i had an idea for a bad flag called the Humiliation Flag . it turns your tank into blinking rainbow colors , your bullets are pink heart shapes , and your tank makes squeaky noises .... it's meant to draw enemy attention to your tank and make u a more visible/annoying target ;P but i dropped the ide...

i like TD's modded idea better ... a ghost observer tank .. that jumps an uses the same controls as a regular tank , but doesn't distract(is invisible to regular players) or add lag for other players . u can also have fun playing against other ghost observers in your own private lil war . an i agree...

neet idea =)

and mayb your tank should recoil alil bit too after u shoot it ;)

ok i kinda got this idea from BinarySpike ..cept its alil different . its just like regular CTF , cept when u get killed u respawn back as a Ghost tank . complete with the eerie sound effects ;) a ghost tank acts just like a phantom zoned tank . u can only come back as a regular tank if : a) u kill ...

ok that is neet ;)

what about just typing to some1 to plz move their tank ;P


..or how bout a keyboard button u can push to make your tank "solid" for a few seconds so u can push/shove some1 outta the way?


=P

personally i would accept an "oops" if i was tk'ed . depends alot on who the teammate is ...but normally i wouldn't view it as flippant or facetious remark . i sometimes type "oops" when i accidently tk . usually an "oops" followed by a "sry" . to mee , "...

i thought i seen this idea before ..somewhere here in the forums ...

deja vu iz creepy sometimes ...


=P

HTF is alot of fun . mee an many others have played it before .

regular HTF (every1 on the same team , trying to capture the same flag) has been defined and is what most people play .

it's been around for awhile . mainly as an unofficial improvised game mode ...

how bout a BigBossMonsterTankFight? lol i actually got this idea when i was beta testing v2.0 and was on 1 of trepans' test maps where there were these large map objects that looked like exact replicas of bzflag tanks ..only much much bigger . alot of video games have like a big boss monster u have ...

o okies i like that idea too CBG i've seen landmine objects in bz v2.0 that can blow u up when u touch them and they're kinda neat =) mayb they can also be visible on radar as very tiny red squares? so they won't be too haphazardly dangerous . IIRC , there was an arcade version of battlezone where t...

/usr/bin/vi are u a keyboard player? just wondering ... i am a keyboard player an have the same problem . it might be due to a conflict with the arrow keys if you have them binded to the same controls for your tank . so when i needed to chat to a specific player , what i did was go to the options me...

i like the idea of an immunity (IM) flag . u are immune to your teammates bullets , and your bullets cannot hurt your teammates . also u are immune to dieing indirectly by genocide (if your teammate gets hit by a genocide bullet) or if you get hit by geno you die but not your teammates . you can sti...

balancing realism with alil sillyness is what makes a good game . too much realism and the game gets boring an loses fun . too much sillyness and the game becomes ridiculous . going thru other tanks , seeing tanks jump and fly ...pretty much throws any sorta realism out the window ;) however , in v2...

/vote maybe

i kinda liked winkys' old callsign (u will always be winky to mee ;-)

another good HTF tune . listen while u play =D

with the large bevy of new bad flags in the upcoming release , would it be better to have a split reload/bad flag counter on the overhead display? instead of the current overlapping counter? the split counter could still be made small(compact) and not take much display space . and the counter would ...

kk =)

k i hate to nitpick esp. since the devs have been doing a wonderful job so far =) not sure if this bug(?) has been brought up already ..but i did notice this little detail on maps with a mirrored or "flooded" field... when u move backwards (reverse) in a burrowed tank u can see through wal...
