Default pAI frequency

Post by Sligneris » 25 May 2015, 16:54

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Change default pAI frequency to 146.1 (Sulaco)

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Commander and Squad Leader pAIs belong to Sulaco, so they shouldn't need to ask about Sulaco frequency as it would normally be their default - it makes it easier for everyone.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Uhh... change default pAI frequency to 146.1?

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
If possible, the default frequency should be changed back to 145.9 if the pAI is activated by a Survivor who hasn't yet set his foot on Sulaco.

+1 to this.
For me it's hard to change the freq because when I try to change it it doesn't show and I have to close the window and re-open it for it to register, and with it being a Sulaco-owned pAI it should already have it in-putted, or the owner should be able to do it.

pAI's need a buff anyway, at least to their door jack.

Don't play pAI much, and never used the door jack. But I'm assuming it just opens doors.. So they should be given the ability to bolt and shock doors too.

The door jack is soooooooooo slow. Bolting a door would be a nice addition, but seriously, the door jack takes a whole minute or two to open a single door.

Having a better pAI would help survivors out, as there is one in the maintenance area north of the dorms. I have only played as a pAI for a survivor, and the door jack helped, but it was way too slow. Also, it let's survivors be less meta, but they are still a total mess balance-wise.

i Feel like Pai's should be little spheres on the floor that move by rolling around and assisting you instead of something you carry.. Well maybe not little spheres but something that they can move by themselves, because it is fairly annoying to have to carry one and also if they want to show you a specific area they can't because they can't point or move they just have to guide you with words which takes longer then really needed.

Well that's my view on the whole Pai thing, also yes! to the pai frequency change.

There's a server where you can transform from the pAI hand-held, into a cat so you can move freely. But the sphere sounds cool

sphere pAIs... i would wander about, humming softly and chuckling, then start following around a black Sargent with a red glow in my eye...
Being serious, a buff would be nice; we don't want them on the level of borgs, but currently they are about as useful as tits on armor.

+1 from me
