Oddworld Questions & Answers VIII

[STM]

If you remember, there is a slig in monsaic lines that you chant and there are a few on the way back to R.Farms surrounded by mines, it is my opinion therefore that R.Farms is slowly encroaching on the areas with little mudokon influence but they don't need a full scale invasion of it because what is there to gain. And a lot of the natives there have harnesses the power of chanting which could be lethal to any slig vanguard attacking.

[Sekto Springs]

Isn't the Monsaic inner sanctum underground? That may have something to do with why it hasn't been completely overtaken. A few slig scouts have made camp there, but it's still for all intents and purposes one hell of a fortress.

[STM]

I just thought that the Sanctum itself was tucked away somewhere unexplored

[Sekto Springs]

Monsaic Lines is located above a huge water reservoir. I could definitely see Sekto trying to move in on them.

[Nate]

I always assumed that Big Face mystically transported Abe from the Free Fire Zone to the Monsaic Lines, not that they're actually close to each other.

[Sekto Springs]

According to this, Paramonia is inbetween RF and Monsaic Lines. So I think it's safe to say it's not just beyond RF's borders like the game's chronology would have you believe.

But according to the map post-meddling by certain individuals who will remain nameless.



Wait, is this the final version? The region of Mudos highlighted is clearly not the one depicted in the larger map.

[Sekto Springs]

Wizard did it.

[MeechMunchie]

According to the first one Scrabania is in the forest, so I'm fine with it.

[Phylum]

The 2nd feels far too liniar

[STM]

But the second one is the one in the book so surely it's finalised...I've never in my life seen the first map before...any info on it it's awesome!

EDIT: And btw, the first one can't be finalised because look at HUMSHRUB forest, then again the second map is poorly scaled

The first one posted above is an early version of the map that was originally unpublished until Rob Brown shared it on his site.

[STM]

Ahh I see, I wonder what Humshrub was then

[Wil]

It was the original name for SpooceShrubs.

[Sekto Springs]

They were Spooce shrubs, but pink.

[STM]

humshrub sounds cooler

[Taco]

What's all the yellow sandy stuff piled around Bonewerkz? I always assumed it was bone dust or something but I don't think they'd just leave it lying around on the floor

[Nate]

It's piled up in silos waiting to be transported to the brewery.

[MeechMunchie]

It can also be used in explosives, and probably other products we're not told about.

[STM]

Explosives? Huh, never new that

[Bullet Magnet]

Just how many bones had they gotten through?

[MeechMunchie]

And just how many Mudokons must have been buried in Necrum to leave that many bones?

[STM]

4? I'm gonna say four!

[Wil]

Remember Mudokon bones are also donated by retired factory workers.

[Jordan]

Oh yeah, those mounds of stuff. I always loved the screens they appeared in.

[marlz]

Hey, Scrabtrapman... did you say 4 because of the 3 Weirdos + the one Blind Mudokon that Abe leads into oblivion (hence 4 dead Mudokons and therefore four skeletons)? Cause that was a really clever joke.

[STM]

Yes...Yes that was my calculating joke, laugh people I made a joke!

[FRANK THE SLIG]

i would like to now more about oddworld hand of odd does any one now about this game

[STM]

Hmm, HoD was the first of the habitales series and was conceived to be a sort of hybrid RTS game if I remember correctly. Let me see, it was cancelled back in 2k4 and that's it from me.

[Phylum]

HoD?. It's HoO. Whoever came up with the acronym HoD is stupid
