Passing Ammo

MarshalTT · November 2006

Ammo is always a problem in ns. Giving ammo to another player in NS1 is almost impossible. (I now. You can drop him your weapon. But if you do this you only get back your weapon and 1 clip in it.)

If your teamate out of ammo you can drop him some clips. Or maybe he can take ammo from your belt any time.

i wouldnt say that he could take ammo from you.
but maby there could be a button to drop 1 clip of ammo.
i think that would be pretty helpfull

so if u have a sg and 8/30 ammo
and ur mate had 8/5
you could press this button once and have 8/14
and ur mate would get 8/21

or maby you could drop the amount that u get out of the armary

hippie, want to elaborate on the math of that, i'm at a total loss.

CrazyFool · November 2006

i think that hippie's scenario constitutes donating 2 clips because that's 16 rounds and it all works out

I think it's a good idea just in case you comm is a little slow. It's also easy to code so shouldn't be a problem.

like whle you wasting rounds your mate reloads hims gun tosses it to you as you toss your gun cos its empty, relaoder picks up yrou gun reloads it

I have another idea for the ammo and reload.

Marines need two type of reload. Fast reload and normal reload.

Normal reload is would be the same what we have in ns now.

If you are doing fast reload, the marine dont put away the clip. He is just drop it. So if you have some bullets in it you will lose them. But you have a shorter reload time. The droped clip only can picked up again after 15 second.

hum intersting marshal

yeah i know this oomwak
but usaly we cycle rines to the front if your out you fall to the back to reload, the issue with this is a lot of gun fights can be hectic, marines with freash ammo comeing form the back may not know which aliens are close to life or death

i cant wait till games become so good that all 12 of these indovidual sugestions become viable opttions if you team so desires to use said option

perhaps comm could drop ammo for free every 30 seconds or something like that.

id rather see the comm take care of marines or a team leader or support class

Soul_Rider · November 2006

Somehow i think classes in NS would make it a hella lot more confusing for the new players!!!

N_3 · November 2006

i think the comm can just look after this...
as for classes they're best in ns as subjective roles: ie good comm, good fade, good lerk, good gorge, good skulk

It would be cool to have the
Marine handing an ammoclip to the next player
animated.

This would definately look cool and give the whole thign a more interesting touch than just dropping an ammoclip to the floor.
