Hello all, in this long post I will include some major Suggestions for RO. By no means should you think they are all good and should be added. If I include things which are already in the game I do apologise. Well then, were to begin…….?
I think almost all people who play RO would say it is a fun enjoyable online game with some fantastic ideas put into it. In this post I will not be covering the good point of the game but only the bad points…not that I think the game is no good. I think all people will agree (even the makers) that the game has some big issues! So here are my ideas……I will do them in sections.
The game has much good team play put into it but is still in many eyes a go do it yourself game. Here are some things which could make the team play better….
Commander: Yes, he is there, he can do things but dose he command his team? I don’t think he doses much, you might but I don’t! I think the commander should take more charge of his team. Maybe we should copy a bit of BF2….
1) The commander should have an option to type messages in a different colour so all the team can see the message clearly and understand that it is coming from the commander.
2) The commander should be able to place markers on the map. These could include arrows, circles, and squares and so on. When these are placed by the commander, sound should play to all the other players warning them there are new objectives (you may prefer that a commander can only do this when next to a communication device e.g. a radio).
3) When the commander is next to a radio he should be able to say special communications like:- we need more anti-tank or request artillery.
4) I think that instead of having the commander first come first served he should get voted in by the team or maybe random selection.
Team split into squads: Should we be a lot more like BF2 and have the team split up into teams?
1) On joining a server/changing map you should instead of choosing a weapon and away you go you should choose a squad. You still choose a weapon type and but you should be in a squad so you would go round as a team (this would make people with a e.g. MG get supported by there team more).
2) The first person to join a squad becomes the leader. (if you don’t like this it can be changed e.g. once the squad is full the leader is randomly selected or the leader of each squad is voted into power.
3) The squad leader should be able to get a few more voice commands e.g. attack here. He should be able to place markers and stuff on the map which only his
4) Squad should be ale to see. He should be able to talk to his squad in a different colour text which only his squad can see.
5) All squad members should be able to use a different colour text which only there squad can see.
6) All squad members should be able to spawn with there squad leader (even if he is in a taxi)
7) Just like there is for people there should be tank squads (e.g. all the people in one tank are a squad).
8) The squad leader should be able to lock squads so no more people can join it.
Spawn Points: Here are some suggestions for spawn points.
1) Each time you get a capture you get to spawn at that destination (this means you don’t have to fun all the way from base to hold the position.
Artillery: This may be better…..
1) The commander should also be able to send down a smoke barrage by request. This would help in situations like tank battles and at one end of a bridge.
Commander Extras: If you choose to go with the squad ideas theses should be added on to the commander.
1) The commander should be able to give each squad separate orders.
2) The commander should be able to speak to every squad in privet.
3) The commander should be able to praise and insult squads.
Rag doll for guns: When you die your gun falls to the side of you. The gun should be changed to the same rules as rag dolls so when you get shot your weapon falls don realistically.
Ammo to stay put after death: At the moment ammo fall out of your holder’s when you die, this should not be as it would be strapped to you body in pouches.
All guns to be displayed on your back: All weapons should be displayed on your back, these include MG, panzerfust, Anti-tank rifle, grenades and all others.
Prone to be fixed: Prone looks bad and should be cleaned up. (This is a major problem)
Animation to be fixed: While models are not running they look terrible! This is one of the bigger issues in the game and should be fixed now!
MG when prone and mounted to look better: While looking at an MG on the floor being moved by a model, the movement looks jerky and wrong.
This is all I will include for now. None of the above should be taken 100% word for word, try and think of it as in general.
I may update this post so keep looking!
Updates
1) I now think it is a good idear to have points by staying with the MG in the game so you defend him (e.g. this would be done by staying near him for a long time) This way you can't just resupply him for points all thought resupplying is a good game option.
Have fun, Jmodels
