Topaz Quasar Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2004/...8_screen002.jpg This looks like the main character & Mira on Telos but.......what the hell is that in the background? Looks like a bunch of glowing statues....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icebox15 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 With the dark cloud above them they could be artifacts of the darkside. Or it could be the way the light hits them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkile Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 That's odd. It sort of looks like the laser towers on Telos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Skin Mask Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 It's rumored that those serve as some kind of barrier like the great wall of china on Telos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icebox15 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Or like the Czerka markers in the dune seas of Tatooine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fardragon Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I'd noticed them, but have heard nothing. I expect it's plot related. Everyone knows Science Fiction is really cool. You know what PoE really needs? Spaceships! There isn't any game that wouldn't be improved by a space combat minigame. Adding one to PoE would send sales skyrocketing, and ensure the game was remembered for all time!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 maybe a barrier wall in case of intense storms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quasar Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 3D costs extra. And Telos is still recovering, so they don't have the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyugisszorny Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I guess it's some kind of shield generator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightcleaver Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Why are they two-dimensional? Because it's a screenshot. Seriously, though - it looks flattish because the side of the generators behind the field are distorted, and the generators themselves have a flat texture. They aren't 2d, if you look closely enough, and remember that this is a screenshot and thusly can't show you perspective as you'll see it in motion in game. I remember some mention of Telos having large protective barriers around colonies to keep the bad stuff out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icebox15 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Maybe they're just statues, just simple ordinary everyday run-of-the-mill statues, is that so hard to beleive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD SKOOL WHEELMAN Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Yes, because they are radiating some kind of pulse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icebox15 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Well I guess we'll find out when the game releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD SKOOL WHEELMAN Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 There's nothing wrong with speculating... ...I think it's a barrier, any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 thats what it looks like a barrier but what for maybe a storm barrier to keep the waves from washing the city away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemix Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I'm pretty sure they are force field generators, possibily put there to make it seem as if they were protecting from storms or flooding, or perhaps like said before, an excuse to cut the map off at that point like the czerka beacons. U can sort of see the forcefeild, it's very transparent but still visible. I don't thing they would just place a bunch of cylindrical statues in the water with energy fields connecting them purely for the sake of giant glowing statues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
