^this is a good idea for balancing, but I feel like everyone would complain if they couldn't play as a spartan. Maybe do the same thing, but with vehicles? If you are the first to get a 10 kill streak then you get to drive a scarab, or an elephant (not a very good example for humans)

I don't know if I like the whole killstreak thing...

Maybe you could have some sort of credit system in the game, simular to reach, and if you are feeling rich you can buy a scarab or elephant for LOTS of credits. Cheaper vehicles cost less or are already on the map.

Maybe the credit system could be like the one from Dust 514 where clans could purchase/request in battle ordinance/vehicles from a pool of money the clan obtains through kills and objectives.

I was thinking of swbf2, but I guess kill streaks wouldn't be very fair. What it was based on score, and everything positive that you do affects your score (kills, vehicle kills, base/flag captures, etc.)?

Kind of like ordnance drops? Could work

who agrees on a map system like planet side 2's

Maybe not at initial release, but I would like to see it at some point.

That would be amazing! But not on all maps though, I think some maps should just be offense or defense and not both.

Just looked up planetside 2 gameplay for the first time. So much of it seems to be inspired by halo and battlefield (and maybe a little of cod for customizable weapons).

I would absolutely love to see concepts from planetside 2 put into GOC. Just imagine being able to spawn inside a pelican/phantom in mid flight!

A territories system would be awesome.

Whatever happens, our drop pods need to be awesomer than those in Planetside 2. Helljumpers move out!
