One of my favourite pieces of trivia regarding Scrabs is found in this piece of concept art I found a whileback whilst trawling TOGG. The idea of these sacred and near dying Scrabs creating these spires to their deceased has always been interesting to me.

As others said, Scrabs scared me a lot when I was a kid, I still get nervous when that sound/music starts when a Scrab is near, and those screams they made. And about the sounds in MO, yeah, it was weird to have different audios for them. I remember I played another PS1 game and the Scrab's sound was there too, so it probably was from a "Games ' sounds sample" or something like that, used by developers for their games.

The Scrabs remind me of Velociraptors from Jurassic Park, I love them as creatures, I hope we get to see more creatures in a future like the Scrabs, violent killer "machines".

About the Scrab cakes, I agree with you, they seem like candies and goodies. The paramite pies and meech munchies looked more "yummy" and more like food.

I look forward to seeing Scrabs and more so the shrykull in Soulstorm :D I bet they look monsterously badass

I second that. Can't wait to see what Soulstorm looks like in General. I wonder if it's only Abe and the muds that are gonna look slightly different or other characters too. The glukkon though in the newly released photo doesn't look to revamped.

I haven't even thought about anything else getting redesigns, and honestly, that would be awesome if so. The glukkon in the photo does look the same, but I have my hopes up.

I just realized something. The color palettes for scrabs and paramites are switched on their food box art.

I think it's more of a triangle.

Scrabs take the green of Paramites, Paramites take the brown of Meeches, and Meeches take the red of Scrabs.

If there's one thing I'd want more over anything in Soulstorm is that they keep the original sounds of the scrabs. They were utterly terrifying and truely alien sounding to me.


..That and the removal of that spiral graphic popping up as abe chants.

Funnily enough: the ending of NnT had the right chant effect when big face teleported Abe away.

Same here the screeching of a Scrab is terrifying and to me perfect.

Well... that's if scrabs are still in Soulstorm.

All we know is that the game is a re imagining of Exoddus. But I remember some discussions last year about Exoddus being too big to be completely rebuilt. It could be that some less interesting parts have to be cut. And to be fair the vaults didn't add much to the story.

My point is: don't assume something is going to be in Soulstorm just because it was previously in Exoddus.

Point taken. Though I really do hope they are still in Soulstorm.

The probability of having Scrabs in Soulstorm is still high.

Too big to be rebuilt? I mean yeah Exodus was a nice good playthrough but it's not like it was World of Warcraft or anything.... If they could make the game as it was in 1998 and call it a "bonus game" they can make something with just as many levels in 2017, assuming they have the money and the time that'd grant. :\

Good eyes, now try to read the descriptions beneath each cut of scrumptious Mudmeat.

Hey, I know you! You were being absent for a long time!
