Yea, I do read through everything.

DOOMONYOU wrote:-new zombie “infected dog” using wolf model
has fast movement speed but with low health and is able to ignore unit pathing, spawns 3-4 at a time, increased chance to cause bleeding from dogs bite.

-pack leader, stronger infected dog with greater hp and damage, spawns 1 with 2-3 infected dogs

Good idea all in all. I might add that. Though low health means that it'll be picked off within a second. And high health means that it'll slaughter you if you meet them alone^^

DOOMONYOU wrote:-give engineer the chainsaw ability 30 mana cost, 20 sec cd. Able to cut down trees or deal massive melee damage

Good idea, but probably impossible. Surprisingly Wc3 lacks an ability which can target both trees and units at the same time >.<

DOOMONYOU wrote:new class “FIELD SURGEON”
...

I don't think much of that class concept. Just look at the skills:
Make heal items
Area heal
Heal
Heal special injures.

Sounds pretty boring, huh? Not only are the last two spells already covered by the Medic, but (esp. without a default attack) it's going to be dead boring to play with. That's the reason why so few people like playing medic (imo Medics popularity increased a nice tad after he got Deagle..)

DOOMONYOU wrote:New class "Special operations"
....

The Vanguard will have about the same stats (armed with a SMG, about the Rifleman's stats). With Satchels, Expl. Charges, Demo Charges and AT/AI rockets there's enough heavy ordnance, I think. No need for AT/AP mines which are kind of a mash-up of these stated before.

DOOMONYOU wrote:Lvl1: burst fire. Fires a rapid burst from primary weapon (like uzi but smaller radius), disarm
Lvl5: laser designator – cruise missile/airstrike. Designates target then 3-4 seconds later a missile/laser guided bomb hits. Causes massive damage with a large radius. Requires spec ops to stand still during designation.

I'll keep these two skills in mind. I might add them later-on to some hero.

DOOMONYOU wrote:-increase duration that hero is effected by infections. this would increase the need to carry antidotes and rely on medics and other team members increasing the team cooperation of the map.

The Medic himself is pretty important already. More importance might be counter-productive. He's already the most important unit on NM/Hell. Duration is already at 5 or 6 minutes anyway. I don't remember many times where infection actually wore off instead of being healed.
Might be a nice idea of adding another, more powerful infection for mid/late game which requires fast treatment.

thanks Serius. apreciate the feedback

S3R well there is one attack that kills both trees and units.. It would just need to be heavily modified for a "Chainsaw"

Maybe can add another ...

ranged mob: Beetle

Ranged mob with small aoe splash attack. Eating lot of decomposed infected bodies mutated even the harmless beetle.

Skill: Armour with increasing armour with every continous hit (stacking maybe till a limit). Requires few high damage hit to kill instead of firing lot of bullets at it.

Sounds like a bit more of uncommon to boss type monster.


and flying ones:

Mutated Crows (crow model)/ Flying horrors (Harpies model)

Light to moderate hp

Skills: Contagious infections. Victims that are hit will suffer from infections/diseases n likely to spread to nearby allies. Appearance may have the disease cloud from pudge, but now from the soldiers that are being hit.

Increase a bit of ranged/flying mobs hehe

n of cus the primary victim of contagious infection cant be treated with antidote while suffering effect of infection, but require a bit of time for effect to wear off (can use heal stuffs for himself) . Therefore the unlucky dude need to stay a distance away from team mates

sorry to make so many posts but...maybe can add

Infected SRT soldiers (Space Fel Orc model)

Skills: critical hits, carrying standard issued SRT items like vests etc

i just finished watching zombieland and now i want twinkies to be in this game lol

Seasoner, you don't have to make another post all the time. You can use the Edit-button to add something to one post, especially if you post it that quickly in a row.

o, ok, thx

christmas day! wonder if s3rius got everyone anything... =P

Naw, I'm too greedy.. and too lazy..

But I've come to update this one: Link

PS: DotD B8 has 32 primary/secondary weapons up until now :] That's 4 more than in B7. Slowly I'm running out of ideas >.<

more weapons to me to find! glad to here the corpse to scout bag bug got fixed ^.^ to many things improved to me to comment on them all... gj s3rius!

From the update log:

- Killing of NPC soldiers (friendly fire) will now be punished.


Nice, no more desperate looting, lol

Lol, that depends on how severe the punishment is ^.^

Usual Punishment. Tking = I take your soul.

I'm immune, i lost my soul already. long story

oh I know you have Gimli.. I have it in a Jar...

now that would be a long story to explain how it ended up in ur possession

Yea... Perhaps when the rest of the clan has a couple years to devote to hearing this story I'll tell it

we can make it a big thing for both of us. I can tell everything up until i lost it and you can pick up from there and say how it came to you

System displaying who kill the soldiers or civilians will be good, at least we'll know who's being an ass, hope the punishment is not for the whole team, lol

Btw, are our codes usable in the next Beta 8 ? (i guess no)

Seasoner wrote:System displaying who kill the soldiers or civilians will be good

That's how it'll work.

Seasoner wrote:Btw, are our codes usable in the next Beta 8 ? (i guess no)

They will. I don't think I'll ever make the save codes incompatible.

Lol, ok, nice to have our codes able to work in next version, just that can't make those who lost the will to play much, cus of ranks, to play a lot (i saw that post in the other thread) except at the start to be curious...

there was only one time when there was a complication in the code system and s3rius provided a -load2 command (or something similiar) so old experience could be loaded. But i think that was way back between beta 2 and 3.

Something like this may be used again when the medal system gets finalized/implemented

so s3rius you going to add any of my ideas that we talked about on skype?
