2011 Interview, interesting to look back at it. Also bazaar with desert storm weather effect.

I forgot about erathic, a player and artist, who was mentioned in another thread. I went to stalk some of his work and made me remember how dark and real hawken used to look like before the HUD visor was implemented and other visual changes. I hope capnjosh would actually, as a homework, go through all of the files uploaded on internet from Erathic.

http://www.erathic.com/hawken/

This guy has done so much work! He did camos, HUD revamps, chassis concepts, logos, command/expression menu to use in-game like counter strike for communication, crion vs senitum vs prosk introduction video sketch/storyboard even a fawkin view of the planet Lial...

Also, there's been a t-shirt contest in the forums? Well guess what...

While people like me were whining about night maps variations and have more light effects:
he was already working on it...

Oh hey, here's his contact information if you want him in the hawken dev team:

I tried to get a hold of him a while back; no response.

 

His stuff was so great, and I had a few questions.\

Meh, nostalgia comes from the past so it's not a lie since it is felt in the present and inspires the future.

Well I found his Real Name, that wasn't hard, and contacted him via Facebook. Waiting for an answer...

I was mostly j/king. I actually agree with you, for the most part.

 

Though I'd definitely argue that there can be a point when nostalgia starts to fog one's perception of events, both present & future.

And not always in a positive way.

Yup, bring all of that back!

 

In 2011-12, all the extra effects in the graphics and sound may have been rough on PC's, but this is almost 2016.  We can handle it.

Why to keep living in the past when you have a brilliant future ahead of you?

forgetting the past is not caring for the future. Based on things that were done better in the past, hawken could go one step back to go two step foward ;)

I mean, just look at it, the dashboard with all the info needed is so... complete! Then the sounds and weather effects, turrets from ship firing at us and so on..

Thought picking up items during game play was a good idea


Asus Rampage III Extreme, Core I7 950, Dual EVGA 580Ti, 16Gb G.Skill Sniper, 240Gb PNY SSD, Walmart mic :P~

My post was mostly aiming to the fact that is gonna be like more than probable that the devs will handle UI improvements in the near future as well; IMHO.

 

For instance, right now I found a bit complicate (or tedious better said) to pick up one of the many mechs I have in my garage prior getting in a match. I'm confident on that the UI will improve not only in that sense but in many other aspects soon. ;)

Implemented in some other mode at least. A mode born out of a mix of MA&Siege where you can activate turrets, shields, drones in abandonned bases where you actually also want to collect EU or maybe transfer it into to reactivate the base. Bunker could be a good map for this since the Bunker could actually hide an underground base? haha just pitching some ideas here...
