Ask Goran

[SALvation]

Goran (programmer for SS2) has kindly agreed to answer some Sam 2 questions that GameMecca members have. If you have a question that you would like to ask the developers, post it here. I will take the best ones and forward them on to him and the team.

[merkwannabe]

I guess this isn't a great question, but:


Will SS2 have the same feel and physiques as SS:se or will this game be a complete change that will afford more fans and perhaps lose the small fan base it has created?

[OUTLAWS 9.99repeating^32]

Will Serious Sam 2's multiplayer bodies take different amount of damage depending on where they are hit(ie head shots, body shots, etc)?

[OUTLAWS 9.99repeating^32]

Will Serious Sam 2's multiplayer mode allow server hosts to disable certain weapons from maps, and disable powerups from maps?

[Burn the Witch]

If any, what mistakes or pitfalls do you think could have been avoided in the first two incarnations of the Serious Sam franchise? What is the team being careful to avoid this time around?

[Asian Invasian]

Will there be a team fragmatch and or capture the flag?

[11011101]

Will the knife still be there as well as the weapon based movement speeds in multiplayer?

[BlackWolf]

will there be a automatic download of maps if u join servers with maps u dont have?

[EXEcution]

What features will SS2 offer that will put it ahead of the competition?

[OUTLAWS Tip]

:bawling: I hope there will be no 3rd person view...

[ME BIGGD01]

Can you charge a little more for the game so croteam can financially be capable of fixing the bugs when one is found?

i think i phrased it wrong
i mean to say yo the people to post questions instead of requests.
English helps. :thumbs:

[Dangerous Dan]

this may be cliche, but here it goes:

1) will the fast movement with the knife still be avaliable in fragmatch

2) does the netcode work better or worse than the existing serious sam: TSE netcode

[leon]

�E Does vehicle (jeep and airplane) appear like "Halo" and so on?

�E Can SS2 use name-tag like SS-SE?

[Sauron]

Dunno if it has been asked be4 but :


1: Will there be options to modify the game? For example turn certain weapons on/off? Turn Powerups on/off?

2: Will there be different game modes like CTF, TDM, ...? If yes what kind of game modes are planned?

3: Will there be a better support of playermade maps/mods? For example autodownload of maps?

4: Will there be an option to turn on Weaponstay?

5: Will there still be a coop mode for the Singleplayer part of the game?

6: Will there be a higher maximal player number on the servers?

OK that&#39;s all that comes to my mind atm (just woke up :) )

[SALvation]

Thanks guys. These questions along with some others have been sent over to Goran. You&#39;ll see an announcement when the feature is ready.

Goran (programmer for SS2) has kindly agreed to answer some Sam 2 questions that GameMecca members have. If you have a question that you would like to ask the developers, post it here. I will take the best ones and forward them on to him and the team.
My questions pertain to the single player aspect:

1. Will Sam come up against any Mad Zombie Floating Cows?

2. If so, what will they be pulling down, after taxes?

3. Will Sam face off against any Marauding Children? (Don&#39;t believe that could happen? Try dressing up as a Teletubbie and spending a day shopping at a mall, then you&#39;ll see.)

4. If i may suggest toughening up the Kleers a little? Instead of growling menacingly, how about dressing them in high heels and wigs, then have them periodically break into a rendition of "Do-Re-Mi"... except in the wrong key. That&#39;d be a good reason to open fire.

5. Will Sam finally have a cyber dog?

6. If i continue to take the mickey out of this clearly gracious thread, will Salvation shave off my foreskin?

7. If so, will Dark Leviathan somehow be involved?
