Sorry for dbl post but just finished mission.. Kinda Funny it turned out this way.

BUT RAREBIT BIG PROPS TO YOU OR WHOMEVER DID THE DIRE LUPINE SPAWN FROM NOWHERE WITH A BLACK TYPE OF SMOKE SORTA THING. LOVED THAT WHOLE ANIMATION PORTION AND HOPE ITS USED MORE OFTEN IF NOT IMPLEMENTED FOR GOOD FOR EVERY KIND OF SPAWNING NPC ^_^

Spoiler Below: <highlight the rest if your that tempted>

Start
:Spoiler: Meh... Kinda didn't like Agent Wong coming at the first part at lvl 100 and saying he knew i didnt want the shaft of being a recycle fodder for the furnace or whatnot. Like as if he provoked saying "We have all there is to know now on Zion and You Operative so the choice now is inevitable that to stay alive you must join the mechs"

Also I think Con, Cont, Cort, or whomever the guy is that was with Roland before Roland became new guy to take order from and be told by his ol crew mate what the orders are temporary I hope. But it seems Cont, Cort, or whoever is pissed off either at the fact he didn't get to be chain of command or has a grudge on someone... or something.. Heck some of what the operator had scanned and saw or thoguht saw makes me think this guy isnt dedicated to Zion at all:
End

Odd.. wonder why ive never seen it before even when against other Dire Lupines. 0.o must be the Nvidia 6600GT that just got an SLI buddy and SLI enabled.. Another 6600GT ^_^

It depends how you meet them in the mission, sometimes they're there just as enemies, but it's when they're stealthed and attack that you see that animation. It was like that when we first met 'em, but since then it depends on the scenario as to whether they poof in or are already there.

Great mish I thought, nice to see Colt and to have a mix of enemies to fight

Good mission and nice to meet a new character. Seems quite a... hmmm... 'different' character.

TH

**cloudwolf**

Hopefully Colt doesn't turn out too jackassy like this description suggests he might, last thing Zion needs is another cocky Anome character =P

But yeah, good mission, going to be interesting to see how Colt evolves.

Colt was a cocky *CENSORED*. I'm glad I'm not Zion for nothing else then I don't have to take orders from him. I look forward to seeing Roland but Colt seems like a waste of a new character.

Please don't circumvent the profanity filter. Presence.

probably is being a PITA cause he did more than Roland did by a thousand fold maybe. or is as said in the mission a few exiles were in the room but no longer there. /shrug could be a exile hired by roland to get us to think and get data needed for him adn roland who in fact is Exile or Merv or Mech Undercover =/

Or he is just so pissed off over Rolan gets the higher pay now than him XD.. A grudge we may have if that be the case hehe

**Fractor**

An interesting mission with the introduction of the new character Colt and learning more about what's happening in Zion. Nice to see the Dire Lupines again after a long absents, I wonder if this means the Effectuator is involved in this somehow because he was in command of them last time.

Ugh! Tyndall tells me all about the bad news with the older Zion.. the Machines attacked! SMILEY Lock is missing...the operator thinks he's dead, but hopefully with the Merovingian mission info he may not be SMILEY On my way to see Ghost, the Zion guys with him told me about what the Sentinels did to Zion, and about what happened with Colt and Roland's ship! Colt from the movies!!! And, he was here with Ghost too! SMILEY Ghost said they tried to get everything moved to New Zion, but the Machines might have got their hands on something during the attack! He says he has to get back to work getting things moved, so he told me talk to Colt instead! He seemed to be a very to the point person! He gave me a location and told me to get moving to it to stop the Machines from getting any information from it!

Tyndall says they have lost contact with the people at the location, so hurry and try to save what I can! The operator couldn't get through on the system, there were bodies everywhere, and only an Agent was left! He didn't attack me though.. he just told me my time was running out, and everyone else's, and the only choice was to surrender! SMILEY I couldn't get in the computer, either, so the data was gone SMILEY There are other locations under attack too, Tyndall said.. so maybe they might have a chance!

The next spot had Exiles attacking, not Machines! Luckily I was able to save the data here and get out of there to take it back to Colt!

Colt seemed glad at least we saved something! Then, he told me the whole story about his ship going down when the Machine virus was put in the mainframe or whatever, and they had to get out and run on foot! He thinks the Sentinels may have gotten to their ship, and their other crew, Mauser and AK SMILEY Tyndall says both locations held archived data, and thinks it is wierd that both Machines and Exiles attacked at about the same time! She also isn't sure what the Machines may have found or not found when they broke into Zion SMILEY Things are still looking bad!
