Topic: Slicing

Sorry if this has been mentioned before. I did a couple searches and didn't find anything.

I played an online star wars game where I did a lot of slicing of weapons and armor for people.  I'd be very interested in seeing similar things in FS. big_smile

Instead of Weapons/Armor you would be slicing consoles that control doors/forcefields.

If you locked vehicles like another thread has mentioned, a way to get around some of the pitfalls would be to allow the enemy vehicles to be sliced and used.

I'd also like to see some bases be required to be sliced to be captured.

--It would be something like a welding torch that you would "use/attack" on control panels or computer consoles.  After 30 secs of using the tool on the panel you get your desired effect. Door opens, Shield turns off, The CP can now be capped, etc..

I just think that this type of thing would add a needed depth to the game that really should have been added to BF2142 with the nice looking control panels.

Re: Slicing

Lots of nice ideas popping up in this forum. Slicing is good idea it requires more teamplay again, which is positive thing. You may need some special unit to your squad? It's cool if every player class could really have their own usefull "special abilities". smile

Re: Slicing

I figure it would just be a "slicing tool" that any class could select as a piece of equipment. Or it could be a Recon/Engineer only if it was too much having everyone running around with it.

If you have the 4 classes like bf2142 you might be able to setup each class with a different aspect of slicing.

Recon - Ability to Slice Enemy Force Fields.
Assault - Ability to Slice Enemy Capture Point Command Consoles.
Engineer - Ability to Slice Enemy Vehicles.
Support - Ability to Slice Enemy Turrets.
