Phoebus has let me know that Activision’s Heavy Gear II website has gotten three new screen shots from HGII designer Dave Nash, showing off Heavy Gear II’s jump jet feature. Jump jets provide a quick downward burst of thrust, which allows a pilot to propel their war machine up and over obstacles.
A skilled pilot will find mulitple uses for jump jets–evading fire, surprising enemies, leaping over walls or buildings, or springing out of an underwater hiding place.
It is not the same as playing the thing, but in 1998 every new shot, chat log, and developer quote is enough to keep the hype machine fed for another day.
