If u only had 1 life in PR

[Bonsai]

Ive often pondered what that would be like. It would be cool to try it out just once but everyone would just try to ge the sniper and sit way back protecting themselves. People would value their one life more than the team objectives so it would be an absolute stalemate.

...what superhunty said.

[Cassius]

I would play arma or something then.

[Snazz]

I'm interested in trying it as an alternative game mode.

I can't imagine any harm in having it as an option.

[Gunners87]

Deja Vu?
It would turn the game into Americas' Army. That game consisted of camping and "blind firing".

[Cassius]

...what superhunty said.

Irl once a units makes contact, there is a lot more camping than in a game, especially in battles against insurgents, where the thing that counts most is K/D ratio.
Units makes contact, scrambles for cover, shoots at the enemy, calls in CAS.

Sounds like it would be IRL?

Another huge problem with this is the score board showing who is dead and alive on the enemy team.

I just hope PR2 will have a hardcore mode like this.

[crazyivan]

I agree about the event idea, they should try it out on a limited size map as a one off and see if it is successful. It would certainly be tense.

[TrueTypeSansSerif]

You could create a hardcore server where if you die, you get booted for about 30 seconds ..

[gazzthompson]

it wouldn't be realistic or good for gameplay to have 1 life. battles IRL arnt 32v32.

[Redamare]

VERY VERY FAST ROUNDS especialy Falluja lol .... USa would PEWN the first 3 minutes and no one would be left alive lol ...... thats why spawns simulate More reinforcments entering the Battlefield lol soooo when you realy think aabout it.. Everything in PR would have to be modified to incorporate Actual realism lol Insgts would have Much less explosives and Ammo and USA would have amazing assets loll it would be a Sad SAd slaughter and then PR would die and every one would go on to another game aha

[Exterior]

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 have said that for a while now...only not a new copy of the game..perhapes a new soldier.. that game would be a bust early if you had to buy a new copy everytime..lol

[Lugi]

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.

Sorry for refreshing very old topic but I want to ask you a question, would you play an event like that? If I we can find some people who like that idea I guess it won't be hard to set it up. So do you wanna play it?

[Silly_Savage]

I would personally love to try this out.

If someone planned out an event for this, I would definitely attend. It would be especially interesting as an infantry-only event. Squad tactics would be critically important for survival, as would inter-squad communication. Mumble would be icing on the cake.

[dtacs]

Would be interesting to see how it plays out, especially considering people would need transport back to the carrier etc. if they wanted to change roles

+1

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

Well its the old idea that some players (including some DEVS) has wanted for years now.

The lack of the deployable spawn-point-system, would change the game as we know it. It would be more suitable for the hardcore-realism PR player and more boring for the hardcore-gamer PR player.

It could change a lot in the game as we know it today. Both in terms of how the squad move and fight and how the medic in the squad, play the game.

I think a 1-life game system would introduce specific wounds, like for instance leg-wounds, arm-wounds, head-wounds and so forth.

In the end it could actually force the PR map-makers and coders to make connective maps and put a great more emphasis on logistics, roads and map-connective roads/paths. Thus also more emphasis on the CO function it self.

Actually, I think PR will go down the 1-life road. However, it can still take years before the game deploy there.

[Zpoilt]

Simple solution to one life in PR, is set the spawn times after you die, to 9999999. This would have to be done with some type of punishment script, like when you kill a civie, you get a longer spawn time. Apply that to everyone when they spawn in the first time.

For vehicles, nothing respawns. And limit the tickets to like 32 + whatever the vehicles account for. And then add in last flag ticket bleed just in case there are less than 32 players and a few tickets are left over.

Remove the epipen from medics, and make wounded time 0.

Then there's no need for people to be kicked or banned. And perhaps someway you could be removed from your squad when dead and put into the freelook mode thats at the start of a training server match. (where you can fly around and observe) Although that could cause some cheating if people used 3rd party voice software. So, I guess you could just stare at the black screen for half an hour.

Seriously, DO IT!

But removing wounded time and revives seems unnecessary. Setting wounded time to 99999999 could be an idea. If you were shot to the face by a random bullet or something it would not be completely over for you. Shot while driving a truck, too bad. But it would not hurt the realism too much being able to rescue the wounded ones in an infantry squad or whatever.

[WaRRioR-StaTuS]

It would be like Socom U.S Navy Seals was back when everyone was mature and used teamwork for ps2

only much smaller maps would be needed lol

[hobbnob]

I know noobs have a system for duplicating the 1 life effect, it's called RAGEQUIT

Personally I don't think this is a good idea, and I highly doubt it will be implemented by the devs, just my opinion
