In Response To: Re: This is what I call the Mother of All Prequels (Hamish Sinclair)

: Nice. I like the pics.

: One comment. Are you rewriting the PID backstory? The dates you give on the
: page don't agree with what we know from the game.

: The Germans arrived in Mexico in 1938. This is before the war with Germany
: actually began but that's Bungie for you. ;-)

: The Cubans were given the pyramid maps 40 years after they were stolen from
: the Germans in Mexico. Hence the earliest the Cubans could have arrived at
: the pyramid was 1978 not 1962.

: Cheers
: Hamish

Oh, no. No rewriting or whatsoever. That was just a quick thing I wrote yesterday to put the site online - it's not accurate but very dramatic. The scenario itself will have the same story (and errors) as the original game.

: Erm, well, on that top secret folder is something written about
: 'geheimstatzpolezei' but the correct writing would be 'geheime
: staatspolizei' just wanted to point that out.

I found that pic on a website for collectors of spy cameras used during the cold war and though it was supposed to be accurate. Damn wannabe spy photographers!

: What about resting, what abou crystals. Are you using hi-res textures, Aleph
: 1??? I'm not nitpicking or complaing. I'm just wondering. Please keep us
: informed of how it is developing. :-)

You'll be picking health powerups instead of resting and you'll be able to use crystals, but they won't shatter - you'll be able to restore their power with crystal sherds. Still, I don't recomend you to go wasting the blue crystal before reaching the upper part of the pyramid. For other things like hi-res textures, it's too early to talk about it. As always, I'm open to suggestions. And help.
