Ronan Elsword,
Hello Fellow Dust players, and CCP staff members reading this.
I have an idea which starts out with an Eve based space battle continuing into a Dust based infantry battle.
When Corporation Ships are attacking another Corporations Space Installations, instead of destroying the space installations; like space stations and outpost, you capture them with troops.
Starts out with a ship in Eve sending special drones that hold troops in a drop ship style troopship,
It is being sent across a small area of space in Eve representing squad X or X number of units
(One Ship per squad with maybe 6 man squads.)
If there are not enough full squads, troops are queued up in to the ships depending on how full the ship is
Example:
3 people in squad A
1 person in squad B
2 people in squad C
All 6 of these people are put into the same ship.
OR: Allow Players to decide how this will take place before the battle
Possibly have a requirement on the minimum number of people needed in the attacking corporation to start the battle
(Not including Eve Players)
Possible outcomes from sending in troopship
If the ship doesn't reach the station all troops inside(X) are killed
X number of clones removed from attacker reserves
Perhaps allow the attacking team to buy extra clones(within reason) for this, (If yes then possibly in other battle types as well)
or add more clones every time the team takes an objective.
The Clones will then be sent with the next ship after a approx: 6-10 second cool down at least
If the ship reaches the station:
- The troops who were designated inside of it spawn inside the ship as it enters the station,
- Troops Exit ship (Possibly make it an automatic exit from ship)
- Ship then leaves to return to corp ship for further deployments
Note: Ships are CPU controlled and can be destroyed like drones
The Mercs can then take a point, like in skirmish that they can start spawning at.
Or the ship can stay and act like a "Clone Reanimation Unit for the whole team", or a spawn point for X amount of lives, or for the people that were on it only. Until Destroyed
Possible way to do this: Set it up like Rush in Battlefield 3, and take over points as you go through the station.
Will explain above after coming up with a layout style
