If I had that mod I'd never be bored of NPC battles again. If only discovery had things like this.

Itano Circus is amazing. I played it, the view distance has been changed so you can see NPC's from a whole tradelane away and all sorts of stuff.

The explosion effects are fantastic, and as you said the NPC fights are epic.

I love it. Alot.

More bloom... some sort of swarm missile pod... flak cannons... longer engine trails...

Sorry, not impressed.

(And Patriots and Bloodhounds taking down dreadnoughts? Eh...)

Swarm missiles again, I really don't think so ... We got rid of those a while ago. And stress test ? With how
many players on ? I suspect with our load, it wouldn't be quite the same I'm afraid.
But hey, whatever floats ya boat ...

This is way more epic, it actually involves players ... http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=30065

It wasn't an online stress test f00ls, it was a FL engine stress test. Stuff like this would never fly online without causing immense lag, unless somebody hacked the FL DLLs somehow.

But like Loh said to me the other day: FL engine can handle a lot more than it is handling now... just check the awesome gun effects in the 4.85 promo video.

If I compare both vids I have to admit, that the Itano Circus One definitely looks WAY better. The Disco one somehow bores me...
And like Bodo said: It's just an engine stress test.
Why485 really makes phantasic videos... and IC as a great mod (unfortunately nearly nobody actually plays it online...)
But Discovery definitely has its own charme

Yeah.

For multiplayer/ roleplaying, Discovery>Itano Circus

But Itano Circus>Discovery if you like to fight NPC's.


But I still think the NPC AI should be modified in 485 to make them funner to fight rather than just waiting for them to come at you, shoot, then start dodging.
