Hello everyone! Last week I started editing the hawken wikia as I felt was rather sparse in content once one strayed from the pages about the mechs proper and the items, and because it's the only not completely outdated result that came up in English for the google search "hawken wiki".

 

So I've been applying myself to filling it out as much as my free time allowed in the past few days. My efforts seem to have not gone unnoticed too as more people have been making edits recently than in the last couple of months.

Hopefully this community can pull together and make it a useful resource for new players and a handy reference guide for game trivia?

 

As a side note I'd like to add the wikia is all purpose and accomodates gameplay and mechanics as well as lore and just about anything hawken related so in general it can just become a great hub for stuff if everyone pitches in.

 

http://hawken.wikia....iki/Hawken_Wiki

 

I hope to see you guys in there!

 

BTW quick disclaimer before anyone gets ideas I'm not like a big guy on the wiki or anything I just made an account a week ago and went at it, Tiberiumfusion is the owner.

Wikipedia is a good and right thing. You can see what we have with the Russian Wikipedia http://wiki.hawken.r...??????_????????. After all, we have one goal, to inform the community of players of the game. Therefore, some borrowing from each other think quite expected.  :thumbsup:

P.S. Perhaps in the future we will also correct Russian Wikipedia site http://hawken.wikia.com...

That wiki looks pretty good, a shame I can't read Russian! :P

 

I also saw one in Japanese while searching the internet for Hawken wikis, looks like many people had the idea.

All help is welcome of course! Right now the bread and butter of hawken gameplay which is the mech/item/internals articles is pretty up to date, as are the lore pages. The cosmetics section (namely, the various mech chassis, thrusters, and paint patterns) could really use an overhaul (the repair drones are fine though, tiberiumfusion completely remade that article a while back). My monitor just isn't good enough to get clear screenshots of the images from the store to use at any useful resolution. The articles on the various maps are also sorely lacking right now, and I really think we could use a guide on Coop Bot Destruction but the problem is I personally never play it so my experience is very limited.

Oh and of course proof reading of my articles is always welcome, English is my second language and sometimes I get too wordy and use weird tenses or turns of phrases.

 

My big endeavour right now is to write about the Hawken community. I wrote about ultra-violent wednesday, war wednesday, 2 nights at straya, the dev silence of 2014, and sunday sunday deathmatch. I've gotten into contact with Nept and Crafty for a TPG article which I'll start work on in the coming days. Also probably an article on the officially unofficial teamspeak server, done in the same vein. And much much more.

 

Of course I'd like to invite anyone from these forums to browse through the wiki, and point out any other subjects or pages that they think should be added in or elaborated upon. Since there's no updates for the game and the wiki started pretty bare-bones there's a lack of direction that I can't really make up for on my own.

 

I just want this to be a repository of knowledge for the community to help new players and serve as a source for older players, as a wiki should be. Together we can make it happen!

 

I'd also like to thank our Russian friends who put together a really comprehensive wiki that contains loads of stuff including some that isn't even ingame any more! I don't even understand Russian but I can see the care that was put into it and that's really inspiring.

I mean there's all of these as far as paint patterns go. Some are unreleased or no longer available though.

Colleagues, if you need help finding the original images from the game, then I can help. You just tell me what you need. Maximum specific.

http://ru.hawken.wik...om/wiki/???????

Maybe you should sit for an hour and look through the gallery of images, perhaps you'll find something interesting http://ru.hawken.wik...??????:NewFiles

Or, if you want I can throw the archive with the original images from the game (in  .tga).

See that's what I was saying about the russian wikis, your database of cosmetics screenshots is really amazing. I guess with this I can easily bring up the whole cosmetics section of the english language wiki up to speed.

 

Do you have maps of the game maps like this one I found for Bunker? I feel like that would be a really great thing to have for articles about each game map.

The fact that you have shown this map (bunker) that appears on the radar. Unfortunately there is no topographic map in color and texture.

 

 

 

 

On the page with maps presented ruviki miniatures. If you need the original pictures (FULL HD) the list exactly what you want.

That's fine, all those maps you linked are really great. You have all my thanks, with this I can really push the wiki forward on all the fronts I've been trying to work on for months!

 

I'm also downloading your archive now.

You're welcome. If anything, you can contact a colleague.

These game files are not somehow kept secret. And I am sure that the developer is not against their use for the benefit of Wikia.

Just you can browse at your leisure Russian Wikia, and look at what I did. Perhaps you'll find something interesting for your wiki.

I solemnly declare that the old Wikipedia alive! 

It is necessary to make some changes which, as she missed a lot while she was in a "vacation." I'll do this in the near future.
