This is so cool!
“And this Thing! How can I describe it? A monstrous tripod, higher than many houses, striding over the young pine trees and smashing them aside its wallowing career; a walking engine of glittering metal, reeling now across the heather, articulate ropes of steel dangling from it, and the clattering tumult of its passage mingling with the riot of the thunder.”
– War of the Worlds, H. G. Wells
Try f**king with us NOW, Martians! We’re reverse-engineering all your precious technology from your Invasion of Victorian London!
neat
STRIIIIDEEERR!!!
It would have been nice if STriDER could get up when it falls or climb steep slopes or even swing in the branches of the trees. How about running or crawling?
So when do we put guns on them and make them giant? Half-Life 2 won’t happen unless we all work hard for that goal!
War of the Worlds has never been more hilarious
All it needs now is a hub and a few lasers… Then we have a Martian War Machine!!!.
So yeah thats pretty cool.
good gravy. in the demo video i was like, “Yeah right, that thing will never move like that!” Well, i ate my words…it tasted like…strider.
hahahahah half life 2, get your crowbars out guys.
XD
Pelvic… THRUST!
what kind of dumb walking motion is that!? This is just plain useless. You wouldn’t even be able to transport stuff with it!
But still nice work!
Better copy the movement from the strider in Half Life 2! Here: watch?v=d_kfZSsArCM
hawants to find a man who will share a good time with me
wtf, half life?
They’ve gotta make it so that the legs are completely upright and straight when they make a step. Or else joint fractures ensue.
well, that was a pretty long video..
yeah!
I know… It’s just how they were built. It WOULD be cool if they did that, but the design would have to be changed.
well striders in half life 2 aren’t even robots. they are actually some alien spiders and just half robots. so their head can’t go like that
But it LOOKS like one.
It would be cool if the ingame striders walked like this tough.
ok theres already striders now all what we need is gordon freeman and combine
…no kidding i just sayed it would look cool if u put strider skin all… i don’t care if it shoots or that it uses completely different walking style..
……can’t you see that it doesn’t move like strider…..
…thats why im saying to put strider (hl2) skin that it would look like it!
