Split the Scientist into 2 separate classes:

Medic:
-Dispenser
-Poison
-Improved Pistol (does 15 base damage instead of 10, or maybe Desert Eagle)

Tech:
-X-669 (would kind of be like a spartan laser from Halo 3)
-Turret
-Current Sci Pistol

I suggest this because i think that the reason the Sci is OP is not because of any individual weapon, but because of the sum of poison and turret together. This would have to be offset by an addition of an SL class though.

Also, I think that 5 classes on each side should be the target, but that is a discussion for another time...

increase Goa'uld health to 200 hp. seriously, two direct hits from nades (or POISON) takes them to bloody 25 health (or 21)!!!! yes, Jaffa are supposed to be the main strike forces, that's why they're tanks. but, Goa'uld are supposed to be right up on the front lines healing the Jaffa!

also, input more vocal callouts, like "you're welcome", "nice shot/kill", and my personal favorite... "MUAHHAHAHAH!"

I had a thought for turret tweaking... just to make em a LITTLE less uber-deadly. a while back, I remember bc telling us on teamspeak that turrets were aiming RIGHT for the heads, and therefore EVERY shot was a headshot. (because, of course, AI can't miss) now, if we think about it, even though an AI might be flawless, machinery isn't! how about throwing in some body shots to go along with all those headshots, with the reasoning that the gears in the turret are getting worn down, so the targeting mechanism is a little off. the "body shots" could do 13 or 14 damage (20/1.5), and they would make turrets a LOT less annoying. (yes, i know that the SL will soon have a weapon able to take turrets out, but, you know... it's a thought!)

um, another idea... every class except Goa'uld and Ahs'rak has a potential to do 1.5 damage with a "critical hit", otherwise known as a headshot. although, i suppose you could say that Goa'uld do nothing BUT headshots, so they get 15 dmg/hit. i propose that ashrak get a hitbox that lets them do 1.5x damage as well... since they only have the option for 40dmg or full hp. i have heard recently that the so-called "side-stabs" are not a bug per se, but are now a "feature". so, let Ash'rak do 60dmg when they hit an opponent in the ribs, instead of a backstab/sidestab. or a different hitbox area, just the possibility for a 1.5x hit.

Introduce a fourth Class for the SGC (Medic)

Medic will have

1) Healing Canister
2) Healing Gun
3) Spray poison cloud Gun
4) Some sort of pistol

The Scientist will now have

1) Turret
2) Pistol
3) Possible a temp force field or cloak generator, or have the ability to repair items like Turrets or Canisters when they suffer damage?

This should help balence the SGC side as for one class to have poison, healing capabilities and Turrets seems to OP, it would also make the SGC Class more reliant on each other, just like the SL.

To balance "a" prospective medic class against the SL, I suggest the SL get a 'Torturer' class. (it's only apt that if you have a healer you must have a 'torturer')

Ideas

For skin: the torturer would be the least overdressed, think black leather and spiky hair.

Weapons/equipment:
- pain stick (Rod of Anguish)
When used on opponent it causes them to be paralyzed (no vision, no movement) and the only way to break free is if someone shoots the goa'uld torturer.
The eyes and mouth of the victim would belch yellow light!
To ensure the pain stick is not OP the torturer would have a very limited range to use it in (like the ashrak's knife).

- Re'Sko healing device
The irony of the torture class was that it also carried a healing device to heal flesh wounds, to perpetuate the torture period without the use of a sarcophagus.
Now it's use is more military as it also acts as a support class healing wounded Jaffa, Ashrak, and their Goa'uld leader.

(Having a secondary healing class I think would balance against the healing gun/dispenser of the medic class).

Ultimately if you don't like that you could just stick one of those upcoming zats in the torturer's hand and let them go wild. The advantage of the zat as a secondary weapon instead of the healing device is you don't have to figure out which class to give it to without making them too OP!

Please consider the medic/torturer 4th class, I think they would add a lot of fun to the game, and add a greater dynamic than just a 3 vs 3 contest.

It would be nice to be able to switch to first person view.
A selection of aim cursors would be kool.
Support for Xbox 360 controller too.
Also different heads to choose from so all characters dont look like clones.

Healing canisters heal everyone not just SGC.
SGC weapon clips to reload faster if less ammo was consumed.
X-669
Goa'uld Shield to not be disabled when self healing. *Power drains from the shield to the healing device

Increase corpse counts in some maps. *We could potentially lose our "T" rating

add daedalus map like in the soldier diary

give goa'uld a shockwave power like one that blasts the enemy crowding around you like the alt fire for the kinetic wave but only all around you. like the force repulse from star wars the force unleashed

sorry for the double post but will you guys make achievable armor for the ashrak please! it could be like 25 sci or commando bs (backstab) kills and you have to be the rank of secu

sorry if this has already been posted but could you guys make taks for SL. preferably the ashrak

1. Could you make it so when you put your cross hairs on an enemy it turns red but on an alie it turns green it would be very helpful to the Jaffa being the only long range SL class. Also could you guys make it so one of the classes has radar preferably Ashrak .I hate wandering around leonops then BOOM! sniper rifle bullet gos through my head . could you guys also make a plasma grenade like the one in Halo 3 (sorry for the many suggetions i dont have anything else to do .

Not sure if this has been suggested but could you guys make a remote bomb for the Ashrak.

Users may only post 1 suggestion per post and only 1 post until it gets deleted, failing to follow this rule will result in an infraction point.

This new rule starts now, if you already have a post in the queue, DO NOT post a new one.

I know I suggested it but I think it was deleted when the thread was recently cleaned up cause I sill don't see it in the various suggestions list.

Commando:

I know they're not a prime played character but those of us that do this is a decent I idea, and I don't have many but when I do it's usually Good.

When a Commando is still in one spot and scoped, now only in one spot and scoped. Lets say the Sudan cloaking deviced is used and he is invisable and cloaked. Now he's able to turn in that spot and stay cloaked but if he moves forward, back or side to side, the cloak is turned off. He cant be seen from a dstance when cloaked but if a SL is 5-10ft radius his cover is blown and his cloak is visable like an Ashrack. Also the cloak is automatically turned off when the Sniper rilfle is fired. This can be a certain rank to obtain this, or what ever you Devs see fit.

Now go Devs, Disscuss and argue. Thanks for reading!

King of the hill gametype for Leonops.
- make the capture point at the lowest point of the map, in the water area.

An option to not allow Players from your own team or your enemies team, to spectate you.

~lower the damage the soldiers grenade does to sheilded go'auld
~fix bug where alt-tabbing or lagg game (high-ping) can result in weird bug where black-plane vectors show up and prevent visiblity for more than a few feet.. (will post forum link asap)

Class Balance 1 of 8
"Jaffa" Class suggestion:

-Jaffa no longer have 2 flash/shock grenades to be used, but have 1 flash/shock grenade that "reloads" every 15 seconds.



I'm going to keep these short and sweet. If any reasons or explanations are needed, please ask. Thank you for any consideration.

New Weapon/ability for a sgc class (sci oder commando)
The class is able to launch and control a mini Global Hawk Drone (UAV) but only once until getting killed.

The Drone could be armed with a light grenade launcher or machine gun or
could just be unarmed but able to see cloaked ashraks (so like a flying commando sight) or infra red sight to see assaulting SL (including ashraks). Steering of the drone should work like flying the redeemer missile in Unreal Tournament for example.
So you only have first person view from within the drone (or perhaps a free look-around view while changing flying direction only by holding mousekey) as long as u control it and your character has to be defended by team mates.
In addtition the drone could be able to perform a suicide (kamikaze) attack with a mid amount of splash damage. HP of Drone could be 30 or 20 so that it is killed even by the goa discarding device but doesn't already explode when slightly touching a wall.


I hope its understandable. Otherwise feel free to ask
