Visual Effects

[NeoSuperior]

what i always wondered about was, that in CT when you were in snipe mode, a flash could blind you although you didnt actually look at the bang through the scope. How will this be handled in PS?

Also will a flashbang cancel snipe mode while being in EMF/motiontracker vision mode as it was in CT?

I think that didn't make sense. So I guess we'll 'fix' that. Depends on balance, but we'll see.

Hi all,

The final vid before we take a short break from the weekly vids:
Lasers effect.

Mind the loud noise! :P

Enjoy!

[VaNilla]

The lasers look pretty cool, obviously the intruders detected thing is work in progress but it all looks nice :P

[frvge]

The funny thing is, I think these are even placeholder lasers :p. The real lasers have 'dust' in them. Aw well, still shows that lasers are working ;)

[DreadStunLock]

Why would lasers have dust in them again?

Also, really nice effect, will we be able to control on how long the fade out is on the lasers?

[CurdyMilk]

I think this is the best of the recent videos...minus the alarm noise of course.  Lasers look legit.  The sounds in the map are very spooky.   :)

Has it been mentioned that the angle at which the spy is holding that gun just looks reaaaaally wonky? Perhaps I'm just not looking at it right, but it looks really off. Upon another glance at the video, it's just that crosshair in the middle that's getting me.

That and you shouldn't mention Work-In-Progress so much. It's plastered on the screen, and you mentioned it at the start. No need to hammer it in 4 more times in the 2 minute video.

Lasers look cool though. Having dust stuff happen (like I assume you were getting at frvge) when there is a nearby explosion or just very rarely would be kinda cool looking. Making them roll through-able is a must though because that always felt like a sweet accomplishment.

Wonky because it's WORK IN PROGRESS! :)

GOOD POINT!

Though in all honesty I thought this video was going to be about the Merc's laser... or the laser on the Spy's gun... or ALL Lasers! Didn't expect it to be the static defense laser and nothing else. Look at what I get for assuming!!

For the record: Goodkebab has been extremely busy getting his freelance business off the ground and hasn't been able to follow all behind-the-scene progress for a while.

We still love him none-the-less, give him a big welcome back hug.

Its not only off the ground, but enough for me to start employing people.
