Ammo costs money...

[Sanity]

A great way to stop camping is to make ammo cost money, If you buy the weapon you get the gun and no ammo, and ammo costs 1-10 cash a piece depending on the weapon, that way if humans are camping and the aliens are smart enough to not die, they will soon be left with no ammo no cash and generally hopeless.

The only exception being if you spawn with rifle, in which you still get default ammo, but once you use all that ammo you need to buy some to get some more. I understand that this isn't a stop to camping, and would probably need some balance tweaks, but nevertheless it would probably bring down the camping on humans alot.

NOEZ!!  i can picture it in the headlines...

*NEW WAY OF CAMPING!  PSAW PROVES AWESOME!*

unless you have to 'buy' energy, which would be pathetic...

and also, it might do the opposite effect, it might encourage camping to gain camping credits...

That would be idiotic cause you need to get out of base to attack with psaw , and any smart goon would pounce in, pounce out, and people would be chasing with psaws.

Remove camping credits, simple. Or make them less so they would really only do anything if you didnt use any ammo.

Sorry, pals, but reducing "camping" credits is stupid. It is a kind of reward for not getting killed or, in other words, not feeding the other team, which is supposed to be something good!

EH well just make ammo cost more money, either way if ammo costs money, camping credits wont offset the cost if they waste ammo and spam.

I dont really like this idea.

Shooting aliens would become more costly than the ammo, and only the 2 or 3 kill-whores in your team would have enough money to kill anything.

All the other non-rad people wouldnt be able to do anything (except chainsaw en-mass) so people would be really fed up, puissed off, and lave the game.

I personally like this idea.
The cost for buying ammo should different for each weapon, but the price should stay the same even though you've full ammo.
Per bullet would get prices that get over the top lol.

It's bad enough now.  You're saying the poor A-Team isn't happy with their almost 2 / 3 win ratio?

[Coolicus]

Yeah and when you build your base and advance up you should get various bills such as reactor insurance, if the reactor blows up you get a new one free (not like that happens anyway) and all this costs is a measley 1000 creds, failure to buy insurance would result in the human team being sued  .
On a serious note, go ahead and mod it in if you wish, Im sure it wouldnt be that hard, but as for the mainstream I doubt it would be very popular and you might as well just ban any new players on site, think about it you spawn with your rifle "OMG IMA SHOOT T3H ALIENZ LOLZ!" *click* *click* "OMG WTF GAY LOL" */disconnect*

The only reason humans lose is cause their to stupid to work as a team, not camping helps a team ALOT even if they suck (they just need to work as a team)

Or rifle ammo free but rifle weakened.

Im not saying it should be only human changes, something to offset ammo cost wouldnt be to hard to think off.

Teams that don't do teamwork also tend to feed (or be killwhores that scream at their team for camping, when, in fact their newb or n00b team is feeding).

IMHO, Trem could use a Radio system like Urban Terror's:

Making ammo cost credits wouldn't really solve anything. If I ran out of rifle ammo, I'd suicide or feed a hungry dretch rather than trying to kill anything with a blaster. And lowering the rifle damage, even by one would be a terrible idea. Instead of 5 hits to kill a dretch, it'd now take seven. Also, aliens could easily starve the humans just by playing as they usually do; by running away when their HP gets low. Now, no one will be shooting at those rants or goons anymore since its a waste of money, and everyone who doesn't feed will be building turrets til' sudden death, when the aliens will most likely win.

Your an idiot if you havent figured this out yourself.

Make buying guns come with no ammo? Problem solved.

Idiot...

Hmm.. let me explain myself further.....

1. you are an idot
2. Making amo cost anything would be just pain in the ass and disbalence the game
2.5 buying guns with no amo is again a pain in the ass.
3. You can refill amo from rc and repeters ( are you going to put prices on refilling amo fro mthere too?)
4. Battery pack refills amo for energy wepons if you buy/sell it.
5. My last post wasn't serious like this whole topic so you fail.
6. I can bet no one will codde your idia so you faill twice now.
6. Are you a EU player? I would like to find you in game and see how well you play. Probably you suck ballz.

1. Wtf you just repeated me.
2. I said it needed some balancing.
3. Get binds.
4. Easily fixed self explanatory.
5. And I'm spose to know that how?
6. I would be VERY surprised if no one could code the idea.
7. You got said 6 twice, PS I'm an Australian player.

By the way, you can't spell for shit, like it dosent have to be perfect but make it readable.
