Err Mr Member I believe that was my point.

Josh 04-11-2010 01:56 AM

Scrabtrapman, questions are supposed to have a question mark at the end.

What is this? It says Meetle at the bottom, but I thought that Meetles were these things:

1%ers were an early concept for Meetles. They are an industrial race of bikers.

I'd assume.

Wil 04-11-2010 02:34 AM

Correct. Do a search for 1%ers to find more information over the forums.

I thought the latter was just a pupa of the former.

Oh, and I think STM's point was that his statement was an answer rather than a question. Not that it really helps him, since no-one asked what BS and S'MO BS meant.

Wil 04-11-2010 03:44 AM

My point is that it was neither a question nor an answer.

The Meetle grub is the bigger thing in this image:

It looks quite plausible to me that all three could be different life stages of Meetles.

Wil 04-11-2010 03:07 PM

Even the one that has completely different numbers of limbs, eyes and tails?

Sekto Springs 04-11-2010 05:34 PM

The purple things are early concepts of fuzzles, right?

Phylum 04-11-2010 07:46 PM



The above is, as Max said, a grub.

:

Meetles are a wildlife that starts out as a larva and can turn into one of two adult forms depending on its diet. If it eats a herbivorous diet, it becomes peaceful and gentle, and is used by Mudokons. If it eats meat, it becomes an aggressive Mug, used as living tanks by the Glukkons.

A Mug.


http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__...b/RAMO0031.jpg

Possibly the other form. EDIT: Or a Mug without armour.

Sekto Springs 04-11-2010 10:51 PM

The thing in the middle is the grub. I'm pretty sure the purple things are early fuzzles.
I personally liked the feathered fuzzles.

Phylum 04-11-2010 11:45 PM

That's what I meant. I'm not sure about the little purple balls; they do look like fuzzles.

Grub with Fuzzles

A Meetle with native armor

A Meetle without armour.

Mugs with Industrial armor

Wil 04-12-2010 02:14 AM

Xavier has it correct, although I believe those are Mugs without industrial armour.

Mugs without armour:


Mug with armour (and one without):


And for fun, a Mudokon riding an armoured, decorated Meetle:

Cool, a shame that all this was cancelled.

I have a question now (gasp) I know that monsaic lines is habited by a few mudokons but where do these mudokons come from since they have know mother mudokon residing, are they escapists like abe or mudokons from other tribes.

The grub thing and the beetle thing. The eye-and-pincery one looks too different, now I look at it again.

Sam is not the only Mudokon queen. What's more, we don't know how long she's been captive for; it's possible those mudokons were born before she gave herself to the Vykkers. Also, some of them may have possibly escaped on their own.

Sekto Springs 04-12-2010 11:15 PM

That Mug concept art is new to my eyes. Did you recently dig it up?

Phylum 04-12-2010 11:36 PM

Were Meetles/Mugs supposed to be in MO, or just HoO?

Sekto Springs 04-12-2010 11:37 PM

MO too. They appeared in some early game visualizations as a means of aerial transport.

Wil 04-13-2010 03:34 AM

I don't think very much was done for Hand of Odd at all. It was meant to make use of the A.L.I.V.E. 2 engine's fantastic environment-simulating and character/status interaction elements which were all intended for MO. They weren't in MO, so Hand of Odd was pretty much out of the question.

Jordan 04-13-2010 12:30 PM

Can't say I've ever seen those pictures before. The Mugs look really freaky.

Yup, a couple of months ago, even if I can't seem to remember where.

STM 04-15-2010 04:21 AM

It's in the first ten years book I know that, I was looking at it a few weeks ago

MCDime2 04-15-2010 06:12 AM

thanks to this thread my questions have been answered, top stuff

No it's not.

STM 04-16-2010 12:02 PM

The mugs oh right no sorry i thought for some reason you meant the meetles, where's the mug art?

Wil 04-16-2010 03:26 PM

Blimey.

Sekto Springs 04-16-2010 04:45 PM

Forgive the boy. He's slow.

STM 04-17-2010 05:01 AM

Scuse me T_T
