False Blocks

Got a great new idea for the game?

False Blocks

Postby MrMeow » Sun Jul 01, 2012 8:46 pm

My idea was that when you place a block in the menu where you select colors there would be a False-Block color, The False-Block would vanish when it is stepped on or hit after 2 seconds [?] making a crumbling noise as a warning. The block would cost 10 Blocks to place and gives 5 [?] blocks if you delete it.

Pros
Players can make elaborate traps
It would help with defense
It would encourage players to pay more attention

Cons
It could be spammed
It'd make intel capping harder
You would have to sample the terrain to switch colors

Thoughts?

How would you know whether or not a block is a fake?
To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

didn't pyspades make something like this? I remember a video with disappearing blocks. anyway, it might be cool, more traps would be cool in this game

When you run over it or step on it, It would make the sound that a collapsed building would.
Or it would have a small hazard sign that you could only see when concentrating?

Well, I'm sure no one wants this to become the ultimate Fack you thing.
I'm sure a 1 block gap would balance it out.

I mean that when you place one you would wouldn't be able to put one right next to it.

Sounds epic! It would help trick the enemy. Though it would be a total jerk move in bridge wars, but that's the point of it anyway. /signed

I think this sounds fine. Maybe add it so you can only place 10 False Blocks at once?
+3

It would take 10 blocks to place one so you could place 5.
Or it would (like you said) take 5 and you can place 10.
