"Grouping" of people

Postby Pie » Sun Mar 05, 2006 4:34 am

Ok, i have finnally made a subject title that is NOT silly. ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!!!


Ok, basicly it works like this. You are an avarage newspawn, who has just spawned in the midst of a battle. you look to the people list, and find it looks like this.

General
bowman
bowman
bowman
bowman(You get the idea.

a different General
Bowman,(yea...

So, you notice that there are 2 groups in this place, bothe heavily armed, and they are currently attacking each other withe vollys of arrows. And then, THE SWORDSMEN CHARG!!! the swordsman that were charging each other meat each other faster than the people who just came running at somone who was way back at the other group unstead of running at him.

So basicly, it works like this. You have the option to group near somone, the first 3 or 4 people there will be the closest to that person, and then people just fann out, and such, and some people are just grouping next to people who are grouping to the general, and like that. When you are groupt next to the general, there is a posability of anny arrow that is shot at him to hit you unstead, there is more of a posability to hit people near the general than afar, thus protecting him by being a group around him. If you choos to attack somone that is out of your group with a sword, there should be a delay of somthing, somthing should be givin up, becous you would have had to charge the other group and start attacking. If you would use a bow, than there would be no delay or tax of anything, exept that you might not hit your target. As for talking, it still works the same, everyone can hear you talking, or it could bethat only the people close to you can hear you. either one.

And also, when somone is spawned, they would have no group, and then would speak up, and you know, blah blah blah.

Things that would group sertain people.... projects that you all are participating on, manual grouping,(you know, pressing the button to group with that person) or if you are attaking somone, you will be grouped with that person.

When somone charges somone in a group, it should say "you see a man in his 20's charging your group" and that man is defenitly attaking, that is the only way you would see that mesage. other than that, you would just see that a man in his 20's is joining your group, and then, there still is the delay of moving frome group to group.

Also, you should have to be in the same group as somone to whisper to them, or drag them, or harm them(unless your using a bow, if you are, then there is just a percent chance of missing.)

There should also be a new thing to say, like, you should have the option to just talk to your group, unstead of just yelling away.

Also, when you join a group with somone, you are as far away as you came in. Such as, if you are trying to wisper to somone with 10 other people grouped around him, then it should be either 1, there would be a posability of being overherd, or 2, there would be no way to wisper to him. Also, if you are grouped with somone, and are in the top 5, you have the posability of just going up and stabbing him andthen fleeing without anyone noticing, that is if there is a group of above 15 around him.

Also, if you were leaving the same building as another person, you would be temporarorly grouped with him/her.

Posibly if you were collecting the same resourse as somone els, you could be grouped withe her or him untill his or her project is finished.

you should have to be in the same group to give somthing to somone, unles you wanted to throw it, of course.

Whew, there are alot of other simulations.. lets see... any other ones...

if you enter a building, a road, a town, or a vihikle with another person(if you ore him havent moved since you have enterd the place)

i think that about sums it up.

Exept my reasons. Implumenting this would add a sertain depth to cantr, addig the posabilitys of secrets being herd, of demonstrations, of assasinations, and of course, it adds a reason to have bows over steel whepons, and one against it of course....my suggestion just ROKS!!! Comments? questions? nuclear boms?

I believe grouping has been suggested before and rejected. I'll take a look.
