So after playing the game a little (still only bots because I'm not at my gaming-rig) I found some things I would like to see in Xonotic. I will add suggestions over time as I continue playing Xonotic online and get some more indepth look on the game. Most of my suggestions will probably be "important" for duel as it is the most important gamemode for me, but they could probably help other modes too.
1. Set fixed Item Names
I know that there allready is a poll about weapons so I won't post my toughts about them here but I think we should add some fixed names for Armor and Health aswell as for the Powerups like this they could also be shown on the hud when picked up, this could help newcomers to learn what they actually picked up. They should be kind of unique but should not be too missleading. My sugestion would be:
Armors:
-Body Armor (100AP)
-Chest Armor (50AP)
-Helmet (25AP)
-Shards (5AP)
Health:
-Mega Health or Ultra Health (100HP)
-Big Health-Box or -Pack (50HP)
-First Aid Box or Pack (25HP)
-Adrenaline Shot (5HP)
Power Ups:
-Stenght should be renamed to something like Quad Damage or Damage Amplifier (I think this was discussed on a other topic)
2. Spawn Indicators
I don't know if in Xonotic there is a warm-up mode cuz I did not play it online yet, but if there is it is the perfect time for newbs to learn maps and strategies on them and learning the spawns it a big part of getting to know a map, so I would suggest to add default spawn indicators on all maps (they could be glowing Xonotic-Logos or Transparent Playermodels or whatever). Especially in duel knowing the spawnpoints is crucial for controling the situation on the map.
3. Remove the free kill when a player gets pushed into the space
It was like this in Nexuiz and it will be the same in Xonotic if it does not get changed: I start raging every time I get pushed into the space (we had a lot of space in Nexuiz I hope this will change in Xonotic) by my opponet and he gets a free kill for doing nothing and landing a lucky bounce on me. Please! Please, please remove the kill and instead make the pushed player loose a point! Thank you!
That's it for the moment
Peace
