motorbikes for trem?

[Shadowgandor]

No, we need this:

[maxell]

well why don't we put all of them put we need someone to make them ( i can't) and most people here can't so if you can voice up

[TinMan]

I can't click your "smite" link quick enough.

QFT!!!

I can't applaud that sentiment quick enough.

[seeeker]

TinMans alive =O

[player1]

Or at least his account has been reactivated...

So far, it seems consistent with the character once known as "TinMan". Further observation required.

Great, something to make unlimited build servers lag even more...   

Jk.....sorta

See, now there's a serious suggestion. What would the Humans get, though?

[jackForward]

Hummies get a pogostick and discover new ways to enter the alien base or fight those damned maras.

[player1]

Another serious suggestion, in a thread full of fail...

[seeeker]

Id like to see one of those onewheel vehicles stuck on mud or something, driver would spin like crazy lol

[player1]

I think something like this would be appropriately balanced for Trem action (providing, of course, that you're talking about jumpboost-enabled pogo sticks for the Humans).

I wonder if the OP got the message yet...

[The_Spy]

Even with a vehicle for humans, Aliens would need to have some MASSIVE kickass new class to counter it. Plus: Vehicle+ATCS=FAIL

[Archangel]

Wow, you like necroposting AND ellipses too...

[cactusfrog]

my idea would be to make a huge battlesuit-robot looking thing, it would carry two humans (one driver and one gunner)
Human goes to arm, purchases such armour (2000 creds for just the vehicle) then it works like a hovel, where another human gets close to the player using the unit and presses q or something to enter as gunner)
The "Mobile Suit" (=D) would have lots of hp and would need to have slow movements and turn rates.
There could also be addons to it, like a "Energy Storage" that could also allow other players to recharge energy weapons in it
Also it would need to be impossible to switch between gunner and driver (to avoid too much power to the unit and add make the gunner death a weakpoint)

Edit:

As long as they can't aim upward at my flying alien.

No, I would think more like this:

[atomic1fire]

A carrier class alien,
One alien that can carry several other smaller ones, with reasonably good defense. with an acid tube or something on its back.

[CreatureofHell]

no alien needs carrying. the tyrant has charge, goons have pounce, dretches have speedhax and basi's have gas drugs. and grangers stay at home

[player1]

It's fun to reply without even reading the thread!

I'm risking the existence of my account to revive this topic  .  But while I'm sacrificing my account , I will say this;  It would be too easy to have ATCS cleared of the middle part and have vehicle spawns right outside the human base (if vehicles and spawns were already created, that is).  And just like the water alien idea, maps are made with little space because we don't NEED all that much area.  In fact, that makes it better for the aliens.  So maybe we can make bigger areas in maps where there will be vehicles, and spots where it's too tight for them to exist.

I know this sounds dramatic, folks, but my account is probably gonna be deleted for replying to an old post.  So I will say my goodbyes.  Thank you, everyone, for giving me such a great time on the Tremulous forums (even if I just made a fool of myself all the time).  No, I'm not making a new account.  Sorry.  But who cares?  You guys never liked me anyway.  So if you reply and I don't reply back, then that means that my account's gone.  Bye, Trem fans, and thank you for being flamers (I get a good laugh all the time here)!

[UniqPhoeniX]

Trem maps don't have large areas/lots of water not because we don't need it, but because those make the map totally human biased.

[Minimum]

Bad idea. The only games in which vehicles actually work in multiplayer are Battlefield... and maybe Halo.

Plus, motorbikes on ATCS? Where the hell would you go?

It's nice to see a polite and well considered necro. It's refreshing. Still best to just not do it. Just start a new thread with a link to this thread in it.

I don't think you have anything to worry about anyway, if ULTRA Random ViruS hasn't had his account deleted I don't see why yours would be. He has you beat on number and degree.

As for the actual topic, if you want areas that you can traverse the map fast and areas that you can't, just stick a moving platform in. I don't see any situation where vehicles add to gameplay unless you changed tremulous a great deal from what it is now. Still, if you can code it be my guest to try it out.

I have and I have. I think both those games would be better off with more maps not built around vehicles. Tribes 2 maybe less so, I thought Tribes 2 was a game pretty close to perfection, but still.

EDIT: Additonally, you're the one whose been "Doped up", according to your horrid grammar.
