Quote: Depends on what regard you ask me - as something id try out if it got made? Sure, could be fun. As something I would want in the core game and be willing to code? No, i don't think it fits the core game.In the end of the day, Xonotic is opensource, so once I can invest some time get get firm with QuakeC/C/C++, which I was planning for C/C++ anyways, I could code it myself, right?
Quote:That being said, a classes thing or limited weapon arsenal can be a mod of course, I wouldn't mind but also wouldn't really care. I'm not usually against stuff but this is definitely a thing I wouldn't want to have in the core gameplay. If anyone wants optional restrictions client-side, fine, if she/he codes it, but I wouldn't really see the point.Maybe the point would be to make available gameplay styles more diverse, while not using a class system (which I wasn't proposing). This could be quite interesting actually, I have never seen anything like that in a FPS.
By the way: Is there any "official" summary of poll results regarding game features? If not, it might be helpful to open a thread on that. Like "crowdsourcing" poll result assessment, by having everyone who contributes to the "assessment" thread post the result of closed polls in a certain format, e.g.:
thread link: url
approx. date: e.g. 7/11
Poll Question: Jump 200 metres high and explode when hitting floor?
Poll result: disapproved
additional comments: none
This thread could be refined over time and rechecked by the community for accuracy. Comments that are misplaced (because they do not summarize a poll), would have to be relocated by an administrator from time to time to a separate thread ("comments on summary threads"). Might be quite useful to keep track of ideas, while keeping it simple, don't you think?
