Well, it's a bit later than we'd have liked, but Mace has whipped up a short video of a bit of RC2 stuff.

IF its true, the spam of april fools jokes today that is higher than usual, then it had better be where only sniping the jetpack makes it explode, nothing else. Otherwise mandos = way nerfed. Oh and flaming bodies? I guess thats kind of cool, but it doesnt make up for the fact that if your back is shot you explode. Oh and if its an april fools joke, whats the map you are on?

Wow I just remembered it was April Fool's. =P
They did the same thing last year with a "B19 Preview"
GRIMMAH!!

maybe the april fool's joke is that we think it's an april fool's joke when it actually isn't a joke. therefor the joke is that we think it's a joke even though it isn't a joke when it actually is a feature when we believe it's really a joke
wait.. wut?

Camp moar kyle!
Just because it's aprils fools day doesn't mean it won't be in the mod eventually :P
What I think happened was there was two seperate mandos. Either way, burning bodies + exploding jetpacks = sexy.
Burning bodies is cool. Burning players still alive is cooler.
So, if you snipe a mando while he's jetpacking around, he blows up?

Could we possibly scrap this feature and instead let Wookiees make anything they touch blow up? This would help with some balancing issues.
Uh, why so long on the sniper guy?! I thought this was a jetpack preview, not a sniper kyle modeling show.

LMFAO That was hilarious. Like, an hour of the guy just standing there, then exploding projectile rifle shots.

actually thats pretty cool. Except I would think if possible only have it explode if projectiled to the back but not sure if thats code-able.
The guy who played Kyle did an awesome job. Great job, Katarn. You're my hero.
Looks nice tho, for a possible joke..

Pretty awesome :D
I think that really captured the nature of MB2 accurately. Snipercampz!
Epic choice of map ;) I woulda preferred the official Death Arena though.

You guys all got fooled.
The April fool here is that this is not an April fools! This feature is true!
I'm a genius!
... Or an idiot.
Not that it matters much, but isn't Flamethrower supposed to be on the right arm?
-=MagmaPower=-
02-04-2008, 15:37
!! Please Please say its real and the april fools joke is making you think its not a april fools joke!!!!!!!!!!
I liked the explosion and flame effect gives so much more to the mod!
ITT:
Nicely executed April Fool's Day event
OR
Realistic jetpack-fuel-meets-high-velocity-projectile-round addition
lol idk what to say cause. i could easily recreate those effects xD cept maybe the accuracy of the snipe.

More like 5. :P
Map (? Can't think it up)
Exploding Mando's
Snipers that actually hit anything.
2 other random things.

I noticed that Kyle's body was burning. New particle effects... Then, if I'm not mistaken there was an explosion at the Mando which is very unlikely... Either the projectile rifle has been buffed for some special ammo or jetpack can explode.
New map (looks like Kashyyyk from Republic Commando).
Better lightning effects (not sure about this one).
How many did I get?

map looks more like from that level from JKA where you meet Boba fett.

New map
Exploding Jetpack
Burning bodies
Enhanced flamethrower damaged( killed a hero in like 3 seconds)
Mando can see through walls somehow( came around the wall shooting)

New map
Exploding jetpack
New explosion effect - When the mando exploded he was gone, and in current builds the body is still there after an explosion
Burning effect from flame
It's probably just a regular april fools video, and they're laughing at us right now :p

Targetting system.
Oh I hope this is true.
I find it funny noone screamed overpowered yet. Seriously guys, whats up with you? :p
They don't beleive it.
By you saying why aren't people screaming overpowered, what are you referring to that is so overpowered.

Oh I hope this is true.
Isnt it obvious ?

Overpowered, here is why.
Mando goes flies into a huge group of rebs -> Gets BH friend to snipe his jetpack, 10 rebels die.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
would be funnier if the jetpack flies of randomly somewhere and drops the mando, or flies away with him!

It would be so if this was actually a feature...
What was the name of the song? I know the original version, but is there away to get ahold of that remixed version?
And I'd hardly say sniping mandas mid air and making them blow up overpowered, if you can land a hit on a fast moving manda mid air, while probably being shot at, props to you; reward r masiev exploshun.
Should it be purposeful from a teammate, well, welcome to the world of "tactics"

It was just some small re-arrangements at the end of the song, for video purposes :P There was no real remix.

Tis only like a 30 second clip, not gonna release that :P

I dont get it why you guys keep thinking this is what i was refering to, when i specifically quoted that it was having a type of wallhack for mandas.
Lol I can't wait for RC2.

Regardless of which, it's still a valid point.
-Edit
WTF wall hack for mandas?! BURN IT. <3
Lol I can't wait for RC2.

when will be rc2 realesed?

When it's done.
Would be cool if you could shoot-explood the manda's jetpack and the manda wouldn't be able to fly anymore D;
I'm sure Frost wast he one that got burned, hero's wouldn't die that fast unless they're made out of ice.
when will be rc2 realesed?
6 years. When we stop complaining and asking when it will be released.
Excellent new features if I do say so myself, though a more epic "Stormtrooper Bowling" trailer may be in order later, if you ask me...

Ha ha! Dumb people got tounge twisted.
Wow, if Raven did all the things you MBII and OJP guys have done then JKA would have easily bested Halo 3 and COD4 even in its time....but then maybe the people in the MBII team might not be as inspired and the mod might not exist...

Halo 3 was crap though .....
Precisely Plasma, MBII > Halo 3 not because MBII rules, but because Halo 3 sucks :D
And sorry, Azu, but your demo technique needed work, too :p
Wasn't exactly capturing us on film anyway, if I remember you complaining about how "omg demo won't play back!" correctly ;)
this video was in need of teh's b18 pugmod cams, oh wells.

If it worked with RC1, and I could figure out how to use it, I never figured it out :(
But really, it didn't anyway, there wasn't any shots where you needed pugmod for.
I actually lol'd when the Mando exploded.
I like the new fire effects too.

I played Halo 3 once....it was good. I liked MBII better.

True story:
There was serious discussion on how we were going to compete with the release of Battlefront. :)

I remember that. The first battlefront ended up sucking anyways. (Second one wasn't much better.)
