A thought to ponder

Intruder · 2003-06-23, 07:34 PM

Was chatting with some of my PS buddys last night and came up with a great idea (though I doubt it would be ever added, but I thought I would share it with you)

New class available!

TV reporter.

New vehicle!

2 man Vtol (no weapons)

New addition to the game!

TV sets in Hart building.

how good would it be to log on, head to the nearest TV and check out where the action is, comming live to you, with a live feed.
Or flick the channel and check out what has happened in the last 24 hours.
Or maybe hack into an enemy satelite and get the feed from the enemy

Now before anyone goes and trys to tear apart the idea becuse of all the exploits that could be used, this is just sharing with you all an idea that cropped up that would be cool, but will never happen (maybe it belongs in the Fan Fic section

)

Feel free to reply and add to the idea, but no flames plz

1. Lagarific
2. Why don't you implement "Look! I'm a huge bullseye!" instead?
3. This leads to movie star elitists, which tick me off.
4. This leads to movie star elitist neighborhoods. "Look, we're going Forserollywood!

Funny idea, nothing above is a flame, I know it won't get implemented though.

What do the real reporters do in real life when they get shot...

Either get a great pic of it before they die, or run away!

That doesn't sound like very much fun. What if everybody got griefpoints when shooting TV crew. They couldn't carry weapons, but if they started poking around place you don't whant them to see, just off them and pay the price.
Just a thought to ponder, this will never be added.

. maybe the when u press the afterburner button the craft goes super fast so it can escape.

just out of curiosity, if you had 4 cameras and only one TV between them, how would it work, could you channel the TV?

New Class!

Video editing

You get to sit in a room at sanc and edit the feeds, so that teh general populace gets to see the best of the shots, or of course you could be like IRL and be currupted by another side and only show limited information
