Conduit 2 - Vehicles & New Online Mode Added

[Crazybone126]

It beats me as to why High Voltage Software has only announced this via Facebook, but it's apparent that vehicles have been added to Conduit 2's single player campaign. As of now, it's not known if vehicles have been added to the online section of the game. If vehicles are in the game, then the Quantum3 engine must have gotten a big lift in the physics department. We can only assume at the moment. It'd be nice for the enemies to not have those canned animations like they did in The Conduit 1. High Voltage has also announced that a new online mode, by the name of "Control Point," has been added to Conduit 2. It's safe to assume this could be similar to Call of Duty's "Domination," or maybe even Halo's "King of the Hill." Hopefully, High Voltage software will be releasing new tidbits about the vehicles and new online mode as time goes on.

Good to hear this confirmed after Bill Sullivan said they were testing them.

No offense but what are you talking about?

LJ, I can confirm that new death animations are in fact in the game.

Oooh, in what fashion?

Don't really know much more than that. Don't even remember where I read it at but they are adding more complexity to all the animations including death sequences.

I'm happy about that because really they said that they were going to make a potpourri of different death animations to where you would think Conduit 1 was using a physics engine because of they wide variety. When the game came out, I just saw the same ol' animations. I also hope they add a variety to the way the player himself dies. That whole hand in front of you thing just doesn't seem to work for me anymore. Never did, truthfully. I'd kind of like to see my dead body, maybe that's just me.

I didn't mind the first person death sequence too much because it kept the illusion going of being the character though I do agree that it needed more variety to it.


There is also this:

# Physics Rigid bodies, ragdolls, and physics-based animation.

So they have ragdoll physics but won't use them? I guess with all they have into Conduit they can't get it to work without cutting stuff?

I don't know. Perhaps they are using the physics API now. I mean they have vehicles running in it now and that most certainly was now part of the original engine.

We can only hope at the moment. I really hope we can get some gameplay of the game soon. On their Facebook, they are making it seem that way.
