I like it, but I kinda envisioned Bios to be a bit more... thin. He's kinda tubby (lol) and also, Bios were genetically engineered. I sorta feel that means they'd be thinner but stronger. Also, maybe a little bit darker-suited. And a more helmet-y-looking helmet.

Regarding the Bios, would personnel cloaks for everyone be too unbalanced? Even with small amounts of energy (maybe enough for 30 seconds)?

Give them the same time as a bios scout with cloak 1, about 7 seconds if i remember correctly, which of course can be upgraded to a maximum of x. Bios could be like the "Predator" of the game as they focus quiet a lot on being able to cloak.

The model looks great for your first run although hes gonna need more "unique" aspects to his armour and "style"

Spawn

P.S. Dont forget to send me any models you already build as I said I cant create from scratch(I just dont have it in me) but I am quite competant at modifying and animating already built models.

Ok .. well its not a diary ...

I'm just writing an account from a third person / narrator point of view. If I write it from one side's perspective I'd only get half the story, also people can play any faction in the game, so there is no common enemy.

However, if you like I could write diary entries for say ... GigaCorp ... IC ... Belters etc (though this could be harder to do with factions such as Rix etc) Perhaps it could even be an ongoing thing, adapting and continuing the story according to updates etc)

Perhaps even something based along the lines of DataNet transmission (hell I dont know ...)

I meant the "diary" thing as the narration of the intro movie, not as the storyline you're writing. You just keep doing your thing lol. Sorry for the confusion /ninja.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ninja:" border="0" alt="ninja.gif" />

Dont mean to spam unfinished models but its always good to get feedback. I figured this behemoth would be the equivelant of a cap ship.... needs turrets putting somewhere.

You dont really need turrets tbh.

They arent in the game as it is /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Lol holy crap, that thing is HUGE. I thought it was just a really cool tank, 'til I saw the dude standing near it for scale! How would you kill one of those things, nuclear bunker-busters?

EMP wave would knock it out in a second, flat /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

If the tank is made of metal, no.
