Doesn't the grav belt pretty much serv that purpose?Kaboodles_The_Assassin wrote:Can you make a relic that lets you fly?
No redemption relic? Awww... Well... The redemption relic is kinda similar to vengence, but it was nice to respawn elsewhere in the map with all your weapons and no kill against your score.
Vampire should be pretty fun to play with though.
Do these come with sounds to let you know when you have one in effect? (The old UT99 regen relic had a low whirr noise whenever it gave you health, and the weapon one made the UDamage sound whenever you fired your weapon)
Finally, is there any visual indication to inform us what relic an enemy is holding? (UT99, the regen one encased your character in a blue mesh when it regened, armor gave a green mesh when you were hit, damage gave a purple/pink mesh when they fired, speed had speed trails, and vengence/redemption had nothing)
from what i read in IRC there will be effects,like a kewl trails for speed,a explosion or something with vengIceboy wrote:Doesn't the grav belt pretty much serv that purpose?Kaboodles_The_Assassin wrote:Can you make a relic that lets you fly?

Relics are like the gravbelt randomly spawning items,when you pick one up you gain a special power,afaik there are
Vengance:Upon deaht you explode like a megaproxy
Speed:Move,move faster
Shield:Shrug off more dmg
Regeneration:close your wounds
strenght:Make the enemies feel youre attacks
Vampire:Do damage,get health

Relics (runes, artifacts) have been around a very long time. Since Threewave CTF at least, probably even sooner.
Welcome to the games, young one.
And yes, we will indeed have visual and/or audio indicators for when a player has a relic. What exactly those are, and how they will look, are still being worked out. Thus the lack of pictures of those.
Stay tuned!
if i remember correctly yes,there will be,but after dropping a item you wont be able to pick it up so you cant get regen,get full health,stash it in a corner,get damaged,come back and fill youre health againIceboy wrote:another question... will there be a keybind for throwing the relic? That was useful in UT99, cause Regen wasn't really useful when you were running around the map will full health and shields, so dropping it for an armor or weapon power relic was a good strategy.
That sounds like a good way to prevent exploiting and abusing it.TKATK wrote:if i remember correctly yes,there will be,but after dropping a item you wont be able to pick it up so you cant get regen,get full health,stash it in a corner,get damaged,come back and fill youre health againIceboy wrote:another question... will there be a keybind for throwing the relic?
