I would like to propose a new faction. This would be a peaceful faction. They would have no guns, no CVs, and only one building to spawn from. However, they have access to both sides' vehicle factories, so they can fill them up with vehicles to try and stop the war. Also, if they are shot, the faction that shot them will lose money. Comments, opinions, etc.
emmm, and how would this help the game exactly. No offense, but i don't like this idea at all :-/ What will they be called? "The middle faction"? I can imagine how crap it would be when you see someone in white uniform strolling into your VF and blocking it with jeeps and start preaching on how war is bad.
One class should be able to carry around a boombox with a tape deck blasting Rage Against the Machine. :D
They can execute the zap brannigan defense to a T! maybe.... maybe they could have repair tools, only the repair tool can't decon anything.
They should be able to chain themselves to either side's CV when the enemy is trying to nuke it, and if the enemy nukes the CV the news outlets outproportion the story and enrage the citizens of both sides and they start protests while smoking pot at the same time to overthrow the government and make Jimmy Hendricks the president.
Turn the spectator team into the hippie faction. Since spectators are usually people who hate the map being played anyways
My only question is this....what is the motivation to play as a non warrior faction...in a war game....so you wander around the map putting flowers in the barrels of enemy soldiers, magically averting any bullet that comes your way? Would you then go and drive 1960's VW Buses wearing extraordinarily distracting colors, all the while your ulterior motives of world domination via hippie movement is achieved? So their only mode of attack is to through flowers at you (of hit you with the van...) and their only vehicle is an old VW bus. Wait...instead of concussion grenades you would give them weed, self induced concussion grenades....then you can open shops that give out free supplies of newly released, mind altering drugs and go on peach marches into the enemy base.... Actually I lied...this is sounding kinda fun...[/dry humor]
zomg you fools! THIS IS ALREADY IMPLEMENTED. just click the faction choice between brenodi and auto assign.
Spectator can't stop the battle though, all they can do is protest against the war. Or give the other faction hint where the CV is.
Awesome idea... Make all the spectators... BIRDS! You can shoot the birds! Funny as hell... make them parrots or something... like that retarded bird from Aladin.
