Report RSS Contra X work in progress - News Update 9 - Poisoner

Another total makeover for old and outdated unit.

Posted by on

Hi all!

Our production lines are never idle, so once again we are bringing a total makeover for very old model we had in Contra.

Chemical generals Poisoner got brand new visuals, as well as additional ability.
Thanks to improved armor, new dozer like model fits him well.

He also got additional ability to deploy/build toxin barrels into the ground which are triggered when enemy unit comes near. Just like demo trap, chemical barrel will explode and deal toxin damage only.
This will help when fighting swarm of infantry units, as we all know, Toxin pumps are barely used because they require much micro with workers and are cleaned easily.

Poisoner still benefits from salvage upgrades, as well as Anthrax Gamma upgrade.

Amazing redesign, Poisoner finally get something unique compared to Toxin Tractor.

And speaking of the old one, will it replace GLA Boss's Toxin Tractor?

Thank you!
Possibly, we always use replaced models for Boss generals, or at least for some other mission parts.

It's weird how the remap takes so little space on the model while it also has those huge barrels of remap-like color. That can create confusion imo, why not make the barrels have a less saturated color and add more remap to the other parts?

Bots (AI) can cause the game to crash. That's probably what you are experiencing. Challenge mode missions and multiplayer PvP games are less prone to crash.
