I have a wep suggestion that also ends up suggesting a new vehicle, so we'll see how this goes.

My idea is that a top-weapon is added (such as a pintel-mounted MG or rocket, with a 360-degree firing arc. Think humvee), and vehicles that could use that would be ones with open tops (Pickup?) as well as my vehicle idea, which was some kind of humvee-ish car which focused on defense but had the top gun and not much else.


What do you think?

Turrets have been suggested before, many times before. I think they are somewhere around page 286 of Sam's to-do book.

As for a Humvee, there is already the Buzzer.

Keep those ideas coming tho.

I think sam has said he likes the turret idea. I think he said he envisioned them being able to rotate their firing arc by 45 degrees per game turn or some such thing.

What about Car Sniper? Good for taking out targets inside their vehicles, like the Flechette. Long range weapon. Not particularly effective against vehicle armor.

Wedge/snowshovel like ram where the lower tip could slide below car and potentially flipping them over is the car is going fast enough.

The weapon is called The ROC. That's short for Rules Ordinance Counsel. It eliminates all pedestrians who are standing in the area beyond the sanctioned playing field as determined by the Rules Council & way-points of any arena it is aligned with. This is not a weapon available to characters but is designed to be used by arena / track owners to enforce their particular boundaries of any specific event.

Knock it off Rex........ You made your point in earlier posts....
You are spamming now bud..... The ONE person who can do anything about it is aware of your 'difficulties' with the last event you cited....

No need to kick them when they are down....

NO ONE but the track designer knows where the way-points are and asking track designers to vary the waypoints for certain events is..... well just not do-able since some of the designers are no longer playing.... Or don't show up often enough to suit your proposal.

one point the rules council, do not actually make the 'rules' they are there to discuss matters brought up by players they do not lay down set guide lines for the game

Not exactly true JD, I can modify them fairly easily. (And indeed, expanding them beyond the boundaries of the track does make good sense -- it simply wasn't part of the original design since the 'engine shutoff' code was a relatively recent addition).

I understand from previous posts on the subject of the RC that they don't actually spend time discussing "rules." But I also understand that *Sams* concept here (re: several articles linked to in gaming magazines online found in the side bar of these pages) is a community driven development of the game, and the RC is a large part of that.

No, ultimately it is *Sam*'s decision. He has seen what I have shown, what one player has done most certainly on one occasion and possibly more.

My main question to the community is to ask yourself what if everyone played the game that way? Some suggested I should have stopped racing and gone and killed him. Well, that would have been one ganger down I suppose, and my enjoyment of racing to win would have been removed. Or suppose we all decide to run that deathrace track (and maybe others too as I am sure it can be done) when no other player characters (PCs for short) are around to prevent it? Did we actually earn the benefits we gain by winning the event?

I work honestly in Dark Wind to gain what I can gain, skills, cars, fame, reputation, and the money needed to do it. In some events I am actually playing against other online players, in some events it would be in alliance with them. Is it fair play to know that some of my competition has got the powers they have because they found a way to gain those powers (skills, cars, et al) without having the same risks as everyone else?

If as you say, the RC has no authority or influence, then why discuss this further. Only *Sam* can make the choices that are going to made in this game. But again, I point out that it has been stated by him that he is building this world based on player interaction with his concepts.

You don't have to like me. You don't have to like my input. I'm not here to win any kudos from you or anyone by bringing up what I saw. I merely wanted to prevent what I saw from happening again because as I see it, that wasn't a deathrace. No race in it at all. Please keep in mind that Joel never even completed a single lap in the race yet was declared the only one to have won anything (and don't worry about my rank in it, I crashed terribly due to my own driving and I know that).
