So I was taking a look at the system of overheating in place for the HMG, laser rifle, blaster, and railgun so far and I have a proposal. The system at the moment calls for the weapon to shut down use and, at some times, hurt the user once overheated. I propose that the forced shut down of the weapon be removed and that in its place, damage will be taken by the user once the weapon is overheated for every unit of ammunition used once the weapon is in overheat status. The damage, however, would bypass the shield and hurt the user's armor, being as the weapon is encompassed within the shield of user. It'd be like the eve system where the pilot can overheat their modules at the expense of damaging the module and the ship after repeated use of the overheated module.
An example of this would be a two tanks fighting. One with a blaster that has recently been pushed relatively close to overheating and the other having a missile turret. The missile turret tanks needs not to worry about overheating, being as the missile turret doesn't overheat. The blaster fit tank however is at a disadvantage, being as he/she has already pushed their weapon close to the limit. In the current system, this tank would be forced to retreat being as their weapon would most likely seize fire once overheated. With the system I propose, the blaster tank would still be at a disadvantage, but they would be able to fight back at the expense of their armor should retreat not be possible or if they don't care and are willing to risk the tank for 4ll t3h p01ntz.
I myself am a heavy who would like to see this considered and discussed because I am willing to damage my suit and potentially kill myself if it means getting out those extra rounds and possibly taking the other merc with me. |

The Topic's title is misleading...
Please, change it to "Nerf Tanks!".
Thank you. |
