topo and willy are doing a thing

I am pretty sure they were open to suggestions.

Alright then, I suggest:
-create diplomacy, economy and military concepts where you could raise armies and conquer other players' countries (soldiers would be bots so we could have battles of thousands in one map )
-put in nanosuits so we can have maximum speed, strength, armour, stealth, etc
-put in crack, hookers, cars, planes and CJ skins
-portal guns!!!1111
-dragons and cool powers
-zombies and aliens
-tanks
-pokemons
You get the point. I don't think that the purpose here is to see how many games can they make AoS-like. Blatantly ripping off ideas from other games is hardly a suggestion.

Hm. Fair point. Woah! Conflict! Following that logic, that means making this game an fps isn't good either

[Zekamalikyd]

being in a genre doesn't necessarily mean rip off every other game in it
or just every other game

My ideas from Counter strike, there's nothing wrong with it. Counter Strike's weapons are actual Real Life weapons, so basically getting the same guns from Counter Strike is basically the same from getting guns from Real Life. The only ideas that are not recommended are like the "Portal Gun" idea as it is only meant for the Portal Franchise but Counter Strike gets it guns from real life weapons so using them is no harm.

Still, they were aiming for WW2-themed. A deployable HMG should be the next thing, like what Mat^2 did with his own version of 1.0.

so because the weapon actually exists in real life, it can be used in every single game because it exists in real life
then tell me why most games don't have the weapons but slightly altered versions of them but still recognizable and with a different name? (or just a different name)
same goes with cars (go to any installment of the GTA series)

Because having something that is known by everyone is boring. Basically if you put something known by everyone into a game it's nearly the same as doing 'Gangnam Style' two years after it's release. So Game developers alter those weapons by reskining them or adding various new parts to them but don't alter them so much that they create a brand new weapon but an altered version. So, most games adapt real life versions of weapons and tweak them. On the 'name' part, it's simple. Most games takes place in fictional universes. Those universes are different from real life and hence, have their own names for products and objects. Take GTA: Vice City, for example. It takes place in a fictional place. There is no city called "Vice City" on earth. Even the city itself is adapted. It's based of Miami. The Conclusion: Most Games alter or change the names of the locations/weapons/vehicles in it because it takes place in a fictional universe where it does not follow real life. Or it alter's the items because it wants the player to have more fun in the game instead of using the occasional 'M4A1' or 'AK47' and make various versions of the said items.

yes and people yelling for more realism makes developers think "let's modify things that exist in real life because it's not realistic unless we change them"

no, it's because there are trademarks and they either pay to use them or get sued

and if it's fun to have fake things, why only change a couple of things? why not change everything?
and since those guns that are pretty much known by everyone, because of their good rep, everyone wants their m4 or ak in the game

Yes. But having a death ray in a WW2 themed game isn't good. I was just about to suggest having some sort of instant bunker/building builder-thingy where when you place in on the ground it builds a structure of your choice. It's a one time only use.

[Zekamalikyd]

unless that "death ray" plays a part in the game's lore

[Xpert658]

Death rays are a good idea.
In fact, I'd like to suggest a montage parody game/mode with that weapon and "realistic" weapons.

I was reading some of the earlier posts about how the smg ruined the game and I was wondering if anyone could just make a rifle only script .-.

Smgs don't actually ruin the game. It's just that the players dislike it because it's too Over Powered and the fire rate and accuracy is a little over the top.

well, cs fanboy.
The SMG is basically like most of the assault rifles and SMGs from CS, there are only 5 out of 19 that can 1tap if you aim at the head while wearing a helmet, so the rifles/smgs from CS are very similar to the SMG in AoS.
The 5 weapons are, the AK,AWP,SSG08(known as scout), and the Scar-20/G3SG1
And please no blocky CS, go play CS for yourself then like I do.

[MrHaaax]

For the sake of WW2, keeping the SMG isn't bad. But right now it's more like a PDW. Just lower its effective range and apply all the fixes the community had made.
