Nah.. only if your only intention of playing is just doing what ever the fuck you want without caring about objectives and team work. I don't think this should be default but should be a neat "hardcore" option or something. 2 teams with an equal amount of classes and restricted areas.... that would be so much fun because you'd be playing with people knowing what the fuck to do in their respective roles.

Again.. not as an exception but in addition to the default mode.
But seriously, would the military really send in guys with rocket launchers to the frontlines to blast away at a room full of friendlies and enemies...?
I view this mode as sort of a game of chess in an FPS setting.

So...these are the changes/additions *I* would make to the game. I'm pretty sure there's more brewing in the ol' noggin, but they'll remain there until I go hands-on with the game again (hopefully with GAFers later in the eve).
- Two second invincibility upon spawn disabled by player attack attempt
- Grenades server option
- Friendly Fire to 50% of health by default; server option to enable full
- Friendly Fire to 50% applies to same team turret splash damage
- Assault class non-Boost speed reduced 30%
- Spawn grenade disabled within enemy presence
- Enemy proximity chat through external speakers by default
- Invite Friends game lobby option
- Server and player info option from server list
- Pistol ribbon kill count lowered to 5
Feedback appreciated!

I like them all. With the bolded, do you mean permanantly? Or only while an enemy is within a certain zone around the spawn point, a player can not spawn?

I took a suggestion from earlier in the thread and just set it down to easy for that part. I was stuck there for two fucking days on Veteran.
I'm a bit disapointed by the campagin so far (half way through the campagin). I didn't expect much from the story but so far there is like...nothing. I hope that changes a bit towards the end. It's basically killroom after killroom. The other problem I have is the worlddesign. I don't feel like I'm on another planet with a excisting culture, it's more like...so, how can we design the next level for some good firefights.
Gunplay and Graphics are pretty good though.

TTP, there was some serious lag in that game.

There's only two particularly hard bits on elite.fps fanatic said:
The train section where you need to destroy the tank and the Radec fight. The Radec fight is ever so slightly worse than particularly hard though... I don't think I'll ever beat it.

Here is the simple fix for spawn campers. Spawn Camping was a huge issue in Warhawk, and they fixed that really quick.
Give everyone a 3-5 second window after they spawn. They are completely invisible to the enemies eyes and invulnerable. When the 3-5 seconds is up, you appear to the enemies and they can kill you.
HOWEVER, if you fire your weapon while invisible/invulnerable, then you immediately lose it and are fair game for a frag.
That is the exact same way they did it on Warhawk. This way, you could actually see your enemies, run around behind them, and kill them if they spawn camp.

Wow, just thinking ofPsychotext said:
the Radec encounter alone sounds tough as hell. It's that bad, huh?

I just reached reached over 10,000 mission points in total
I wish there were more save points at the boss though, since you have to do the waves all over again as you say if you die at the rocket guys :\
The rocket guys can actually relatively easy to avoid if you go to the top left corner (while facing Radec). At this spot the rocket guys cant hit youRapping Granny said:

Stop coming with ideas on how to "fix" multiplayer. None of them are particularly any good. Just get the better at the game plz.
edit: The only thing that needs fixing is the final area in singleplayer. If any Guerrilla dev is reading, it seriously taints the ENTIRE campaign. When you're done, you don't feel accomplished or relief, the only thing you feel is insane murderous intent against every single soul responsible for the development of KZ2. Put an extra checkpoint in there, I dunno, but for god's sake do something about it.

People's idiotic spawn placement bugs me so much, that I've stopped playing as a Medic and started playing as a Tactician. (Getting the Air Support badge really made that possible--thanks again to Ploid 3.0 and Rikyfree!)Kittonwy said:The problem I have with spawn points right now is that tacticians are always throwing them in the wrong direction, granted if they switch the direction 180 degrees, those guys would still get it wrong, in the end we need better tacticians, the problem is that I'm not playing tactician right now, but then I could also turn water into wine and walk on water but I don't want to.
I guarantee that all my spawn placements are facing toward enemy strongpoints, but in cover from them.
I could live without any class or weapon balancing; it's not like the game is unplayable or unfun. But there are two things that have nothing to do with player skill, and which do need fixing:jett said:
1. Spawn grenades right next to objectives in Warzone.
2. No party system.

Just thought I'd throw that at ya. :lol I personally don't think the game needs fixing, but there are some balance issues and just overall decent features that would make the MP even more enjoyable. Nothing wrong with that.

Only while an enemy is occupying the zone surrounding the spawn point. As long as the spawn grenade is active, it is a POSSIBLE spawn point.

I don't know if it is just the end of the game. The train part is a real fucking chore on both Vet. and Elite. I really only got past that due to dumb luck. Funny that both situations are with Rico. And by funny I mean I hate that fucking bastard and I hope that he dies a slow and painful death. Help you, motherfucker? Help yourself to the end of my goddamn rifle.
Seriously I wish I could kill my Alpha Squad mates sometimes.
That aside, Radec is so fucking cool. Him on the bridge is probably one of my favourite videogame scenes.
subtlesaysigh said:
don't know why they "fixed" the spawn points from the beta, that actually made being tactician so much more important as each spawn point did not make you invulnerable and placing them in well defended/hidden places was an art. And if you die from spawning there you know its compromised. I had some great Radec Academy games in beta with the old spawn system, now i put up with the new system but its way more annoying.

Really? On Trooper I actually thought Visari's Palace and the final fight was super intense and stressful but not unenjoyable. Those feelings are what I would want from a final boss encounter of a realistic shooter...
It DID make me realize that I would probably NEVER play this game on Elite though. At least not for "fun".
I know it's taboo to mention other shooters in these threads, but as an example the final encounter in the missile base in COD4 was MY idea of dreadful. Fucking timer, my ass!

Perhaps different play style preferences. I found the end fight difficult, but not frustrating. However, the bridge and the train had me cursing the game and the developers. With that said, I have not reached the end of the game on Elite. I am only now at the part that is emulated by Visari's Hammer. I imagine I will be happy for the checkpoints I get in the last encounter while simultaneously cursing the lack of additional checkpoints.

Those of you getting really pissed (e.g, FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUU) at the last fight in Visari Palace: what difficulty are you playing it on?
It was tough but fun and doable on Trooper, I thought.
(No story spoilers, just refers to what enemies spawn when and some trophy info.)
I understand the frustration of taking out the rolling assholes that run up the stairs, but at that point you should know when the RPG dicks appear. And you can always knock it down to Trooper at the end, if you want. You won't even get penalized in terms of trophies, since there's no trophy for Veteran completion.
Is that part really that much worse on Veteran? I'm making my way up to it on that diff. level now. It would seem to me that as long as you know WHEN the first RPG fuckers pop out, the only serious challenge (as long as you know the sequence of people spawning) is to kill the rolling assholes who make it up the stairs just before then.
