Implant Ideas

Ok since people seem to think that all implants are currently worthless. (I tend to disagree only personal shield is totaly worthless, oh yes drian me on stamina so i'm not only etting pounded but now am limping along, great plan. I submit the following.

1. Rek Implant:Self Explanitory

2. Jump Jet Implant: Simulates the Vanu Max ability for Infantry.

3. Recoild Compensators: Reduces the reticle blur for weapons fire repeatedly maybe this whould get the chaiugun to where it should be. Because on the one hand, yes a chaingun should be ale to run full cyclic, no a human whouldnt be able to hold it while it's doing this ad still hit the broadside of a barn.

4. Command and control Interface. Give you a larget view of the radar map over a given area around you highlighting enemy and friendly vehicles and max's as are visible to your squadmates and motion sensors etc. Also coupled with a CR of 1 allows you to
assign individual waypooint sto squad members.

5. Drone implant: Produces a small unarmed survelance drone that can fly over and scout enemy movement to a given distance. Low armor and HP user is vulnerable while using. (basicly a slower moving form of the phoenix missile with no nifty offensive capabilities.

Edit: Hey i actualy added stuff.
5. Blur implat: Creates many ghost images of infiltrators running, good for when you have to haul butt or just want to freak out the enemy.

6. Jammer emplant, same as gernade short radius, doesnt affect self.

LOL, that blur implant would fucking own at freaking non darklighters out!

Ok I've wanted this forever and have thought about it alot. Basically a clone. Its like a hologram it shadows your every movement but it stands(or crouches) to your right a few feet. This would be extremely useful for infils, snipers, hell everyone. Sniping, you would be set up on a hill and the enemy would see 2 snipers, giving you a 50/50 shot of getting picked for counter-sniping. Infil, gives you a decoy for getting out of places. General assault, freak out the enemy, one full squad automatically becomes 2. Now ofcourse we come to the limitations. It would act like dlight, dont move and it drains at same rate as replenish, but if you move it drains faster. If you shoot, it shoots but it doesn't damage ofcourse! :P. It would be very easily figured out though, I mean who could actually fire at the exact same time as one of your real teammates and walk the same? And If your decoy gets shot it is deactivated and gives a 15 seconds reactivation time like what would happen if it were jammered.

That would be awsome!

Errr what are you talking about? Do you mean NPCS? this whould just be a controlled avatar, like the phoenix missile.

The only problem i see with the duplicate implant is people are just gonna learn to shoot the guy on the left. :P but it's not a bad idea other then that, save maybe creating lag. I kinda miss the tribes decoys save they were used like miny mines.

Duke nukum 3d? how bout a holographic image left in one place, as opposed to following you around. Leave it at CC and hear someone shoot it

telling you right away they are at CC

Sweet jumping jehosephat yeehaw! I would love that! I could own that stupid Darklighter then! He sees me, I sprint off, place that implant while I run, hide a bit, wait for the shooting to stop and slaughter him. It would also be good for snipers and the like.
I like all the ideas so far except the Unmaned patrol craft, it just doesn't appeal to me, not sure why, but I would love it if any remotley interesting implants got into the game.

How about an implant that let you see through walls for about 15 seconds at a time? I hate running through a door then get ripped a new one by some nub with a pistol that was AFK next to the damn door and just came back

Wall hack? - need I say anymore?

I agree that this whould be the ideal thing to set up, but ultimatly disagree that this whould be a good iplant function, in my mind nothing done with implants should be permanent. Perhapse if the decoy reduced stamina while ative at a rate similar to darklight. A morepermanent sort of decoy should be able to be done with the ACE or perhapse some special add prereq for infiltrators, sort of a cover ops skill.

Breast Implants.

Female specific.

When an enemy looks at you, their CoF inflates to 2 times the size

Smaug · 2003-06-23, 02:19 AM

yeah also with the decoy a long time ago I thought about making it a mode with the ace. It would deploy and look like a boomer and then would project a hologram up from it. You could destroy it just like a boomer.

I never thought of that... Just look at the guy on the left and kill him... hehe. So maybe the decoy would switch sides, every time you use it.

Would this be holographically done?

Arakiel · 2003-06-23, 02:22 AM

Honestly, stuff like implants that spawn decoys and such isn't ever going to make it in-game - they don't want to implement hitboxes because it's too much to track, everyone spawning entirely new entities to track is pretty much out of the question.

Atlas: too exploitable, I think. Interesting idea, though.

Kaikou: would probably be more effective if it just made them drop their weapon

Smaug · 2003-06-23, 02:54 AM

Yeah I know.... everything makes lag, lag, lag. Will snipers ever get one shot head kills? Nope, area specific damage makes lag... lag lag lag. But hey I can dream this shit up can't I? Well I can, and as long as I can dream it I'll post it so that just incase a dev ever comes here(fat chance in hell) he just might see it, and then like it, and then pay me 500 dollars and then implement it. Seriously though I need the cash... just donate it to me and I'll stop making stupid posts.
