i think it would be great if there were TV like objects in sanc like at the HART center so you can see hotspot battles live from places and see the odds and how you are doing and just because it would be great and a window on the main site that displayed the feed as well. Anyone back me on this?

Sounds like a good idea. Although I think the devs need to revamp the Sanctuaries in my opinion and add more stuff like this. Make them feel more home base like and make them busier and more active places to hang out in when your waiting or just don't want to fight at the moment.
Help add a bit of a social aspect to the game.
A simple solution the devs can do to help wtih this is INCREASE THE FUCKING HART TIMER BACK TO 10 MINS!!!!!!
That way we see random people offering lifts in the sancs. again and more people waiting in sancs.

hmmm...sounds like a good idea, thoug hthey already have something similar:
the map....
and there is a planetary map on the front of the main site. it's not live, but it's no more than thirty minutes old.
OR are you talking about live battle feeds...cuz that might be a bit hard to implement....

one of the best ideas i have heard in a long while. Good one i think this should be recommended to the PS devs

naw, I'm pretty sure he means just an enlarged map (like the old world map perhaps) showing hotspots and maybe base ownership
It would just be eye candy (seeing as you can just hit M to see a map) but it would be cool none the less

Well i think it would be SO Sweet if they made the CC rooms bigger and had screens in them showing the base like security cameras everywhere like in the halls gen room and spawn room and maby the CY. that would help SLs and CRs Defend a base alot better.

Or that room next to spawns that goes downstairs. that has a map area, so itd be easy to put the area around the base, even make it like a mini map of the base area. Thatd be cool.

And im not paying �22 to play some wannabe solo game, where everyone doesn't give a crap about team play. And rather take the frigging HART when they can take a lift with a group to attack a single objective. TOGETHER.
:rolleyes:

Instant action, it's the only way to travel ;)

no i actually mean like video from the battle. like maybe a implant, a few cameras track the hotspots and show you what is going on there (i like that one) or cameras at the base in the hallways or CY. so you can tell what is going on there, or pass time waiting for hart or somthing. none the less i think it would be cool.
and it would be cool to use jammers to keep cameras offline in bases so the enemy dont know your there.

But if a camera just happens to go offline wouldn't that mean someones down there messing with it.

whoops forgot last part, i mean like the cameras dont go offline and black it like freezes the picture to look like a empty hallway, or Cy or whatever.

thats a better idea
:groovy: i think :groovy:

I believe World of Warcraft has a live stream.... but I'll leave that for Strygun to explain :)

I think it would be neet if the Medical terminals in the Sanc could actually repair your armor :p Hows that for an uber upgrade? lol

Actually, that used to be the case if you owned a bio lab.

I dont know if anyone has seen this in the game but their are cameras there. I seen a set in the tech plant, there a secuirty booth with secuirty cameras but all they do is show small screen shots of areas in and around the base.

First, it would be better to have repair/ream stuff for land and air vehicules in Sanctuaries. It could be useful...

Awwwww! Whats the matter? Can't wait the 10 fucking seconds to do an instant action?

Actually I think it was the extra 5 minutes for a HART he didn't want to wait for.... but I could have read it wrong.

Yeah, the Sancs need some love. Orbital stations would be cool, a ceremonial hall (like in Star Wars Episode 4) would be cool, customizable outfit-owned "barracks" buildings would be cool... For now, Sanc is booooring. :(

Yeah, like med terminals needed that nerf haha :p

Well the devs have spoken saying they'd prefer to see players relying on other players rather than machinary.

Oh you read it correctly, but if he can't be paitient for a tactical deployment from the HART he can just click "Instant Action" and get right to the er, action instantly.
We can't always carter to A.D.D inflicted players....

Heh, and that was my reply ;)
I just thought the hostility was a little overboard O_

I give that idea my Buddy Christ :thumbsup: approval.
But first, lets knock some of the major bugs out of the game. Like the Stryker bug. I'm sick of trying to lock onto a MAX thats too chicken to pop out from behind a destroyed wall turret.

sound like a great idea, have live video feed in the cc room of the base + of large areas around the facils showing the action.
+
a large map in the sanc showing the hotspots and live feed of it
Good idea

HELL YEAH. i have always liked the long hart wait, it gave alot of social aspect in the game, either waiting for the hart, or looking for a squad that had transport. Ah those were the days i wish we could have launch week all over again but with all the new stuff.

Lag, but would be pretty kool.
