Just a little comparison between empires on BF1942 and HL2 for anyone interested =) (sorry for multiposting, forum only allows 4 pics per post) 1942 Vehicle lineup: From right to left: APC - CV - Anti air tank (not in current version) From right to left: APC - CV - Jeep From right to left: APC - CV
From right to left: KTA (Jeep) - Light tank From right to left: AFV (BE Light tank) - Med tank From right to left: Jeep - Light tank
From right to left: Med tank - Heavy tank - Arty From right to left: Heavy tank - Arty From right to left: Heavy tank - Arty (NF med tank doesn't work in gmod :<)
Aircraft! BE Fighter: Bomber: Dropship: NF Fighter: Geh, forgot to get a decent screenie of current dropship. WIll do in a few.
Misc: Ammo crate: Engi menu (also similar to comm menu and buy menus): Radar: View from radar (Yes, you could use the radar and have an elevated view of the surrounding area) Things to note: - CVs had cannons - Armouries would resupply and heal just by walking inside them - APCs had interiors - Aircraft were a bitch to land - Both NF and BE had pretty much the same vehicles and buildings
whoa! This is cool! However, I like it the way it is, APC interiors is an unnessecary strain on the engine... -Sheepe
I like how that jeep looks like :D, even though you cant shoot the people inside it... Looks sort of like the Tumbler from batman returns...
The dropship's the only thing that still looks good since it was the very last model we added. It's funny how some of those models like the repair bay and the turrets were other models that I recycled by modifying the original geometry.
Heh... In comparison to the lighting of the Battlefield map, the lighting in emp_isle is very flat and drab. Everything is so much higher poly in Battlefield, too. Perrrrty.
I've played the 1942 version a while ago, messed around with it for about 30 minutes, got angry at having no clue what to do and not having any servers to play on. Hosting a listen server and trying to do anything on it was like getting hit by a laccrosse ball going 90 miles per hours while drinking Green And British Tea at the same time. There is a huge diffrence between battlefield emp and source emp. Source emp=teh win with blimps and whales.
"Depth of Field" is so very ugly and unrealistic in such extends. Resembling a severe visual impairment. But I've got to say looked good on BF engine. Source will seriously beat it some day, thought. (I'm taking into account that BF engine is far worse to mod for and a lot older)
Wow what a difference. One thing I might add is that Armorys should be more like the BF1942 judging by those screenies they also acted as a bunker.
