Какой страшный HUD..

[PRH]

Этот HUD уже сейчас можно испытать в Skirmish. Честно говоря, мне самому он не особенно нравится - предупреждения выдаются какими-то непонятными значками, скорость показывается только по одной оси... Но оформление стильное.

To people who don't speak Russian: Elessar was complaining that the Delta Wing's HUD looks ugly to him. I personally don't like it too much either, mainly because it's not as user-friendly as the Starfury's HUD. The fighter's speed is only shown on one axis, and warning messages like "enemy locking on" and "collision alert" are only displayed as small icons the meanings of which are very hard to guess.

On another topic though, what intrigues me the most is the number of teams you have involved in one mission. Various raider clans, I guess? And it should be "vagabonds", not "vagabounds", unless, of course, it's a pun...

I don't know, I like the idea of an Icon only info system. That text across my screen every time an enemy locked on got distracting. It SHOULD look different from a starfury, and more simple at that. While I agree that the SF is more asthetically pleasing, I think that's the way it should be. The Zephyr isn't half the ship the starfury is.

It's a Narn ship, guys. And it's a Narn HUD. It shouldn't be too pleasing for a human eye...

A typo. Like I said, it's only in alpha stage

Um, yeah. I knew that all along. I was just playing! ya know...I really did look closely at the picts.
Still, everyone wanted to fly ships from other races. This is great!

No chance. I was just trying to describe the events of single player campaign. One of its missions, actually...

[Shalbatana]

Oh well. I Can't have everything every day I guess. If I did, there'd be nothing to get tomorrow.

Hey, it's not that bad!

Making missions is fun! Especially with mature technology...

[Shalbatana]

Well, now there goes my mission making manual!!! You're not making my mixed feelings of elation and minor loss any better.

Now, our freighter looks better than ever! Made in Korea...

Cool transport. Can we expect a particular date that I can pilot a nice Delta Wing into the side of it and destroy it for the hell of random violence?
.... Well I like ramming ships with my fighter. Put on invincibility and ram into an Omega's front section at 5M. Does so much damage, plus you get to watch the ship explode as you bounce off it and move away at about 2M.
... I'm not crazy.

Now THERE's a screen shot that should inspire a heck of a lot of discussion!

I know I have many questions. Cut scene...or playable location???

[Renderer]

Don't believe in miracles...

[Warlord]

So can we expect flying in close orbit or is that just cutscene?

Hey thats me!!!

Sorry. Delusions of grandeur.. Always did fancy myself as a bit of a raider pilot..

Anyway the screenshots look great! Cant wait to try it out.

[beamweapons]

Mmmm... looks like the heavy delta wing. (the red plasma shots)

Been practicing flying that thing in skirmish... it's got a lot of rotational inertia on it.. more than the Tbolt... Nice hud though.

this looks to be a great campaign.. *waits... semi patiently*

By default, it's true. And, on that screenies, it's aslo true. But, as I've mentioned (I think) before, you can select your guns, missiles and fuel load before some of the missions. You can install "Red" guns on usual Deltawing, or traditional longer range "Yellow" ones on Heavy model. There will be a few other choices as well...
