A new Unreal Mission Pack, called "FireStorm" is 99% complete and appears to be released relatively soon.
YouTube trailer
That desert location at 2:30 appears awesome. |

The video looks promising; did they actually add a flamthrower? Or more importantly did they add a WARLORD with flamethrower???
If so, then we'd better start praying to our prefered deity.. _________________ "Anything you do can get you killed, including doing nothing."

Well, someone needs to model a Stinger surface-to-air missile then.
....Or wait, that won't cut it since girls can handle it...
But this will:

Uhm, I'm sorry I have to do this, but..
..the stinger is primarily a surface-to-air-missile (SAM), especially the one in the picture.
..the second picture shows a Javelin anti-tank-guided-missile (ATGM) which, while feasible against slow and low moving helicopters, won't cut it against a landing ship as shown in the video.
I'd suggest we model an ICBM to shoot against those landing ships =p _________________ "Anything you do can get you killed, including doing nothing."

Pardon me, picture mixup. I meant this type of surface to air Javelin:
But, a Skaarj Warlord flametrowing s.o.b moves slowly, and hovers just like a chopper. So if I follow your reasoning that anti-tank Javelin would be quite effective.
About the first, that's not a mixup, that Stinger with IR tracking would also be effective against heat generating airborne targets like a Warlord. To bad the payload is way to small, thats why I want a Jav. _________________ "I do not aim with my hand, He who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father. I aim with my eye.

When I nitpick I usually have a reason to nitpick.
But I admit it would be fun seeing that girl step arouend the corner and down a warlord with the same smile as on the picture
..wait, that wouldn't be fun, that would be creepy
..damn she reminds be of BioShocks Little Sisters
..AARRGGHH

It's Windows-only due to some stupid package needed to play MP3 music in the game. |

He says: "you can always use Wine". Internets says "Wine" is a linux prog to run windows applications, can you achieve that, Stinkmarder?
They posted some new shots of the KRAN level, looks like it would be fun to play in co-op. Never was fan of the KRAN map, but this looks good.

Well that has a very heavily influenced AVP2 environment wouldn't you say? I'll just have to get a Space Marine helmet and a pulse rifle now, and watch Aliens.
Looks pretty good, I like it! |

AFAIK that native windows stuff is just there to play MP3 music in the game. Just remove it and everything is fine.
No need to 'support' it in any special way. Unreal engine is cross-platform, don't break that.
Wine is a nice software and I use it sometimes (on the client). But no chance that I'll install it on a server. |
