Yes, but there are characters in different phases of gravity at the same time. Especially in multiplayer.

Meh, that should never be a problem for developers. Like I said, there is actually only one "gravity" per se, any other wall walking on those things is just an added "force"... Hence they can rule in that contact with "gravity track 1" will cause normal gravity to be ignored for that player and the track will hold their position... Simple really..

How?

It's just a game. It's not as if you're physically upside down.

True, but people do get motion sickness and are affected by these things, especially some parts of Half-Life 2 for instance, it all depends on the person, but it can have quite an affect as it's confusing the brain still, just in a different way.

However they do it, it's damn awesome in multiplayer running around shooting people walking up walls and stuff.

I found myself going a bit dizzy whilst playing this. Probably doesn't help sitting so close to the 2405 screen.

I hope that never happens to me as i love playing FPS games, my mate gets this when he watches me sometimes.

I think ill have a quick go on the MP and see what the crack is.

Just came first on the scoreboard

The performance is really good too.

Excellent frame rates and the levels loaded extremely quickly.

Swapped my pre-order to the PC from the 360.

I used to map for UT and you could do similar things with that. Just different zones with different properties

What does the alternate fire mode on the rocket launcher do?

MeatLoaf · 26 Jun 2006 at 17:31

When the demo ended did it just dump you back at the menu? No end of demo or thanks for playing or anything?

It spits out some blobby particles that create a shield.
