Here are a few ideas that I believe could improve the game:
1. Vehicle controls should be altered. I believe the driving controls should be R2 to go forward, L2 to reverse, left analog stick to steer, and the right analog stick to look around. Keep triangle to switch seats.
2. It is much too slow to switch to the sidearm. I actually wish it wasn't mapped to R2 as well. Triangle would be much better. Make the right analog stick switch stance. L2 melee and R2 grenade.
3. The reload animations are a bit too long in my opinion.
4. I think the maps should look different based on the atmosphere of the planet. Fire, Ice, Forest, Desert, Storms, Snow. You could also have ancient cities, refineries, villages, architecture of the different cultures, mines, etc. Variety is always nice and should set the maps apart.
5. All the classes should have unique weapons and abilities that help the team. Assault is useless right now.
6. Additional cosmetic variety between classes and enemies. Should be able to look at player and tell what class they are playing.
7. Aim assist and voice chat should be enabled by default.
8. Higher default looking sensitivity.
9. Camera should be farther away from character in HQ.
10. Improve textures and effects
11. Grenade indicator for friendly and enemy grenades. Make indicator different colors.
12. Hit boxes need to be adjusted.
13. Reloading while running would be great.
14. Stamina meter is a bit annoying, would prefer unlimited sprint.
15. Hold breath while sniping if not already possible.
16. More class based game play similar to battlefield but on a greater level so people work together more.
17. Engineers can build temporary structures such as gun turrets
18. Press down to open a scroll wheel to select a vehicle or structure with analog stick. Look to Star Hawk for inspiration.
19. Traditional menu would be nice with a server browser and from there you can choose to go your HQ. Would have all the features and options available when you press start. HQ feels sort of gimmicky to me since its so small.
20. Orbital drop system for spawning would be awesome. I know it is in both Section 8 and Star Hawk but it makes sense in this game since you are working for the Eve Online players.
I have a feeling this is going to be an awesome game when all is said and done. :) Lets try to help make the game the best it can be. Leave your suggestions below. |

It's a bigger problem when you are playing the "medic" and you have no side arm with the frame rate stuttering. You are basically a dead man walking at that point. |

Thank you for the advice. I haven't played the game long enough to figure everything out just yet. I've been reading the forums and it seems that there are no set classes but whatever abilities you choose to learn. |

When you press square to wait to be revived it doesn't really tell you if anything is happening or that you pressed the button. Perhaps a sound effect or animation should be added? |

@Saint Chalmes I agree with everything you stated. I believe this game would benefit greatly to make it much more team based instead of just another space marine FPS. Class symbols or ability symbols would be very helpful. I dislike players focusing on only their K/D because in the end it doesn't matter much. It's great if you can have a high K/D and help the team with objectives. Give XP or points for performing team based actions. I don't think you bleed out in the game, I have sat there for minutes and just give up to spawn again. "To help promote the use to team work. Display Squadleader and Squad in a drop down list on the side of the screen somewhere in the HUD. I would like to see who the Squad Leader is and who is in my squad. If possible would like to see a Contribution score so I know who is doing stuff and who needs some direction or some help. I would like to see a Yellow star or something next to the squad leaders name so I can follow him and help him with objectives. This would promote team work and leadership" I think they should look to the battlefield series for inspiration for the UI. It is sort of clunky right now and hard to use. Orbital strike and other abilities should be easier to use for squad leaders. I like that the game has scroll wheels but they aren't very responsive at this point in time. |

@ Chris Chance Yes, you shouldn't be able to run and reload with all the guns. Perhaps this could be a skill you learn? I wish the weapons were a bit more enjoyable to fire. There isn't enough recoil or impact. The control mechanics are bit loose at this point in my opinion, movement doesn't feel right and you get stuck on small hills. You should be able to jump slightly higher as you now only go about 5 inches off the ground. I also noticed when using the tank turret that the body of the vehicle clips into the turret. The way grenades currently explode annoy me. I never see any sort of explosion or anything, they just go off. |

@ colonel deadshot That is a good idea. Custom names for your load outs would be nice. I think the little things need to be focused on more than the bigger aspects right now. Build a solid game and then add cool features on top of that. That is what will keep people playing long into the future. |
