Community Question: What do YOU want to ask the community?

(MoonOnAStick) #21

What features would you pay for in an FTP game?

– Purely cosmetic items (clothing, decals, voice packs, rgb html colours for tags).
– Guns. Lots and lots of guns (all sidegrades, obviously :wink:
– New classes/class-variants (with alternate clothing/voices/weapons).
– One-time full RRP payment to unlock everything.
– Server rental.
– Access to new maps (beta testing, user-generated content).

Other good questions

Post game statistics, heat-maps, voting, chat options. How long?

Expected Fireteam feature set (interface, matchmaking, communication, user-generated content).

(A)symmetrically balanced teams?

Best modes from previous SD games?

Kill log - small icons or actual weapon names or a toggle for either?*

*Charged Blaster or Akimbo /cough
*On average, how often would you change class per map? If you stuck mainly to 1 class, explain why.
*Proxy Mines - what was your preferred method of removing them? 1.defuse 2.nade/spam 3.activate and run
*Highest Kill Count per Weapon/Class
*What do you think about incorporating RTS elements into the ET model beyond deployables?
*Is there anything that is unique to Brink, that you would like to see in the new upcoming game?
*Would you /uninstall if you found out there were elements of Brink in the new upcoming game?
*Do cartoony gfx annoy the crap out of you? /cough
*/Kill - discuss

Depends on how well the team is doing, generally on pub I stick to sniper or medic. If the team can’t get anywhere I go RL/olbit or F.ops/opp to try to clear a path.

*Proxy Mines - what was your preferred method of removing them? 1.defuse 2.nade/spam 3.activate and run
Depends on where the mine is placed, and how many people are around.

*Highest Kill Count per Weapon/Class
Tech/Lacerator or Medic/AR

*What do you think about incorporating RTS elements into the ET model beyond deployables?

I think that’s silly. I want to pew pew not stratgetize!

*Is there anything that is unique to Brink, that you would like to see in the new upcoming game?

The SMART could of worked, but if It was implimented better, but I’m not sure how it could be.

*Would you /uninstall if you found out there were elements of Brink in the new upcoming game?

All depends on gameplay or me.

*Do cartoony gfx annoy the crap out of you? /cough

Nope, it’s refreshing to not see which developer has the best grey colour tablet.

When are you going to release ETQW under the GPL (how-ever many complications it might involve)?

(Humate) #25

Dthwsh… im taking the piss, no need to answer. :slight_smile:

(Ashog) #26

ahahaha pwn3d :slight_smile:

(deems) #27

Rather than ask the community, I’d like to ask SD what their impression is of how BRINK went down. Do you guys see it as a success, or was it a frustrating failure for you? And if the latter, what do you think went wrong? I don’t want to be an a-hole about BRINK and bringing up old ****, but I think a lot of people are worried that some of the things that dissappointed about BRINK are doomed to be repeated…

Someone needs to invent a sarcasm notifier for the internet, It doesn’t transate well digitally. :o

(tokamak) #29

I think some genuine introspection would go very far in winning the trust before the next game is released. I guess those who aren’t familiar with what SD can do with ET or ETQW will find it hard to justify banking on the next game based on just their experience with Brink.

(Nail) #30

and yet you are

(Humate) #31

Replace the introspection with an announcement date on the new PC game /cough

(tokamak) #32

I prefer the introspection.

(Humate) #33

You’ll probably get that in a hype article about the new game.

(tokamak) #34

That’s okay. If the hype is about how certain things should be different then that’s awesome.

(Boktor) #35

How about a very general “What would you absolutely hate to see implemented in the next big FPS title.”

Personally I detest matchmaking, but I wonder what others think.

(tokamak) #36

When I look at Counterstrike I think the ‘quick play’ option is amazing. I wouldn’t mind if that was somehow tied to match-making either.

Not to derail the thread, but to answer your question - anything that is an artifact of multi-platform gaming.
Whether that be gameplay related, or technical - too many to list.

As far as features go on the PC only side of things, cartoony gfx, and crosshairs that dont include a dot. /cough

(iwound) #38

sorry for being thicker than the offspring of the village idiot and the town bike but whats the point of these questions unless your developing a new et type game. then the only question should be, do you want us to tell you about the new game or to keep arsing about and teasing you for months on end.

(SockDog) #39

Slight tangent question.

Given a kickstarter doesn’t proceed if it doesn’t hit it’s mark would SD be willing to do a kickstarter for a W:ET style game given it would be a low risk endeavor? I suppose that should read, If SD was to do a kickstarter for a W:ET style game what price point would you be buy the game at before bonuses? $10, $15, $20, $30, $40.

Bonus question. What bonuses would you want?

(.Chris.) #40

Why would they need a kickstarter? They’re making a game now.
