yeh its seperated torso rotates to aim and missiles tilt to fire (seeing as storm is arced in CA)

Angle those missile pods, that would make it look meaner and appear to have a slightly lower centre of gravity, plus it would make it look wider. Good legs and body, though.Otherside wrote:

I can actually see why smoth gets the RAEG. he posts a "this is my interpretation of the AK" and people rip it up. and you [for example purposes only] post a similar thing of a Storm and people go "neet"
I think there's a difference, when people see the spheron or this storm and you say "this is the new storm" they just say "pfff, no it isn't". it's a lot less plausible than the AK.smoth wrote:*nods*Pressure Line wrote:*adds in obligatory BAWWing about it not looking like a Storm*

I just mean crazy models with the same name as units people like don't have the impact as updated models of units they like.smoth wrote:? I didn't understand that paragraph at all what is the spheron and "it's a lot less plausible than the AK."
I don't follow.

I'm just wondering about the "new" units like SphereBot and this one - is there any plan for a consistent theme for them? Or are you guys just winging it?

CA is not supposed to fit the Total Annihilation design aesthetic. The units are not intended to be the same as before in name, role, concept or appearance. CA will eventually not be CA at all. It's a collaborative project which began with what most TA mods had, and is directed toward a realized game with only the ghost of legacy in design.
I am redesigning the entire tech tree based on Saktoth's Spherebot. These are my rough public notes for the anti-air mech.
This is the only one I have thus far submitted for consideration. It was not received well, in fact after requesting input, I received none. I do not believe it was recognized at all.
However, I am drafting the entire set. I'm renaming them too, tentatively. I can't model, I can barely texture, but I will deliver something others are willing to work with.
Just... yeah. Greek, I was thinking Norse for "Core".Code: Select all
Lykou - Light Infantry Adrastos - Heavy Infantry Iasthais - Supporter Iapetos - Artillery Oideus - EMP Charger Priam - Rocket Skirmisher Themis - Constructor
Now, that said, Smoth's new AK model is both reminiscent of the original and seems reasonable for the developing aesthetic for the side which derives from "Core".
