Boomers

[MuNsTeR]

Hey i think boomers are good and all i just think you should be able to plant them anywhere.. even on people and vhicles.. and make them explode where ever the open side is facing

How about planting them on people, sneak up behind someone and stick it to their back so if they ran they still were screwed. :lol:

lol ur goin to show that everywhere now arnt u?

[SandTrout]

I would love it, but it would be unfair.

[martyr]

how about being able to plant them on rexo & maxes when they've been still for >1second?

[SandTrout]

It's not going to happen, and it shouldn't happen. Boomers are remote booby-traps, not sticky bombs.

Vehicles would be the only one I would say to allow boomers to be planted on.

yeah, sticking them to people is gay, there would be a lot more cloakers then. sticking them to vehicles would be funny, get a squad of cloakers with boomers to stick boomers to a vanguard, all press the trigger at once... one HELL of a lightshow :rofl:

i think you should be able to make destoriable guard towers (tho this would make the game more of an RPG instead of an FPS, but oh well) anywho, the tower would hold up to 5 rexos, 7 agiles, 9 standards, cloakers cant enter. it only "guards" when there are people in it. So, if no one is in it, its just another obsitile for a tank to blow through. It can take 4 van shots (you do the math for what else it can take from other vehicles/weapons, since vanguard cannons are the second most powerful weapon in the whole damn game [first being the OS]) What do you guys think?

well, technicly they arent "sticky bombs", but they can stick to walls, i think that counts towards being a sticky bomb

Why do rexo's get fucked, its not like their taht much more combat effective then the surgiles of the world.

I do agree it would be nice to tweak the explosions so that it doesn't go 'up' constantly. It's nice that we can stick a boomer on a wall, but how cool is that really when the blast doesn't go out from the wall like it should? It's hard as hell to kill a single soldier running past a wall boomer, and impossible (I believe) to kill somebody with a ceiling boomer.

I'm indifferent about placing boomers on vehicles for the most part, now that you can place boomers way closer to vehicles than you used to be able to I'm not sure how much I'd use it. That being said, it would be fairly sweet to lace a number of boomers on a vehicle and watch what happens when you add a single jammer 'nade.

I don't like the idea of putting them on vehicles... then we'd have people placing them on their own mosquitoes and flying them into enemy bases like suicide bombers... (ruh-oh I said suicide bombers... mod me)

[DeadTeddy]

it might be nice to stick them on the prowler when the crew gets out to hack a tower, then kablam!

and about suicide bombers, just so you know israelies do it too, more then anyone else actually. sad really.

dude, think for a second... if that were to work you would need to and on whatever u wanted to blow up (because the crash of bailing would most likely destroy the boomer)
get out, ready the trigger, and press it, taking way too much time (meaning that u woud probaly aready be dead), and also the fact that the boomer would really only damage the mossie. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[ChewyLSB]

Yeah I really meant have the same person in the cockpit as the guy with the boomerse... I meant have a DIFFERENT guy in the cockpit, have him go close to a bunch of enemy tanks, if they shoot the mosquito, boom, they die anyways, if they don't, the guy pulls the trigger, instant death tank. Remember, he could put up to 20 boomers on the same plane, since boomers don't have a minimum distanes between them.

If they could be put on vehicles, you'd have one cloaker sitting on the wall of an nme base with a jammer nade in hand, and another cloaker driving a wraith loaded with neutral boomers up next to a tank . . .

so, the wraith would be visible cause the boomers are on it
