    Video Update 8 - Choose the THMPR Laugh

    I liked the third one, but I can see I'm in the minority there.

    Can we talk about boob armor?

    Perhaps, in the name of comfort, force fields could be implemented in the female chestular area. Then they could wear what ever they wanted and not have to worry about comfort AND protection.

    Handguns?

    I've never been a big fan of sidearms in Firefall and I'm still not (I reserve the right to change my mind once I've seen the beta version of Ember). If the mechanics are the same as Firefall, we'll have two weapons to use: One main and one secondary. This, to me, is plenty. If for some odd...

    How many weapons can we have at once?

    I'm a big fan of large doses of reality in video games, without interfering with the fun factor. So unless we're going to be walking around with large weapons racks welded to our frames, I opt for two weapons and some small auxiliaries. Oh, and when you switch weapons, the one you're not using...

    I need another game to play while we wait.

    Nah, I still play MWO, particularly when there's an event going on. I've kind of settled into two game modes there: Quick play with my Kodiak armed with four LB10X ACs, or a faction scouting match with my Stormcrow armed with nine small lasers. It still makes me quiver when I'm closing in for a...

    [2.2.1] Change how forums look with Em-8ER Forums Dashboard™ addon!

    You're implying that there's something that needs to be improved in the Ember forums. It's even better than the old Firefall forums were, and I thought those were unique and very user friendly. Still though, we all need hobbies. More power to you!

    I need another game to play while we wait.

    Yes, thus my asking for a game or two in the interim. Any game will do. It doesn't have to be a shooter. I'll play almost anything if it's interesting. What's that one where you play a super hero? League of Something or Other? Is that any good?

    I need another game to play while we wait.

    So while Ember gets built, I need another game to download and play. Something free and fun. I'd ask for something grind-free, but that doesn't exist any longer. Any ideas? Not Path of Exile. I'm sick of it, and I hate the randomness of everything in it.

    Not fond of the name of the alien species

    As long as it's not SHIH-TZU. Refer to this thread for an explanation.

    We're going to be warring against WHAT??

    Shih-tzus? I don't understand. Why would we want to go to war against Shih-tzus?? What have they ever done to the human race, I mean besides make us go "Awwww!!!"? Shih-tzus are cute and cuddly!! Honestly, I don't want to shoot them and blow them up!! Who would?? For the love of...

    Milestone Timeline.

    Considering that, as far as I know, the decision on whether or not to re-make Firefall into Ember has not even been made yet, it's probably a bit premature to have a milestone timeline. IF the game makers undertake the task, then sure, let's have a milestone timeline.

    Death and respawn?

    It was only an example. So how does that make me feel guilty? What do I care as a player that clone #1 dies? Clone #2 steps in with all of clone #1's possessions, memories, etc. etc. and the game rolls on without a hitch, as though nothing ever happened. There's no penalty there, so why should...

    Death and respawn?

    Well if guilt is what you're after and you REALLY want a burden of death , how about a death penalty? I'm not talking about merely the time it takes to re-spawn and get back to the battle. I'm talking about a real penalty, like a loss of XP might do. That's if guilt and burdens are what you are...

    Death and respawn?

    Agreed, as long as the method of revival does not include standing over the downed individual and waving the hand in a "Come on, get up!" sort of fashion. To my knowledge, no one has ever been brought back from the brink of death using that method. It might be better if perhaps our battle...

    Death and respawn?

    I'm of the mind that we DON'T die. Instead when near death and incapacitated, our battle frames perform an emergency teleport to the nearest........whatever. Way-station, friendly watchtower, etc., where we are healed by a crack team of EMTs back to a certain percentage of max health, ready to...

    Regarding recoil

    You are correct. I did mean 50 cal.

    Regarding night vision

    While I can certainly understand the argument of realism vs. fun, I have to fall on the side of realism. If I am in command of a bunch of soldiers, I'm going to send them out on night missions with the best equipment, and in my mind that does not include a Ray-o-vac flashlight from Walmart. As...

    Regarding night vision

    Either. Or. Both. Any. If we have to use flashlights, I opt for floodlamps. Our battle frames were crystite powered after all, which was akin to nuclear, and should be able to power a few meager light bulbs with no problem.

    Regarding recoil

    While the physics of said projectile are true, it is also true that these physics can be mitigated by the additional use of physics and science, which I must point out are in existence today. This is not future technology that has yet to be dreamed of. Anti-recoil technology is being used right...

    Regarding night vision

    The game needs real night vision, not flashlights. We were piloting futuristic battle frames..............and using flashlights to see in the dark????? 'Nuf said.
