Matrix, my point was infinitely more important than you bawwing about being called hacker =[
And yet, you won't actually respond to other points or think of a better solution. Banning people is good and all, but they'll just play on guest accounts or ban-jump.
KentyBK, please tell me if you felt you had an enlightening discussion and had fun =P
I felt I had an enlightening discussion and had fun =P
Sometimes I get the feeling you people think I do this to vent my INTERWEBS-RAEG. If there were any discussions that are actually interesting, I wouldn't need to just rant on this thread only.
I myself have been thinking on the topic of some kind of battle/combat on Exit Path, and after reading the posts here, I agree with the side that says that battle would be bad, but I have a suggesstion. If you want to battle, you should make TWO versions of Exit Path, one like the normal Exit Path, and one with battle.
The battle could compose of using flair to hit/kill the other players/AI (like the gun flair that actually shoots), or have something where people only jump on each other, like Mario.
PVP in Exit Path is a bad idea period. This ain't Mario Kart you know.
Making TWO versions is an even worse idea for more than one reason.
These battles could take place in a closed place, like an arena, where the only goal is to kill people.
So basically, you want to completely change how the game is played? o.0
No.Just no. The only additions that the game needs, are additions to it's racing gameplay (like actually making Double Jumping a normal game feature).
I agree. Those additions would be COOL, but the flame throwers might be a problem because our faceless players do not have health bars, and flame throwers cause hurt over time, unless you would be killed instantly. The guns would, unfortunately, be exactly like the lasers, but variation is good. You could have them placed like the shooting spikes if you wanted.
1.Guest_Troll notices EP2 has guns.
2.Guest_Troll notices he can kill people with those guns
3.Guest_Troll waits at the end of a narrow hallway/gun spawnpoint
4.Guest_Troll shoots everyone instead of racing.
5.Problem?
None of you realise the same people you complained about before, will just use those features to piss people off. Not to mention adding weapons feels like even more pointless bloat.
I heard on John's site that he will be adding ESCELATORS. Yes, ESCELATORS.
Call me crazy, but I don't like that idea. Escalators aren't exactly the first thing I think of, when I think of speed.
Of course, if you use the "slowness" of escalators for level design, I can see some interesting possibilities.
As for enemies, I tend towards no, simply because I see them working strange in Multiplayer races. And if they don't have AI, they are just jumping hazards, which defeats the point of them being enemies (you could use axes instead).
