hey all love the mod ok lets just get down to buisness below is a 1 idea i thought of.


idea 1: I have really been thinking hey what about the grunts! Becasue i would like it if in BB there were two views u could play from the survivors view or the soldiers view, it would really cool if you could make it where you can play as the survivor view in a multyplayer game and everyone have a survivor skin on. And thats not all in the server list menu it could mabye say like SV=survivor view to shorten it and GV=grunt view, playing as the grunt would be awesome becasue u could be flying in a black hawk en route to Havens Gate or you could start out in a hospital and you have to fight your way out and reach the heli pads as the survivors have to do to. Thanks

or you could start out in a hospital and you have to fight your way out and reach the heli pads as the survivors have to do to.

So you would basically be a survivor that starts with a gun?

once you see the mod, you'll see that the idea is rather pointless. it's not a bad idea, it's just that it has no need.

oh

Then just about everyone would want to be a soldier most likely.

But what i am saying is if u spawned in the hospital as a grunt we could say that the hospital was the miltaray HQ and u had passed out or something or your blackhawk got shot down for some reason and your best friend jack or steven pulled u out of the crashsite and made it to HQ. Also if u played from the grunts point of view u would have to be a grunt model {i.e. beret,shepherd,grunt}. and to answer your question slappy if u played from the survivors point of view it would be the same thing nothing changed u would spawn at a barricade, get your weapons and go.

there is no hospital in bb_heavensgate, and so that would have to be a different map. the current map also only has a small number of grunts, and 2 helicopters.

there is no military HQ, just a few small areas with some small amounts of protection. these areas do not give much protection for long.

it's a funmod, with you playing from a survivor's point of view. all you want to do is find a way out of the town, and the military assists you to a small extent.

ok then maybe this can be added in later in a future version of BB?

I think a scenario would be great....

thank you.

sounds kind of similar to RE3's Merc missions, where you take the role of 1 of 3 mercs

and the more you play the more money you earn and you can purchase items for RE3 main game

not a bad idea though

I personally have found that the hardest place to go is beyond the military outposts. A level where you start off on one side and get to the other would be exciting and fun. But every player should have to get there to win: the players who make it stay in the game so they can help him get there and win the round. Thus, enforcing teamplay without removing fun.

It sounds like it would be good for a map all it's own or tweak the one huge map to make it a second thru the soldiers eyes as you come in and have to set up barricades and or rescue NPC survivers.

But to have both the soldiers with their own intro into the game and the survivers view into the game at the same time on the same map does not sound plausable for Half Life 1. Sounds nice but not plausable.
