Water+Dust=Mud

today I was playing on the three point map and I fell into the vat of acid and thought i am half sumerged and i am bobbing up and down which are the main mechanics of most games with water so if it already is working why not introduce stuff like rivers and lakes?

There is already water on the maps, A friend of mine bugged out and actually flew out into the redzone, he went for about a minute and came across a large body of water, took a pic, will upload sometime soon.

Also, in the concept art there is a river, check this one.

what are those big alien-robot like things

Forget the river... I want to pilot one of those things. Are those guns fittings or do they come standard? Just think of allthe bad jokes you could make with a mech that utilizes a Sodom mounted between it's legs.

Don't know, but I want to kill one just to say I did.

According to the concept art thread, they're drones. I thought the drones all hovered, though.

Is water in the next build? I know trees and grass are!

No water yet, but if it's true water can be found on the map far in the redzone, they just don't want to introduce it yet untill they figure out more of the game.

I hope water works in a way where if you are in anything but a scout suit, you sink right away. No swiming. But you can survive on a lava planet, or in space with the suits we wear, so we should be allowed to walk underwater to cross a river. It should be slow, but possible. Then boats can one day have a role as water is slow and scout swimming isn't high speed.

Actully you know what I'd rather see? Subs.

I want an ammar underwater sub that I can use to sneak through rivers and bodies of water.

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!


but no, it's a drone

Guys, any evidence that our "Drone" isn't a Gallente or Amarr MTAC? Looks like it could fit either race's aesthetics... I'm leaning towards Gallente because of the lack of shiny though.

Because it's OP

It's a drone with legs, look at the more detailed concept art of the drones, you'll see the resemblance.

The reason It has legs? Probably because it's just really old, made before the drone designs were finalised.

really warlord :)

In general all ground side drones used by the empires are walkers, quadra peds, or skitter types, all very visceral in the things they tear apart.

The rogue drones usually have hover however and they consider us food.
