Munche's port

[FuzzyFuzzle]

I know we probably won't know most of this till munch comes out, but what types of machines can Munch possess? It's been released that he can possess some vehicles, security cameras, ATMs, and robots, but what other stuff? Can he possess security orbs? Slig pants? Vykker limbs? I know we probably won't know for a while, but If anyone knows anything...

hi FuzzyFuzzle, glad you joined...welcome...

i really don't know about security orbs, pants or limbs...

*thinks about Munch controlling a slig's pants or a vykker's limb*
lol

[Oddsville]

Welcome to the fourms Fuzzy Fuzzle, Im not sure what else Munch can controll with his port you should ask Max the Mug...

[neemis]

Yeah, I think he can only possess the stuff you described. I'm not an Oddworld expert tho!

[Cloverfield]

*Thinks of Sligs pants being controlled and the Slig wondering what is going on, and laughs*

I don't know if that would be the case, but it would certainly be funny to see a Slig's pants being controlled. From what we have seen in screenshots and what I have heard, I think it will be more like larger equipment that he can control, like a crane perhaps, or the machine we saw in a recent screenshot with Interns. I doubt he could possess security orbs, because that would just mean that a screen is TOO easy to get through... like, hey, I blew up the orb so now I can control anything.

Abe Babe...

*points to Abe Babe*
Yeah, listen to him! He knows what he's talking about!

To be honest I'm not entirely sure of what Munch can possess - actually I assume he can possess absolutely anything mechanical but have limited Munch's abilities for gameplay purposes.

Actually, this brings up an interesting question - if there are security orbs to stop Abe chanting, are there orbs to prevent Munch from concentrating his SkullJack on some machinery. That wouldn't make sense continuity wise, because Munch has only recently escaped with that technology. If there are those orbs, can Munch possess them?

Imagine a Slig in possess pants, dancing the Cancan and don't laugh.

AB's a gal, not a guy...(pssssst, she's really old n'all, 26! i think)

what would be the point of being able to possess a chant surpressor?
i suppose it could be 'directional'...hmmmm...
there probably won't be any electrical surpressors

[FuzzyFuzzle]

Well in the previous games the chant suppressors could fly/hover, so maybe Munch could possess it and fly around a factory to scout things out.
P.S. I can just picture possessing a sligs pants and having it run off a cliff while the slig is yelling all the while

[neemis]

Err...heh-heh, sorry Abe Babe.
I've been here for like a week! I haven't really gotten to know people that well yet!
--------------------------------------------

Yeah, if you could control Slig pants...that'd be my all time favorite thing to do!

What I know is that Munch can "zap" his enemies using his head port and after having some zap vendo, as we can see following THIS LINK.

I saw a picture where Munch controls a huge machinery via a control pane, just look the central screenshot, following THIS LINK.

So, I guess it's the way Munch will control things in the game (not security orbs, or slig pants, unless they have a sort of remote control pane)

Who knows Munch just may be able to controll secruity orbs, I mean he may only be able to possess them and not blow them up?

I am sure what Munch is able to pocess will be limited.

What if Abe and Munch were walkin' around, and ran into like a few scrabs or somethin...Munch could pocess the security orb and then blog the scrabs up with it. But there's no tellin.

[FuzzyFuzzle]

Thanx People. Obviousley we won't have all the details until the game comes out *rocks back and forth in his chair whispering "only 8 weeks...Only 8 weeks..."

[Lampion]

From the last Gamespot preview we know that, in addition to controlling heavy machinery using remote-control panes, and the abbility to "zap" enemies, Munch's port will be used to open Fuzzles cages and activate "warpers", to send the fuzzles to a safe place.

Just like Abe, opening bird portals to save mudokons.
