Survivors
Kornel Kisielewicz:
I'm all against survivors -- Doom is a game pitting the lone marine against the hordes of hell, and so it should stay. I might however leave the code for that in the API in case someone would like to do a Team Mod.
Horyon:
I agree with Chamber. Even in commercial games, allies seldom have an AI good enough to make it feel like "teamplay".
Sure, it looks entertaining on the paper, but once implemented, you'll probably have several problems : trying not to shoot him when he stands between you and the enemies, stopping him from firing randomly at a group of barons of hell, making him avoid acid/lava when you want while still being allowed to make him cross an acid pool, preventing him from wasting ammo/medkits/phase devices (do not fire your plasma rifle at this former human), not having him get lost around each corner and so on...
Moreover, it will probably slow down the game a lot, because you'll have to manage him, to give him orders under the threat that if you don't do it well, he will fire a rocket where he should not have.
It's definitiely not worth the coding effort.
(sorry if my english isn't perfect)
ParaSait:
Yeah maybe you're right. Oh well, it was only a wild suggestion. =)
Sachiko:
Plus, in Doom, you don't need help to kick demonic ass. Only BIIIIIIG guns!
Dawgas:
Are you guys mad? This would be a great idea!
Shit, maybe we could even have the TOTALLY AWESOME MECHANIC OF "party members take a part of future gained XP!"
or hell, even "LOL I'LL TAKE THAT FROM YOU, MAGGOT"
MAYBE EVEN "LOL FUCK YOU I'MMA BACKSTABBING YOU SO YOU CANT UNLOCK THAT NICE THING YOU WANT"
also, he should have a fixed name. I say Kornel should be the name ;)
