What would like to have in ss2

[Free Styler]

Well considering ss2 is not out yet,and not a lot of details on the game play has been published.

I'm just wondering what would you like to have added or removed from the previous release serious sam the second encounter.

Now i'm not talking about netcode and all.I'm really talking about gameplay.

Well...

I for one will state what i would like to see.Or have seen if it's not the case.

First in every addicting game there has to be a way to go faster either it be a racing game or a fps game.I dont know if either of you played mario kart64 but mario kart 64 was a addictive game because you could have boosts.Holding R and making left right left right with the joy pad.
would give you the opportunity to go faster.Making loads of em in this game would make a difference if you were going to win or lose.


Now this aspect in serious sam the second encounter was partly covered with the knife usage.When pursuing someone and taking the curves and all you actully felt like if you were racing a car.


Well to add a bit more of that feeling in to sam.Going faster while doing ledge jumps or any olther special move would make the game play very fun.People who tend to camp would get irradicated by pure quickness.I thiink a few games like quake and painkiller have that in them.

Rocket laucher minimum splash and slower firering would bring this weapon in the top guns


2 different kinda knifes ,one for fragging and one for air control.

hit scan for head shots and so on.

similar kinda shotty and single shotty.

Any way to have a advantage on your opponents when making technical moves wich ever they may be...more in movements would be good.

Post your ideas or opinions

I would like to see auto taunts added, that way players may develope thicker skins to it.

The overall game itself is ok, most of the improvements need to come from the engine.

also, make more of a ballance in skin tones, or add a brightskin feature to help get rid of the shadow dwellers.

Cannon = rediculous! tone it down

My son has Sam 2 on Playstation and it has homing missiles.

I think they would be great in a frag match. You could have some sort of indicator if you had a missile locked on to you. It would be huge fun trying to avoid them or by throwing something up to confuse them.

that's cool i wonder if they are going to make it different from the console games they have made.Hopefully it al be a original for pc only.

Speed is definitely an important aspect, i think that strafe-jumping and/or bunny hopping should definitely be implemened into ss2 allowing for more experienced players to have the advanage.
Weapons should probably be kept the same, i think that the rate of fire on the rl is fine, but it should be increased on the shotguns.
I think that one knife is fine...
Hitboxes i would leave out because it would make the game less enjoyable imo.

Well....i accept your opinion but hit scan would be nice for sniper usage or single shotty usage.Imagine shooting from super far away with single shotty and hitting head shots.Now there you need experience to accomplish that.

Rocket laucher is good but shoots to quick.The actual speed of the rocket your shooting should be faster.


I forgot a few things i wanted to mention.

Quicker weapon change .
And the one that would of been so awseome if implemented or maybe it was.

combo rocket to shut gun or sniper.

But a combo that can be used frequently.

Anyways all in all i'll accept whaterver is delivered since im not making the game and i know the work implemented is those games is amazing.

I respect there work and will play the game has long has i like it.

[Die Hard]

Whats the latest on its release date, does anyone know?

[Nitro]

Get more hardcore-looking pistols
Keep the rocket jumps possible but add it to SP too
double jumping makes you go super high
more hardcore looking knife
minigun overheats after a few seconds
allow players to have colorful name tags
TURNING OFF FRIENDLY FIRE AND IT ACTUALLY DOING THAT

[FUS1ON]

The game, weapons, characters, story line, etc ... were fine for the most part.

My list is short to what would make Sam a success:
1) A smooth working netcode that will support well in excess of 10 players.
2) Fix it to where custom maps rotate like they should. The same old maps get boring as hell.
3) Have a auto-download file feature for files that a player doesn't have installed yet.
4) Add in some Team modes of play like Team Deathmatch. This will add competition and bring clans to this game.
5) Most important of all, if there is a bug with the game, Croteam has to fix it ASAP and don't promise us crap that they can't deliver on. Albeit they are larger, companies like ID and Epic, update their games often and with regularity.

The lack of these is what helped to kill Sam!

[Goober]

Don't forget server side settings, like being able to turn off particular weapons (cannon) and power ups.

rocket jumps depend on the amount of damage a player takes. try not playing SP in easy mode...

[SHOTGUNmaniac]

Well, In my personal opinion, certain members of this community are gonna ruin it like they already have with SS....

As soon as they join the game, "lag", "spam", "rocketwhore", Knifer", "pupboy", "smurf", "my ping was higher than yours"........

There is no fun in this game any more, regardless of anything croteam do..... Certain peeps will always try to change the way the game has been made..... There is no fun here anymore......

The remaining people that play this game are the ones that have already accepted that they wanna play with a shotty and not bitch when they get splatted by one of Jims rockets (no offense matey....lol.. i enjoy when your around).......

SS2 will not be the success it is intended to be if we as a community, bring our "rules" into it.... Ive spokje to many new peeps that have only just started playing, they play on private servers because people "bitch" about not using this, not using that.......

I had a great game with a young girl and her dad on there server, yes they took every pup going, so what..... you hide and wait until it wears off.......

Iff ss is anything to go by, I will definately not be purchasing SS2.... Not unless certain people here change there Bitchy attitudes towards online gaming........

People, Croteam made this game, not us! Play it for damn fun, and dont ruin it, if you dont like the game play then leave....... Dont join a server and whine about lag, just go!.......

For gamings sake, dont ruin ss2 like everything else has been ruined!

[FUS1ON]

Sorry to take the thread off topic for a sec. Don't have such a negative attitude just yet Shotgun. If the game is good, new people will buy it, the game will grow and before you know it, the no life trolls will be outnumbered and hardly even noticed. The server admins need to pay better attention to this crap and start banning them, but some of them just don't care. In the big games like Quake and UT, the little ratbasturds are hardly a bump in the road compared to all the normal players. I know it's hard for some of you to ignor, but the more attention you give them, the more they will do it.

[SHOTGUNmaniac]

Hey there shogun.,..... Guess im just basing the realease of a new game on the basis, of the idiot portion that play ss........

[Free Styler]

Well shotgun maniac i agree that what you said is bad in itself and all

but....

I get more of what your talking about playing utk4 then serious sam.

like shogun said i think normal players will just overcome these people.

I for one never said to anybody you use a pup or this or that.OK maybe i whinned here and there a few games but never made it a regular thing.

But everybody does it one time or the other.

Your tired and your pisset heck it happens to people.Nobodys perfect.

But if these people make it a routine day per day habbit.

then that is there problem.


I usally dont even awnser to people making these remarks in utk4.

I use to not awnser in sam but sometime i just can"t help myself to replie once in a while.

But that"s not what will make the difference if sam2 is a succes or not imo.

[Ra\/en]

I think that the servers should rotate, that way we could all start at the same time once the next map loaded. furthermore... what shogun said.... i would still be playing the game if custom maps loaded and rotated frequently. besides.. how hard is it to get an autodownload for the map?

oh yeah.. and support from croteam is essential. i think the patch after 1.07 that we were all waiting for is a prime example of this.

i like the game, but its got so many bugs.....

[Alexis SC430]

Oh come on Pure, Auto-Taunts are lame... I always yell at the dorks that forget to disable them in UT.

The best thing to add to SS2 would be that automatic map download thing that they have in UT, so we can actually play some different maps for a change. At the very least, I hope those borderline retarded, lazy, crackhead freaks at Croteam add a connection timeout so if someone tries to join without the map it doesn't perpetually fill up a friggin' slot, for Christ's sake.

The question was in-game lex, not game engine. hell, why not add so everyone can stay in the server when maps change :rolleyes:


when you yell at them, do they hear you???? :o
