Vehicles

[crusader18]

I think there should be attack and defence vehicles that fight soldiers and other vehicles.

[DaDigi]

Have there ever been any Tau'ri cruising along an enemy world in a Jeep?

Don't think so

[Dagr]

Nope but they do cruise along in hummers.

On a serious note how would these be used? Just another type of weapon or like motherships only less powerful?

[Zeratul]

more importantly... what other races actually uses vehicles? (spaceships not counted)

[crusader18]

all the races would have vehicles and they wouldnt be as powerful as a mothership.

[Zeratul]

could you give examples of non-spaceship vehicles among all the races?

[Sephiroth]

zeratul has a point, if you want vehicles give him some rough examples of each kind and some details of what they should be able to do, and how they should be used.

[repli**cator]

hmmm... how about

Tauri --- Hummer
Tollan ---
Asgard --- Thor's hammer (some kind of hovering vehicle?)
Ancient ---
Replicator --- Repli Ball (some giant ball formed by replicator blocks?)
Nanoti ---
Goa'uld --- Slave wagon (lol like horse driven wagon only the horses are slaves? wips included?)
SL ---
the ascended races are kinda hard... it'd be like and Advanced form of the vehicles??

[TacticalCommander]

what about m.s. upgrades like techs for them or something

1st: That has nothing do to do with this current suggestion of having vehicles implemented.
2nd: That has been suggested before viewtopic.php?f=13&t=85362

Back on topic
Vehicles are already in place as normal weapons
I know the Tauri have X 302's which are vehicles, in fact I'm sure they even have some kind of tank....and most races don't really have vehicles...

As for the Ancients vehicle name, you could just use Puddle Jumper.


So I vote no to this idea. I'm not going to change until I see a few things
1. How will the be implemented.
--Purchasing, how many
2. What will they do and how?
--Will they help in battle, if so how? boosting strike/defense, what?
3. Why does the game need it.
--If its because it will be something new/cool and exciting then state that and then detail a suggestion about how it is going to be cool and exciting, going back to 1 and 2.
4. How will it effect the game, how will it make the game better? Does it favor the big, small, big at first but later will be widely used by everyone?
5. already stated, but I'll state it too, names for all vehicles.

MS is a vehicle....but presented as a seperate entity than the weapons. Its a seperate power and category, weapons are part of attack/defense.

[TacticalCommander]

MS is a vehicle, but this thread is about making additional vehicles, not modifying the existing ones like the MS. Otherwise he would have named it as a suggestion for the MS.

After much consideration, I want a Cheetah for my pet.

[Dagr]

I'm just saying I don't feel we need more vehicles, lets worry about the ones we have. Although I do agree they should be in there own thread and sorry about the spam.

[Sephiroth]

HEY it says vehicles not BRAND NEW never thought of vehicles yes it may not be what you want to talk about but suck it up.

[Zeratul]

no spam in the future please...

[timetravlin13]

What spam...the deiscussion of the MS was saying it was a vehicle. This is a thread about vehicles. I was saying the MS was separate.
If vehicles are to be brought in, would they be a seperate entity or would the be just another weapon description. Thats the point I was trying to make.
If they are just another weapon description then who cares really, that will be cool for the first couple times you see it then back to did you get the naq and how much damage.
If the vehicles are seperate catagory in your build then this could be cool. Like having secondary weapons. Or the tech upgrades in quantum.

There is no specific discussion about what the vehicle is, which makes this whole thread spam. Lets specify what the discusiion is, lets work it out so that its worth talking about.

I have a additional idea. With vehicles you can get additional percent added to say raids. The more vehicle power you have the more capable you are of transporting captured UU.

You need a reason for the vehicles.
