Oddworld Questions and Answers -

Newscaster is a Slig, and he is a worker class creature.
Do you remember the News Bulleton about Director Phleg he did? After Phleg pretty much finished "belting out" his speech, NC said something like "Blah blah blah."

Now, I've taken into consideration that Industrialists don't exactly cotten to Freedom of Speech. Am I right? So shouldn't NC be punished for mocking at least one of the three (as far as we know, there could have been more than three) Glukkons?

I just wanted to start this thread back up to what it was innitially intended to be: A question and answer thread.

Oh, and Reese: good luck with the game. And may Odd be with you.

Although the glukkons don't encourage freedom of speech, they do enjoy making a profit. The Newscaster slig is a celebrity and so he is entitled to saying things normal sligs wouldn't. The better the ratings, the more moolah the glukkons make. Does that make since? Besides, he is probably reading a teleprompt written by a glukkon, and we know glukkons don't all get along perfectly well.

There is no slig in the top right corner of that picture, there is one in the top left however, that is recieving an electric shock from god knows what...

This is relating to an old post by M.O.M on page 1.

Reese

PS: Alcar how can you tell that the slig is being shocked by a shrykull?

Dipstikk · #**216** 05-08-2003, 09:48 PM

Who is that Mudokon above Abe's knee, and to the right of that Wheelchair guy? The one painted like a Skeleton.

Does he have a name? Hee looks to me like some kind of funeral minister, or just a Goth.

Reese Charles · #**217** 05-09-2003, 03:08 AM

He is probably a witchdoctor or shamen, those two are types of mudoken we will see in the next game I beleive.

Reese

PS: A goth? Have you ever seen a goth? The gluks are more like Goths...

EDIT: Which ones Alf? The one holding the baby meetle?

***Alcar*** · #**218** 05-09-2003, 04:57 AM

The Mudokon in question is actually named a Poser

Alcar...

***Xavier*** · #**219** 05-09-2003, 02:50 PM

the mudokon in the weelchair was originally used in the "healt status" design

Dipstikk · #**220** 05-09-2003, 05:35 PM

No, the one between the Wheelchair guy and the Poser.

***Xavier*** · #**221** 05-09-2003, 05:40 PM

just call him old-concept-that-was-not-used-guy

well no sorry I don't know about that one

Dipstikk · #**222** 05-09-2003, 06:11 PM

You know, like "Necromancer?"

sorry alcar but this is a poser...
http://www.oddworld-fr.com/banque_images/0226.jpg

and he absolutly don't looks like a goth (I know I'm one)

anyway, sligslinger, wich link don't work?

Reese Charles · #**227** 05-10-2003, 08:00 AM

Cool, your a goth? I am an Alienist (which is basicly the same thing only us guys look more like aliens than vampires

)
I think the only problem with our type of lifestyle is the way that society ignorantly points its finger and laughs. Of course, its a punishable offense to not fit in isnt it?

Anyway, back on topic: Are there game maps of all of Oddworlds paths in AO and AE? Not like the ones that you make abe put his hand on to look at, but more like screenshots joined together to show each screen of that path...

If you understood that your a genius!

Ah, my bad. But that other one is deffinately a Big Kahonee, as it has more ponytail feathers and markings.

I guess that other one must be a Skull-Mudokon

Kidding...

Anyway, and updated picture:

Hobo · #**229** 05-10-2003, 08:43 AM

Maybe it's nothing. Just a mud with weird paint on because it's oddworld after all.

Reese Charles · #**230** 05-10-2003, 08:52 AM

I still think its a witchdoctor or something...

I tried once to make one of the Stokyards with screens I took with my PC but the screens doesn't fit good with each others so it didn't look good and I abondened the project

Alcar, I agree with you for the other, it is definatly a big kahonee

I tried the exact same thing, and the exact same problem arose, so like you I just dumped it.

Alcar...

Reese Charles · #**233** 05-10-2003, 09:05 AM

The problem is, in the first two games, the screens arent transitions from one place to the other: In other words, Abe doesnt walk off one screen onto the other, he walks quite a distance from one to the other, so quite often it will look like he is in a completely different place. Abe walks from the one challenge to the other, but you don't get to see the bit in between, and that is supposed to save on boring bits, but I just think it makes it seem a bit unrealistic.

Well, since nobody else has done it, I might aswell. I will post it in the picture request like a good little OWF Fan Game Expert

.

Reese

***Xavier*** · #**234** 05-10-2003, 09:37 AM

well good luck... I hope it will be good

Then I will name him Nac. I want to feature him in the comic, regardless. I like hime, I've practiced drawing him, and I've given him a good part.

So there. PPTTHHP!

Sekto Springs · #**236** 05-15-2003, 05:53 PM
