Image Retrieval - February 21, 2007

**Rarebit**

The boss is out of town, so once again I inflict you with a wild Rarebit Image Retrieval!

This week we get a sneak peak at the FX reward you'll be able to earn for completing all the Chapter 6 archived missions, scheduled to become available in Update 50.

Like previous archive chapter reward items, this one plays a temporary effect on your RSI. What effect? It's a little something I like to call

Red Eye

High-bandwidth, high-quality PNG version (611K)

You can currently see this same effect on the night-vision goggles sported by the General's shiny new Elite Commandos. This player-usable version sits over the RSI's right eye, a little in front so that you can wear glasses without blocking it. You've gotta move your RSI's head to get the most out of the effect, since it draws a line following your character's head movement.

As usual, there will be a "Perpetual" version of the item, with no time limit, available as a special reward for exemplary achievements. The Red Eye effect is a little more subtle than some of those we've had in the past, so maybe we can be a little more frisky with how many Perpetual versions we give out as rewards. Could be just the thing for that next Merv rave!

It's just one eye? Kinda....weird.... SMILEY

But cool none the less. Good show!

Excellent! And yes, I love that it's only one eye... That's one I'd love to have in its perpetual version (The story of Sykin makes use of eyes frequently, and maybe more-so in the future...).

...It would make up for the missing eyepatches in-game...

That will look slick with the hacker headgear.

**Goligoth**

**Shinryu**

Kind of cool... probably nothing I'll use much, but what can ya do? *shrug* lol

**Frink**

There's only one per chapter, nub.

**Bayamos**

There's only clothing rewards for doing Merv/Mach/Zion chapters 1-4, Frink, doing each Chapter in itself gives an effect reward... in this case, doing Mach/Merv/Zion Chapter 5 missions will give the Red Eye effect.

OMG I SO WANT THIS!

I totally need to get my hands on the perpetual version.

Hellz yeah, home-skillet. Can't wait to do some wild and crazy thing at the next event in a sad and pathetic attempt to snag the perp.
