I gave seen the mine cart and the car on fire but is there any cover you can actually control and move were you want? Like a dumpster on wheels?

Cliffy has hinted many times that there may be vehicls in the game. If they are, i think that those could qualify as moving cover.

cliffy said sometimes u will have to make cover or move it, so ya every once and a while u will have to move something, not sure though

not sure, it kinda seems like it was a cut-scene when Marcus and dom moved the car, but with EPIC i bet it will look like a cut-scene but u will actually control it, im not sure, but maybe u can actually control some movable cover...

Yeah you will on some moving covers.

**RIGOR_MORTIS** · 07-17-2006, 07:06 PM

It will be like Metal Gear Solid where you just put a cardboard box over your head and then the Locust walk buy and get a question mark over their head. LOL... Just kidding.

Still you can continue from here.

PS: You seen Hard Boiled by John Woo, btw?

that would rock like say you're on a hilly street and like 100 locust are coming up the hilly street after you and you see a dumpster so you grab it and stand on the back of it like a grocery buggie and you ride down the hill at like 75 MPH and squash all the locust and make loccy pancakes with em

( forget the last part and think about the possibilities

....)

I'd appretiate it, but will you be able to actually control it or just push down a hill and watch?

You got me man, its just speculation at this post. Unless a Epic guy posts final judgement. #wink wink# #nudge nudge#

I really liked that dumpster idea. I think it'd be funny as heck.

i found this here http://www.xboxyde.com/news_3141_en.html -- Cliff: We have pushable cars, pillars that get knocked over, and a really good collection of fragile cover. If you hide behind a sofa for too long it will degrade and eventually collapse into a useless pile of wood. The entire world isn’t destroyable (where would you take cover then?) but there is a good chunk of it available to wreck. -- not what i was looking for, maybe he was talking about the xo5 demo maybe he wasnt

what i underlined made me wonder if they are going to take the cheesey route and make the cover just disapear after its taken a certain amount of damage or if they are actually going to make the cover disapear in various ways

oh yeah and i remember an interview where cliffy says that all wooden cover is destructable and that he loves shooting at a locust thats taking cover behind a bookshelf and once the cover is gone the locust stares at him like a deer in the headlights or something like that- sounds sweet ill try to find that one too

**RoNin** · 07-18-2006, 05:09 AM

Thats awesome , never read that article, but if there is much to wreck and move, then its really cool.And what ive read from it thenhe said that some object gettinggamage in certain time will fall apart(disapearing).
