So, I imagine this would get kinda flamed on aomh cuz its rather old, but whatchu guys think, aom2 or aoe I or II remake? or something new? I think our chances are pretty good.
For anyone who thinks its halo wars 2, well thats a bit unlikely.
There are only a few tabs that could mean anything to us, Catapult Projectiles, Engineer, Silver, (Shade in?) Desert, Oracle, and Archemedes work.
The archemedes one and Oracle are the most in favor of us. Oracle could be a tech in any game, but archemedes demands that the game is set before somewhere in ancient greece (287BC) which is a good sign. A few people thought that the one to the left of "silver" was "trees walking" but i personally did not think that made sense because no one writes that way... One of the top ones might say hypasist model, but thats also a stretch
Can anyone decipher the tab under the archemedes one? I think it says "ballista L1 modeling range for texture"
Thoughts, opinions, obvious facts i managed to miss out on?
You might want to note that next to him is an Xbox controller and what appears to be a console in front of him.
As a good sign I can't imagine that Halo Wars would have "silver" or "catapult projectiles" involved with them, so we can at least expect some sort of pregunpowder era game.
AOM2 would be awesome. While Dawn of Fantasy looks nice, it just doesn't have the tie ins to mythology or the various real world cultures that would make AOM2 great.
- Would be amazing, like upgrading the cultures or something and new ones. - Agree with necro, DoF is something I will probably get, but its not the same kind of pull aom has on me. -Any way, with all the great mods and fan made changes to aom on aomh, theres arguably enough content to make aom go into halfway to aom2, i mean, if you just download all the great mod game changes, quality fitting new units and textures, and campaigns and levels, its almost like half a new game.
- Hmm, wonder what "Cap Hot" means? And "Mascot Concepts"?
Although engineer is a covenant alien, from halo. Archamedes could be an idea for a covenant ship name or something, i mean theres the arc and stuff in halo. Shade is a turret in halo. Oracle is referred to in halo. Desert could be an area in halo.
Who knows though. A new, hopefully improved halo, (on account of the suckish, i have heard, halo OSDT, and mediocre halo 3) could be good, and aom2 would be the kind of kick to make the aomh community explode, it would be great.
but for Mascot concepts, well they kinda need a mascot dontcha think? As a new company they kinda have no symbol.
Oh and for anyone who doesn't know, this is a picture of a guy from Robot Entertainment (founded by ES workers after it got disbanded). There are a couple more you can find in the news section of aomh that are less helpful. One positive sign is at least some strange wood texture that implies an older setting.
