Title: Crouch = no nametag
Post by: weylin on February 16, 2011, 01:34:04 am
I thought, while crouching, a users name tag should vanish from sight, making 'sneaking' a lot more fun :D

The character itself can still be seen and selected, but you'll be able to hide behind things, or in bushes, and not be seen.
If you're camouflaged on terrain with swaying grass or something, you may even be able to stay hidden in plain sight!

Mostly pointless, but it would be great for games like hide and seek.

Anyone play minecraft? If you hold shift, your name disappears. That alone has gotten me out of some bleak PvP encounters.

I really like this idea. It's only a tiny addition but could prove to be kind of fun x)

Could anyone be able to hint this to Kov, I've lost contact with him.
I wasn't one to bug him much, but we did discuss a few ideas, like the hill physics and characters tilting when running up hills.

It just seems like a very easy thing to implement, hard to exploit, and would provide potential for hide and seek games.

In IT we could only play hide and seek if everyone turned off tags manually and even then, we had to trust them not to 'peek'

what about thier dots on the map though? would those dissapear too?

I was wondering about that.

Unlike IT, though, you only see friends on the map. Perhaps it could remove the dot as well, that seems like a good idea.

 I can't believe that I didn't see this earlier. I like this idea. c: Like earlier I was trying to ninja-crawl up to Avani ingame but she saw my nametag. D8 Ninja attempt has failed. This is a good idea, it would improve my ninja powers. >:3

This is an awesome idea! :3 I love it! It would make hide and seek more fun, that's for sure!

I guess you can press H for hide name tag so other players cannot see your name tag :3 But this may be only available while crouching. just a suggestion

I love the idea, It will help my stealthiness on creepin' on my friends. Cuz ya' know its hard to being a giant lion trying to sneak on someone xD

But wouldnt it be difficult if the person needs to be reported and you cant take a screenie, Ik you can click on them still and see info but... o3o

That's a good point. Maybe screenshots could show the name tags, even if you couldn't see them.
Shame on anyone who would take a screenshot just to see where someone is hiding, though xD
Title: Re: Crouch = no nametag
Post by: LordKreiger on June 19, 2011, 05:13:59 pm
Is it even possible for screen shots to be able to see name tags if you yourself cant see it.
Screenshots mainly take a picture of what you see on the screen mainly.

The idea itself is pretty cool but there could be flaws, not just with the reporting and screenies, but also with trolls and what not x.x It can cause a few problems here and there ._.
