[T:V] Idea... for start of matches etc.

ragingbunny · Jun 21, 2003

Instead of spawning and standing in a spot like in t1 and t2, what about a dropship, everyone is in the dropship at the start, doors open and u fly out into the main base, and suit up and begin the match, could be a cool addition. any ideas?

This is Tribes, not PlanetSide.

I think we should bust out of the ground like zombies

I could see that becomming a nightmare in pubs.

Seriously though, people are always talking about how they hate random factors like lightning a shit, so why not carry the same idea over with spawns? :shrug:

That would be okay in tournament mode, but otherwise...

How would this work exactly?

TR2 works like this, you drop out of chutes into the field. It was always one of my favorite parts of the games. For some reason it just seems a lot cooler and more exciting to drop down a chute into the arena.

It would be cool for the "sports arena" themed maps to have a bunch of drop chutes for the beginning of matches that then get pulled up by ropes after the first spawns. Just to add to the atmosphere and make the game start off with more of a bang since you would start at higher ground.

You select from offensive or defensive spawn spheres or something.

Oh, that'd be fine. I was thinking more like specific spawn points.

I think Thrax or somebody else already said they liked the idea of spawn spheres..... as do I.

choosing spawn spheres sort of like choosing equipment for dueling sounds good.
