If u only had 1 life in PR

[theflidgeface]

i wonder what PR would be like if they made it so there were NO spawns O.o

just somethin i was pondering, feedback is most welcome

Insurgency would be interesting... nobody would use big red (well almost no one).

hehe i would!!

people would probably play slower, although it would be fun to do something like see how people would react if we gave the INS like 5 spawns and BLUEFOR 1 spawn....just wondering

If you only had one life, PR would be called 'Project very small, short battles and lots of watching AFK people', or, in its shortened form, 'Counterstrike'.

the maximum team size in PR is 32. That is just over a single platoon; an unrealistically small number of troops to commit to the scale of operations on the maps. Respawning simulated troops being called up from the Coy/Btn reserves (who would, if so available be in the fighting anyway in reality, but there's only so much that can be done), and is much more sensible (and fun) than a single platoon.

What would be intresting is a HOt new super modern war game, new graphics, new things of every thing and just like PR, But when you buy the game you only get one life with it! So everytime you join a server you only have one life, if you die, you must buy a new copy of the game, muahahahhahaha. Imagen that swiss chocolate. Teamwork? Hell yes

I think it would be neat to do an event in PR where every person got only one life and when you die you get instantly IP banned from the server till the event is over and someone else would take your spot. Would probably need a lot of hype but it would be a neat way to experience it while still having a decently full server.

I think a really awesome idea for PR2 would be to have a special hardcore game mode where if you get killed you are instantly disconnected and ip banned from said game mode for 30 minutes. It would be the kinda thing where you do it when you first connect to PR2 and then once you die you just go play normal servers. I could just picture it in Teamspeak, "Hey guys you wanna go pub?", "Sure, lets start hardcore though", "Sounds like a plan". To prevent griefers who just come in to TK people for fun and force them outta the gamemode you could have reports where said players get blocked from the game mode if credible evidence is provided.


PS with regards to the origanal question I think we could safely say the qoute:

"Every time there is any flying vehicle on a map, most people turn retarded."

would be changed to

"ANY flying vehicle on the map, would make EVERYONE turn PARANOID."

I would do that, sounds fun!

Technically I think that could be possible...
Hmm...

Oh wow, that comment combined with your avatar...



I don't really think the whole 'One Life' concept can be implemented properly into a game to fully provoke teamwork. In CounterStrike, you know you'll be back alive in a couple of minutes, so you will risk your life if you think it'll help win the round or up your Kill/Death.

One life in a game like PR could call for a lot of teamwork, or a lot of paranoia and complication. If your higher up makes a suggestion that seems stupid even if there is logic behind it because of other information, there could be bickering and disobedience in the ranks.

There would be lots of empty servers and frustrated gamers jumping from server to server lol. Image if you get spawn raped lol

[gazzthompson]

intill PR gets on a engine that has 200vs200 (about) people, respawns will be needed for realism and gameplay.

[-Sauso-]

Would be lame and i wouldn't play .

or sprinting down stairs and starting to bleed

I cant think of anything more infuriating or boring than this idea.

[Hfett]

100 US soldiers on Ramiel against 300 Insurgents.

No Respawn, whoever dies will go to "freelook" and watch the outcome.

It would be awesome, sadly cant be done because of the player number limitation

[=SAGA=C-FOUR]

I don"t think that"s a good idear, any way, PR is a GAME, if there is only one life in every round, it would be awesome~~~~

[badmojo420]

It would be cool to play a massive multiplayer role playing war sim. Where you start out in bootcamp, and progress further like in the real military. Only players who've seen lots of combat and lived through it, would be up for promotion to the higher ranks or commanding roles. If you die at any time, that's it, your character is done, his records are kept in your trophy case or whatever, but you can never play with him again. Add in some character customization, and visual scarring like in fable, maybe an injury system where you can be discharged if the injury is severe, or returned to service after recovery. Training, firing range, physical strength upgrade system(if you work out lots, your strength is increased, if you use the firing range, your accuracy is better, etc.)

You could even have multiple versions of the game, like Army, Navy, Airforce. And perhaps even have faction specific version, so you can't switch teams without buying another game. Of course they would all work together, so while people playing the Army version call in for some close air support, it would be a player playing the Air Force version that flys in and drops the bombs.

obviously none of you people have played operation flashpoint...

thats exactly how op flashpoint is in multiplayer. you die, you get to free look until the round is over. and that can take hours. in my opinion, its what killed any really solid online community for that game. you could join a server at any time, but couldnt play until a new round started or if you were lucky you would join right when the round started.

its a novel idea for maybe a special PR event, but if it was the norm it would completely ruin the game.

[ankyle62]

i wouldnt play, no way would i wait around 20mins to start playing.

[master of the templars]

It just wouldn't work with the scale of war which PR attempts to portray.

[eker676]

More than about 2 minutes to play after getting killed and I would quit. Realistic and fun need to go hand in hand for a great game. Nobody would wait for a 2 hr round to end just to play again.
