. Has it been announced how long the public Beta will be then? Surely that doesn't mean that the game is relatively close to release does it or will the public Beta be an actual Beta too?
Level 3
I know LBI are busy people but i would really like to hear some answers to some genuinely brilliant suggestions some people have had in these forums to improve the game.
Suggestions such as:
Upgradable buildings - Commanderofin
http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/Public-Star
Absolute genius and something im genuinely shocked isnt included in Starhawk. A proven gameplay component of existing tower defence games and a clear improvement to Starhawk to make the gameplay even richer and deeper. And will also give an actual use for rift once the 32/32 strucure limit is maxed.
I almost won't be able to believe it if this doesnt make it in because that is total genius, something Starhawk is designed for and something that would massively improve the game. It works on every level. I will never understand the thinking behind this if building upgrades dont make it into the game
32/32 display - Displaying permanently on screen the structure limit.
A simple improvement. Trying to build a garage when grabbing the flag when suddenly realising, oh, sorry, cant build that! A simple adjustment that would remind the whole team of the building limit so that its not exceeded
Points for flag taxi's/ drivers - A massive point i feel, that was a big problem in warhawk.
Its completely injust that someone can be so helpful, drive to the enemy base, pick up the flag carrier, drive the flag carrier the whole length of the map avoiding all sorts of hell, only for the flag carrier to to get out and score all the points. What has he done? Grabbed a flag, pressed X once, and then pressed X again to get out the car and score? The driver NEEDS to get rewarded for his effort as really, he was the one who earnt that capture and it seems completely injust to get NOTHING for the troubles.
Points for distance travelled towards base with flag - Ever travelled the length of the map with the flag only to be killed at the end?
A score system needs to be put in place to give this person a reward. Too many times have i seen it where a flag carrier has brought the flag the whole map only to be killed at the end. Then some nobody grabs it, runs 2 feet and scores all points and grabs all glory.
No. Just no. Another important point to be addressed.
knife balancing - Many, many people on these forums have questioned the knife and its problems, At the very least an response to the issues would be satisfying.
------------------
Many people have put forth genuinely brilliant suggestions, but the suggestions go unanswered. And its hard when i feel these peoples suggestions would genuinely improve an already good game.
I'll leave it with you guys though. Hope the game development is going well

Agree with all of this TBH
The upgradable buildings I could see becoming available in a patch because I reckon LBI would want people to get use to the base game as it is. They introduced Game changing weapons/equipment in WH so wouldn't be surprised if they did it here as well, but I doubt they'd do this on release.
The assist points thing has always been something I hated about WH. A game that requires Teamwork to get the flag yet teamwork isn't rewarded points wise. Need to take note of what DICE did with BF3 where you get points for practically anything you do to accomodate different styles of play within the game.
