That was T-bone's concept art for one of his classes (afaik). It wasn't actually related to Tremulous, but who knows we might end up with something similar :wink:

The human counter part for the Tyrant. Big, heavily armored ( armor plating reduces alien damage by 98% ) and sports twin rapidfire lucifer guns ( thing pulse rifle speed ), 4 swarm type missile launchers and a BFG gun on the head. Also includes it's own reactor and armory to reload it's weapons and the nearby teammate's.

Only problem is that it's too big to fit in any map produced so far. Too bad it would have been a great help.

8 ) Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.
18 ) Make it too tough for the enemy to get in and you can't get out.

I think double luci's would cause too much FF.
Why not double chainguns?
That actually makes sense.

Not only did you bring it back from the dead, but you molested it too. A lot.

Just say NO to necromancy.
Need help? Ask intelligently. Please share solutions you find.

Thats what we need, helpful players, not more powerful admins.

This is to give aliens a chance to flee away of course, we wouldn't want that class to be unbalanced :P

Right, we need the Assault Borg Mk2 which adds an antigravity flight device too!

Why are you posting a screenshot of Quake II Gloom, you fuck. Don't you know that you just do not touch some things, because they are too special to be used in Forums threads such as these? Gloom is one of those things, not to mention the fact that Gloom doesn't have a Assault Borg either, but a Mech.

besides, I'm not serious. I think the idea of a trem mech is retarded.
That's why it's here, of course.

is it controlled by a player or cpu controlled?  if player.. then damn way too good. if it just stays at the base and is cpu controlled well, still thats abit powerful. but its an interesting idea
ou were bitten by a monkey. ;D
NOW KNOWN AS Pink^Sock due to confusions with my name and another player named "a monkey"(all white). =\

Even though tremulous was inspired by gloom, I found that gloom has some cool things tremulous doesn't.
Medics, explosives, mechs (not powersuits, there is a difference), and yes, flying aliens.
