use corpse! pls let me explain
« on: May 25, 2007, 06:53:24 am »
Well, i was playing ctf |Fa| server! and there was this zombie that was using the corpse of red as a disguise Soooooooooooooooo..

  I was thinking, maybe we have the c button be used to pick up the bodies and use them as shields (although they basically don't have any hp) and if there are still alive then maybe in realistic mod they can be used as pow!though basically i don't the other players care 'bout them.


GIVE ME YOUR THOUGHTS AND SUGGESTIONS PLEASE AND IF YOU HATE IT TELL ME WHY SO THAT I CAN (BLAH)!

F11, not a good idea, that's what vests are for.

I dunno, maybe as an option and only in survival mode (that way, no holding someone's body as a shield against their own bullets after they respawn.)

Plus, you can only do it if you have no weapon, and any bullets fast enough to go through the body will still hit you, but for less damage. AND you automatically drop it when it takes enough damage to explode into bloody chunks. And it's not always held in front of you, like the knife, but aimable, like the saw.

It'd be pretty cool, actually, although I don't play much survival.



Just...Not as a weapon. No way.

 And no grabbing people while they're alive xD

I agree with Lord Frunkamunch..
It could be the last chance to live in survival mode and it would make it more like a real battle

Feeding off of the idea...

How about also an option of "stealing" the dead dude's outfit? To decieve other people. This would be great for INF I think.

Bushes in R/S? Hmm...

I support Frunkamunch's idea.

Maybe you should be able to pick up a body like a weapon, but not use it as a weapon.

Should be an option, though.
Don't say that you're Magic. Because you aren't, and I am.
All-around good with weapons that aren't long range, except in TW.
Now be careful out there, soldier.

Ehh, the taking uniform idea...If it were added (and I doubt it would be, a bit too much of an advantage)
it'd have to take a long time to steal the uniform, or be taken away if shot.

Yeah, that'd actually be pretty cool, now that I think of it. Combined with FF, it'd add a whole new level of strategy. Take the time to aim at aim at him, to see whether you can see his health of not, or shoot him and risk annoying your teammate...Plus, if you were wearing one you'd have to be careful to dodge shots from both sides to stay disguised..

nvm to the first comment in this post; NOW I've convinced myself it would rock.

Oh no, not again...

Am I the only one who hates people using this single response without any backup evidence besides that it would 'Ruin the feeling of Soldat'? Seriously, what are we, neanderthals who, if given anything even SLIGHTLY more advanced than pac-man are unable to play because of undue complication?

Didn't feel like typing it again.

Frunkamunch, it WOULD make it too much more complicated. It would add an unnecessary feature.

Ehh, if it was an option only the people who wanted it would use it. Plus, because it could only work on survival, the vast majority of the community wouldn't be affected, and, again, not all survival servers would choose it.

Unnecessary-ness...is in the eye of the...Err...Bah.

Also, I still don't see how that's overly complicated.

It would add something that would require a lot of coding that only a very, very small portion of the community would use.

Ah, good point.

Bah, thought of another reason stealing uniforms wouldn't be that great.

(Team) [Major] Lord Frunkamunch just stole my uniform, he's got gray pants and a shotgun.

I still say picking up bodies would kick ***.
