The Robots are Revolting! (DOS Reborn) [V2A Released!]

<< < (44/44)

Ruzma:
Props to Trill, then, and everyone who had a part in this, of course. I'm very glad this is finally out.

I've tested the weapons for myself, and I'd say that they all work pretty well, I'd say most of them are really good,
the only outcry being Plasma Cutter.

In practice, a short range weapon that needs to hit twice in a row to work, in a frantic platform shooter is not worth the trouble. It's rendered practically null by the fact that everything else is a better option, running straight into enemy fire just ends in you being fragged and other melee weapons just do more damage, more consistently.

I think an extension of its range or width to make up for how crazy unsafe it is could elevate it a whole lot.

Hey, folks! Just a quick update to say that the weapons, skins and bots have all been updated for V6B compatibility. Our own DOS Reborn boys will appear in the campaign (sans the 8 and V stories), the skins have all been updated to include mugshots, and the weapons now work with a whole host of V6B features that they didn't have before. All the links on the front page have been updated accordingly.

A note: you'll have to load in the bots file separately instead of just plopping into your skins folder to load.

An update to the maps will be coming down the pipeline eventually! For now, I hope this tides you over. Happy fragging!

Also, I wonder if that unused/unseen scientist that SnakePixel named Dr. Samba would make an appearance in this expansion of sorts.

Ask SnakePixel what Dr. Samba's full name is.

Howdy, all you DOS Reborn fans! We're into a new era with DOS Reborn- V2 has now been released! The changes are... well, fairly minimal, but it's always fun when the number jumps up, right?
