New Equip Idea - Page 2

While I loved tribes, it is a different style of play than planetside. Where Tribes had the keep-moveing feal to it, Planetside has more of a jog-and-stop style. Jets would screw up the style too much to be implemented in this game.

I wouldn't mind seeing MMO Tribes though.... As long as it's a different game.

i think its a good idea, but the last thing we need is more shit for people to bitch about being unbalanced. The Devs should focus of balancing EVERYTHING out and fixing all the bugs and shit before they even THINK about adding new shit, or making a new expansion, or anything like that. Just my opinion

I came up with this idea, while flying around my vanu max, just exploring stuff. I really don't see how a common pool armor could be unbalancing. Not everyone would cert it (heck, how many people cert reinforced). Just limit it in some way, so that it is not over powering, maybe make it hold the same as basic armor with only 50 points of armor. I mean, we have all these new ideas for vehicles and weapons, lets see some love on the armor side.

And yes, it would change the way the game is played. But then again, so has loadstar and flails and routers. I guess, everytime something is added, the game changes.

Anyway, you don't have anything to fear, the speed at which new things are added to this games, makes glaciers look quick. And the chance of a Dev taking an idea from a public forum, then implementing it? Hmm, I think snowballs in hades have a better chance.

I can understand why the developers don't run around to every website and pull ideas. Then you'd have morons running around saying "OMG look at my 1337 idea!" and spamming it up over whatever chat channel they have.

If anything, Zombieside has awesome ideas that could probably do a lot to help. I've given up using the Wishlist idea because everyone and their mom has an idea, and by the time you get a reply, it's fifty pages down because seven million people post there.

I've tried limiting my ideas to here, because (I see you SporkfirePS) there's some quality people here with intelligence that know how to reply, and then only the occasional flamer.
