YOu should like when you shoot the ground/box/rocks/walls it blows up and like it starts falling and hits you. If theres already a post about this, please delete/lock this one

Many people don't realize that if polygons degraded/exploded, there'd be a lot more polybugs to deal with, and eventually the map would become unplayable.

Once a map is loaded into Soldat, its framework (polygons, sceneries, etc.) are all "permanent" and unchangeable. This is by design and would require a great deal of rewriting just to achieve what we want (destroyable polygons). Even if it was done, anyone who plays enough Soldat knows that eventually the ground would cease to exist and you'd all just be free-falling, spawning over and over again. Or fighting over this tiny chunk of land.

..which sounds like a lot of fun :D

But on a serious note, nah, not gonna happen.

Not the land, I meant like the boxes and barrels you know those small things only

Like no way, that would like bring some like coding complications.

maybe just make a kind of polywood that could be named wood and can be cut with saw and burned with flamer and blown with m79 and nades. while it would be fun, it could add quite a bit of fun to the game I think

Now you just wrecked it.

maybe some trees that blowup and instant kill

Or maybe random mailboxes of death.

Lol when i heard this idea i thought of worms instantly.

yeah it reminds me of worms too

What if like on worms (im thinking Worms Armageddon), the bullets make craters that you would normaly expect to come from a 30mm weapon. Just imagine how fast the arena will turn into a podium XD

DUDE that'd be awesome! I'm PMing MM about it right away!!!

Wouldn't this lag servers with Minis enabled even more?
I think it's a bad idea... it would lag dm so much :|

This idea sucks.

Knowing the nazi-like moderators on this forum, this thread will probably be locked. Why? It's not like having a thread like this hurts anybody. It's not like having this thread will somehow magically implement this into soldat and make your game suck. Just let the poor noobs dream.

Before anyone says that this is "impossible" to program, as I'm sure someone will, I'm going to input my 2 cents. It's not impossible. I'm a programmer. I know. It's DIFFICULT. It would require major rewrites of soldat's polygon code to have all polygons like this, and all existing maps and weapons and gameplay would have to be completely rethought. However, to have a NEW separate kind of polygon, one that's destructable, would also require much programming, but would not require a rewrite. But nonetheless, it would still require much code. This does not mean it's impossible. It is not impossible, it's just stupidly pointlessly difficult. I would prefer that in the future, people would refrain from commenting about technical matters in which they have no knowledge. Don't say that it's impossible.

I dont recall anyone saying that it was impossible...

Ok listen up, you have been hippieing around for long enough. You can dream while playing soldat, or driving your car, you can dream while brushing your teeth, and unless the dream can actually happen in the near future without the huge amount of pure wasted time that would be spent on making it happen, WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR DREAMS SOLDAT WILL NOT HAVE DESTRUCTABLE POLYGONS AND IF I HAVE TO SAY THIS TO ONE OTHER RETARD ON THESE FORUMS I WILL BE SERIOUSLY PISSED OFF.

say it again to me, i didn't read all that clear enough, my computer is uh...lagging and messing with me, it won't let me read that post.

-_-

polygons in their current state cannot be changed during a game, therefor they cannot explode at all without some serious ammounts of coding being done.

Where does this explain WHY threads like this get locked? Does it HURT you to have thread like this? In fact, if you don't care about this idea, WHY THE HELL DID YOU EVEN CLICK THE LINK TO ENTER THE THREAD? Are you some kind of masochist who gets off on reading ideas he hates? Soldat won't have 99% of the ideas the come up in this forum, does that mean that all the threads get locked? At least for once, you finally admitted that it's possible to do, just no one will do it.

In the future, please stop trolling, 4-year-old.

i was actually trying to pissing you off....but uh sure, whatever makes you happy :)

Whoa, that'll be the first honest troll I've ever seen.

 Quote:Originally posted by HYPERFUNKBOT... Are you some kind of masochist who gets off on reading ideas he hates?...
He's not a masochist; he loves to yell at people. When he says he's giong to be "seriously pissed off" when someone else suggests it, he means he'll be extremely satisfied at having the chance to turn on Caps Lock and explain to another n00b why destructible terrain will not be implemented.



iDante's idea of "polywood" is hilarious, lmao xD

Yes lets get a wood poly, and have a new powerup that transforms you into a termite which can eat its way at an exceptional rate through the wood, and bite soldats, causing instant death, and also lets give the termite more health then your average soldater because i've heard they are tough little buggers to kill.

P.S: I'm all for this idea

Alright retard. Here's why these threads get locked.

Because they're made every other week. Because idiot-mongers like yourself cannot use the Search function. Because we get tired of ANSWERING THE SAME QUESTION EVERY OTHER DAY.

It is -not- going to happen within the next year or so, at least. Do not hold your breath, and for the last time:

Stop trolling.

Oh, and lurk more, Hyperfur[CENSORED].

I don't make threads like this. In fact, I have not posted a new thread in this or any other forum to my knowledge at all, I've only posted in existing threads. I use the search function quite often.

Don't answer it, then.

Did I say I wanted this? Did you even bother to *read* my post? I really don't want destructable polygons, it's a bad idea. Hell, since when are ANY of these ideas in this forum going to happen within the next year or so?

 Quote:Originally posted by Lapis_Lazuli

Actually, that's the first time. I was unaware I was promoted to that level in the internet forum world. I don't really see how I fit any of the definitions mentioned here: http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/T/troll.html

Besides, MM isn't the only one who uses these forums for ideas, ideas mentioned here sometimes give me ideas for use in my own games.

You haven't given me a single good reason why threads like this should get locked.

True - It would take a hell lot of rewriting.
But in the end, I'd have to say it's worth it.

Improving Soldat to such a high level IS - Worth the effort.

1. Annoying spam holes
2. gathering places for people like you who think that any posts on the internet should not be locked
3. another place where ignorant [CENSORED]s like you can gather and say something like. It isnt impossible, so it should happen.

just because you do not say it, doesn't mean we don't infer it,

Loose the grammar and you would be good bashpit material.

can we lock the topic now?

I see no spam in this thread.

This is slightly incorrect. I think threads should have a reason to be locked.

I'm not sure what you mean. I'm unfamiliar with what a "bashpit" is, and I'm not sure how one can loosen or tighten grammer.

Why?
