Q: Will we be able to change our armor or color in the alpha?
A: I'm trying to work on some sort of system for changing your armor color, and so the whole server knows your color. It's not that hard, but I'm trying to get it in.
haloZ
Q: is revamped gonna be more like reach or like halo 1,2,3,odst
A: It's going to be its own style. As Alex would put it, "Revamped is a game like no there halo"
Q: will there be super melees like reach
A: I thought about it, but I don't know if I really want to add that in (It can be kind of annoying, and melee isn't really the strong point in Revamped)
Q: is there gonna be elites
A: In Firefight. And if we do campaign, they'll most likely be in there.
Q: can it change my life and give me random million dollars
A: If you study the code and Become a professional coder, and create a multi-million dollar game like minecraft with your programming skills, then maybe.

Q: Will the snowball war game-mode feature in the alpha if even the game?(Will this lead to a dodgeball game-mode?)
A: I'm not going to make an official game mode for it, I just assume that someone will make it with all the given options. You could just set your primary weapon as Raw hands, and turn weapon pickup off(Snowballs are natural so you can still pick them up) and turn on damage modifier on high. Boom, you have a snowball game mode.
Q:Will there be a page where we can submit our maps to be voted into the final game?
A: It depends on if the maps are very good and logical for Multiplayer.
Q: Will there be a Dedicated server with a GUI that will be release with the game where u can pick what game-mode and what map 2 play?
A: I think this is a very good Idea, and since I took a month or so and learned how to make stuff like GUI apps and DOS apps, I could easily do this. So I may just do this for the game.
Q: If possible will there be a map downloader in game to download user maps online or from a server?
A: I think Darkplaces might already have this. If not, then I dunno, most likely not. I'm no network programmer.
Q: If possible will there be accounts that are stored on a server that hold how much kills,deaths, and maby achievements(like 50 kill milestones) if so will they be viewable in game?
A: Like I said, I'm no Network programmer, so Probably not.
Q: Will there be a quick game option or matchmaking that the game automatically finds a server with players on it. so u dont have 2 go threw all the IP madness...
A: Solitude had something similar to this, so I may see how they implemented it and give it a crack. I know that you can use Libcurl for connecting to a network and downloading files.
Q: Will Revamped take a @&#% on PSP PHAT's RAM?
A: The is basically designed for the Phat. I have experienced very little Crashes on the Phat nor the slim.
Q: Will there be a chat room or a room where u can use mic's from like socom?
A: Not in-game, but Skype works real well for this kinda stuff, so I highly recommend Skype for online gaming.
