in BC:M, becuase I'll find a way to take out that base without getting killed, by golly, I'll find a way.Man, when I saw the shots, my mouth started to water, or maybe it was the See's Candy I was munching on. Mmmmm.... candy. I'm suprised I didn't start to cry, because those screens are some serious eyecandy. And we only need a P2 266 minimum to run this thing?

Supreme Cmdr Posted February 16, 2000 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2000 LOL!, you guys are insane.Actually, the single ACM mission in the BCM demo will be to take out that base.uhm, did I forget to mention that it has dynamic cloaking capability?...and I guess I didn't mention that in multiplayer, based on the race/caste you choose, you get to launch from a specific station and that New America is one of them? Bummer, I must losing my memory a little. You guys think this is good? Wait'll you see Athena, one of the cities in space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
