Walking IN water

[MeckonOmega]

Next Generation Suggestion:

One thing I wish were different about INF is that when you walk into water, your forced to swim when the waters only up to your waist. I would prefer, game engine allowing, that you don't start swimming until th water is up to your head, or you press a key. I think this would be cool and add another dimention to that game, as well as broaden mappers horizons.

Thanks.

Good idea, it makes sense. I'm not sure how it would affect gameplay though.

I think it would affect gameply by allowing players to more freely use alternate paths enroute to an objective more than they have before for fear of being defenceless.

I'm not sure whether it's possible code-wise or whether it's hardcoded into UT. That said, mappers could get around it very easily by placing BlockPlayer in the water.

Could you enlighten the ignorant.. Whats Block Player?

 

[das_ben]

An invisible actor that blocks players but let's through any other actors [grenades, projectiles etc.].

Good point. If you're in shallow water, you should be able to stand and shoot if an enemy attacks. You could also make some cool ambushes where you pop out from under water and take out enemies from behind.
