Title: The Overmind
Post by: mopython on December 10, 2013, 08:33:23 AM
..and we continue in our concept art series.

Todays look behind the curtain is a life cycle of Overmind, collective consciousness that controls all the alien structures. If the Overmind is destroyed then all structures besides Eggs cease to function. If Overmind is not destroyed, there is a good chance it will be humans, who will find out what "cease to function" means, in a very non-encyclopedical way.

Cute. Too little bad ass tho in my opinion.
Natural selection has nice substitute of overmind

Very, very impressive! I love the look. Will the aliens have a mushroomish design? That might be interesting. Kinda half looks like it from this.

You two *do* realize that's concept art from Natural Selection 2 not Murnatan, right?

If I was replying to you, I would have quoted you. :P

Anyhow, the NS2 art is rather nice. Played NS2, its OK, very pretty. Does not scratch that tremulous style game play itch though.

Umm sorry if I've confuse some ppl here.
I wanted to start conversation about that if this OM design is bad-ass enough (Trem OM kinda was).
Wanted to hear your opinion guys.

Murnatan style will be more nature-like and animal-like. So little mushroomish probably too, it fit into nature :)

NS2 style is classic alien-like.

So you dont plan things to be very similar to Trem after all.
