Title: OH MY!
Post by: TheJamsh on October 18, 2008, 03:00:30 PM
i just downloaded and played the BZII demo... i havent played that mission in about 6-7 years! i love it!

but during playing, i couldnt help but see how different it was to actuall BZ2! even the models are different! textures are worse... weapons are random and different

but my gosh is it amazing!

The Demo's DaBomb is a mortar that fires a ton of super missiles.

And the biggest thing?  Everyone (well, not US) complaining about the Jak eating a person...

Such bad table manners...  :)

The thing I wish they had kept from the demo is the exploding trees. I love those explosions where all the green slime runs out onto the ground.

I like the way the vehicle husks bounce on the ground a bit before exploding.

i like how the units talk a lot... its cool

the tree explosions could be added in could they not? cant be that hard?

demo froze on me halfway through, but last time i played that was about 7 years ago, then 2-3 years after i found BZ2 fully boxed going for £2 in my local store!

Demo freezes if you try to go into 3rd person view.

Kinda sad as that is how I always play.

eh...how do people even find this stuff out? I cant open the editor and pak explorer crashes every time.

So how the heck do you mount a dabomb to the tank? I found the Rave cannon, but no dabomb or walker.

Someone wanna explain please?

yeh no walker...

i assume you took assets from the demos pak file and put them into standard BZII

btw steeveeo, theres a special extractor program for the demo data .pak on bzscrap... for sum reason pak explorer indeed crashes...
