I am aware of what you are talking about
pulse BEAMS
not
pulse WAVES
and I stand by everything I have said thus far
Quoting Timmaigh, reply 6I know what are you talking about, the beam mounted on sides of the Kortul and in the center of Vulkoras. I do not mind its short duration, although it could be perhaps very slightly longer. But i believe it could use some facelift, in the same way the wave cannon projectiles did, they could make it bit more "glowing" and diffused.
Yeah, and when you look at that teaser, in the brief moment when Vasari fleet is shown, one of the ships, probably Vulkoras fires it and it goes THROUGH the structure, as it explodes. Similar effect, if possible, would be nice ingame as well.
BTW those wave cannon projectiles, although they now look cooler, they are far too big, when fired by either Enforcers or the Kultorask. They are good when fired by Orkulus, though. Anyway, did not Orkulus use to fire purplish projectiles before?
/p
The Orkulus had a unique weapon called Destructors (or Chaos Bolts in the game files) that fired purple bolts of electricity.
Beams cannot be coded to go through things, even with particle effects; it just doesn't work correctly no matter what...
I was not talking about Destructors, but small projectiles, which are fired by Orkulus, before you even actually do a weapon upgrades, which gives you those Destructors. These projectiles were purple/pink IIRC, now when i attacked Orkulus at Artefct World it fired greenish projectiles, similar to the stuff fired by Heavy Cruisers.
Tough luck with those beams, it would be really cool, if it was possible.
EDIT: Just played a bit with entity files to give me all Titans at the start of the game, to take a look at them. Found out that Vasari Loyalist one fires TEC beams and autocannons, lol. Shame the one, i actually care about most is the unfinished one. BTW i hope, once its done, it will fire phase missiles from those "wings" in exactly same manner like Orkulus does, it looks awesome and now with those new visuals it would be even more awesome.
Other thing, bit unrelated, i was bit dissapointed with the Titan textures. Especially with this "Vorastra", its fairly well textured from the top, but from the bottomside, there is basically nothing. No visible hull plates or stuff like on Orkulus, no windows, nothing. I was hoping, there would be shitload of windows actually, as its meant to be a mobile homeworld. I know its not done yet, but i suppose the textures are pretty much final.
