Upgrades as a result of promotion...

MM | Hollywood · 07-26-2005, 09:44 PM

Instead of a lame shotgun upgrade for the engineer, maybe carrying more or different mines or better wrench would be more useful as you advance in rank.

I was thinking something which furthered the specialization of the kit would've been better for each. Just upgrading the primary weapon seems pretty lame.

Anyone have any other "good" ideas? Maybe an upgraded anti-tank weapon?

How about a laser designator that brings down 3 multi terawatt laser beams from a satelite in space while simultaniously launching all the worlds ICBMs at the set location.

Its fine how it is. The unlocks are meant to be alternatives. Not replacements.

Dude, you just made me want to go play generals, and I think the specialization of the classes would be cool, but they would have to do it while keeping balence in mind.

Reaper - not very opened minded for a wish list. -10 pts for TKing my idea.

I think we would all like to see additions that have balance. I don't think an engineer who can carry a couple of extra mines or has a better wrench is going to throw things out of whack. You don't play engineer if you want to run around and shoot things with a shotgun IMO - you want to fix things and lay AT mines, so why not enhance those aspects of game play for the guy playing that kit? Same goes for all the kits. Who wants to shoot people? The Sniper: give him a better rifle or more claymores, Assault - give him a better gun (oh they do that already) or nade launcher. Spec Ops more/better C4...MEdic - faster healing/more body armor, AT - better AT weapon/body armor.

Come on guys, it took me five seconds to figure some of these things out, I know you can think of some good stuff - it's not that complicated, but could be a lot of fun if you were truly able to enhance ur kit and not just ur gun.

I like it. The game would be more personalized. You get like three choices that can be upgraded for each kit but you only get to pick one at each new rank.

That would be very neat!

maybe dice will make it happen in the expansion pack. the webiste said it has some new upgrades and weapons so maybe its similiar to what you want.

Didn't I already post this? :P

I think the sniper should carry C4 as they do in real life.

How about the snipers .50cal acts like a .50cal round speed and damage.

Another cool idea might be dynamic vehicles. As your rank gets better you can unlock special features on the vehicle. Like maybe a back hatch for the apc that you can open up and let the people in the back fire their own guns and reapir

Heh it would be like the ground blackhawk...unfair but still destroyable
