IDEA: Tunnels

Post by adimosh »

If you guys are working on bridges, why not tunnels as well? Could the game engine support that? I suppose that, if one can do bridges and have, basically, an extra elevation system above a certain area, why not an elevation system under the usual map?

This would add an extra level of dynamism to the game: the possibility to tunnel through natural obstacles and pop up in the enemy base.

Thoughts, please.

Every bridge can be considered to be merely a tunnel below it.

This still turns this mountain into a bridge above the tunnel road (though probably an impassable bridge, but i still think bridges and tunnels are one and the same concept).:

Well Earth 2150 had tunels...That feature rocked anyway earth 2150 had similar concept as warzone 2100 but more supreme because of good graphics,day and night,you can choose on your units and buildings to have turned off and on lights!

Its better then warzone,it aint fast but its great,that game even have mechs!!!

I'd love to be able to drill a tunnel through a mountain, however I can't see any usefulness to it in a game like warzone. I can just transport troops by air to get them anywhere on the map.

I do quite like the sound of mechs though - maybe the larger cyborg units could look more like mech warriors?

Earth 2150 supported underground tunels...
Actualy there were like two maps,well its hard to explain.

In Earth 2150 you can switch from mission to hq and from hq to mission ultil you end mission and if you decide to switch from mission to hq or oposite the mission will not end and there will be still real time combat and that...

Earth 2150 is far supreme and it was released in 1999 (europe) and in 2000(America & Asia)...Anyway there are three Earth 2150 games,a trilogy!!It rocked!

Someone should have searched on the forum if the idea of tunnels was already discussed, and maybe even carry forward that discussion viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3713&start=0&hilit=tunnel

I don't think earth2150 is "far supreme" or better than Warzone 2100. If what you say is true, then you wouldn't ever be here on this forum in the first place.

So you're basically saying E2150 looks nicer than WZ2100? There's a lot of UI work going in to WZ v3.0 which is making it look much nicer. A lot of the graphics are still from the original release many years ago, which is why they look dated, but over time they will get better. Remember that WZ is now an open source project so people are just working on it in their spare time, they aren't getting paid to work on it 8+ hours day like commercial games.

I've actually been playing The Moon Project recently.

Earth 2150 is a great game, and I don't think it's "better" or "worse" than Warzone...they're both great games.
