Matt likes his hippos!
Just great! Louis heads off to the sun and pina coladas leaving me here with a mad monk and an aging packet router for company. Didn't bother to leave the keys to Crux's cell either. Damn monk is starting to count out primes again. Louis won't let us answer your HBO mail either not after the last incident. Well we can still post news. Head on over to the Marathon's Story page for one of the weirdiest pics of Matt Soell ever. That's the guy who writes us those Halo updates. Scary! ;) (Wirehead 18:07:14 UTC) (permalink)
Louis is GONE!
Just a quick heads-up to HBO visitors - I'm heading out on vacation tomorrow morning, to a place that's warm, and serves drinks with little umbrellas in them, and has no net access. Ding and Wirehead and Crux (well, maybe not Crux) will be here to pick up the slack... but mail will not be answered. (It will still be READ - you can send artwork, or stories, or whatever, and they'll add it to the appropriate sections - but please don't expect a reply before I get back.) Here's hoping that no super-hi-res screenshots get released in the next 8 days... (I can't believe I just said that.) (Louis Wu 03:01:55 UTC) (permalink)
super-hi-res screenshots... mmmm.
Snow in Seattle didn't stop Matt from sending a seriously meaty Halo Update to the good folks of Rampancy.net... though it did make him rant a bit about SUV-driving wusses. Almost every point is tasty... but the two that got me were
- The chain gun for the Jeep is now fully textured. Rob is working on a new gun intended for "fodder-type" opponents; the geometry is almost done and texturing should be another couple of days.
- The script for Halo's single-player campaign is about 30% done. (Don't confuse this with the story itself, which is more-or-less finished at this point, and should completely satisfy those of you who like Bungie games for the story.)
Good story... that's key. What I REALLY want to know, though, is... what's a "fodder-type" opponent? And can I make my friends play as them in netgames? Go read all the details for yourself! (Louis Wu 02:08:26 UTC) (permalink)
