dukeleto 0 Posted December 18, 2014 I believe I posted this before, but I think it may have been on Reddit, so here it goes. I think a nice addition to the game to balance gameplay a little would be to add a role to select before you respawn. Here's the scenario. You die. It sucks. You say to yourself, Self! That was stupid! Why did you think that guy wasn't going to KoS?" So, you reflect. "Should I have just killed him? I saw him spawn and he obviously didn't know I was there." "No self, you shouldn't have. You must keep to your vow and become the medic that everyone needs you to be!"And that inner dialogue is where the story kinda falls apart. So, with this new dynamic loot spawning now promised in the 2015 outline (please give accommodations out load to developers at this point, even if you're in public), it would be a perfect time to implement my suggestion. Here's what happens when you die. Now you die. It sucks. Still. That doesn't change. But what changes is after your borderline pschysophranic inner dialogue, you have the option of starting as a medic. Here's the details before you think you get to spawn with an entire ambulance at your disposal. You get to select options from a backstory dialogue. Before the outbreak you...... were traveling for business. ... deployed on base for <state> military. ... volunteering for aid in Chernarus.... involved in a large crime ring smuggling, ah, "goods" out of Chernarus. ... I don't remember. There would more dialogues like this that would change where you spawn, with what objects, and maybe other things health related. They could ask hobbies, jobs, family, age, or even personality questions. Spawning places could be beach, farm, steppe, remote warehouse or other industrial, military crash site, civilian crash site, public safety crash site, so on and so on. Items to spawn with could branch out a bit. I miner might have a head torch and a flannel shirt, a medic may have scrubs, and a military person might have some combat boots. It wouldn't be too much because you'd want to balance the gameplay not tilt it, but now you can say, "Self. I can now fulfill my destiny because of the inspiration of this spawn."Please add on to this because I don't see it discussed very often, and my thumbs hurt from typing this on an iPhone.

nettles 396 Posted December 18, 2014 Everyone would just choose 'deployed' so they wouldn't have to loot for a gun and just go kill each other like it's CoD. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
