VC's Laboratory 100205: Goldfinger, First Draft

<< < (4/8) > >>

Jonathon [SSL]:
How about upon picking up a Gold Brick, the player gets a Golden Gun with three extra rounds. The only way they can get additional ammunition is to pick up more gold bricks (1-3 rounds per pickup), and if you run out of GG ammo you lose all your bricks.

This forces players not to spam with the GG, and makes it a precious item to have.

Yes it is, because with the MWtGG you only have one player with the GG and he/she cannot on forehand predict where players are going to (which is away from you if you chose a good campspot) so you can shift aim camp at a certain spot while taking cover.

And then with MWtGG the player with the GG is highlighted on the map (you can't do that with GF because it would get too complex to manage) and he is attacked by everyone. In GF a person which has a GG is not the center of attention (for bullits).

However, if you would equate the goldbar with the amount of bullets in your gun, you could make an investment with your goldbar in killing people more easily and thereby increasing your score, which makes it kinda financial and gold is finance.

Soooo... getting a GG with three bullits when picking up a goldbar would be realy interesting to play. However, getting goldbars wouldn't be the main focus of the gameplay anymore because it would only be interesting for players without a GG to grab a goldbar to get it and then the people that do have it might camp for the players who want to reach the goldbar. That in turn would probably make people without a GG go after the person with the GG and thus rendering the gamemode irrelevant. It would turn it into MWtGG mode with multiple GGs and making the aquiring of the GG just more difficult, which would imbalance the mode even further.

OK, just playtest it first and then we (or you, VC+devs) will see if it's fun.

Kinky:
Or have it so the gold bars ARE the bricks. And to use the GG you have togive up a "brick" per shot. Then youd probably need more "bricks"...

Anyway its got a lot of potential.

Then there would be no use of getting the GG, other than denying another person to obtain a goldbar,..

That I can totally agree with ;)

Sergeant Kelly:
Ooh, I like the gold brick/bullet idea. If you want to use your gold gun, you have to sacrifice your score.
