Road Kill! ;)

Red Beard · 2012-06-08, 03:15 AM

I am watching the live feed from day one and noticed there wasn't any sound that happened when a max was run down. I think it would be worth while to make some sound effects specifically for that, as I think it it's one of those 'planetside moments' that would be exponentially better with a 'crash, crash, crumple, crumple' when running over a Max, and a couple 'kerthump, kerthump's when running over softies, lol.

I suspect it wouldn't take a ton of time and would be well worth the effort in terms of game play...Those noises would be the lightning rod for the building anticipation you feel as you'e chasing down some helpless pedestrians!

Also, while we're on the subject of road kill; add the Sunderer's 'teeth' from PS1 back in as a cosmetic option in the store!

It was actually a liberator I think... but it was awesoooome x infinity!

Yeah sound is needed, otherwise that mag that just ran down bob will be coming for me next more silent than an infiltrator.

I think the Sunderer teeth should NOT be cosmetic, it needs to be a RAMMING MOD!!!

I hope we don't get the PS1 run over nerf for PS2. I used to love mowing down troops in PS1 until the nerf made you slow down on impact with a player. You generally only got one mow down kill... yet still, I managed to murder entire squads with a wraith, unarmed ATV. For the record, 2 roadkills, then you had to get another / repair. Took so much damage on it... I loved it all!

I didn't know they nerfed it...that's pretty lame; they shoud have maybe just nerfed the smaller vehicles and the rest just make sure they had loud engines so it was your own fault for playing dubstep instead of in game music!

Sorry, sorry...I know; there was no Dubstep back then...lol

How about a nice crunching sound when you run over someone with the prowler or vanguard.

That's what I mean; something that grabs your attention a little bit...Something that satisfies those with road rage; something that makes the faint of heart want to crawl into a corner, hug their knees and shudder, lol.

Haha I'm feeling ya, but I have no clue what sound a magrider would make running over someone.

It could still have one thud when the softy hits the hood ornament, and then another when he hits the ground...As for the max, there's probably not enough clearance for it to fit underneath, so it would just get garbled/crumpled under there like when you swat a mosquito and then roll it away from the impact zone.
