Critters

Ravenblade · 2003-09-03, 06:35 PM

I think they really should have Critters and have like a 1-point cert that lets you be able to ride them. They could have continent specific critters, and 2-3 critters that can be found on each continent. It think it would be really cool to come across some random animal, run up to it, press G, and hop on its back. THey should have one of the critters be able to carry 2 to 3 people on its back, like some elephant-like critter. Anyone else think this would be cool?

Good idea! We could make it like Star Wars and ride ewoks!!!

Ph3ar teh bunny riders of doom...

Muahahah, we could all get elephant critters and ride across the continent like hannibal!!! That cert would be awesome, even though it would be hard to put critters in the game, if they did I would want that cert badly.

I can't believe your serious..........

To be serious for a second, it will never happen. An online massive FPS isnt ready to accept NPC path coding. And Planetside is strictly PvP with no NPC interaction. I'd like to keep it that way.

You see it always happens someone starts a cool idea and ruins them by saying something like lets ride the back of freakin critters for no apparent reason at all.

I, personally...think that would ruin the game - this is Planetside not EverQuest

How does a critter keep up with even an ANT? I can't see it working, if you want horses and various creatures there's games catering for it already

Plus you'd stick out a mile, how would you attack a base on one of those?

.........Erm

If you read earlier my post on why critters wouldn't work you would see that I know it proably won't happen. Needs a separate AI server to talk to the other server they have. Alot of other things I said but I don't want to type them all... again.... But then again it wouldn't be impossible.

I don't care if we all get slaughtered. i would proabably have my trooops go at the people with medieval bows and arrows and swords if this game had any. Would be fun, don't care if it's useful or not.

The reason is, it would be fun

Oh and I know what I'm talking out, I'm ranking commander and have read way to many threads on this site

That or trample us with his herd of critters and shoot us with his bow and arrows.

Yeah that's a good idea even though it'll never happen.

Xxzard · 2003-09-03, 07:27 PM

that definatly sounds like star wars galaxies because that is kind of what you do in it. now all it needs is dancing wookies.

I'm saying a commander because I've replayed to alot of treads and it says I'm a commander because I have replayed to 225+ threads, and read a whole bunch of them. I know it won't happen but still it's just an idea... you don't have to like it. I know more then you about this kind of stuff because I've been around longer on this sight, not saying I'm better then you though. So yes, I know critters won't happen, and can we just please just stop talkign about this topic?
