Next stage available at higher cost

[Dersaidin]

I've found when playing aliens that sometimes there'll be one or two people on one team who are doing realy well and killing heaps of enemies (yay goon!), to the point where they have 9 evolve points just sitting there.

I think it should be possible for players to buy/evolve higher than the stage their in for twice the cost. So, if I'm in S1, and I'm a dragoon with 9 points. It'd be 1 point to go dragoon -> adv dragoon.
But thats up in S3, 2 stages higher, so make it cost (for example) 1 * 2 * 3 = 6. So in S1, it'd be 6 points to go dragoon -> advanced dragoon.
 
ie. <point> * <S2> * <S3>
If you were in S2, and wanted to go goon -> adv goon, that'd cost 3 points.

For balance issues, perhaps change the S3 extra multiplier to 4. Then S1 goon -> adv goon would be 8 points.

The same applies to human weapon costs.

OBJECTION!

Tremulous isn t Quake3. Tremulous is a game with some strategy : the whole point of the stage system is to prevent a single skilled player from deciding the issue of the game by itself. With a stage system, a skilled player has to play with his team in order to up the whole team to the next stage.

So NO

Well said. Stage one tyrants = alien in favor for every game. Sure, you could have a battle suit, but tyrants and advanced goons are much more dangerous to any base.
