SWR Productions Forum _ Frontline News _ 1.86 Development Update X

Posted by: The_Hunter 24 Oct 2015, 19:34

Hello everyone, we're back again with another update for ROTR development.

The ATV Humvee now has a new design incorporating a full armor body and turret. The air-dropped vehicle also has a new UAV in the form of the PDL drone, which will intercept incoming missiles, but the drone will self-destruct after a short period of time.

By 2049, the Russian Ground Forces had suffered severe casualties in its fleet of armored vehicles. In order to halt the relentless Euro/American advance into Germany, Russia retrofitted old T-55 tanks and transformed them into cheap armored personell carriers called the BTR-55 Grizzly. The Grizzly sports a 30 mm auto-cannon that can be further supplemented with a Kornet anti-tank missile once Assault Armaments has been unlocked, however the compressed space of the T-55 means the Grizzly can only transport two passengers.

As always, we would like to remind all of you out there that there will be another 1.86 test build live stream on this Sunday:

Nice to see the flying toliet drones from Metal gear making a return! Now with 50% more lazers!

I thought the ATV humvee couldnt look any better, you outdid yourself Hunter...we just lost the guy kneeling and pointing all the time but rather got a turret that can actually engage targets without moving the humvee.

So, the Build List is full now. I say 1) Command Center, 2) Industrial Plant or 3) A switch menu option.

But then it'll be split between the generals.

^That's exactly what I had in mind. There will be enough place when you split all of it. SoraZ probably meant before the 2.0. Or she's just playin' with our nerves?

That's something that is not clearly defined yet; the unit was added mostly because Hunter has a soft spot for the BTR-T

The general gist of it was "dedicated stealth detection", but it also turned out to be -- with its armor-set and smoke barrage ability -- quite the meat shield and defense breacher, as well as a hard counter to anything bullet-based. It can solo several Humvees, and even a Quad Cannon, and survive; the later upgrades make it even more tanky and potent.

Is the turret of the ATV fixed to the groove through which the gunner rotates it ?
