@sentimentalDime He means the functionality. 
All of the utilities accessed through console commands act the same way they did in closed beta. Sure, the molotov got a new animation recently (perhaps for the impending update), but the point still stands. They are all subject to change before being released properly. XD

@sentimentalDime Do you see the flames at the bottom of the image?.. :3 [/quote]
Faraleth One can hope, or though i did test the Molotov, Deployable Shield, Concussion Grenade and the 3rd Eye Cam, and none of them seem overly exciting.[/quote]
You were playing with the old CBT versions (well, the wall is from Alpha), of course they’re not overly exciting. Why do you think they removed those mercs in the first place when they went OBT? Hell, Aimee was removed way before CBT ended and Alpha never even made it to the Beta phase. The Molotov is the only one that might have been removed for being OP.[/quote]
@Grave Knight I have to disagree, as the Molotov seemed to have been updated (I wasn’t in the CBT, so i’m basing this off Youtube videos) as the animation + the color of the flames were different.[/quote]By the ways, next time you want to do the @Name thing with my name, you want to write my name out as “Grave Knight” (with the quotes) after the at symbol. Otherwise the code gets confused and tries to inform Grave (is there a Grave?).
Also, yeah, as Faraleth says. The mechanics are the same as the old versions while the visuals might have been changed.
[quote=“Backuplight;95831”]Any speculation on what the latest image might be? I’m starting to think it must be more than dome the map, but no clue what it could actually be. Maybe just more flavour/lore stuff, though I’d love it to be more than that.

Wait! What!? That’s not Dome at all. Or, wait, maybe that’s the Dome in the bottom right? Can’t really tell.

I’ve just realised… It can’t be Dome D: They said before, that the Dome map will have “weather effects” like rain… and that looks like it might block things like that XD so having that over the map will make no sense… I am confused :s
But also… it IS a dome. So, who knows.

@Faraleth I think i remember from the test weekend that you were not inside the dome, but you could look at it, but don’t quote me on this as im not sure.

‘‘Before monday’’ is all we know, i don’t know which region you live in but if you live in EU it might be tomorrow it gets announced for you, as we don’t know which region @MissMurder was reffering to.

I’m guessing she was referring to the US because that’s where Nexon is but idk for sure.

Maybe the objectives in dome are meant to be the “Jackals” trying to turn off/destroy the dome?

Yeah, but Splash Damage is based in The UK, as well as the game, so that could also be an option.

Dome actually refers to the real life Millennium Dome (or simply known as "the Dome’). Having a map inside the actual Dome would probably be uninteresting. It’s kind of like how Terminal features the London Eye (though the London Eye would make an interesting sniper nest, especially if it were moving).
As before mentioned it’s the Execution Map.

Well it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. I suspect snipers will join you soon enough as it makes a half decent sniper nest.

Yeah, that’s what I always thought it referred to, considering it was RIGHT THERE in the background xD then when I saw pictures of “a dome”, I was like… what? o.O
