No, not the VS models. Shame, I like tall women :D

1. In 1.2 a rant could trample a helmet (suit too, but this is to illustrate the idea). You could either run him over or crush him against a wall.
2. When crouching the helmeted human hitbox was changed, so no headshot was possible. The hitbox was smaller. Goon went over.
3. Since we can use more polys on models I wonder if a crouching human could have his hit(-not-)box (some damage dealt) or bounding(-not-)box (if possible at all) small enough to fit under and between the legs of a rant.
4. Same goes for dretches (/dretches dont block!!!!!!!!" :) )
5. Will wallwalking on structures be possible?
6. Visible damage? Not to make it too obvious, there could be 2-3 ranges of damage shown (100-80, 80-60, below 60). Both on humans and aliens.
7. Will the buildings have "mass". For example: turrets hanging over some ledge using 5 last pixels of boundingbox and it falls down. Or RC topple over because it was put too much off center on the box.
8. Will putting one Armory over another Armory be implemented?

1. Trample will not be so strong (instant kill) like is in 1.2.
2. There will be always correct hitbox.
3. It is possible, but it need testing, I am not sure if it will make better gameplay or not. Also better collision detection will give advantage to aliens, because you can hit them only by shooting at body, not at collision box.
5. Yes.
6. Yes - scars that will be more visible with more damaged player.
7. Do you reading our gameplan? :) We have planned "gravity mod", but it is very complicated thing, and we are not sure, if it is even possible to make it real. For singleplayer game it is not problem, but multiplayer is way harder. We will work on it when everything else will be done - maybe after game release.
8. Building on top of each other - yes (server option).
