aksuduud 64 Posted November 27, 2012 At the moment all items have a fixed spawnrate, with time this means that the amount of high tier weaponry will increase at a steady pace even without duping. Now, if standalone is to implement the degradation of weapons, or maybe thats just a rumor, who knows, i think the spawn rates should adapt to the amount of weapons that already exist in the world.As in if no AS-50s exist in the hive, the spawn rate would be increased, and as they become more numerous the spawn rate starts dropping which would lead to the amount of guns dropping which would again increase the rate, this would keep the amount of high tier guns steady instead of everyone carrying them, and technically would be realistic, as if lots of those guns have been taken obviously theres less of them left! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpediembr 10 Posted November 27, 2012 Na, keep it as it is and add decay to weapons. Like 100/200 shots and you need scrap metal to fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aksuduud 64 Posted November 27, 2012 But that leads to the situation that tons of high tier weapons exist stockpiled throughout the hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roark92 90 Posted November 28, 2012 you're right. if everyone is running around with a very high tier weapon, then we must logically assume that the local high tier weaponry has been looted already. changing the spawn rates like you said actually supports authenticty, as well as immersion. just dont let the spawn rate actually hit 0 and maybe dont actually have an increase occur (no higher than default spawn rate) because it will not take long for the default rate to populate the world.also to address 2 inevitable issues...1. yes high grade weapons are mass produced and stockpiled. are they stockpiled in chernarsus by the thousands? i dont know but it isnt logical to assume that so probably not.2. a team of players manages to loot/steal all the high grade weapons and now they are sitting on them all in their camp. well... good for them, they have earned their alpha spot. but now they are a target for other players of all factions. and all empires crumble eventually, so that is a temporary issue. (its actually immersive and awesome if you ask me)so...great suggestion i think! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aksuduud 64 Posted November 28, 2012 If a clan manages to get hold of a lot of high tier weaponry their treasure receives the value it should have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonicdahedgie 31 Posted November 28, 2012 Na, keep it as it is and add decay to weapons.
