Armor, and Players

Okay, my brother, ALuth, posted something the lines of this a while ago under the title of "Armor and Ghosts", but he focused on the Ghost situation of it.

I see a lot of people running around at full speed with armor. And that's where the problem starts. When you ask a mod for futuristic type weapons, they say this..

"Cross Fire is a modern Free2Play FPS game. No such weapons will be admitted to the devs."

Now, unless they recently came out with some god like armor, which would still be top secret so yeah, then armor should decrease movement speed, right? According to Cross Fire, no. Armor apparently weights absolutely nothing, and can take an extra 3 shots from the NATO 7.62 round(Which is armor piercing, by the way).

So this is my suggestion... Make it so armor actually lowers the speed of the player with it. This would help to keep the reputation of Cross Fire as a "Modern Free2Play FPS game." As it is they get to take a full extra barrage of shots and walk away with only minimal damage, and still have full running speed.

And for ghosts, I understand moving slower isn't always an option, so I'm adding another thing.

Different levels of armor. Now, don't take this wrong way but, Combat Arms has a better armor system than that of Cross Fire(And to those trolls out there, don't go telling me to just go play Combat Arms, because the armor system is the only thing I like about it).

They have several levels of armor, each one reducing speeds by a certain level. There is actually one armor which lowers your protection, but increases the over all speed of the player(Which is my personal favorite armor). I'm suggesting something like this. That way the Ghost Mode players on the Ghost team can get something along the lines of a Recon styled armor. Decreasing speed by maybe, 5%, and giving them maybe 30-50 AP. And then you could have the Heavy Armor. Decreasing movement speed by around 10-15% and giving you 100 AP.

And then in-case that isn't enough, a different armor. Juggernaut Armor. Decreasing movement speed by 25%, but giving you 125 AP(That one is sarcasm, by the way).

Now this wouldn't be all that hard to code when you think about it. The armor doesn't have to change your appearance as most wish it would(I do wish it would, so you can easily tell who has armor, and avoid conflicts with those people if you're low on HP). Simply make it so that those who have the armor equipped lose the previously described amount of movement speed. As for adding the new armors, that could take some time.

Now I know they will be 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 trolls on this thread because they're all the ones with armor, but this to those trolls..

Get off my thread until you can stop being a pitiful little moron who gets an erection out of attempting to make others feel bad on the internet. =)

Okay, I'm done.

    Perhaps I wasn't clear enough.... NO TROLLS!
  • Player : Well thought out response and suggestion

    Mod/GM : No

    Watch this get thown down the drain like all the other great player suggestions. I agree with this, and if possible make it known which players have the armour.

    The problem is that, for them, if they commit to making the game more realistic, people will ask for sniper breath, for fatigue, etc. And if they went even farther to make it realistic, the game wouldnt be fun at all. One shot and your dead? Bullets take time to reach target? Guns Jam!?!?! Women are weaker? (no sexism intended)

    I see your point though, good suggestion. Hopefully they might consider it. Cross your fingers, because they have other major problems over this add on...

    Well I don't care about the sniper breath and the fatigue. All I want is the armor to have some drawbacks. If this gets enough people saying go for this.. I'm suggesting it to SmileGate, the devs of the game.
  • lol good post. makes a lot of sense... that was my reading for the day :)
  • Thats pretty good...they definitely need some different kinds of armor, what they have now (especially appearance) doesnt work very well

    I've seen the BEST of suggestions get thrown in the trash.

    The only suggestion i've seen g4 accept was the multikill icons next to the player names.

    AND THIS WAS SUGGESTED IN nov. 09!

    If you want something good to go through you need to suggest it here, get it thumbs up from a lot of people. Then you need to suggest it to SmileGate so that they can review it, and if they decide to, begin work on it.
  • well written, and I agree with the suggestion.
  • Perhaps I wasn't clear enough.... NO TROLLS!

    i wasn't trolling, i was just making a innocent joke, no sarcasm there, ya know?
    also, my add to the post is there too "showing" who uses armor by showing differences between different armors, so please, judge yourself before considering someone a troll :rolleyes:

    Actually, it was troll post. You're making a completely absurd suggestion on a thread which is supposed to be serious.

    Troll humor isn't needed on a serious thread. Now, GTFO.
  • This thread basically is against purchasable buffs and is approving purchasable buffs as long as they come in with a debuff, for balance.

    This is a good concept.
  • I think most the people that want the armor changed, are the one's that
    cannot afford the armor.

    Armor is a perk of having zp, be it whatever way you earned it.

    It's our time and money spent on what we want,

    To change it because someone wants repercussions to the armor is
    not good sportsmanship.

    I constantly get complaints for my weapons I have bought with zp
    or won with crates bought with zp or other ways.
    and quite frankly it gets old to hear the complaining.

    Gaining advantages by spending money, thats not good sportmanship.

    Apparently you're so moronic that you didn't understand the "Modern" part of the description of "Free2Play modern FPS game."

    They claim to be running a game that's as modern as they can make it but Combat Arms has it so that the armor hinders something, where as this game has nothing.

    That makes Combat Arms more realistic than this. And how is it bad sportsmanship? I'm suggesting a way to make the game more realistic is what they claim to be running.

    You're the second troll attempt on this thread. Do not knock down my ideas unless you can propose a valid argument.

    sports·man·ship   
    [spawrts-muhn-ship, spohrts-] Show IPA
    –noun
    1.
    the character, practice, or skill of a sportsman.
    2.
    sportsmanlike conduct, as fairness, courtesy, being a cheerful loser, etc.

    How is spending money to buy things which make you APPEAR to be a better player involved in that?
  • Agree with this idea. This game isn't meant to allow players to buy themselves an advantage. Any item that has a huge advantage should also have a huge disadvantage.
  • Now lay back and watch this idea never become reality.

    Even though everyone agrees and OP has been completly reasonable and has shown some arguments to all those haters.

    Nice name calling.
    Please Respect my Opinion as I would yours.
    forum posts are expected to be debated that does not mean trolling
    please get a grip You stated your opinion, I stated mine.
    simple as that.
  • i acctually like this idea, would make sense and the diff lvls of armour would be nice 1 have. but it sounds like alot of effort on z8's part so it probly wont happen :(
  • make missions count in clan wars

    I actually like that idea but it is another topic

    I also think it would be fair for different levels of armor

    How about this idea for those without armor making more xp
    than those with?

    You are equally moronic. In case you didn't read the first post, the one that contains the whole idea of this thread, it says it's the only thing about Combat Arms that I like. So get the fck out, you moronic little failtroll.
