These are really good. We would need many combinations. The missions won't just be 1 vs 1 like they are now. It could be Bot, Con Vs Max, Pred. Or Bot Con Pred Vs Max.

Oh, HELL YEAH there will be 4-way battle-royalle missoons.
Electron, go for it, one for all the combinations if you want.
The rest of you, there are still plenty of options to cover, the side misisons and 8-man knockout tournaments will probably need some graphics as well...

I don't have anything for the side missions, but I did come up with this for your little tourneys:

EDIT: And also on the subject of the knockout tourneys, I came up with these:

I think those are pretty cool Electron. What about one though for the other factions fighting it out against the other three?

Just for fun, and this is designed for matching the new Seibertron layout:

Enjoy!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! These are awesome! If you can make one for each possible combination that is exactly the types of things I was envisioning for the missions/battle royales!Electron wrote:if so i'm waitin to see wht the HMW2 people say this is just an example u see, as i've not been told this will be used in hmw2
Dragonslayer - Love the "Heavy Metal Madness" Concept. Run with that when doing graphics for the tournament page and we can call the tournaments HMM
The brackets are dynamically generated though so we can't do the entire bracket as an image. Just headers and such.
MagnusLabel - Best HMW banner I've seen for the new game thus far. Not sure about the title being cropped on the corners but I'd love to see some variations of what your playing with there.
YOU GUYS ARE CRANKING OUT SOME GREAT STUFF!

The actual size of the banner is the same as the existing banner, but it's cropped by the width of the forum, and you'll need to see the banner in a new browser window.
Updated:
Colour of Predacon's logo changed.
Broder added

New:
Mission Banner (example: Bot vs Con)

Background colour may need to be lighten. I'm considering to add a photo of cybertron (prefering landscape) in the banners.

I love these. As a tester I think they would fit perfectly. I would be interested to see what a HMW2 banner would look like in this style.

Have you had your Seibergasm today?

I both like and dislike this one at the same time. I can't put my finger on it. Also, shouldn't it be a HMWv2 banner? Just wondering.
