Personalized Things

Post by Desolane900 » 30 May 2016, 06:01

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Hold a knife in one hand and a weapon/helmet/armor in the other hand. Click the item with the knife to scratch words into it.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It'd be cool to Examine a gun laying around and see someone's name or personalized message on it show up like a Pose does for players.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Just a little popup box that let's you put words on the flavor text of a gun or armor or helmet with a combat knife. It'd take about 5 seconds and would be a cool little gimmick to add in. Doesn't effect balance in any way, much unlike the new xeno update.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): I would assume just use the same code that the pen does for paper just with a knife and a gun.

Neutral, I would like to have more customization like they do with armor in the movie. But at the same time, it doesn't feel good enough to be something worthy to add.

Look grandson! A repost of a suggestion that was denied due to 1. Being incredibly tedious to implement, and 2. Marines just having completely grey helmets with all the paint scratched off!

And don't forget great grandson, what's stopping a marine from labeling their helmet "Dickhead" or drawing a dick on it?

But might as well go +1, Space Vietnam aesthetic all the way.

Old, lack of continued interest.
