: Well I was more thinking along the lines if you wanted to treated the grenade
: slots as a more generic 'throwable, consumable device' and have several
: different types, of which you choose a maximum of two. Instead of ones
: that just explode in slightly different ways and do damage, there could be
: ones that have EMP or gravity effects, or generate a temporary, stationary
: shield to block damage instead of dealing it.

: Sort of like, nerfed Equipment type things, that you can carry two and are
: more readily available than equipment was, so you don't horde it as much.

: Pie in the sky stuff. :P

I like the idea, but I would at least want to be able to have 3, probably 4 or 5, and I'm not sure about how it would limit grenade choice. I'm pretty fine as long as I can have plasma grenades, but some people really value the different types and make use of them, and like having more than one type. It looks like that would be doable, but then you wouldn't be able to use any of these other small consumable devices-- well, you would, but you'd have to swap out some grenades if you're carrying both types. I'm having a hard time thinking of why that's bad besides the fact some people just won't like it, but I'm not sure how you'd do it-- we're almost out of buttons, especially if you're building on what SonGoharotto has put forth.

: I suspect that sprint having a constantly varying speed and having an
: associated melee-damage modifier will make it feel inconsistent in practice.

I don't think the speed would mess with people that much, but they'd take a while to get used to the added melee strength.

You cannot fall off the floor.
