For those of you who didn't make it into the server, here's a brief description of the new vehicles. Please note that the Hellbender still needs a bit of work, but the 'board and Scorpian absolutely rock!
EONS-Locust -- A Hoverboard useful for rapid transport across a map. Taking any damage will knock you from the board (but don't worry, you land on your feet).
EONS-Hellbender -- Modified Hellbender with the vehicle driver controlling the skymines and the twin beams as the second seat. Retains a third seat for transportation, but the third passenger cannot fire.
EONS-Scorpion -- Modified Scorpion based on the UT3 Scorpion. Primary fire is an arcing plasma ball that will discharge an energy pulse against any hover or flying vehicles it passes by. When vehicles are low on health it has a tendency to stall their engines and eject their drivers. Secondary fire activates the Scorpion's boost. The boost lasts for two seconds and accelerates the Scorpion to breakneck speeds. While you are boosting, you can press Alt-Fire again to prime the auto-detonation mechanism. While you are boosting and while the auto-detonator is primed, colliding with anything will have explosive results (and automatically eject the driver).
For those who made it in, thanks for playing! And especially, thanks for the comments! :cheers:

i used the hoverboard...and it was really slow. maybe i was doing something wrong...but i didn't get to try the scorpion. it seems pretty nice though. is there a way of having both the original and the UT3 style vehicles?

GJ wail , +1 for an increase speed to the hb . Little faster would be nice , still slower then the manta though . Tricky is a rough map for this new stuff , was getting horrible frames towards the end , maybe just me though .
How about trying them out on say Malestrom NV . just throw in a bunch of everything thats new .
