Why are you changing the 'nades?
I liked the LAMs, they're tactically versatile and sci-fi enough to fit the DX universe, and it meant you had all the grenade types acting on common rules, which is always good from a design point of view.

The hands will be MIB hands, don't worry. We've already coded up our player character, it just requires moving all the files over to the MIB directory (a task which I haven't undertaken yet).
Ziemanskye- The LAMs are going to stay in the game. The frag grenades offer slightly different peformance- they don't cause as much damage, but they are more accurate and can be thrown farther.
The only original weapons that won't appear in the game are the sword (which will be replaced by the katana), DTS (doesn't make sense in the storyline), and throwing knives (replaced by shuriken).

Now, with the PS2 version's interface, that'd be cool. (You could carry so much more than in the PC version :p)
I never liked having to throw stuff away to be able to carry another type of nade around. - but I suppose if these are populous enough it won't matter much: you carry which of the LAM/Frag grenade you prefer.

Yeah, we don't really intend to force players to use frags. They should be as available as the LAMs...it's really just a matter of preference. Players use LAMs for different things- some use them against bots, others ambush with them against the walls, others just punch through doors and whatnot. The frags will not be able to attach to walls, so they serve more of an anti-personnel purpose.

This sounds very interesting, definately can't wait to play it!

Thanks man! We've been making major progress in the past few weeks. Two maps are coming along nicely and our modelling team continues to blaze through our weapons list.
We're still on the hunt for a couple more mappers and a character skinner, so if anyone knows of someone who might be interested, be sure to put in a good word for us! ;)
Oh, here's a link to the new MagRifle shot:
