Tonka Legacy THIRD EARTH INCORPORATED Dark Taboo 22	Posted - 2014.01.05 11:02:00 - [4] - Quote Jet packs? HAH. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea as much as the next guy, but imagine, heavys would be flying death machines. LOOK IN THE SKY! ITS A BIRD! ITS A PLANE! NO, ITS SUPER HEAVY, WITH HIS TRUSTY BOUNDLESS HMG AND LOGISTICS SIDEKICK RIGHT AT HIS SIDE. YOU WILL NOT ESCAPE...well unless that person was me and I spray my hmg haphazardly into a crowd of people not killing a single one. 30 AR bullets traveling over 100m/h to pierce a heavys armor and kill them, But one little injector gets through it easy

Vell0cet SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 739	Posted - 2014.01.05 20:19:00 - [8] - Quote Yes to jetpacks. CPU/PG requirements would be based off weight of suit, so scouts would be able to fit them fairly easily with minor compromises in their fittings. Medium suits would have to make major sacrifices to fit one. Heavies would have to stack complex CPU/PG enhancers just to fit one. They should be lockable with swarms when the pack is active (and possibly for several seconds after as the jet cools down), and it should be possible to fire your weapon while flying (hip fire only and with a penalty to dispersion). Ideally they would tie the jetpack fuel to dropsuit capacitors, but I don't expect to see those for a while. Higher meta levels would increase flight duration. Quick/Dirty Test Range Idea

I, too, support having Jump Packs over Jetpacks. Generally, Jump Packs are generally a faster double jump. Jetpacks in games are slower and make the user a bobbing duck. I feel like there needs to be something to better separate Jump Packs and Jetpacks, though. Jump Packs could give the user a small thrust in any direction (depending on the user's direction and action) that would propel the user about one story. In addition, the Jump Pack could be a "speed boost". If the user is running forward and uses the Jump Pack, he/she is thrusted forward instead of up. If the user is moving backwards, he/she is propelled backwards instead. This would be interesting to see for quick escapes/mobility, etc. Jetpacks could move slower (like extended hovering instead of a boost), but could travel two stories overtime instead of one story in a short period of time. This would be more of out-of-combat type mobility. I think both should have a similar, longer-ish recharge time.

I don't think there's any need to make them suit-specific; just build in movement penalties depending on the suit using them. Scouts are lightest, so they get 100% of the possible benefits. Mediums are a bit heavier, so they'd get only 75% of the possible benefits. Heavies are... heavy, so they'd only get 25% of the possible benefits. This penalty could even get down to how much Armor plating is attached, etc. (meaning Shields would be favored when using them- not sure how people would feel about this).

shadow tongue Tripoint Mercetile Rimrunners Universal Rockstars 0	Posted - 2014.01.06 02:52:00 - [18] - Quote I think that the jetpack idea's cool and all but not a viable form of transport. A charge jump would work more effectively imo because running and jumping are based on stamina. A charge jump uses more stamina but gives more thrust. If jetpacks were to work you would need a fuel bar. Fuel could be replenished at supply depots. Just my thoughts on the subject.
Ralden Caster Omega Elite Mercs INC. 12	Posted - 2014.01.06 03:02:00 - [19] - Quote YEAHH JETPACKS, FLAMETHROWERS, AND THROWABLE NOVA KNIVES!!! WOO!!! But in all seriousness, CCP seems to already have a lot of current balancing issues (look at vehicles!). Why not fix what's broke right now? Afterwards, why the heck not. But right now, they already have many balancing issues. In fact, the new rifles have worsened them. And now the Forge Gun is little more than a dust collector, no pun intended.

Or you can the new stuff, have some whining and then balance it in one go. Not to mention that new options can actually add balance possibilities to already existing features. A now useless gun might be useful with a jetpack or something.

In fact, the new rifles have worsened them. throw able nova knives is a brilliant idea could have them on retractable cables and have them lock into your suit for wolverine style fighting. I like to think tht our ideas get, noticed and written down somewhere by ccp for future reference, the only imbalance I find, is the dropships and the small blasters but I havnt trained my skills up fully in those areas yet. Now if dust went, open world and its players had to travel and take assignments from agents, travel across the galaxy and do more missions ,maybe a factional war, or mined ores and minerals, deep under water, even though all this travelling about, would likely make skilling take slightly longer, it would probably mix things up abit, creating more balanced gameplay.

I'd say short burn jump pack or exo-frame like the "Vulture" in Starhawk. Vertical jump with limited lateral movement used for perching. Maybe 20-30m vertical lift per burn before cooldown?

Kigurosaka Laaksonen DUST University Ivy League 306	Posted - 2014.02.17 03:47:00 - [36] - Quote OP needs more fleshing out. I assume from the tone of the thread, the general thought is that this would be a mod. What about a new role bonused light suit with the jet pack built in? (I do think, however, new role bonuses need to be considered AFTER all the racial basic content has been released, after considering 1.8 i.e a few more racial sidearms, racial heavy weapons, Amarr and Minmatar LAVs, HAVs, and dropships, and MAVs for everyone (I wouldn't hole my breath from racial aerial vehicles other than dropships until maps are made appropriately large enough for them, or open world, whichever would come first.)

Timothy Reaper WASTELAND JUNK REMOVAL Top Men. 803	Posted - 2014.02.17 10:03:00 - [38] - Quote Sounds cool, but definitely could become over-powered. My ideas to keep things in check: 1: Cannot fire weapons while in flight (you have to use your hands to control the jetpack), or 2: Weapons can be fired during flight, but the kick wreaks havoc with your flight pattern. Either way, no equipment use (Remote Explosive carpet bombing, anyone?). Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Mark Twain

maka rax Space Road Truckers. 12	Posted - 2014.02.18 22:04:00 - [40] - Quote If they did do jetpacks, they'd need to be consumable (fuel). At least to start. And, no recharge - not even from nanohive. You can use the fuel here and there, or on one long burn. Duration is simply how much fuel is left - like a normal gas tank. What would be really fun is a passive ability that allows you to glide (flying squirrel style) instead of using standard inertial damps. This can be used even after the fuel is consumed, and any time you're able to use normal inertial dampener.
