Hey guys
One thing i really miss in games is interactive maps. Eg. in the original NS, we see lots of cool computer stuff around the maps, and other things that rines used before the kharaa infestation. Why shouldn't we be able to use that stuff? Maybe rines should be able to control temperature and pressure inside biodome in ns_origin, so alien buildings wouldn't survive. That would make it very important for the aliens to protect the biodome computer. Or how about setting up surveilliance cameras inside hive areas that rines could observe via monitors located another place in the map. Or toxic gascointaiers that aliens could bite releasing gas that rines couldn't survive without a protective suit.
Also, i think it would awesome to be able to control the light enviroment in the maps. The aliens should be able to destroy lights so rines can't see anything, so the rines has to go inside with nightvision and weld the lights, or bring moveable lights with them into the room.
Another thing could be small transportable walls or shields, that rines could take with them creating small outposts around the maps.
Basically i want to have maps that aren't just a set of obstacles that we have to pass by. We should be able to interact with the maps, so that it would give the feeling of us actually being a part of this rine-alien conflict. That would be awesome <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/asrifle.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::asrifle::" border="0" alt="asrifle.gif" />
