A New Idea
 

Welp, been a while since I posted an idea. I got this random thought that popped into my head-- A futuristic form of barbed wire.

This could be a weapon carried by defenders and (maybe) marines.

Step 1: Buy a left nano wall (crappy name I made quickly). I also made a crappy image to go with it.

Step 2: Buy a right nano wall.

Step 3: Go into Zone and lay a left wall down. When done, lay the right wall down at a reasonable distance from the left (if it's too far the wall won't activate). If done correctly, this should appear (I swear to god... if you laugh):

This could introduce a good use of the particle engine in Zone. The features of the wall are as followed:

Provides a barrier to bullets and players.
Provides a reason to select a minority class.
Can help introduce use of tactics.

Of course this can't stay forever. The wall disappears after ten minutes or until one of the walls are destroyed (300 hp).

More ideas after input.

Tactics is exactly what Zone lacks. I like it.

Yes I like it to.

Of course there should also be vertical placement and not just horizontal like in the images.

Ya. I have a question. These cant work on the ladders where you get the bases right? Cause then it might be a little cheap.

yea its good, what happend if u walk in2 a wall, cos ppl could give the other team b1 and put one outside the bunker door, that would be lame

Good idea, should be good fun if there are too many enemies and you block their path, while laughing at them. Until...that is, the wall gets destroyed.

I like it. I'd be like an electric fence for your hq.

Keep in mind they can be destroyed. Another note: the hp I provided is not static; it may be changed to something lower (250 hp).

Also keep in mind that they can't be placed on blocking areas.

If you're dumb enough to let them trap you against a wall then you deserve it. ;)

Edit: If you mean blocking the B1 door then I'd call it more of a tactic. Like a non-lethal type of mine.

I think I might change the idea of blocking bullets too. I can see how it would be abused and/or stupid.

Oh ok its good then.

Nya-ha-ha-ha-ha
So, the fence stops bullets and hurts the other team if they run into it?

Yes, but I was thinking about dropping the bullet blocking.

How about it only blocks plasma bullets?

Stefan and I were talking about being able to buy some sort of walls and place them on a map. Maybe this could be used for it. Anyone willing to try some GFX?

:O lemme see what i can do...

+1 idea points for Jin. I like it.

i like it 2, maybe it can give u like an electron shock if ur daft enough 2 walk in2 it

Thank you very much :D

Bike+Wall=Boom. I hope.

I think if you walk through it, it will do 30 dmg. It may be a bit over powered but it'll teach a valuable lesson

Agreed ;)

A valubale lesson for what?

Not to **** with the nano wall.

ROFL!!!

But anyway's I got a picture for the wall. I didnt make it though. Google did ;)

Well?
WADDAYAWAITINGFOR?????

Metal bullets would be disintegrated/melted... plasma bullets would just be absorbed and make the shield stronger... I don't see how metal bullets would go through...

My bad lol.

Here it is.

Why is it posted twice?

One person should be able to climb on each post and basically shoot from up there. Explosives should be able to fired above the wall. Mortars would be quite useful in the field of war now. :D

I couldnt even tell you....

Linking error.

Oh,ok thanks. I got confsued their we awhile :frown:

I couldn't see the pic in the post where you said you found it... ehhhh sorry...

Anyways, interesting...
