What is true?

adrientd

Not false

I mean yeah there were probably stuff that got cut due to console constraints.

In any case, the XXL Romasterd has added pirates to Rome that were not in the original :Pauselix:

Yeah, that is true, they are now in every level

But the idea stems from the gameplay of GBA XXL, where Pirates also guard Rome

Now with a proper model and animations!

For some reason the sound while he is flying repeats too fast ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Note that I reused the animations from the strong legionnaire and most look just fine, except a few which I had to remake to fit the Rocket Roman. This is also why he shares the weapon with the strong legionnaire currently, we will have to decide what kind of weapon the Rocket Roman will wield. In the beta screenshots it is actually not clear what kind of weapon he holds, but it appears to be a regular pilum (spear). As at that time the strong Legionnaire also had the basic spear, I believe we can assume that maybe there were plans to give him a different weapon as well.....

....So what do you think would be the weapon of the Rocket Roman? An axe 🪓 ? A mace 📍?

and maybe because of the movies, since all of them got pirates as well

mehdiboumour

yes since they also changed his appearance compared to the one in those early screenshots

pegperegogaucho

Yeah, he seems to have gotten gloves 🧤
