View Full Version : IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT (April fools)
Due to a massive public outcry, we here at SoL Team, have decided to rethink our new direction. Many forum messages, email messages and carrier pigeons have expressed their extreme discontent with us abandoning the Star Fox universe.
Why I received a phone call from President Barack Obama where he stated, "This is seriously failsauce dude. Weak even. You need to keep it real. You had some good mojo in the bank with these guys. Yes you could've, but man, no you didn't!"
"Thank you Mr. President," I replied, "while I didn't vote for you last election, I certainly see your point."
And thus it is with great optimism that we return to a more solidified Star Fox centric universe.
I can only pray that the fans we lost in this re-imagining can find it in their hearts to forgive us and return and that we may regain their trust.
Good night, and godspeed!

*FACEDESK, get up, rinse and repeat...* I should of known! But there was always the OFF CHANCE of it happening! >.< I dunno... maybe I'm too paranoid.

I dunno if I'd feel safe flying an arwing with half wings... But who am I to mess with peoples favorites, go ahead.

You are going to keep the Arwiper MK. II in the game right???:D

I hope they do.
Unfortunately, I looked really close at the picture of the Arwiper (mkII) and while it almost looks like a real, finished model, it looks much more like photoshopped bits of other craft. There's a definite filter effect there, though I forget the name specifically.

You're right Scourge, the artwork of the Arwiper Mk. II was all made up from a screenshot of an arwing that I "manually" modified with Photoshop...
But that'd be actually cool to model it anyway! ;)

This is a direct edit from the Arwing picture towards the end of the (previous) screenshot thread.
Speaking of which, are you still going to open a new screenshot thread, or go back to the old one?
I can only pray that the fans we lost in this re-imagining can find it in their hearts to forgive us and return and that we may regain their trust.
It would serve you right if they didn't after pulling such a horrible "joke".:mad:
but sadly I'm a rather forgiving all powerful overlord...:biggrin1::D

They could put the Arwiper as an easter egg, for the brave fellows who followed them for years and who will remember this joke. :biggrin1:

The StarFox crew really wanted to be in an Arwiper Mk.II as well but they got a call that went like this.

I definitely figured it was a giant hoax, especially in the "Wolf" thing where he used such internet terms as "I haz them"
Even so, I'm glad you guys gained your sense back.
Or else I would've gotten angry.
And you won't like me when I'm angry o-o

You prove a good point... Maybe it could be a stealth fighter, just... fix the almost "Hey look at me, I wanna get shot!" stripe and so on. Don't gotta though, just saying.

I don't see the link, since WE released these materials, I don't see why that would mean that was a hoax... Even if Nintendo did it, that would be a funny reference to a public-domain "term" to me!

I think the point he was trying to make was how many games have tag lines with internet lingo in them... none that I've ever played, people want games to be like movies nowadays.

"In the Depths of Lylat, an old Planet is dying...
Forgotten for centuries in the History of Lylat, Taklys vanishes place after place, until no Life lasts anymore on it's surface...
Bannished by the Cornuseans milleniums ago, Cursed by the Wrath of Andross nowadays, some of the remaining Shadamars alive now stand up by the cornerian side to revenge!"
could THAT be SoL's story?

It's not SoL's, it's mine... well, "mine", the one of the story within the Universe of Starfox I'm writing.
If you go on my DeviantART gallery, you'll see pictures of my characters, and even the first chapters of the story which I translated in english (I write them in french first so it's not available for all edited chapters yet).
I've also began a Website for it: http://44thwindsword.psygears.com
Switch to the english version and click on the Background navigation button so you'll have... the background! :P
