First, I love this Mod ! Good job.
Now to the point. Couldn't you implant a Ranking
sorta thing into the Game, where the person with the most points
at the end of a level get's boosted up a rank (which would
automatically add a PFC (Private First Class) or whatever rank
to your name in the HUD ?
Also, it would be reset every time you die (like the inventory).
SO if your a Seargent and die, you start of as a PVT (Private), or
REC (Recruit).....
Just a thought that was bugging me the whole time.

Interesting Acid ... If other people have any idea about a ranking system for COOP or DIE, feel free to post it here.

If you're going to insert it, here is a list of a few ranks:

Private - PVT

Private First Class - PFC

Corporal - CORP

Sergeant - SGT

Lieutenant - LT

Captain - CPT

Add or change what you want, I'd also like to hear what others say to this idea....

Maybe we could insert some rpg stuff in Coop or Die...

With this I mean that players could get experience, so your rank levels up, with the already-in-use scoring system (Monster kills). This plus getting EXP by finding secrets. There could be a secret scoring system like this:

SecretExp . CurrentMapNumber = Total exp gained

This way, players will get more points finding secrets in harder levels. Everybody knows all the secrets in the first unit .
This could use some resources both locally and in the worldserver, however, so its all up to Pat.

I've given Army rank instead of the Air Force rank I would usually give since I think the Army rank is more appropriate (for obvious reasons). The Army, Marines, and Air Force have very similar rank structures anyway.

In a Quake-style game, in practice, you would never see anybody ranking higher than a master sergeant for enlisted, you would never see warrant officers, and you would never see higher than a colonel (maybe a one-star in a cut scene) for officers.

What ever happened to this idea ?

I think that PRG elements would be cool You could save up 2000 frags so you can start with a doubleshotgun, or 4500 for the bandolier. I'd love it

Now thats a good idea! You could use your frag points to increase your ammo limits, boost your effectiveness with a certain weapon, boost powerup durations, increase max armour/health, etc.

BUmp, I don't want this idea to die :p
