Hookd on game duh. But here are some Suggestions
« on: May 06, 2006, 06:38:38 am »
Here are some ideas for the game that I think would rock.

An upgrade structure for aliens that provide all Dretch with more life maybie like x2. So instead of 25% itll be 50%.

An alien class that can lay acid kinda like mines... The alien has 25% hp like Dretch do. It can climb. Its not as fast as Dretch thoe. It attack sucks besides its acid laying. Human helmet can detect the acid blobs. Maybie call it a Zelg?

An alien class that is like a Zelg but instead of lay acid it shoots acid. It has no attack besides shooting acid. Maybie call it a Gren?

An alien class that is fairly slow and big but can explode itself killing it and others with it. You have to hold Mouse1 for 5 seconds to make it exlode. It has no other attack. *cant think of a name*

An alien class that is a Dretch with wings. Can fly. Do Dretch attack and dmg. No climb. Wen its in fly mode thoe it gives off a somewhat loud hum.
Calld a Wing'd Dretch simple as that?

Humans can pick hair and skin color in options along with name.

Human BattleSuits cost more. 500c?

An alien structure that works as the human machine gun turret. Range same. Shoots Darts. A bit less more dmg then the machine gun turret does. A bit less more speed then the machine gun turret does. *cant think of a name*

Human blaster rounds dont take forever to go some place...

Humans Start off with not only blaster but combat knife that does about same dmg as blaster. It is most effective on Dretch. Basiclly useless like the blaster with other aliens.

Make a map like from Halo's BloodGultch. *that would be a fun fast paced match with that map.* Call it Blood Fields?

Ok welp thats all I can think of now. I may update this post If I think of new things. Hope u all like my ideas.  :D
 do agree that sometimes it is better to type out things correctly... But omg sometimes it takes forever sooo... I r pissd at sum ppl tha dont like it wen u dont Type out all. Its not being stupid its being smart.

Maybe, but only in tech 3

Aliens already seem to be a little big overpowered

Aliens are melee fighters.

Devs already decided against it

Would be great, but the developers should concentrate on other things, first.

Correct.

Why? We already do have acid tubes?

I also *hate* the blaster, but some ppl. think it is good enough :-)

I would also like to have this, although it would be very hard for dretches

I think the knife would be too hard for dretches.  As it is, a dretch is pretty difficult to play.  The one thing I would love to do as a dretch is be able to stick to humans.  I always feel like a dretch should just be able to jump on a human and stick to their head and chew away :evil: .  Maybe humans could get a knife if dretches could get the cling attack.  It could make for some fun timing things too, like if you have to have wall climbing enabled and you have to jump at just the right time.  Make it so that a full-health human vs. a full-health dretch would have to get his knife out to kill the dretch off, but if he delayed he would be dretchbait in no time.
Maybe too hard to implement and balance, but it sure would be fun, and I think totally in the spirit of the dretch's gameplay.
one way or another it would be really nice if the dretch got some kind of upgrade ability later in the game, whether it is a secondary attack or paralyzing poison, or more hit points.  or how bout an autotracking plasma rifle attached to its head...   :D

The only real annoyances i've had when playing as aliens are:

Players constantly running backwards while firing, which seems to throw off your touch to damage attacks so you get blasted while doing less to no damage.

Second is Bsuits and Luci's, where the common tactic is to just shoot at your feet full blast. Normally used for weaker 'touch to damage' classes. Kills them off easily with little damage to yourself.
