Paints with Special Effects?!


Recommended Posts

Paints have effects, everyone knows that. Protection against weapons, such as railgun and shafts, yep, common knowledge.

 

But what if we could bring this to a whole new level? What if you had a camouflage paint, and after you press a button, you get to be invisible for 5 seconds to 10 seconds? But your attacks will be visible though, so it would be good for long-distances. It would also take time to recharge the paint's effect.

 

Now let's have another idea. A Flame Paint! when activated, it can cause burning damage to a tank that you touch, and the effect can last for (    )  seconds. A Frost Paint can cause people to go slower, though not as slow as being freezed by the turret. 

 

Now another inspiring paint! The Tar Paint! When activated, it leaves a trail of sticky tar behind it, and tanks will be forced to go slowly in the sticky mess. It can help in flag battles, but the tar may wear off in seconds.

 

These are my suggestions for now. I put some time into thinking them, and I know although tank won't even consider this, I hope you can help give some ideas or suggestions.

The control button can be decided by you, I guess. maybe "d" or "f" or "g".

 

It won't be over powered, because the effects wear off in a few seconds, so it won't cause that much of a damage. Also, it takes a long time to recharge once you have used an effect. A reminder will pop out when you can use your paint effect again.

Who knows, we might just test the ideas in the some kind of test server.

I got an idea!

Why not make an open "Tanki Online Testing Ideas Servers"? Its like test server but a little different. You have to ask permission from someone who controls those servers, plus tell them your idea, and work with them to make these changes; then test it with other players.

This will need a lot of work and might take time to create those servers, and make your idea.

(Hint) The idea thats going to be tested must be liked by the players.

İ have another paint idea. "Artist paint" With this paint, if you touch another tank and if you press "v"(maybe other button), you got paint whick you touched :) You can wear opponents or teammates paint.

wow great idea! but maybe its better to set a time limit to wearing the opponent's or team member's paint.

1) Nope

2) Nope

3) Nope

4) Nope

 

Idea of effects, though: Yes

 

This would kind of nerf current weapons. By effects it would be better if a certain paint would make the tank glow with Dynamic lights turned on. Or may be paints like Zeus and Electra could give off some electric sparks (not affecting any opponent's health). I once thought of a paint, which I call "Neon" (I thought of this because of the "Infamous: Second Son" game) and by moving and having the paint equipped, the paint would give out some Neon light off, which would stay in the air for a few seconds. Or may be Microchip paint (Which I think devs have) could have little electrons running around the lines of the paint, which would look quite cool.

 

But I'm guessing TO would need to move to Unity before trying to implement this. Flash ain't gonna do nothing, or if it will it'll probably cause a lot of bugs or lags.

No. This would be OP. And let's keep it simple. Tanks and tanks only. No Flying thunder god paints. No freaking susanoo fiery power bull****. Just tanks. Please.

wow that's a great idea! But I'm not good at programming, so I won't know how to make test servers.......:(

You don't make a test server, you PM someone that's responsible for the test servers to give you a permission to log in those servers (They will make your nickname available and when its available you can log in. You and them will decide the time when to do it.) After that you tell them your idea and they do it. When they are done they show you if it is like how you wanted it to be, and if yes they will try the idea and see the results.

Test server? you're joking, right? hahahaha you don't just message someone and say "I wanna go to test server"

This is my idea, and no not message someone random, its like you message the mods who are responsible for it. 

It's **Creating the Ideas in the Servers** just for testing the results. 

 

I am not sure if they will like my idea, and I sure want to see if there are any negative things about it. ( I mean should these servers be created? or not?)

I will make a topic at Saturday about it, so stay tuned and make sure to comment.

 

Anyways sorry for going offtopic.
