There might be different types of vests before 1.0. 10 lethal hit is way too much though
Also making such uber-vest available in the armory is for sure not a good idea. It might be a quest reward or something but definitely not as a stock item.

Idea: juggernaut armor info: the juggernaut armor is nothing more then a bomb disposal suit with a large amount of Kevlar, that being said the juggernaut armor can protect from explosions as well as bullets. protection limit bullets: 8 lethal hits (can take 3 with out knocking the player down) Alternative Juggernaut armor idea: bullet protection: 5, first 3 do not affect the user. other heavy limit: do to the design of the armor it is near impossible to hold a LMG or RPG while wearing it, because of that you can not use them while wearing this armor. rank requirement: Staff Sergeant 1st Class gained: is bought in an armory for 300 rp dragon scale looks:http://www.gearfuse.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/dragon-skin.jpg info: same as a normal vest in protection, though the first hit will not knock you down. scouting vest looks: a slimmer version of the normal vest cost: 10 rp (can respawn with it) info: only protects against one fatal hit, does not put unit in medic mode n the second Exoskeleton before you say this isn't syfi I ain't talking the high powered weapon mounted things you see in video games and movies I am talking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_exoskeleton more or less a power assist rig. info: the exo suit is a simple powered exoskeleton. Unlike other vests the exo suit doe not protect against bullets, instead i increases the users move speed and strength this means the user wearing this will move faster and be able to carry more in combat (no clue how the strength part can be shown in game, maybe make this a requirement of some weapon or something) stats player speed increased by 0.30 encumbrance limit doubled? ----------------------------- Idea: Automated Drones/Turrets info: for this idea the drones are split into 3 types, track drones, copter drones, and stationary drones. each has an automated version and a controlled version. It should also be noted that all drones with weapons have limited ammo, after they run out they will self destruct. track drones LMG track looks: http://www.michellehenry.fr/drone10.JPG image sums it up. info: this is the standard drone, it is armed with a LMG with 400 rounds of ammo and 4 impact grenades. Not only that but it takes 2 lethal hits to down the LMG track. but it has a draw back in both manual and automatic mode it can not stray far from friendly territory with out losing signal. note: if stay out of friendly territory with this for 20 seconds will shut down and self destruct. AI mode note: When a AI controls this they will do so from the farthest bases from the front line, allowing them to be safe from combat. automatic mode note: in automatic mode this drone will act as a turret defending the area it was deployed in. obtained by: ??? can't put in armory do to the fact this would be a bit much for that. assault track looks: see LMG track only with a weaker weapon and no launchers info: a weaker version of the LMG track this drone can be gained from any armory after gaining 5,000 exp, is armed with a nondescript assault rifle that is loaded with 80 rounds of ammo. other info: same as LMG track obtained by: costs 150 rp in armory COPTER DRONES spy drone looks: http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/0 ... 68x338.jpg info: the spy drone is a manual control only drone, that allows its user to spot targets in hostile areas, it's main draw back is that it is a spy drone and not armed or armored (going down in one hit lethal or not). Though A high ranked character can use this to pinpoint locations for bombs or reinforcement drops behind enemy lines. AI mode note: AI's will use this for scouting behind enemy lines, if you see one shot it down and bring it to an armory for some rp. automatic mode notes: in automatic mode will fly around the area deployed and alert allies to hostiles in the area. gained by: armory for 100 rp can be gained at 1000 xp stationary drones note: stationary drones are automatic mode only. smart mine looks: http://pds.exblog.jp/pds/1/201206/05/02 ... 252116.jpg info: this drone is the first of the stationary drones, and it is a mine that can explode 6 times at a minor range. basically its a low range impact grenade launcher that fires only at vehicles. damage per explosion: 90 gained by: found in crates rarely, also deployed by AI's rarely ADS (automated defense system) looks: http://www.wired.com/images_blogs/photo ... n_rcws.jpg info: unlike other drones this one can not be deployed by the player ADS turrets are instead spawned on key points when areas are captured, they are armed with the same gun as the APC and can take 4 lethal hits before being disabled, on the upside they do not re spawn until the area is recaptured. (aka if you take ones in an enemy area out they will not respawn until the area is captured by your team or another enemy) ----------------------------- New Rocket Launcher: M202 Flash info: the m202 flash is a 4 found rocket launcher that fires incendiary rockets. That being said the rockets fired from this weapon are more effective against people then vehicles unlike other rocket launchers. flamethrowers may not be used by the military any more but that is because they have this thing. stats damage vehicles: 0.75 damage people: 0.7 kill chance on hit + 0.1 kill chance per second for 8 seconds (as they are on fire) effective range: 6 shots per weapon: 4 weapon type: launcher gained: rare drop from crates / fire call? ----------------------------- New game mode: Refugee refuge is a game mode in which the 3 sides start with only one base area (can't be lost) this game mode is special in the fact that the main bulk of the map is controlled by civilians who must be evacuated from the battle field. The objective of this game mode is simple the side to evac the most civilians at the end of the mach wins. It should be noted that a tansport truck is a soldiers best friend in this game mode. types of civilians scared citizen: a civilian in the wrong place they will follow the first ranking soldier that gets near them, can be evaced by taking them to a evac zone doing so gives RP cop: a civilian armed with a spas12 and a vest, like other civilian can be evacuated for rp, unlike other citvlians is armed looter: a civilian armed with a knife, unlike other civilians this one has a pack with random items after evac will drop random items and weapons on evac site. getting the civilians to a safe zone would give RP to the player that does so. killing civilians will remove RP and xp, which makes getting them off the battle field A high priority. It should also be noted each soldier can only have two civilian following them, while this does mean a large squad can evac a large group of civilians it does limit lower end soldiers for that reason civilians will enter transport trucks if one is near and has a driver note: this is basicly a multi flag game mode in which the flags move and some have guns. ----------------------------- New Vehicles: Self-Propelled Artillery, Stryker, Assault Buggy Self-Propelled Artillery image: http://www.armyrecognition.com/Amerique ... er_001.jpg this would be a long range engagement vehicle having 3 times the range as the normal tank, though at the cost of having a 2x slower turn on the cannon and a slower reload time. vehicle stats seat: 1 driver, 2 gunners max speed: 10 guns: artillery cannon, and a LMG turret health: 3 damage: 200 (cannon), 0.58 chance (turret) notes: the self-propelled Artillery has a 2x slower turn on its main cannon this means it can not hit moving targets that is unless the gunner leads the shot, this is off set by the fact that it fires at an arc, allowing it to hit targets over walls and buildings. stryker APC image:... ok 3 images as this would have 3 variants slat armored: http://defense-update.com/images/strykercage.jpg assault variant: http://www.army-technology.com/projects ... yker_1.jpg tank variant: http://xbradtc.files.wordpress.com/2008 ... usa_07.jpg vehicle 3 assault buggy image: http://tn.en.fishki.net/26/upload/en/20 ... 55164d.jpg the assault buggy is a light 4 person scout vehicle which can be found on the more open maps, it is armed with 3 LMG's, it is the jeeps big brother when it comes to armament, though it is no where near as safe as the Humvee vehicle stats health: 1 max speed: 50 seats: 1 driver, 3 gunners (3 LMGs) note: all people in the assault buggy are easy pickings for any soldier if they are not moving,also the forward gunner only has a 90 degree aiming area, while the center and rear have 180 degree aim areas. gained by: found on some open maps (probably) Combat Bulldozer image and info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armored_bulldozer the combat bulldozer is a heavy armor slow moving vehicle, It is not a combat vehicle despite being the most heavily armored ground vehicle it is next to useless in front line combat as anything more then a barricade wrecker and mobile cover. stats health: 7 max speed: 8 seats: 1 driver, one MG gunner damage: 0.56 kill chance (main gun) gained by: fire call or found on maps. combat truck image: http://image.4wheeloffroad.com/f/27390460/131_1001_02_z+mrap_military_vehicles+mrap_cougar.jpg info: the combat truck is a mobile stash for weapons and armor (aka a mobile stash), like other vehicles the AI can control and use it, for example this truck might be brought to the front line, at which point the team with it will start using it to resupply grenades and explosives, meaning they will have more explosive fire power. note: do to its design the combat truck can take a few hits from explosives, and in fact takes reduced damage from grenades. health: 2.75 max speed: 17.5 seats: 1 driver, one gunner, and 1 passenger ----------------------------- faction specific vehicles ideas TANK wheeled tank (forgot the actual name, and can't find it) image: http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k259/iemand_2006/Bastogne%20perimeter%20walk%202010/DSC_1237bewerktframed.jpg info: this is basicly a faction specific version of the tank (grey), it is armed the same as the normal tank but with some minor differences. health: 2.75 seats: 1 driver 2 gunners speed: 15 t-90 image: https://wiki.colby.edu/download/attachm ... Mbangi.jpg info: like the tank above this is a faction specific version of the tank (brown), it is armed the same as a normal tank but with some minor differences health: 3.5 seats: 1 driver, 2 gunners speed: 8 troop transport note: current one is swapped to brown by default half track image: http://www.vectis.co.uk/AuctionImages/106/2301_l.jpg (sorry for using a toy as image) info: is a faction specific version of the troop transport (grey) unlike other transports the units in this one can fire out of it, though at the cost of being protected from small arms fire. health: 1.6 speed: 17.5 seats: 1 driver 7 passengers (2 less then normal) stryker image: see slat striker image info: this is a faction specific version of the troop transport (green), unlike other transports it has a lower carry capacity but has higher armor then any of them health: 2 speed: 17.5 seats: 1 driver, 5 passengers, 1 "gunner" (uses their main weapon from a fire port on the top) ----------------------------- New Call ins and call in method: just an idea for a mechanic, how about ever so rarely colored flares being found in crates, these flares would have rare fire calls which will be triggered by their use. the rare fire calls have 2 types, flare which can be destroyed and flare guns which can not. flare supports: take 2 seconds to deploy and 5 seconds for the call to come in, flare can be destroyed by explosives or a lucky shot. flare gun supports: takes 1.5 seconds to deploy, drop comes in 3 seconds. can not be destroyed but lights up the area so all can see (aka marks a [color] flare symbol on the map) note: all flares count as a grenade item, be it a flare gun or standard drop flare, you can also only carry one of each per stack. osprey support (yellow flare) does: calls in a osprey armed with two side machine guns, will drop in four soldiers, that will provide fire support and follow the person who called the osprey. exp requirement: 7,000 note: soldiers have ballistic vests, and random weapons. Apache support (red flare) does: calls in an Apache gunship armed with a forward machine gun and 2 rocket pods, that will cover the area for 30 seconds before leaving. during this time it can be downed by rockets (8 hits), the apache is good for taking down multiple vehicles. exp requirement: 8,000 RP supply (red flare gun) does: drops 8 crates containing supply caches (brown boxes worth 100 rp each), each crate contains from 2 to 7 supply caches. exp requirement: 4,000 bulldozer drop (blue flare) does: calls in a combat bulldozer (idea mentioned above). this drop is useful as it gives the team that calls it a front line breaker (hard to kill mobile cover that can plow through most things). exp requirement: 7,000 minigun drop (blue flare gun) does: drops in a armament package containing a handheld m134 minigun this gun when equipped has 5,000 rounds and a 0.6 kill chance per hit, unlike other weapons it can not be reloaded. exp requirement: 5,000 3rd armored tank drop (green flare) does: when the flare is launched a group of 2 tanks with crews will be dropped at location. exp requirement: 8,000 black hawk support (orange flare) does: calls in 1 minigun armed black hawk which will land and deploy 8 random armed soldiers exp requirement: 7,000 spec ops light (green flare gun) does: makes it easier for the AI to detect hostiles at night, is used by the AI at random. exp requirement: 1,000 (NPC only) ----------------------------- New Grenades/Explosives: Molotov info:the molotov is a improvised explosive found in the armory, doesn't do much damage an is available form the get go. The Molotov is a really good anti personal grenade, as it would have 2x carry limit as they standard from the start and has a low cost. Though it does not have a 1 kill chance as it lights enemies on fire instead of blowing them up. stats damage: 0.2 blast range: 4 kill chance: 0.5 + 0.1 per second for 4 seconds dummy grenade info: a grenade with no explosives, when thrown NPC's will try to avoid it like a normal grenade in other words it's used for forcing hostiles out of cover so that your allied can take them out. smart mines info: light explosive mines that have friend foe chips, will detonate if a hostile gets to close. stats damage: 1 blast range: 2.8 kill chance: 1 detection range 2.4 claymore mines info: basicly 12 shotgun shells in a box, when this mine detonates it will fire off a barrage of shells in the direction it was faced stats range: 7 forward (only fires in a 90 degree cone) kill chance: 0.6 per pellet pellets per detonation: 68 (just typed a random number) |

| Post subject: | Re: vest idea: exo suit |
yeah, think I should have said 1.25% increase in speed. thing is that seems to weak for a single stat on a vest... unless the player can respawn with it. |

| Post subject: | Re: vest idea: exo suit |
to get an idea, you might just edit for example m16a4.weapon in \media\packages\vanilla\weapons\ and change the entry Code: <modifier class="speed" value="-0.036" /> to Code: <modifier class="speed" value="+0.25" /> This will make a soldier carrying a m16 running 25% faster as without weapon (don't forget to change it back, or make a overlay mod for your changes, that's easy) |

Those can be relatively easily modded btw if you want to give it a shot

if you can tell me how, I will give it a try. |

| Post subject: | fire call idea: spec ops team |
came up with this idea after attempting a stealth attack. I called in a large amount of paratroopers cause the first group alerted the defenders. While the attack failed it gave me an idea for a stealth fire call idea. info: the spec ops team call is unlocked at the same time as your factions suppressed weapon, it calls in 3 soldiers armed with the suppressed weapon and a vest, nothing more nothing less. the difference is in how they get there instead of using parachutes to land in the spec ops team uses wing suits (basically they deploy the parachutes on screen at low altitude as to prevent them being spotted) |

| Post subject: | Re: vest idea: exo suit |
ok after some messing around think +0.30 would be good for this as that is noticeable but not to fast... also could this be used to negate 1 third of the weapon encumbrance (even though that seems to do nothing after having it at 1,000% with nothing changing) |

| Post subject: | Re: vest idea: exo suit |
the encumbrancy affects your aiming, not your movement speed (yet) |
