Jetpack?

Postby CDS-101 » Mon Mar 27, 2006 8:34 pm

I was wondering if there is a possibility the Jetpack could be incorporated into the DMS mod?
At a cost of about 2-5 credits you would simply start every round, during the course of a map, with the Jetpack.
Enabling you to move around faster, jump away from incoming missiles, hurry to bombdefusals etc.

Im not sure about disadvantages, if there are no obvious ones the price could be set higher, you could start every round with say 75 hp or maybe the number of jumps could be limited.

The disadvantages could come from the jet pack. Real world jet packs only last for a few seconds and are VERY VERY VERY heavy.

So you would have say:
- 30 seconds (or less) of fuel.
- Walk/Run at 30% (or less) of your max run speed. (The jet pack speed would be several times more than normal max run speed).
- Could take bullet damage and stop working (or blow up as Maks says).
- Hands would be occupied by the controls so you could not shoot and fly.

Don't you need like a complete suit for a jetpack so you won't be burned by the flames of the exhaust? So in addition you would have to buy a flame armor to not get hurt (won't get killed for it otherwise it totally has no purpose but suicide)

If im correct the "Rocket Belt" uses peroxide as its fuel source which no combustion takes place just the expulsion of pressurized peroxide and they wore a fiberglass corset for safety.

The only problem is that this doesn't really seem to be worth the credits... Walking super slow aside from 30 seconds, not being able to shoot while flying... I think you need to make this more worth the credits, meaning more advantages. Maybe have the option to shoot rockets with flying or something?

I wouldnt want it if i couldnt shoot while flying, that is the real joy of the jetpacks you can pick up in some maps, like csde_dust, the ability to swoop out of nowhere and start spraying or landing rockets from the RPG.
It could slow you down when you are not using it, it could stop you from buying grenades, it could explode if shot at properly (RL Physics aside).
Its not that important really, just an idea, i thought it could be easily implemented since the jetpack is already in the game, if its too much trouble just disregard it.
