Small list of suggestions

Got a great new idea for the game?

Small list of suggestions

Postby Exor » Mon Apr 23, 2012 7:34 pm

Sorry if these have already been made, but I figured I'd throw my two cents in.

The ability to raid supplies from a dead soldier. (ammo, grenades, etc...)
Other kinds of strikes besides Air Strikes. Maybe like, dropping ammo or health onto a part of the map for your team.
It would be kind of funny to be able to punch people (if you have no weapon and don't want to use your spade)
Having the enemy intel do something when you capture it? Maybe something along the lines of seeing the enemy teamchat for a few moments, or showing were the enemies are again for a brief period?
Something to steal besides the enemy intel? Maybe camping in their tent gives you 1 extra grenade or something?
Fish in the water? Just for grins and giggles?
It'd be interesting to see bullet holes where people have shot indestructible map features such as the ground, or things of that nature.

I'll probably conjure up more suggestions later, but these are the ones off the top of my head.

  • Raid from dead soldier - I'd accept this one, a little package of ammo/nades would be pretty good - perhaps the amount of ammo the person happened to have left in their magazine, if it is the same gun as you currently have
  • Ammo/Health drops - I know many people have negative feelings towards this, but I personally don't see why it would be that much of a problem. It's not that abusable and could be pretty handy. May also get the campers out of their 'hidey holes'
  • Punching - don't really see the necessity of this :P
  • Intel capture rewards - heck yes, wanted the intel cap reward back from the moment it was removed
  • Fish - uuuhhhh
  • Bullet holes - ragdoll-style player models would be interesting to see, if not quite gory. If it could be a config setting, I can't see why not.

<@mikuli> the bad part in this plan is that it involves an already busy tea-drinking scone chomper with a monocle

I'd also find it useful to be able to swap weapons without dying, or the ability to carry 2 at once and swap them at will.

  • Swap without dying - At Command Post, it's long overdue.
  • Carry two weapons - as a default I'd be against this. Carrying two primary weapons I have debated before on the old forums (can't find the thread, but it was long complicated and I came out still unsure about it). The only thing I can think of in the back of my head is being able to use slots more flexibly.. have an extra slot that could the "Extras" - health/ammo/nade/revival packs (if revival is ever introduced) or perhaps a satchel charge (if introduced) or a pistol (if introduced)

Though all this is quite a meal for debate :>

Maybe a few new death poses depending on how you were killed? Nothing gory, but say if you're shot in the back, you fall forwards instead of backwards, or if you get killed against a wall you fall back on it. Just a little variety from the norm.

Also, maybe a reward for the winning team? Like a 1 use only item? Maybe...1 free airstrike for the person who won, or body armor that gives you the ability to survive one or two extra shots, or one 1 shot kill, just something as an incentive to win other than bragging rights. Maybe the options for their reward change based on how they won the game? Or based on the game mode itself? To me, it's the little things that make a game. ;)

More intel cap rewards/perks go well with me. More should be done on that front.

As for cosmetics like death poses, I have no real problem with these except the time it would take to code.

On my server the player that captures the intel gets an airstrike reward, but it doesn't encourage teamwork much.
