I was thinking that we've got, like, humans, right? And we've got, like, buggy aliens.

So now we need a third race that, y'know, use psychic powers and cybernetic enhancements.

Your thoughts?

tremulous starts after humans escaped from the machines (once the machines was servants of man Now they are the ruler of them)
A mad scientist called Kranger in collony ship F012A suggested to use a clone army to find new places to colonize. Since there was only a small amount of humans. Finally they found a nice planet to colonize. But the only thing on this planet was the remains of another race. They left it for one reason - ALIENS. Only hope for humans became that planet and their clone army.
They had limited supplies. And those aliens were less intelligent but more violent. And they started to evolve as they interact( kill :P ) with more humans.

Sounds interesting but...

1. Nearly all current maps are designed for two teams
2. Lots of work is required for a 3rd team - 2d, 3d, animation, sound, code, maps for 3 teams
3. There is already much work to be done on other features, including resolving balance issues, see http://tremulous.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2242


If enough peope want this feature then they could work together to build a mod, but I doubt it'll be included in trem any time soon, if ever.

so why couldnt the machines come back to attempt to subjugate the humans?

a three-way map would be horrible-not for the confusion of who is on wat team, but the score window wouldnt be able to hold three lists AND there would be problems when one team lost and there are still two other teams

if i had any idea how to do this, i would try to, but i dont have any ideas

The main problem is how you'd get a team to fit in not what they are. As atm you have humans-slow but ranged, and aliens-fast but melee.

An idea might be to have a 3rd team that basically lives off the other 2, by having a weak base class and that is able to take over the bodies of the recently deceased, giving you some/all of whatever that person was capable of.

or how about the middle?
little bit ranged, and little bit fast.
Little bit ranged sounds kind of confusing though...
this one should also have the base they have to build faster

It's a decent idea, but i doubt it would ever happen.  For now, I'd much prefer a HvH...

haha, if that IS true, then I would pick them (shotgun and flamer favorite :D)
for you Digi_Byte, you mean, like a mission? Is that like CTF, where one gets the artifact (like a flag) and takes it away?

Vampires robots protoss blaaaah. We need DALEKS!  

http://www.interocitor-media.com/tardis/dalek/schem_side.jpg

Their taunt could be "EXTERMINATE!". In Doctor Who they shoot gas that destroys everything. That would be kinda middle range, of course there should be a long range laser cannon. They aren't that fast but not that slow either. Perfect! Builders would be weak and slow daleks.

edit. Snakes would also be cool.

Wow, you guys are neglecting the single most ingenious idea.

The third race is genetically augmented WW2 Wehrmacht soldiers, transported through time to combat the alien menace. As far as storyline is concerned, the Wehrmacht successfully eliminate all aliens, then proceed to put all ethnic and religious marines into concentration camps. Then Herbert, the one dretch who survived without the Wehrmacht noticing, sabotages the German execution machines to free all the marines. Then the commanding Marine, Sgt. Smith, lives a wonderful life having wacky adventures with Herbert. There's a television show spinoff, and millions of dollars worth of Herbert and Smith merchandise. They'd even have their own theme song.

"Ohhhhhhhh ittttttt's Herbert and Smith, Herbert and Smith, the wacky adventures of Herbert and Smith,
One eats with a mouth, one absorbs nutrients through a membrane,
And together they get revenge on those evil german Nazis!
One's got two fists, the other a poisonous tongue-like appendage..."

.....

Shut up, it's a good story.

ooh ooh ooh!
How about those characters from Warhammer? Come on... you know you want to!
Also, maybe the new thing for these new race is that they have to PICK up the items.
Like in AVP2. Humans buy (right? I'm not sure...) Aliens melee attack, and predators pick up.

...meh...
