Base protection

Emily_Cruddas · #1 07-26-2005, 05:33 AM

I'm sure tired of getting base raped so badly, maybe make a safety zone? Although that could lead to abuse also so small base guns that can be destroyed, but they appear rather fast so folks can't just destroy them and keep laming right on top of your base.

Hoverbikes have become much more useful as an attack tool, folks ride right up to you and use the bike as a form of extra health, maybe rescript how they work? If the rider stands up the bike HP is ignored, so the rider takes the full ammount of damage.

And the blue rifle, is this item available only through events? If so it's way too strong and i'm surprized it was even allowed, it's a nasty habit that anyone making special items like this tend to overpower them every single time, perhaps the rate of fire could be slowed and the damage lowered?

Bluerifle is not an event item, you are able to purchase it from the traders on each planet for a price of $3500. Also for your spawn kill problem I think that once you go through the teleporter to whatever team, you should become invincible for 5 seconds so that you are able to escape from whoever trys to spawn kill you. Yet when you are invincible you are also unable to attack so that it is used for evasive actions only.

Blue rifles can be bought, can reduce the hitpoints by 1 or 2 points may be.
When entering a battle zone it should protect you for 5 seconds may be
For the ctf map we plan to add a wall builder which let's you place walls to protect some paths.

Sounds pretty good to me, and you can use the electron to cause the hoverbikes to fail, and from there just taze the poop out of the rider too.

As a matter of fact after just playing take blue rifle out completely, don't just gimp it because that will not work, the rate of fire is insane and when used with a jetpack anyone can lame and run very easy, someone was base laming, and using the jetpack to get to the dropship transporter before he dies, from there you can choose medic and heal yourself too easy, overall you can count on a player to find all the lamest ways to play a game and make others cry for a fix to it.

Why are we bringing back ctf (Wild Cross) Last time it got maybe one hit a day (Commonly). On the rarely good days there would be 5, maybe 6 people on it. So whats the point of trying it again?

Whenever I would play CTF, I would find mines from maybe a week ago and die from them, so I never played on it, except to spar people. The only good thing about it was that since no one played on it, you had a good spar spot.
