Year 5 (2025) Speculation

[Dribbleondo]

I do expect the green egg will be unlocked sometime (probably at Easter), considering the question of power creep is behind us now and the green grenade and durian are available.

…no it’s still very much in question, and will always be in question. Balance concerns don’t magically go away the more time passes, it just makes the problems more glaring.

@Axwage

You know despite not wanting a red egg insta-poison throwable kill, I do want them to un-nerf the Molotov and bring it back to its initial properties.

I don’t. Throwing a molotov at someone is not an accident, even in Freelancer. Yes, a molotov would be more justifiable in Freelancer, where S/A is not strictly required, but that doesn’t escape the fact that it looks stupid and it was inconsistent as all hell to get kills with if you threw it.

@Axwage

I also equally want a “straight to Freelancer” button in the UI so that it doesn’t take 3 clicks or whatever.

Heritage UI has this, and it is a GODSEND!

Sticky Breaching Charge and other sticky explosives. Essentially explosives that when you throw at a wall instead of rolling or falling they stick immediately to the surface

On the one hand, this would supersede needing to place-and-hold explosives, which kinda ruins the nuance of the game a bit. On the other hand, this isn’t a particularly bad idea either. You can see the bind I’m in.

As for my thoughts; i’ll just refer you to my wishlist… (Freelancer improvements, Offline Mode rework, Permanent ET’s and Cross-platform leaderboards/ TRUE cross-saving.)
