Beta 1.1 Half Models

This is an idea I had concerning the half models they are introducing into beta 1.1 when people are hit with disks. Well lets say buu ,for example, gets hit by a disk. In the show when he gets cut in half he doesnt die he just regenrates. Perhaps they could introduce a system where the disks dont kill everyone in 1 hit because some of the characters can potentiallly survive being cut in half.

These would be:-
Frieza
Piccolo
Cell
Buu

The bottom 3 can all regenerate so they would be able to survive a disk attack, and freiza gets the bottom half of his body cut off and still survives. I know frieza probably wouldnt have survived or even been able to move if goku hadnt give him and energy, but he's not planning on survivng for ever in esf. This is explained a bit later on. I dont know anything about coding, and how much time this would take them, but if they are already making half models then this could very well be possible.

What effect it would have on the characters would be a reduced maximum ki, a big speed deacrease, and maybe make some of their attacks inaccessable, because they cant concentrate. Being cut in half would cause you to lose some concentration, no matter how psycopathically deranged you are. I dont think their power level should be affected by this too much, but perhaps maybe gradually decrease until they are killed. I also think that their health should be decreased considerably but enough for it to be worth surviving for. Maybe to half of what they were currently at? Also their health should gradually decrease, and sensu beans dont have any effect.

P.S

I was also thinking about including an idea about buu, celll and piccolo, being able to regenerate back to their full form if they managed to survive for a certain amount of time. I dismissed this thought because if the regenration time for this was too short, it might give them a bit too much of an advantage, and if it was too long then their wouldnt be much point in it being included especially with all the beams flying round and being detonated, and they are also heavilly handicapped.

Anyway, thanks for readin and tell me what you think, and feel free to post any suggestions or touches to add.

Why is it unfair? Going by your logic everyone should have the ability to use kienzans because it is 'unfair' that only 2 characters can use them. It would be one of the abilities for their charachters, just like goku can can teleport while charging beams, cell wouldnt be killed by a kienzan because he has the ability to regerate. Arent the esf team trying to stay as true the show as they can? My idea comes from events that happpen in DBZ.

Oh and Aisha. I must have missed your name as Head of suggestions for ESF when i read the credits. How do you know it wouldnt get past the drawing board, this idea is releveant to something they are actually including in ESF. I also must have missed you flaming ideas on this board lke "1337 idea. SSJ4 GOGETA IN ESF!!!!!!!!" and "plz plz plz plz Brolli and Janemba"

Seems like you and my idea have got a lot in common after all Aisha.

I can't help but feel the youve misunderstood how little it would unbalance the game. In counter-strike, the AWP used to be 1 hit kills no matter where you hit them. The team revised that i now if you are hit in the leg it isnt an instant kill. Youve lost a lot of health, but realistically youve still got a fightin chance. Did that unbalance the game so much that no one wants to play counter-strike any more? Just becase a few of the charchters can survive a 1 hit kills attack, is that gonna make esf unplayable. Im not tryng to compare the 2 because esf pwns cs anyway, but this is a very similar idea since it concerns a 1 hit kills weapon. Youve got to admit that youve been have a nice melee battle with someone who pretty good so you have got time to see whats going on elsewhere. Just before you can finish them off you or them gets sniped with a disk from someone you havent even been fighting. You see my point? Not only wouldnt they get the frag, if you were playing as one fo the characters, but you mght end up getting them back for sniping you. It would be difficult since you would be handicapped, but it would be nice to know you had the chance.

well if u think about it all the ppl that can survive the disc are the ppl that throw the disc minus krillin...and they said that they were gonna try to limit the # of character per server so itd be like 2 cells.. also i do lke this idea but with your awp response you have to remember it was for everybody not just selected few. BTW that would be alot of animating work too.. i mean a disc doesnt exactly hit u in one spot but it could go up or down diagonally or whatever.... so all in all its a good idea just lots of work... and because the saiyans could trans and descend they are the stronger players so giving this to the "other" category might balance it out but it isnt to unbalanced now.

thanks for you input m8. but wouldnt they already be covering that since they are making half models at the moment anyway? IF so then they would only need to do the coding side of it. Or do you think they are gonna use sprites to animate it?
If thats the case then it would be a lot more work for them.

Anyway thanks again Majin Gotenks.

the power of the disc (disc charge time) should make the difference between geting killed and getting ut in two and survive. But if you survive your health should be above 10 this way you could play as a half player like feeza did.

So what youre saying is that they should only survive depending on how much the disk has been charged. Its a nice idea in thought but it would render my idea useless. My idea is mainly designed to give you a chance of survival if someone snipes you with a disk. If they are gonna be sniping you then they will more than likely be throwing a fully charged disk at you everytime, cause its a bigger surface area. Personally i think the chance of survival should be determined by your power level in comparison to theirs.

Anyway thanks for the idea.
