Kurtz Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Right now, we all can see what weapon killed something, and whu pulled the trigger. "Kurtz killed someone's vehicle with beam weapon". It would be more interesting if we only got to know that someone's vehicle was killed, but not who did it and with which weapon. When you know which weapon was used, you can draw conclusions as to which vehicle was used. A related issue: when using the Hurricane, it usually says "plasma mortar", but not when shooting at turrets, even if I fire directly. It says "artillery" when killing turrets.

yurch Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 The "plasma mortar" message is used when the target is killed through a direct penetrating hit from the round itself, with any of the artillery weapons. "Artillery" is from a kill through shrapnel. I've gotten "plasma mortar" before when shooting turrets. Having who killed what is okay for now, as it is at least useful for our testing purposes and for 'friendlier' games. I can see this being optional later. Usually it's very apparent what's shot you.

Kurtz Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Different 'fog of war' settings is perhaps the way to go. In the foggiest setting, you may not even know (immediately) that a team member is killed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
