Make Drones better Queens

Post by Butterrobber202 » 16 Feb 2017, 23:10

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Just have any Drone that is above the Age of 'Elite' be an Elite Queen when they evolve.
And before you get pissy, It takes 500 to mature as a Drone, then 1000 to go Elite.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Elite - Ancient Drones don't have to sit through Evolve times AGAIN.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): See Summary

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Code?

Rewarding good Drones by not making it so shitty for them if they are forced to evolve would be great.

-1. It's already generous to have drones be able to both upgrade and still evolve to queen, and the lowest queen is still stronger than an ancient drone.

Maybe even make it so that the oldest drone can only become the Queen? So a Drone that survived the longest and propably has the most experiance will take the command role. And I think that this suggestion would motivate people to play drone a little more.

I can see a lot going wrong right here. But I'm too thirsty to go over it. So +1
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

I would rather say for drones to go queen of one level lower, but otherwise a good idea. +1

This place would be so much better if marines were replaced with cyborgs, atleast those would follow orders. assuming there was a rule forcing them to do so...
