Adding stamina-bar.

Got a great new idea for the game?

I don't see a problem with letting people sprint around and you know, not stop stop and wait once every 10 seconds for no real reason.

Put on military equipment and try to sprint, well see how long you can do it. A healthy bit of realism doesn't kill you.

This game has never been realistic, even more so now with click and drag mysteriously materializing a giant ass line of blocks into thin air.

actually, maybe unlimited sprint might be fine. right now for the map sizes, they should probably put some type of limit on it(but it isn't really needed) maybe if the maps get to be very large then unlimited sprint would be good, because in some other games it takes too long to get places on such huge maps. I don't know, it'd just make the feature feel more seamless( or something)

Well, Ben could make it so that people actually swim in water, and are unable to shoot. This would also force people to build bridges.

No i hate stamina bars and waiting to refill it.
Now sprinting needs roads and building roads is cool the stamina refill waiting would nerf if you sprint 10 sec on a road and then wait 10 sec to refill.

Thatd also mean theyd be unable to build in the water, which defeats the purpose of doing that to begin with.

I think that sprint limitation is unnecessary.
I used to think that adding this will make the game worse, but after seeing how quicker block removal and sprinting actually diversifies gameplay, i think that limitation like this would be unneeded...

Also: shutting up because i have caused some annoyances lately.

I imagined it to be more like this:
-Sprint 10 secs
-Refill time while running: 15 secs
-Refill time while standing still or crouching: 10secs
-Refill time while staying still and crouching: 5secs

Who actually goes to the water and starts building the bridge while in water?

I'm not saying it's an absolute must-have, but adding limited stamina would greatly increase teamwork, like i said in the OP.

Unless theyre building it over a canyon, theyre going to do whatever is fastest, which is diving into the water and building it that way instead of slowly inching, even more so now with click and drag.

And how so?

Well, i guess you're right. But bridge-building is supposed to be slow, and now with the click&drag, that slowly inching is also a lot quicker.

And how so?

I make the assumption that you're asking how does this increase teamwork? Read the OP.
