Hot on the heels of the space combat teaser for First Strike we have this latest model update over at the First Strike website. Keeping

with the space theme we have revealed work in progress on the Rebel Pilot and Rebel Fleet Trooper, and one of the stars of last week's

teaser, the ever dependable Blockade Runner or Corellian Corvette. Also in this update is a lovely model of a Combat Speeder

destined to see action in our Mos Espa level. Go check 'em out.

Thanks for the Comments guys, we will be adding more than the X-Wing Pilot to our Space Sim side of the game.

There will be a B-Wing, TIE Fighter, Mon Calamari and Quarren Characters too!

All in all we hope to replicate as many races involved as we can in the Conversion. And as for the Quarren you can see some WIP shots of those here.













These are all Work In Progress Concepts for the Quarren Trooper.

This is what I think of it so far: I'm probably going to buy BF2142 just so I can play first strike. It looks like Battlefront, but quality.

Well that's the idea, the quality and attention to detail and realism of a Battlefield game, but set in the Star Wars universe. Our aim is to create the most lore accurate Star Wars game out there, official or mod. We've managed to expand considerably on the base code that comes with BF2142 and this has allowed us to create not only expansive land battle maps, but also massive space maps as seen in the trailer released last week.

Well that's enough of me talking, check it out and let us know what you think. After all this is a Star Wars game made by the fans for the fans, so your opinions matter people.

Heh, yeah, we had a lot of fun filming that. We were sat there in our ships waiting for shots to be set up and for our little George Lucas wannabe to yell...

"Action!"

You almost felt like an extra on a Star Wars movie or something.

Actually, when are we getting paid for that? Where's my agent?!

laugh

I just thought I'd bob on here quick and post a link to a Battlefield Podcast, featuring a nice little article on First Strike.

http://brokeneggs.cachefly.net/bf2podcast/bf-podcast-may-2 7-2007-episode-53-enhanced-wmv/bf-podcast-may-27-2007-episode-53-enhanced.wmv

I also thought I'd throw up some work in progress shots for you guys to check out. This is the Sentinel Landing Craft, as seen in the special edition of A New Hope. This thing is going to be a beast of a vehicle in the game, and is sure to become a firm favorite.

Enjoy.

Inching ever closer towards release we've just started producing a number of Dev Diaries again to keep interest bubbling as you guys wait to get you're filthy mits on the game. First up is Havoc, a great guy, and a great exclusive first look at a new toy, the Nebulon B Frigate from the end of The Empire Strikes Back.

grin

Enjoy the pics and read on. You can also see this and more over at....

HI guys what’s up?

This is Alex ”HaVoC” Immerzeel, and I’m a modeler, skinner and Visual effects artist for First Strike.
And welcome to my Dev diary. First off I’ll tell you guys a little about myself and my motives for working with this incredible group of talented people on First strike.

I’m 18 years old and live in The Netherlands, (that’s that tiny little country next to Germany) I am currently still in school, currently doing a course in Small businesses. I’m working my way up to getting the proper credentials to get accepted into university for a degree in game design & development. currently to get through school I work at a electronics store in downtown Rotterdam. I have been doing game design related activities since I was twelve. Starting with map creation for the game, star trek Voyager Elite force. Then later moving onto jedi knight 2 and 3 which used the same quake 3 engine. Since I quit mapping I got intrigued in modeling and a friend of mine happened to have a collectors edition of Unreal tournament 2004 which included a modeling tutorial for a program called Maya. So after downloading the free version of maya I was hooked on modeling. Since then I have been doing modeling work mainly for my portfolio. I have been huge starwars fan and collector for as long as I can remember now.

After The battlefield 2 mod Shattered faith disbanded Back in July 2006 I submitted my application to join First Strike, Inconveniently a day after several old Shattered faith devs also got accepted into the mod. Which basicly meant I pulled the short straw. I got a friendly "Sorry but were full" from Xerohour and I went on my way again. Then last November First strike had an audition for voice actors. And since I do a mean admiral Ackbar impression I thought. “Hey what do I have to lose”. So I recorded a few lines and I waited a week or 2, and then I got the E-mail from Ulversial. I was accepted as the voice actor for the mon calamari. And then I thought hey why not re-submit my application with some updated work. So I did, and a few days later I spoke with Bandu,he gave me a little test assignment, which I passed with flying colors. And since then I’ve been working with the utmost pleasure on this great project that is First Strike. My luck had finaly changed...

One of the great things about this mod is the speed at which we test things and get stuff in-game. Every week we have 2 main testing session. But usually we have a new workable build every 2 days. Usually when we get feedback from our testing department, the dev team will have made the tweaks and changes to the Build the very next day. And it is up for grabs. This is a really great experience cause you don’t have to wait a long time to see the stuff you made in-game. Also the things I have learned while being part of this team Have been a real eye opener for me. I started out as a lonesome Modeler without any other real skill, but since I have joined I have learned Skinning, and visual effects with the help from my fellow Devs.

Well this was my dev diary, letting all you people take a look into my life as a modder for First Strike share in the experiences I have had.
Stay tuned for bigger and better stuff coming soon.

p.s. Han shot first!

Cheers,

Alex “HaVoC” Immerzeel
