THE EXION PROGRAM IS CHARACTERIZED BY THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT THINGS:

  1. The use of Karma physics engine to move the different objects and hanging bridges realistically.
  2. Destroyable enviroment.
  3. The use of submachine guns, machine guns and automatic guns.
  4. The shot bullets can be seen in the air.
  5. The sound of the bullets when passing the players can be heard in 3D version counted in real time.
  6. The sound of bullet hits and the bullet hit effects are changing depending on the materials of the objects and surfaces.
  7. New vehicle sounds and exploding effects.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE EXION v3.00 AND THE ONSLAUGHT GAME TYPE:

- In the game, only the guns with bullets, rocket launchers, trench mortars, Link Gun, Shock Rifle and Target Painter can be used.

- Since the way of the fired bullets and missiles shot by the Assault Rifle (with silencer and telescope), the Assault Rifle Plus (with telescope), the Classic Sniper Rifle and other machine guns and automatic guns can be seen and heard (3D sound) as they are flying in the air. This way the position of the enemy can be identified more easily in the game.

- The sounds of the game have been revised in order to try to experience the situation of the battlefield atmosphere.

- The guns move in the players hand under the effect of the strenght of the shots (similarly to the Counter-Strike), so it is practical to fire at the enemy in short series.

- The vehicles are equipped with machine guns and automatic guns (Manta, Raptor, Scorpion).

- The Hellbender is equipped with an automatic gun, which can be handled by the driver of the vehicle.

- All the free and working vehicles can be used in the game, independently of the fact that it is in possession of the enemy or our team.

- In the maps, there are also destroyable buildings and moveable barrels and boxes which can be exploded. The moveable barrels and boxes can be pushed by the player, so he can build an entrenchment from these objects, too. Because of the destroyable walls, you have a chance to manoeuvre during the game.

- The destroyable walls and buildings can be demolished by the vehicles, as well. For example, with the Goliath tank, the player can go through the destroyable wall. The walls can also be demolished by the other vehicles, but, for instance, with the Manta, it is necessary to crash the wall with a high speed in order to destroy it.

- The movements of the different mobile things (barrels, boxes, trees, hanging bridges) in the map is controlled by the Karma physics engine.

- The Human Space Fighter, Skaarj Space Fighter and the Bomber planes can be also used in the game.

- The bullet hit effects wich were made by Mr. Evil and ADS have also been integrated into the game.

- The output of the game (framerate value) is influenced by the setting of it (Settings/Display), but the Heroes of Exion continuously controls its own effects (explosions, smoke, debris moved by the Karma physics engine…) according to the actual framerate value. Under the average 30 fps value, the game is able to represent only the minimum effects. Above this, the number, the complexity and the level of the physical modelling of the visual effects, or the number of the debris moved by the Karma physics engine (for example when a wall explodes) grow a lot.
