Re: Suggestions on a few multiplayer changes for R

In Response To: Re: Suggestions on a few multiplayer changes for R (DarkSky Forever)


: and replace it with what? It works fine the way it is now. If two people
: sword each other at the same time, you deflect one another. Just like real
: swords.

: I think it is fine the way it is now. It works great at short-medium range,
: and starts to diminish at longer ranges. It isn't meant to be a long range
: weapon.

: Same thing as above. It works at short to medium ranges, and accuracy
: diminishes at longer ranges.

: Reasoning? It works and it isn't broken in Halo 3.

: Why? The missile pod is meant for vehicles, not personnel. It doesn't need a
: larger blast radius. Neither does the rocket. It is easy enough to get
: kills with it.

: I agree with this. If you aren't host, it is nearly impossible to kill
: someone who is jumping.

: Perhaps.

: I'm not sure what you meant here. You can pick spawn locations in forge mode.
: The game decides where you spawn a person based on a weighted system,
: where the threat is the lowest.

: I can see game play issues being the reason here, but it is a custom game, so
: I agree.

: Frame rates. Flame effects take a lot of resources I'm sure, so they limit
: those in multiplayer. Sure, it works fine with one person, but you have to
: remember that you can play 4-player split screen on one system, and the
: game needs to draw those effects for every person.

I publicly pondered a little while back that maybe Bungie would give out flaming helmets now in place of recon and someone (don't remember, sorry) said they found out in the beta that having more than a few people with flames on a map at a time made things slow down quite a bit. If they come up with a more efficient fire algorithm or it runs on more powerful hardware they might include more of it but I'm not sure of the canon status of the fire grenades, although it's multiplayer so who really cares?

You cannot fall off the floor.
