Changing weapons without dying at the tent

Got a great new idea for the game?

Should you be able to switch weapons at the tent?

Changing weapons without dying at the tent

Postby PXYC » Fri Apr 06, 2012 10:09 pm

When I am playing, I often want to switch weapons quickly, and I have to die, spawning me in a random place in my base, and screwing up my ratio. So, my suggestion is that you can switch weapons without dying and messing up your ratio if you are standing on the tent. After all, you get healed anyway, so why not be able to change weapons?

Seems like a plausible idea.

Not just on, but a small area around the tent.
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.

Seems legit.
OR some kind of an option (that I have no idea how to toggle) that allows to:
respawn when you change weapons (OFF)
change weapons when you are in a certain area of the tent (ON)

I think this would be a good idea, except the Command Post sometimes does a bad job of realizing when you're there, so this could lead to you dying even though you were already at the Command Post when you chose to switch weapons.

I was going to suggest this
Being able to switch weapons without dying at the tent is useful
I dont really care about ratio, its just annoying having to kill yourself to grab another weapon

There should be a restriction though because I can predict players will be camping the tents.

Players already camp at their tents, so it won't make much of a difference.

Agreed, it's not like changing weapons will be that big of a leg-up for campers.

There is a cooldown between each time you can refill your ammo and health, allowing you to switch weapons if you're in the tent would allow you to constantly replace your gun for another one filled with ammo, the solution is as simple as tracking how much ammo each player has for each gun and not refilling your ammo when you switch it at your tent

also maybe not only change but make players to be able to buy weapons for gold, like in cs
P.S. Current gold-gain/spend system sux (i bet you wont argue)
