Boombox in the req

Post by lucashunter608 » 31 Jul 2016, 16:30

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):I was thinking...why don't we have a boombox playing some cool or memey musics while we get attachments? have your favorite musics shared with us!

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):Please this realy needs to happen

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):N/A

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):I think its a very simple thing to do, the bad thing would be the sprite, but you know, we got our amazing (slaves) spriters for that!

Yeah, just made it, was not really hard but thanks anyway. Also, +1, it is too boring to just stand in a line at req, especially at high pop rounds.

Why not make req lines entertaining? and who knows maybe it will cause less fights. +1

I already see people fighting to have their fav tune playing... Glorious +1
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.

Would certainly make waiting fun in the Req office. Could also be good for maintenance.

I'm a little hesitant.

One summer, I worked as a staffer at a little theme park. In particular, I staffed a Bumper Cars ride.

I liked the music they played. Everyone did.

Then I worked there for two months. I hate every song on that list. I worry it will be the same here.

As long as we don't just have all the lobby music put in as the boombox music I think it'll be alright. Anywho people Devs can always change the music list if they ever get tired of it or the community does.

Meh, as long as people can turn it off individually by using 'disable midis' i'm cool with it.

that's why i'm saying the boombox should be just in the req, marines would abuse the midi system by turning music on to make xenos stop and download the music while marines kill the poor xeno, i also want to make PEOPLE play their musics, not a list of musics to be put in the boombox

*takes a shovel* *turns on COOKIESCOOKIESCOOKIES record* *hides boombox in a grave* *laughs*

-1, even though I love music in SS13, no one on CM will try to code in unlaggy music system

I don't think musics make the game laggy, you just need to download the resources and you're good to go, that's why i want the boombox only in req, it is a one way trip

I feel like this would be exploited too much.

Probably not something we really need right now. Denied.
