So that its actually pitch black in alot of places you would like to
go. More flashlights and flashlight mods would be used, and we
could perhaps get a darkvision implant, or a darkvision helmet or
helmet mod if armor mods comes into play.

Completely agree Rade, in a wider sense generally the game has to make itself grittier and darker, what ever happend to sections such as Pepper Park 3, where it is evident the underworld is present, lets see it throughout NC, maybe its in DOY?

YES!!


Imagine a fight in the pitch black, with only flashlight mods to guide your shots.

*drools*

I think that there should be some OPs underground.... then have them in pitch black. Rocking. :D

that's not nice. Actually, PPU's would be good for that. Something they're meant to do.

the point.

At the halloween event i turned my gamma right down... and switched my flashlight on it is really effective and really works:)

Im all for the idea

Nice idea, heard it suggested for for the chaos caves origionally which would rock and give a reason for the flashlight to be in my speedgun and judge.

Oh and that weird eye piece on spy pa could be infra red that would be cool too.

DaRKER?! if you want it darker just mess with the contrast on your F11 .

mine is really dark and i dont see how i could get it any darker, also, even if they make it darker people can just F11 to make it lighter, so its just aswell you do it yourself :)

dont miss the point rade ...just dont like the idea of having to use a flashlight...it has to be equiped which means u cant have a weapon and see....for u ppl with guns its no problem since u can always just mod a flashlight onto your weapons ....

agree with you mc

I hate a dark screen, I want to see what I am doing and where I am going, and have my hands full changing weapon/spells and eating PSI Boosters, medkits etc

I really don't want to have to also need to use a freakin torch thank you very much

The point is to have a few dungeons that are really dark, not the
entire neocron. Just so that we would get a few dungeonish
places that really feels that way. Also if you are in a team you
wouldnt necesarily need a flashlight yourself. I think it would add
a nice new dimension to the game. I hate when its too dark as
much as the next guy but I still think it would be damn neat to go
into some cave and having to use a flashlight and getting all
jumpy and stuff. Also as I said, some darkvision
gogles/imps/mods would be nice.

Ah ok I get your point Rade, yes it is a good idea if you think of all the extra things we could get, perhaps with rares and have to build them or chips or something

Things like goggles etc, like you sometimes see in games where people get xray vision until power runs out etc so you have to be quick and so on

That is a good idea, and I also like the idea of the snow areas with new snow mobs

All of these ideas are probably not so hard or difficult to program and it would add so much to the game (but then I know absolutely nothing about programming)

one : spells cant be modded with flashlights.

two: soulclusters or barrels don't illuminate, only themsleves are visible.

three: many places undergrounds are already dark enough. Now, pepper park, a little bright, yes. Via Rosso's too damn bright, MOST ESPECIALLY THEIR DAMN APTS!

four: if there's to be a PSI Light (I heard there was one in beta), it'd have to be PSI/MST req only with fairly high mana. So it'd be accessible to APUs as well.

I don't care about "LOL onoz it dont hurt anything, its PPU!", I consider such things cantrips - something that any monk should be able to do, like any character can use a stiletto or something.

There is was an EPU/PPU Spell that "lit up" the area :p

Cantrips. I like the sound of that Porker. Maybe PSR should be changed to "psi basics" or something like that. It could involve "small" spells or something that give basic advantages.

Heavyporker

TL3 heal and perhaps basic resist/deflectors are cantrips in my eyes. Should only require PSI and MST, along with some mana. Thats it.

an uber event where the power of neocron gets knocked out by DoY kamis :P

and where copbots malfunction and NC turns into a pk zone for a few hours :P


err uber flashlights!

err how about in these dark areas . monks should need support from other classes to light up the area so they can attack also . . but to navigate the area .. they'd only need to bring out a flashlight . ..
