hack tools & binoculars

[Inchenzo]

I was thinking, and have 2 simple nice not imbalancing idea's..

1) I think hacknet tools should be shown on your arm if you have one in your quickbelt

2) binoculars, yes even with the 500 meter clipping i think we should have binoulars ingame, so we can spy on people :)

wot you guys think ?

[[D]est]

nice ideas, but im 99% sure KK wont put those in NC :o

we can always try :angel:

[Bugs Gunny]

inchenzo, seriously, NOBODY wants to see the gm's skinnydipping between those dragonflies.

[Original monk]

binoculars, sunglasses, infrared/motiondetectors, hacktools shown at youre arm, maybe even cannons shown at youre arm (like a wb has) :P for the true cyborg !

i wanem all :D

then VOTE damn you !!

[Original monk]

then VOTE damn you !!

... i did but you cant see who voted on what option :) (voted 1 & 2 btw, heck i like most new items that come ingame)

[l8m0n]

Would love it but like most brainports, never going to happen ;)

[[D]est]

its the same like the sigarets idea that was when nc2 still needed to be released, they said ''due so many ppl wanted sigarets', we will add it in nc2''

Ever seen somebody with a sigaret? or sunglasses :rolleyes: ?

[Inchenzo]

i really want the binoculars ingame, it wouldn't be that hard to implement, it would just be a new model with a zoom option, that's it.. kinda like a SH without the firing mode :angel:

[Notorious Fish]

I voted for both but I dont know why. I dont need either of them. I use rifles with scopes. And I dont hack, but then again I might just carry one to look cool. Like my tanks Ion Crossbow.

[naimex]

im on for hacktools showing on arm..

there are scopes... no need for binos

that's just it, these are items that are just cool to have, just like flashlights..

Ya but itd be cooler if your belt actually showed what you have like flashlight is on your waist . sta booster a little booster attached to your belt on your waist. for all the spells you have just ahve one spell shaped thingy on your belt

i voted yes to both, good ideas.

agree about the scopes m8 but what about monks and melee tanks??
i get the idea that either class would be seen with bino's unless there were unsure about duelling someone they seen in the distance :lol:

but then again who wants to mod a cs with a scope???

i think it wouldn't hurt to implement them, gives the spy another role to play

No i think we should just be able to fly so we can fly in see whats up and fly away if we dont like it, and invinciable mode too. So wed be like a fly that cant be squished, only 100000000000 times more annoying....
Im not sure what the point of this was.... Id mode a Rav with a scope.. back on topic now

aye not bad modding a rav with one, they got nice range.
i remember snot eye trying to pick me off with one at j 2
(thanks to kk for my stealth 2)

Ya but then again they will probably fix the range thing on weapons too

[Notorious Fish]

Im surprised to see binoculars beating hack tools... i swear people are real comm..... er bad some times

i want 'em both :) i actually want alot, but.. let's just start with this :angel:

[Freaky Fryd]

You have no idea how many times I've been scouting for a target while sniping,
and had to have my Healing Light with scope out to do it effectively, which
also gives away my location with the swirly...

I'd love some binoculars

[Inchenzo]

so umm, Niddhog, Callash, Odin or Holger (or anyone else) what do i need to do to get these items ingame ?

[Tostino]

I would love to see binoculars in game. If you have a scope on a weapon or binoculars out (and zoomed) then it should up the view distance by 500 (then you would have 2x the distance as normal).

[Morganth]

Yeah, I can see people on the clipping plain with my Holy Heal, hit people on the other side of the zone with my Judge and whilst I am at it, my poke tool allows me to see things flying at max altitude.

:rolleyes:

create the wire mesh models.
texture them
code them ingame
alter player code to have them work
run around in circles screaming cause u cant find a bracket that is fecking up ur compile

thats about it :P

well if they want me to model it, well that shouldnt be a problem, i've got 3d modelling experience.

although i have programming skills, i don't think i should be altering code and decompiling stuff.

i'd just like to know if the KK peeps would consider adding this :)

If you can produce some meshs and textures for it, I bet they are more likely to implement it as they don't have to do all the work. Shame the modifications forums aren't accessable, there was details on there about the poly count of models and the format needed etc.

And stay well away from altering code or decompiling anything NC related, or you won't even be able to see your works if they do implement it.

Duh.. hahaha i know that :) nice of you to say that though :)

Well i'll send a mail to the guys at reakktor this week, ask 'em to see if i make a model for it and texture it, if they'll add it. (and ask 'em what the specs should be offcourse)

And if they don't accept it, make a model of the KK HQ after its been bombed by angry community members :p

i'll make both, one as the binoculars idea, the other as a "what if" situation to give them a headsup ;)


edit/

i added a pic of something i moddeled a loooong time ago (4/5 years ago)

edit 2/

i was a foolish kid back then,.. so don't read the text on the picture mmkay ?

[enigma_b17]

of course u going to have to code....its not going to magically appear on a persons arm :P

[Tostino]

That's not bad at all.

Rare Binoculars which can see through stealth :o

i voted yes to both, good ideas.


give flashlight mods a purpose... make them show a stealthers shadow...

[enigma_b17]

lol yea that would be great, rename them to erm somed weird :)

[Jesterthegreat]

flashlight would be fine... they are made to light the dark, and cast shadows :p

[Morganth]

I thought the science behind the stealth tool that it allowed light to pass through the users body due to the use of a special chemical. If I am correct, then your idea wouldn't work.

[Heavyporker]

well, for one, there's refraction/diffraction. And for another, level 1 to 3 stealthtools aren't 100% effective invisibility.

[Jesterthegreat]

if you wanna get all sciency then make the spies weapons / clothes float... since the chem's injected into the spies body wont effect them.

cos ya know... how it stands currently doesnt work

[Original monk]

And if they don't accept it, make a model of the KK HQ after its been bombed by angry community members :p

thats a nice idea for a new map lol, 2 weeks ago i worked 5 hours on a map that looked like a swampcave .. it started to look real nice, yust had to make some decent textures but euh, i accidentally deleted the map lol, if i hadnt count to 100 first i would of trown my computer out of the window :P

[Heavyporker]

ouch. I know how it is to spend a lot of time modeling something.

[Morganth]

I know. Same as in Sci Fi films when they turn on the "uber Universal Translator" that whatever is talking conveniently mouths the English words along with the translation, rather than mouthing the original words with the translation overlayed which would make more sense.

It would make more sense if Spies had stealth suits, rather than gay wrist watches.

[Hot-Salsa]

do so that you can hit someone with em :p like a mag light...and give em the name Frag Light.... sorry just bored :p

[Heavyporker]

Lol...

Star Trek... everyone speaks english....

AND, conviently, these aliens can just turn to themselves and talk in their alien languages that the so called translator can't understand. :p

It makes you transparent aka no shadows KTHXBYE

it makes you partially transparent hence the blue stuff...

sooo cool idea :p hacktools on arm would look nice.. not that i have a hacker atm but meh ;)

When I imagine a sniper at an OP, I imagine
He moves into position, lays flat down, has his scope up, lines up a target, takes his time ... watches, and understand the targets movement and when he feels his in the zone, wham head shot, dead.

When I played Battlefield 1942 , especially a few of the maps, you pop your head out and wham, you are dead with a head shot. But if it was not accurate then you take some pain.

I am sure my idea here is gonna be flammed a little but

Make rifle - sniper specialists, allow models to lay down. When he lays down his target box reduces to small box. Introduce different type cammo armour, so he can be in a dessert and hard to spot, or in the swamps and hard to spot.

Once he takes a shot, he cannot shoot, or stand for 25 seconds. But with the execption of ppu has the ability for a head shot kill (has to be darn accurate) .... alos cannot stealth ... so if he does get it right he is a hero, he misses he will prbably die ???

[Nidhogg]

I'll pass both of these on. If we can see laserblades on belts I don't see why we can't have hacktools on sleeves (but then again, I'm not a coder). Also, we should be able to replicate the sniper rifle scope in a standalone pair of bins. BTW, a Viz top tip was to save money on expensive binoculars by simply standing closer to the object you wish to view. ;)

With that comment.. it reminds I WANT FREAKING BINOs. I remember a couple of times where i see some one off in the distance but can get a lock, so i move in closer but the time i get close enough to see who it is, they see me and attack....

no to 1 hit kills.

laying down would be good though

[Inchenzo]

Laying down was the second thing i wanted to make a poll for :)

that together with sitting on the ground

[Freaky Fryd]

I'd agree with laying down, if it was optional...
