Comms console in the bridge.

Post by TopHatPenguin » 22 Mar 2016, 13:42

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Hello and welcome, basically a quick run down of this suggestion would be to give the Bo ID access to the comms computer in the bridge.Considering they are normally full time in the bridge anyway it makes sense.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Allowing the Bo to have a more important role and generally to be more helpful if the CO and XO are dead.This could also help out in low pop rounds as well.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Just giving the BO ID access to the communications console in the bridge.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Coding.

+1 Said BO walks up to the ID Computer and gives him/herself all access. Trust me I do it all too much.

Fairly sure this is still an annoyance to the Bo bridge staff especially in low pop.

I don't think it needs this, the comms would be good as it is.

Against the rules, best not do it anymore \o7

Also +1, honnestly believe CO & XO should be lead roles, but not the only ones that get to control the ship as a BO in Alien is basically Ripley who knows how to run the entire ship by herself.
BOs are able to do anything a CO & XO are able to do, and really should be given about all the access within the bridge...
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

Still an all to common issue in low pop rounds and some high pop rounds with marines relying on Bo's to use the comms console which they can't do.

Going to bump this again as Bo's are now So's and I believe they still don't have it.
