Possible Sound Reticule for Spies? New heartbeat suggestions?

[frvge]

Good point.

[Farley4Fan]

Are any devs really up to nerfing/boosting everything just to squeeze in an extra gadget slot?

This would require way too much testing/discussing/changing.  It's ridiculous.

Gawain brought up a very good point. By adding this gagdet, we close the distance between spies and mercs, making this a more average shooter.

[Hyrage]

Yes I totally agree and anyway... the spies already see the MERCS and if the MERCS were hearing the spies it will break all the hunting elements and hiding would serve to nothing as much for one side and the other.

[Farley4Fan]

Umm, there is still a gigantic difference between the two teams.  Regardless of if they both can have sound hearing devices.  That's like saying that spies and mercs both have visions so that makes them too similar.  I see what you are getting at, but it doesn't quite get there.

the main reason why i don't like the sound reticule gadget is that it's a unique feature of the mercs and the larger the difference between these two sides the more interesting it gets.

That is a good point. Doesn't mean you just scratch the idea.

the only thing is im not really for sure. heart beat is decent but then again i guess the reason i hate it is because everyone whores it so much.

plus me myself Im actually up for a new gadget to throw into the mix, so adding something would definetly put a real signature feel of it being Project Stealth and not another Ubi'fied game.

That was a bad example. You know that the visions are completely different, while this gadget would be pretty similar to the mercs. Actually when I look at it this way, I think that spies should not have this gadget, simply because I feel that it would be a bad idea to have spies and mercs share abilities.

[Farley4Fan]

Mercs and spies do have some things that are similar.  This would be similar to the merc's reticule, but not an exact copy.  I know what Gawain is trying to say and in some regard I agree with him.  But it still isn't a good reason to blow off this idea.

well after seefoo showed everyone its power ,which most thought seemed useless ,every walk of european life etc followed in his footsteps / made videos copied his editing techniques and even tried to copy his style of playing =/ to make a long story short.

[Gawain]

another reason against a sound reticule: the already existing recon tools are that strong that it's almost impossible to surprise a good careful spy.

If one of the teams are able to hear what the other tema is saying, it will kill totally the Teamwork in PS.
My vote.

[Succubus Dryad Of The Undying Comet]

That's in CT already <spy bullets>, but it usually doesn't work because teams tend to use Teamspeak instead of the ingame voicechat.

The spy reticule would act like the merc reticule in which it pings the direction of the merc w/in whatever radius its set.
