Easter eggs in Emperor

Atomic Mitten · December 21, 2003

I read somewhere that there is Easter eggs in Emperor somewhere, does anyone know about these ?

I heard the other day that Santa was riding sandworms since raindeers took vacation.

Anyways, Merry Christmas to everybody 8)

Merry Christmas Harkdawg and all! :) I never heard about easter eggs. I can clarify Dawg's words though because I saw it myself on my annual trip to arrakis :)

Think what you mean is the Telax. eggs in the campaign that sort of look like Easter Eggs.

IxianMace · December 22, 2003

There are shiny 'grey egg' like objects that are actually 'crates'. Run into them with a unit to obtain an Ixian Infiltrator.

There are also smaller 'purplish' things that look like 'hairy' eggs. ::)

They are Tleilaxu crates, run into them with a unit to pick up a Tleilaxu Contaminator or Leech unit.

Ummm well if you mean Easter Eggs using the computer game specific term then there might be one on fishers plain with the patch of rock that hides infantry. Other than that I'm not too sure. I don't know any intentional ones anyway.

I can remember the Eggs Ixian is refering to, do you know if this was this in a campaign because thats the only place those Eggs are found. I'll have to check out the Fishers Plain map to see about Apollyon's idea.

Apollyon · December 22, 2003

It's next to a ramp on the bottom-most patch of rock. Very hard to spot if you don't know where to look.

Where on Fishers ? or in a campaign ?

Do you mean the Southern most base on Fishers Plain map,

Which ramp ? (if you do ) ?

We don't mean the obvious ones . ;)

The text I read was to the effect, " select a unit and press ? key to reveal it's special abilities or something like that.

If only I could remember where I read it, oh !

I read it on EA Faqs on their support website, I just remembered.I was looking for reasons of black screen crashes, and I came accross that somewhere amongst the did you know thingies.

Dunenewt · December 22, 2003

Quadruple post :O

Where is this Support FAQ?

I can't find it.

Atomic Mitten · December 22, 2003

That's why I wanted someone else to look for it.lol

It's hidden deep in the bowels of EA's faqs on older games, I read it a few months ago now, when I first came on the forum, so I don't know if it's still on their web site, it must be somewhere, but the Navigation on EA .com is like their games, bloody hard too find, and get a quick answer. ;)

the left most ramp at the bottom of fishers walk next to the edge very slowly and your units will look like they went down into a hole then there hidden try it once ;D

I tried that but nothing happend, exactly which base do you mean ? as the radar map is shown 90° to the right ?

Can someone do a screenshot of it ?

Atomic Mitten · January 3, 2004

I still can't find this damn hole, where is it ? >:(

bryorama · January 3, 2004

Bottom left Island of rock on fishers plain. The hole is near the left Ramp.

I think... :P

Atomic Mitten · January 3, 2004

I read that too Bryorama, would someone screen shot it for me please !

DjCiD · January 4, 2004

We don't want people sharing bugs/cheats like this on the forums as it only encourages more ppl to use them.

We all remember the air drone thread and the trouble it caused.

Atomic Mitten · January 4, 2004

This one was stated as being harmless ?

DjCiD · January 4, 2004

Users can still exploit it by hiding their men and forcing their opponent into submission and quiting resulting in a loss.

jeff2429 · January 4, 2004

Well hopefully no one is like that. :)

Atomic Mitten · January 4, 2004

Well I see your point, but most players don't do this seriously anyway.

DjCiD · January 4, 2004

Most do not, and hopefully most would not, but you know the saying about one rotten apple.

ken124578 · January 5, 2004

You can still see the units on radar and fire at them....
