If Trem got a grappling hook, I'd pee myself every time I played.

The only change needed for RP servers would be a chat bubble sign, (thing pops above your head, showing your chatting.) And more lines for the chat area.

more suggestions I have:
8: FEMALE models. I've pretty much seen all male models on tremulous, (except for aliens who have an undeterminable gender) and I think there needs to be an option for female models, so this game can appeal to girls who play. (Even though i'm a guy, I still think there should be that option to make it appeal more to other people.)
9: Customizable bodies/faces - I think you all are familiar with this, the ability to change your look in games could highly increase popularity, since it's somewhat boring looking at an army clones.
10: Customizable items - the ability to paint/color your armor or anything your holding/wearing to a different color/shape.
11: More buildables - possibly small vehicles/weapons or the ability to build walls and gates. Maybe even watch towers and such.
12: More weapons (I suggested this earlier, but wasn't specific on what.)
Aliens:
A: Spider string - able to pull humans to you (only able to use a certain amount of times on one type of alien?)
B: Sonic Roar - temporarily stun a human by making a loud roar.
C: Acid - (similar to the human flamethrower, except the aliens spit acid)
D : Suicidal explode - The ability to run up to a human and blow yourself up, which would cause your acidic blood to hurt and poison the human. (does not affect buildings however.)
Humans:
A: Single/Dual magnums (Halo 2 style, new alternate for blaster/pistol)
B: Laser guided Sniper (A sniper rifle with a laser on it and scope)
C: Swarmer (fires 5 plasma bolts at once in a spread shot)
D : Advanced Blaster (Also an alternate for the blaster, fires stronger shots)
E: Mass-driver pistol (Self explainatory, fires a single strong shot, but is an alternate for the blaster/pistol, and is weaker than the mass-driver)
(I would have more ideas, but my mind is kinda blank atm. lol)
14: Trade ability: Able to trade not only credits, but items/weapons as well.

making the alien crosshair the same size as adv mara / adv goon and being able to change it to that little weird looking one if you want
will sort out my sig, or I will get banned.

Maybe as its own gametype.  A kind of inverse tag where the human gets a chaingun with infinite ammo and a grappling hook.  Maybe all the aliens can be marauders? :P

benmachine would be pretty pissed off if humans got +hook, timbo hijacked that variable for wallwalking.

I agree with all of these, to the degree that they can be included without too much slowdown. And perhaps also that, unlike most games, the colors will be a bit limited to certain non-garish tones so it keeps 1) the atmosphere of the game and 2) the precious eyesight of anyone who places value on aesthetics.

B: Sonic Roar - temporarily stun a human by making a loud roar.

Are you mad, boy? The aliens do not need their own louder equivalent of "Come on!!1"

It doesn't necessarily have to make the roaring sound. It could make some high pitched sonic noise you know. lol ^_^

I would love to see something to limit turtling (which is what happens now). The domination mod is pretty good but does give a slight edge to aliens. Perhaps work on balancing the domination mod a little and then making that the primary gamemode.

An alien that can implant an embryo inside a human, then some time later when the human is back at the base, he dies explosively and a wee dretch springs forth from his chest.

Tutorial
« Reply #167 on: May 16, 2007, 09:02:46 am »
I'd like to see some sort of tutorial/training room for the game since it has a steeper learning curve than most FPSes, and since a lot of n00bs never read the manual. For example, the human "training room" might consist of a room with a spawn point and a reactor in it. An announcer would tell you to build turrets/armory/etc, telling you which buttons to press and telling you the purpose of each building. When you've built them you can move on to the target range. You then learn how to use each weapon/throw grenades/use medkit/go back to the armory to buy more ammo. The announcer could also go through what happens when the stage increases/etc. An alien "training room" would follow the same lines.

And a nice voice command system, so the unfortunate human could plead to his teammates back at base, "Kill me! Kill meeeeee".

And, once you infect the human, your old dretch dies.  In the meantime, instead of waiting in the spawn queue, you actually have spectator mode from the human you just infected, and possibly, you can even control his movements in some small way (directing him where you want, or at least fighting him to move that way).  Once the alien hatches, you can try to scurry to safety, and after some countdown timer expires, you evolve to a wallwalking tyrant.  Bam! Get 'er done!

ogg support is already in the tremulous source code, all timbo has to do is set a flag in the makefile.

If there is 1 thing I want to see but hasn't been mentioned, its this:
Go though the cvars and scrap all the unused remains of what once was quake 3.
Like "g_teamname stroggs" or variables for rail-gun options.
Even FOV customization is currently useless and retains no functionality.
A lot of dead code there, who wants to be the undertaker?

I'd love to see those added back into a good lolmod like Relics. I liked the ones from UT, too (although the bot taunts got really old after the 3rd ladder). "Headshot", "Double Kill", "Multi Kill" & "Rampage" were all great. It would be awesome to get a dretch headshot that croaks a marine and hear the in-game announcement. XD 8] ;p

More scoreboard information, i.e. feeds.  I'd rather see the score board show damage instead of kills.  Damage to the other players, structures, and friendly fire damage.

Well i don't have enough time to read the entire thread but here are my suggestions.
1.) Yes, more weapons for humans i would like one of these in Trem. we need a sniping weapon (modify already existing weapon?), a laser, maybe an explosive rocket launcher like device or grenade launcher extension of a gun, ANYTHING to replace the Lucifer cannon (i'm a hater of its ability to cause many TK's)
2.) using a medkit on someone else. I have shot people who got in my line of fire and wished i could make it up for them (especially when i see them get owned by a tyrant.
3.) Aliens need at least 1 more ranged attack. Acid that degrades armor a bit and causes defence loss (can only be used once every minute or have some delay mechanism). If not maybe like alien tounge that can extend a bit and can cause light to moderate damage? (along with advanced basilisk's poison damage?)
4.) Another alien creature?
5.) New maps?
6.) New radar
Alright well i think i have made enough suggestions that would completely destroy Trem's balance. My eyes are burning from staring at the computer screen for too long so thats all.......(Oh and first post)
e who laughs last thinks slowest.
