Paramite of War 03-01-2007 01:19 PM

Its on Max's site the demo I mean

Arxryl 03-01-2007 01:22 PM

Yes. I haven't thrown one out a window, but when I succeed/fail I'll let you know.

Cullen Heath 03-01-2007 02:32 PM

No, you can't throw a Slig out of a window. There are no windows to throw them out of in the game.

And, yes, what Paramites make are webs.

Arxryl 03-01-2007 04:51 PM

Are you sure? How about in...Splinterz I think... there might be one there. You know, where you must posses a Big-Bro slig to take out all of the security.

Cullen Heath 03-01-2007 08:46 PM

:p Trust me man. I know my Munch!;)
You know that those comercials aren't the Munch's Oddysee that you play on the Xbox, right? That was when it was to be for the PS2, and when they were rushed by Microsoft after the transfer a lot of things were cut... Throwing Sligs out of windows being one. It's a bummer, I know, but oh well. I still really love the game... while most of the people bash it.

Actually it was OWI's choise, don't blame MS for it :p

Cullen Heath 03-02-2007 09:18 PM

Oh, my bad. But still, didn't Microsoft have a lot to do with it?

Xavier 03-03-2007 03:26 AM

they offered them the opportunity to be one of the launch games

Zerox 03-03-2007 03:28 AM

It's really both of their fault, to a degree. OWI for switching at such a time, and MS for rushing them. And I personally wouldn't have made it a launch game if it would compromise so much of the game. I don't see why OWI switched other than that, and if it's allegedly because of some coding problems (I think I heard that somewhere), it seems a bit odd than no other game EVER has had this problem that we (or I) know of. So I don't see what the problem was. They got the PS1 versions to work fine.
Paramites probly make webs for a number of reasons. They allow them to make previously unreachable areas, well, reachable, such as enabling better footholding on smooth rocks, climbing up to high areas, etc.

Bullet Magnet 03-03-2007 04:25 AM

Their webs are obviously for living in, and other "domestic" uses. They certainly don't use them to catch prey (as far as we know). It probably isn't sticky.

tentacle_orgy 03-09-2007 03:26 PM

Does anyone have the picture of Fangus with the cat face behind him? I've looked everywhere, even TOGG, but I can't find it.

Cullen Heath 03-09-2007 03:28 PM

I don't think there is such a picture.

Wil 03-09-2007 04:02 PM



It doesn’t currently show up in TOGG because of a magical coding bizarrity that cannot be explained by the conventional laws of logic.

Cullen Heath 03-09-2007 04:41 PM

Whoa!
I have either never seen this version of the picture, or I never noticed that. And I usually notice things.

Jordan 03-10-2007 01:19 AM

Awesome! I've never seen that picture before! But what the fluff is that cat doing there!? :lol:

EDIT: Lol, I was 11 seconds away from double posting! :lol:

Wil 03-10-2007 03:44 AM

The cat is one of the enemy characters. The world of Fangus is populated by ‘humans’ that evolved from either dogs or cats. Fangustan is invaded by cat people who are something like the Russian Mafia.

Jordan 03-10-2007 04:23 AM

:eek: Woah! Was that gonna actually be the story line of it all if it was made? Freaky! :lol:

Wil 03-10-2007 05:36 AM

That’s the backdrop. We don’t know what the actually story of Fangus is.

Cullen Heath 03-10-2007 06:16 AM

He has to escape disease or something before it gets to him.

used:) 03-10-2007 10:45 PM

That's really just the premise, not the total story.

Well I got another question, in the gabbier acution there are wannabes with 1.5 million moolah. However FlubCo. Eecutive is a glockstar and he only has
1 million moolah. So shouldnt the wannabes be glockstars?

I just thought of an answer for my own question.:p
maybe the wannabes are just bidding that much exept they dont have the money, there just going to borrow it and pay it back for the rest of their lives.

I got a question.

Q. can i have some info on the chroniclers sea rex?

Nate 03-11-2007 12:39 AM

Right about here.

moxco 03-11-2007 01:18 AM

I can't find anything about them there.

Nate 03-11-2007 04:16 AM

Sorry, my mistake.

Do a search within the forum and you'll get many answers.

Benjamin 03-14-2007 03:46 PM

Does anybody know how Abe got the eggs from the Glockstar Lulu?! i mean i didn't see anything like a video or something explaining how abe got it in the first place

Nate 03-14-2007 06:07 PM

Well, Abe and friends snuck on board Vykkers' Labs on Lulu's blimp. Once Lulu and his valet had gone inside, the muds came out of hiding and started trolleying eggs around. I would assume that they then pushed off in the blimp - leaving Lulu behind - and landed it wherever they wanted to go.

Cullen Heath 03-14-2007 06:22 PM

I think he is asking about the Gabbiar eggs. I have no idea, by the way.

Bullet Magnet 03-14-2007 06:47 PM

I think Abe and his friends mugged him on the way out. It was stated somewhere... or words to that effect.

Wil 03-15-2007 03:45 AM

No, I think it’s just a theory fans came up with. It makes sense, though.

The Daily Deception printed a photograph of Lulu begging on the streets, so he made it off Vykkers Labs before it was destroyed.

moxco 03-15-2007 11:15 AM

Yea the daily deciption also said "clumsy gluk losses gabbier"
Anyways abe probly pretty much possed lulu to hand the gabbier straight over.

Alf Shall Rise 03-17-2007 08:58 AM

Either that, or Abe, Munch, and a bunch of Mudokons came up to Lulu and stole it from him. I don't think a poor little Gluk is gonna have secruity around him.

moxco 03-17-2007 09:34 AM

Probly with a bunch of fuzzles to.

Luskan 03-18-2007 01:38 PM

Even if his personal slig would of been with him, he didn't have a gun anyway, so he would of been defenceless.

skillyaslig 03-18-2007 08:01 PM

Hello! I think abe might of possesed Lulu or Valet to get them to hand over the eggs. Or they (abe & co) might of attacked him and killed him then toke the eggs. Who knows?

ziggy 03-18-2007 08:45 PM

I don't think that Abe and his friends are that violent. That's what I think anyway. Abe probably possessed Lulu. But it was explained in a newspaper sequence, so we're not sure. I hate those newspaper things in MO so much, and really wish they were cutscenes instead.

skillya_glowi 03-19-2007 06:11 PM

I got a question for this page of the Artbook (I'm way too lazy to get my ass of the seat and get my book)
http://i13.tinypic.com/2w3uji8.jpg
On the picture on the right, why the hell is there blood running down the Slig's pants?
...Or is it something else?

EDIT: By the way, it's legal since I got that off the ballisticpublishing site.

Bonedust 03-19-2007 06:15 PM

There is no blood are you talking about the greenish color under his shirt?

skillya_glowi 03-19-2007 06:17 PM

huh? There's something running down his mechanical pants and yet, I see no greenish colour under his shirt, which in any case would be his skin.
Are you sure we're talking about the same image...?

Cullen Heath 03-19-2007 07:02 PM

Some of it even looks a bit like rust. You have to remember, though, that the Sligs don't have the best life and aren't treated all that well.
It may be dried blood from when another Slig had used them. Maybe it was killed and then the Valet had bought this pair(or maybe he was given them due to his high Slig status) But I doubt that it's his blood.

My theory is that this is a hidden message made by the creators to allude to the concept of menstruation, revealing that Slig Valet is really the slig queen!














just kidding, I don't know. :p I didn't notice that before, but it actually could be rust, but it does look a lot like blood.
