Mask Collecting + Dog-tags

#1

I’d like to start a Predator mask collection as FT, each time I capture a mask I’d like to add it to a list or wall. I don’t know if FT will ever get masks based on recovered Predator tech but I hope that is in the cards. I love the aesthetic of Dutch’s costume.

If I need to pick it up I’ll gladly swap my secondary out.

Dog-tags

It would be interesting if we could also personalize our FT with different Dog-tags, and if those could be collected both by our teammates when we die or the Predator. There could be a small bonus for taking this action.

  • Collecting Dog-tags acts as proof of death but I wouldn’t want it to be a requirement for reinforcement, so please don’t suggest it.
  • The tags don’t require our signature, a picture, symbol or glyph that we select is enough. (Although later being able to personalize team Dog-tags would be cool.)
  • Collecting them could play a part in a mission or as a bonus objective if you find the bodies of a previous team. (This could actually be a cool way to let the FT players know that the Pred beat the last team. If a Pred wipes a team the corpses are moved onto the next map, no corpses mean the Predator didn’t wipe the previous team.)

Dumb Idea and a waste of coding time. More maps is what we need and guns not stupid little throphies for the ft

I agree we need more maps… and guns at some point.

I don’t think it’s a waste of time to add things to do on those maps. I think that it’s going to take a lot of little thing added over time to give us the modes and missions that we want a year or two from now.
It’s little things that build the big picture.

Okay Big picture sure. I think there needs to be a stats page over this tho

#5

What kind of stats page… give me more details.

#6

Like For the Predator wins and loses, How many long claims and quick. Ranged kills. Longest range to down a ft. Stuff like that and for ft same thing wins loses. How many pred bodies how many chopper eacapes. Ai kills ai headshots. Simple stats

#7

I’d be down for that.

#8

Same. I would also like to be able to view long claims in the customization menu and pick which ones I want my Predator to perform like jason in f13

Mask Collecting would be a pain to perform because you never know a team mate might pick it up instead. Therefore, just a stats page that lists how mnay times youve knocked the mask off the pred. Then again, its not really that important.
Dog-tags sounds like a sound idea for dead bodies hung up in trees. Shoot the bodies down and collect the dog tags. That would be a fun objective if it were included in the Objectives of the missions.

These stats I feel don’t really represent much of anything. Its like stating how many times you’ve played matches. How many won…in the end its more about collecting V and spending V. or XP.

Well the mask collecting thing is more just for fun’s, but it could be turned into something more useful. Two examples…

One - Research points that add up toward unlocking something cool that can only be gotten by collecting so many Research points, more below.

Two - If you do collect one of each mask, a human equivalent is unlocked. This could be a single unique mask or there could be a version of each Predator mask rebuilt for FT use.

Research Points - Each Item or piece of Predator Tech that you escape with is turned in to the OWLF and you are awarded percentage points. Possibly in different categories depending on how detailed a system is designed. Assuming it’s straight percentages then each item provides 2 - 3 percent. When you get to hundred a weapon or piece of gear has been reverse engineered to be useable by FT - they might not provide exact functionality or be limited in some way ie. power recharge rates, or limited shots.
