Multiplayer models?

**Chainsaw Guardian** · 06-19-2006, 03:55 PM

Sorry if this has been talked about before. But how many MP models can you choose from?

Another question I have is are the Drones bigger in stature than the humans? If so wouldn't that be kind of un fair for gameplay? If you get into cover more of your body will stick out if you are bigger.

EDIT: Ok, so it looks liek you can pick from 8 player models. 4 humans and 4 drones. Thanks for clearing it up for me guys.

EDIT: Damn, I should have posted in the Multiplayer sectino of the Forum..

if by models u mean character then there are 4 for COGs (the four main characters on one team) and there are 4 for the locusts, drone, theron guard, and two more that i forgot at the moment, we are not sure i u can custimize ur character just yet, but in the elimination style game type we saw at e3 u can only be those 8 characters, and no the locust drones are just as big as marcus and the others (mainly b/c of the armor), the boomers are the 7 ft behemuths(sp)

There are 4 CoG and 4 locust. All the models are basically the same in height, size, speed and movement.
Human models = Marcus, Dom, Gus, Barid
Locust = Drone, Drone with mask, Theron Guard, Theron Sentinal

EDIT - General Ramm might replace the Drone with mask.

TROMPIKA GAMPER? where does it say that? it sounds like a demented pokemon
EDIT- i know what you mean now its a Troika Gamper, it looks like a red version of a drone. http://gearsrealm.com/gallery/albums...r%20-%2023.jpg
so that could replace either the drone with mask or general raam

Wow, you can pick from 8 player models? That's crazy. It's going to be hard to choose. I will probably end up picking the human model with the full headed helmet on, or one of those drones with the all white head.

thats exctly right, except the part about "drone with mask" i think its a trompick gamper or something, i posted that once, and it's not Gen. Raam b/c he is a specific locust, maybe an important character.....not like any other locust who can just be killed

**Uday23** · 06-19-2006, 04:28 PM

no (for the game type we saw at e3) there are 4 models for each

Ok, so there are still 8 models to choose from, 4 on each side.

**Uday23** · 06-19-2006, 04:30 PM

btw im not sure if the Troika Gamper is the locust with read armor, that could be the theron guard or sentinal, but there are only 4 locusts models (just like there are only 4 COGs)

Drone, Theron sentinal, Theron Guard, Troika Gamper

You don't get to pick, one team is randomly assigned the CoG the other team gets Locust. Then each player is randomly given a character. Because all the characters are the same size it wont effect game play

Drone, Theron sentinal, Theron Guard, Troika Gamper

In the pic he looks like he/she has red skin

**Chainsaw Guardian** · 06-19-2006, 04:36 PM

Well maybe you can pick a certain model you want if there is a free for all game mode?

**Flaming Hornets** · 06-19-2006, 04:41 PM

Ok i think i have finally worked it out
4 locust models = Drone, Theron Gaurd, Theron Sentinal (red armour), Troika Gamper (red skin)

if u say so im not sure......

o and we are not sure that u dont get to pick ur character (or maye even customize it) b/c the only gametypes we saw at e3 was the team elimintaion, but who know EPIC might have a regular respawn game(hopefully) and maybe u can even customize ur characters

im not sure, but if u say so i belive u, its really not that big a deal.......

**Chainsaw Guardian** · 06-19-2006, 05:37 PM

the blood wouldnt perfectly cover his skin. and blood doesnt stay on the players.

**Uday23** · 06-19-2006, 05:47 PM

its not blood that makes him red, that just his armor/skin........i am just not sure who is who

**Flaming Hornets** · 06-20-2006, 07:00 AM

if you can't edit your character then....
Red armor with white skin is the sentinel
Red skin is the gamper

I hope, it would be a pain otherwise! I'm not a fan of getting killed then waiting 3 mins till respawn.

**SkateXer99** · 06-20-2006, 02:15 PM

We don't know how many models there are per team. Someone from EPIC stated there's man 4 for each, and smoeone hinted that Anya would be one of the COG's

it could never happen b/c we already have the 4 COG guys, gus barid dom and marcus, anya could not be a part of MP b/c she would be smaller and harder to hit, which would make the game unfair

We do the there are 4 per team- Gus, Dom, Marcus and Barid.
EPIC could always pull something out and add a new character. Maybe we could play a Rod and Cliffy

**seph** · 06-20-2006, 02:22 PM

If Anya was a playable MP character, they would have to come up with yet another Locust being too. :/

**SkateXer99** · 06-21-2006, 07:03 PM

Whoah, I just looked at my post, and it's totally typo'd.

We do know there's the 4 COG models, and the 4 locust models, but who said there's only going to be 4 each?

no one, we are just throwing ideas and assumptions out!

**360GearsFanatic** · 06-21-2006, 07:27 PM

i think you should have the original 4 models and then if you dont want any of those, there is a 5th model that is COMPLETELY customizable...thats what i think *cry* but no one listens to me!!!
