Ultraviolet Posted January 10, 2004 This is an idea, not a blog. I wanna see somebody implement this! 0 Share this post Link to post
Chopkinsca Posted January 10, 2004 Ultraviolet, before you start asking for help on your new mega-cool-and-whatnot project, make sure you have something to show first (screenshots, map downloads, etc). Keep in mind we've already seen thousands of upcoming projects that actually never got done. I just wanted to try it out... 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted January 10, 2004 I'm not asking for help, I'm asking somebody else to do it for me. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Draconio Posted January 11, 2004 Isn't Skulltag going to have a "Hectebus" or something like that? It probably won't look the way you describe though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted January 11, 2004 It looked like your typical silly IRC or AIM type conversation, and I wasn't really paying much attention. I put it back. 0 Share this post Link to post

0-Mephisto-0 Posted January 11, 2004 Indeed, Skulltag does have a "super-mancubus", Hectebus which is two time stronger and faster, but there are no sprite yet. 0 Share this post Link to post

DOOM Anomaly Posted January 11, 2004 When I saw Super Mancubus I thought it was a mancubus with a skin tight suit and a cape, hahaha, that would rule. :D Sounds like fun. :D 0 Share this post Link to post

Scuba Steve Posted January 11, 2004 Doctor please... if someone were to draw a set of nice sprites of a more physically fit mancubus and give it the attributes, that would be a pretty interesting idea. 0 Share this post Link to post
dr_st Posted January 11, 2004 Scuba Steve said:Doctor please... if someone were to draw a set of nice sprites of a more physically fit mancubus and give it the attributes, that would be a pretty interesting idea. You can say this about anything. "If someone were to draw a nice set of sprites of some cool monster with cool attributes, that would be a pretty interesting idea." What's the point of doing this as a modification to an already existing one? The Mancubus was designed as a fat and slow monster - that balances out its lethal attack and also makes him funny and scary at the same time. I mean, the Beastiary is cool to an extent, but maybe it's possible to be more original than Id was when they introduced the Hell Knight, eh? 0 Share this post Link to post
w M w Posted January 12, 2004 A long time ago I had a dream about doom2 (the only doom2 dream I've ever had I think) and it featured a super mancabus. Only it was still fat, just larger and augmented. The entire doom universe in the dream was very real and 3-d as was the mancabus. I think it had 4-6 cannons instead of 2. It was across a pit up on it's own platform (I was roaming around in a graveyardish platform across from the pit when I saw it) 0 Share this post Link to post
