if you don't notice an extremely large Male in a Blue armor that full of light balls and carrying a big pack. then you deserve to get pwned with the bomb.

[AntnEEEEE]

I think Suicide bombers is a bad idea. everyone will put explosives on a car a jet into a bunch of guys and blowup it will dumb and you shouldnt be able to put a bomb on your self unless it makes you unarmed or with a crapy pistol

And if said jackass is camping around the corner of a building or in a recessed doorway hiding until your squad comes up?

[Agent-Blazin]

It would make it more tactical, having to move up slower and think more sbout your tactics, if you know theres a CHANCE someone will be ready to die to take out your squad.

[Felix12g]

So a game based on speed and rapid movement, let alone gameplay, is supposed to slow people down to a crawl so they have to check every single doorway for an idiot who can't aim worth shit and needs to resort to using himself as a guided bomb (I won't say smart) just to achieve a kill or two.

Yeah, that's REALLY a good idea.

[Twilight]

Maybe if there was a higher penalty for death or at least suicide, for instance you experience some kind of HUGELY extended respawn time or even you get weapon penalties afterward.

Even nerfing the "suicide bomb" as in making it less effective i.e. less damage, less range, instead of applying penalties

These might balance out and maybe make the game a little more tactical.

Though they are possible solutions, I myself am not in favour of Suicide bombing, Huxley is very much grounded on SURVIVAL!

There was no fanatacism or extreme patriotism mentioned in the Huxley story...I.E. many of the surviving breeds of Humans want their race to prosper, however theyre not willing to go as far as "By taking down a few of these inevitably replaceable troops I am doing service to my race and helping in its survival"

The other thing being, puhhh so what if you can click and blow your brains everywhere, I can get a headshot from the other side of the map!

Suicide in video games, or in real life for that matter, is a retarded concept.

[Felix12g]

Funny you should say that since self sacrifice is a popular concept in drama. Let alone a selling point for differnt games that use it in their cutscenes while protecting others. Not to speak of literary uses of the suicidal tendencies. But yeah, if you're a devout religious person i can see how it'd seem retarded.

WTF

You can SEE why you would find that retarted? Of course it retarted u know why its retaraded because gay terrorists want to ruin the fun.


Now we can't even carry water on planes or laptops.
No knifes on planes.
You have to watch out for massive killings
You have to watch out for crowdred places.
You have to watch out for you water supply/Nucular power plants
Terrorists are gay and so is suicide bombings its no argument.

[Felix12g]

Actually it has more to do with the teachings of your religion (Of course some it isn't a bad thing) telling you that suicide is bad starting from an early age. Constant reinforcement of suicide as a negative action can still persist even though the actual acts are glorified. "Soldier saves squad by throwing himself on a grenade" That's suicide, you just jumped on a grenade, are you damned to some hell? Granted that's different than jumping off of a building, but the act is the same. "Soldier manually detonates bomb on bridge holding off advancing enemy for friendly forces to retreat" Another suicide. Another glorified action.

[CTU24]

First off I did not meant to attack you Felix I know you did not accuse me just saying it a head of time. I would also like to say the suicide they are talking about on this thread is the attacking suicide not the save somone suicide. Strapping a bomb on you and running saying "Allah!" and killing 15-or more civilians is not a heroric act what so ever. That is not even religion thats fanticsism if tahts even a word. Fanatics brainwash Muslims into believing shit that is not true. So no that is not religion.



And the suicide your talking about will be able in the game.

For example, Your partner and you are trapped and surrounded. The only chance of one of you escaping is for one of you to be a decoy and get killed while the other excapes. That is not even religion but I get what your saying.

[Murvel]

Guys.. tone it down a notch. I don't want any fights in the threads. If you have something to say to each other then use the PM function. Stick to the topic.

[Crot]

i say no to it cause its just a lame tactic if i saw anyone running at me i'd aim for their head

thats me i've been knifed crowbarred and naded like that to many times to no thave learned

and last night alll these people that grav gun the nade and run into you and kill you but they live made me against most explosives


the car bomb though is a good idea because it could be useful say to blow a hole in the side of something or something like that

plus its sorta fun to watch cars explode


of course i'm talking in a gaming sense

i guess you could just huck more nades if you wanna take them down with you

[Mjolnir]

suiciding or any form of killing yourself to:
a) take out other players
or
b) to deny other players XP

is lame in terms of gameplay.
It is penalized in UT by reducing your score. The only acceptable penalty i can think of in huxley for suiciding would be an xp reduction to that of about one kill. also you should not get any xp for kills after you are dead. so if you suicide with a rocketlauncher and that just happens to take out 2-3 soldiers then you get an xp penalty for suiciding, and no xp for the kills.

[brycenation]

duno about that like, but if you get to drive the massive planes in this screenshot ...

then that would be good for two reasons. First of all . you could blow yoursef up in the enemys base like you wanted and i would be happy casue driving one of them looks BANGING

[Maki-Maki]

No way dude, Suicide bombers will just ruin the game, plus bring up contriversial issues =/. *Cough* Felix and CTU *Cough*

[randin]

I suppose that suicide bombers brings up a lot of issues, both morally and gameplay wise.

Morally, its the way of the terrorist vs the way of the samurai. Terrorist will do what is necessary to cause the most destruction, while samurai's would rather kill themselves than die withou
