I think there should be some type of store for innocents, maybe one that lets them buy different melee weapons like a baseball bat, meat cleaver, etc., to replace the crowbar. Innocents gain credits to buy these things by staying alive, every minute they're alive they gain one credit.
I realize that having a close range weapon when there are guns all around is kind of pointless, but that's why I think that if they are choosing to use their melee weapon instead of their gun their melee weapon's damage is doubled. And if they do not have a gun, and are wielding a melee weapon, the melee weapon's damage goes back to normal.
That is extremely over powered. Also why would i double the damage? Why not make it twice as powerful....
*Quote Brian*
That is way to powerful. Up to 80 Damage 10 times is kinda high, i do however like the idea with the cross bow. However getting DNA from a crossbow bolt would be a pain in the ass. First of all the crossbow is a seperate entity. Therefore creating my own and getting it to have fingerprints or DNA scanner, implementing it into end of round achievments would be hard. But fun. I always wanted to meddle into the achievments and different stuff, i chose not to with the AK47, Frenchy, MP5, and Glock, but i plan to.
Overall the crossbow sounds like a great idea, maybe not as powerful as you describe it but it does sound cool. Though possibly not poison...
*On the subject of a poison syringe*
Ive been thinking about it, and i can't decide ruther i will make it or not. Personally i dont think it will be very useful. Traitors already have lots of tools of deception at their advantage, like the flare gun. However adding a close range poison syringe is just as risky as knifing someone. Plus its not as rewarding.You could easily tell who poisoned you in the middle of a crowd because you just have to look who was the closest person to you. What i think would be cool is a toxic gas grenade, it would release a poison gas and harm everyone within its cloud. A traitor could buy it and it would apear as a regular gas grenade, until you throw it.
*Other ideas*
Achievments after game, you may of seen some funny ones like "GottaCatchEmAll" for find 7+ bodies.
I was thinking for some for the frenchy and AK
Frenchy:
Maginto Power: *Name* felt inclined to prove his supremecy on *#ofKills* people. (Less then 4 kills)
BonJour: *Name* was having a good day, to bad *#ofKills* people were'nt. (Less then 6 kills)
French Pride: Contrary to popular belief, *Name* did not surrender to *#ofKills* advesarys. (Over 5 Kills)
AK47:
1st World: *Name* proved that you can kill *#ofKills* infidels without modern technology. (Less then 4)
Cheap but effective: *#ofKills* found out that *Name* is a cheap killer. (Less then 6)
Russian origins: *Name* returned to his Russian roots when he
?? *#fKills* people. (Over 5)
=============
Anyways, im heading back tommorow around noon so i should be back in the evening. I will then work on the Evolve admin mod, and possibly start coding in these achievments.
