Title: GES Update 8/24/07
Post by: Xanatos on August 24, 2007, 07:12:46 am
This week's more of a surprise: The almighty Grenade Launcher! While you only were able to use it in one measly singleplayer mission in Goldeneye 64, this thing was a popular and favorite weaponset amongst those who enjoyed playing a lot of GE64 multiplayer. The first thing that is notably different about the brand new model and texturing by Christopher Barnett & KonradBeerbaum (an innovation to ArmoredFury's previous grenade launcher model) is his fine wooden-texture touch to the handles, among various other graphically slick innovations to the Grenade Launcher from the original game.

You'll be blowing up people from the end of a badass weapon in no time. Just don't go against someone with this using a Klobb.

Coming up next week, Boris is going for a cigarette at here.

Approved.

Yes, that's the sound of me not complaining about anything, which you don't often hear.

I count at least two: Surface and Jungle.
Awesome model by the way.

It looks amazing!  I only have one question and that is can we still bounce grenades from it off the walls?

Thanks i like it better than the original one i made but we thought that it didn't look enough like the one from the game so i just used the one out of the original game as a basis and went from there.  Konrad did a great job with the texturing though he really made it look more like a realistic gun  ;D

I really like this one a lot.  The wooden handles are especially a nice tough.  Looks very true to the original, and yet it also stands out on it's own.

Can't wait to try this one out!

oh lord that is sweet, I can't wait to see how the inclusion of the grenade launcher will play out in multiplayer, I remember I had always wished it would have been usable in multiplay back when I was a kid. Speaking of the Klobb, how are those coming along? I can't wait for the Klobb to be in GE:S, it's going to be so funny.
