Engine Start Stop button!


Recommended Posts

Many of the modern cars have that feature. When you press that button, the engine starts working. And why don't our tanks have this feature? Simple and funny idea that also will make the game more realistic. Let me explain you:

You have just joined the game. Your tank appeared, but you can't drive it. Why? Because you haven't started the engine yet! Simply, press and hold the "T" button for few seconds and your engine will be started. Wanna more engine sound? No problem, just hold the button more and listed to the gorgeous engine sound as much as you want!

And here's my idea. Please comment and share your opinions. Let's make the game more realistic!

Ok, i admit thats an awesome idea, but you have to factor in when you are in a XP Battle(Railgun Hornet vs Railgun Hornet). One of the keys to this is silence, and i aint talkin about the map. what if ur hiding from a rail and your right behind him but from a far distance he hears you. i already hear the regular running sound on our tanks  when tanks try to sneak up on me. And dont forget with the mass amount of tankers out there the sound would be insane. Not that simple, but still funny and a great idea. keep up the good work. :D

You won't have to re-start it each time you die, just once. You can also stop the engine if you want.

I would suggest that this be implemented after the respawning issue be fixed. Otherwise, tanks would respwan and the enemy would just have to drug and one-shot them, and they're dead.

but i thought u said it would stop your tank from moving, be a bit more clear in you post please. And u still have to factor in the sound.

That factor would make players think more before attacking like in real life.

And people, you will have to start your engine only when you enter the game.

I kinda like the idea, but there are good points above (like the spawn killing issue) that wouldn't allow the idea to be do-able.

 

Also, a better key would be "K", to stand for Key. "T" is used for typing in team chat and would be best to keep its function to one thing only.

Instead of engine, I think adding gear would be cooler. When you change to lower gear, your tank moves slower and creates less sound. And for the spawn killing thing, maybe tank should remain unattackable until we leave our base or hit space when we're in base? This also gives people chance to chat. (as long as they stay in their base and don't hit space)

In short map like sandbox. If enemy is taking your flag and you just got respawn then you have to wait to start the engine but by that time the flag would already been captured.

 

 

I like your idea but there are many cons if this idea gets implemented.

I don't like the fact that you have to do that to start driving your tank, but I do like the fact that you can let your tank's engines make sounds when you press it. It may seem funny, but perhaps you can make engine sounds to alert teammates? LOL. :lol:

You'll have to start your engine only once, when you first join a battle. When you get killed, no need to re-start.

doesnt it going to take away some realistic effect?

 

you were talking about realistic effects and now if tanks get destroyed you dont need to press button to start the tank after the re-spawn.

then i really dont see the point that why are we going to use the button to start the tank. lets just keep it as it is :)
