No, you're the medic guy who dies at the first boss. +^^

Hmm remember that last game where I played around with fatty a lot... Or wait that was with sunny DAMN you should've seen that game.

Hello again S3rius. Me Nataraus again. I have just readen what u and Kortes has been talkin about in his topic 'Fix Thing'.. Very rude off him. To take over ur game creation. But still. Lets leave it for now. I got a new idea on ur game creation. A bird has been tellin me that u have been added extra units, in higher waves. I woulnd't say u should do it. Dawn of the Dead. Is originaly created of killing with 1x hero. And allies around. If a player gets more than 1x hero or units in that case, i believe ur gonna ruin the game. The game is focused on survival with 1x unit. So please dont add more units. Also have another idea, for ur maps. In the movie Dawn of the dead+ Resident Evil. The humans are getting awaken from the dead when they die, i know it gets harder but u can make a delay+cooldown, when a person dies, his corpse will lie their for around 7-10 min, and ''if u are puttin a medic (Revive skill)'' then if the person hasnt been revived, a Super soldier Zombie Will spawn out of his corpse. This idea is ofcause only for Oldstyle Survival mode, since people are directly autoressing in Deathmatch (or the new Alliance mode ur adding, if u are adding it ) Also in future ally mode their should be so not only 1 player is allowed to take sniper and medic and so on, but atleast 2-3 players at each class (only in Deathmatch and Ally mode) ''NOT IN OldStyle survival'' I like the class modes as it is, in Oldstyle Survival'' That was all from me

Ur nataraus.

P.S i would love to be a beta tester of urs. Also i would like to play a DotD for fun with u once. U can find me as Nataraus on Battle.net Europe.

*Also have another idea, for ur maps. In the movie Dawn of the dead+ Resident Evil. The humans are getting awaken from the dead when they die*

Ofcause not if they die by getting Team killed, but only if they are infected while their dieing. <3 Nataraus!

Thanks for your ideas.
Well, about extra units: they're controlled by the AI. The players can only control their own unit (and leavers). I don't intend to change it, too, it would indeed ruin the game ^^
I've been working on the reviving thing for some time and actually wanted to make it about that way. Unfortunately I am unable to check whether a unit is infected when this unit is just dying.
Deathmatch is removed from the version I am working on. I might add it later, but I'm already at 13k lines of code.. hope it won't get too messy .. :p
I will /w you when I'm online on b.net.

Also Thoudgh about another thing. If u and Clan S.t.a.r.s . has or not has, a clan in WC3 then i would love to Create or join it. As ''Clan S.t.a.r.s.'' or ''Clan DotD''!

<3 Nataraus

Arrrhh just seen uve been online!

Talking about testers, can i be one of the testers as well? XD
Was looking forward to it, by the way any estimation of when will it be finished or something, sort of like a deadline so that we got a clue of when can it be finished. Please do not be mistaken, i am neither trying to rush you nor asking the same question over again. I have read about your quotes saying you will put a BIG FAT POST if you are done.

I don't dare giving an estimation. I'd be way off anyways, I guess. There isn't so much more things that I want to be finished at all costs. But I've got no idea how long I need to finish that.
You can test, too, if you want. Best would be b.net Europe gateway or GGC (if you have).

i'll be in US West ingame name Enterkill.

Well if you wanna beta test then you probably need to come to Europe cuz thats where we all (most) are.

hey, s3rius i saw u on ggc last time, but looks like u were afk

hey s3rius, email me the beta map if you are done. I'll host it in us west. email: enterkill@hotmail.com

@RainBird: Ye, I sometimes forget to close it when I idle around ^^

@Enterkill: I don't want it to be hosted. Until I officially release it I am going to be the only one to host.

oh ok, then i'll go create an account in Europe =P

you can also create on in GGC/Garena

I know most of you don't know who I am, but I had a few idea's that I'd like to share. Maybe some seem a little over powered or doesn't make sense or not simply possible but, they are their as "idea's" and maybe you'll like them.

A item with 2 charges that heals fracture wounds or reduce it's duration
A gun that gives a small chance to slow target by a small amount like 5 or 10%


Operative:

Reload skill - Shouldn't it be labled something else?
Increase clip size to 40 as 35 disappears fast with 45% attack speed at max level
Reload skills max + shotgun fully max - Maybe give the shotgun a boost? Or...
Critical strike max + nitrogen bullets - *ricocet* Bullet bounces and hits a target behind him

Sniper

EMP Cartidge - I never really liked it, takes a second to cast and then it doesn't deal too much damage so it hardly ever kills anything.

Rifle scope - Maybe i'm missing the point here but the AOE it covers doesn't help very much.

Medic

I gotta say, the medic fine, besides the lack of battle support but it's a medic.

Scout

Another one that fit's its class, not much combat but more of being your teams run around get me items person

Engeneer

One thing... Wish I could place the turrets

Marine

He's just that.

Firstly, thanks for your ideas and welcome to the forums.

About the Operative:
He's pretty much overhauled and got a completely new set of skills (also isn't called operative anymore).

Sniper:
EMP Cartidge was actually only a place holder. I didn't know any other sniper-ish skill, but I liked the sfx of the cartridge =) Rifle scope really has too small aoe. I changed that a while ago.

Engi:
The turret can be placed now.

I'd love to add guns which slow down, but unfortunately thats impossible due to limits of wc3. Poison, splash, etc don't work in combination with the kind of attack that the marines are now using.

The anti fracture kit is a nice idea, but it would make the medic less important so I don't really know.. at least fractures will occur muuch less than in 5.3 beta4 (a bug caused too many fractures).

(all changes and information refer to the non-released version of DotD on which I am working just now. In case you wonder )

I know who you are, i've played with you last week-end ^_^
with both my characters ^_^

i was wondering, why isn't there anyone brave enough to tank the creeps.... perhaps make one character (with chainsaw)... a melee specialist. About the fracture... maybe this guy could be immune to fracture...

suggestion for the next beta: make us know when someone is reloading.. especially the machine gunners...

also knowing what the upgrades in rank will give you would be nice
