Radars, dragon balls, enemies sensing system...
If you look close the dbz universe and compare with esf, one thing on the game that doesnt fit very well the anime is about the way you deal to spot dragon balls and enemies...
The way the scouter works on esf isnt quite like the anime. In the anime the scouter doesnt show points of enemies as a plane radar but yes their directions and the amount power of the source with a target if you looking on that direction...
So looking carefully this and the dbz universe I have a suggestion of a new system of deal with enemies and dragon balls... Here is my suggestion:
- Change the Scouter to a Dragon Radar with the ability of zoom in/out(now that the maps is A LOT higher). The dragon radar would only show the DBs.
- To search for another players, it would be applied a Sense Ki System based on the Sense Dragon balls system(that there is in evm as long as I remember... I will explain it). It would work like this: The ESF Team would assign a default button on the keyboard that when pressed would make the players send signals like "expanding rings around the character" for a set amount of seconds. This rings would be in Red for enemies, Green for allies and the maximum size it would go depends of how much powerful they are in relation to you. This would serve for enemies that are on a great distance from you.
Another addittion would be that when you a certain close to another player, it would appear a ring around your character with arrows pointing to the direction of the player and colored with green(allies) or red(enemies). These arrows would circulate on the ring as long you or the other player is moving so if your enemie teleports to right behind you, the arrow would go immediately to your back pointing to behind... The ring would look like this:
But of course with the arrows attached on it. This Sense Near Ki Sources system is based on the situations that frequently happens on dbz when for example Frieza teleports to Goku's behind and he knows right way, and teleports too to counterattack. Like on this vid from 1:08 to 1:11:

Some of you could think this system could help noobies spot you, but I already have thought a way to avoid that: It would be implemented too a Hide PL button that when pressed and held, it would make your ki presence invisible to him. When you hide your PL you automatically descend to your normal form as long you're holding the button(because I never saw any of the z warriors who are in kaioken, ssj and so; capable of hide his PL unless they descend...) , and when you leave it you return to the trasformation state you were before.
The Scouter wouldnt be excluded of the game but it would be used in another way... The way you would get it would be asking shenron for it and it wouldn't replace the dragon radar. Its use would be like the CS' Nightvision googles: the screen would turn green, red or blue(ESF team choose which of them, since on dbz there are many colors of the scouter's glass... ^^) with scouter's texture(those vertical and horizontal lines),to make the impression that you are using a scouter.
His utility is that it automatically attach targets(with green/red color) to the players of the direction you're looking with info about them(Name, Class, PL) without having to aim at them no matter how far they are, as long they arent hiding their PL, making unnecessary the use of Sense ki System anymore(that has as negative point: limited amount of time of seeing the signal making you have to press the button again).
This scouter could be stolen from you if someone happens to kill you "with simple melee". If you happen to die by a beam(or spirit Bomb, no matter...), the scouter would be gone too...
Characters Atributes:
Z Warriors: Can sense Ki and Hide their PL
Androids(except Cell): Cant sense ki but either cant be detected by others with ki sense unless they're charging/firing beams
All other villans: can do the same thing as Z Warriors
I have anothers suggestions but I already got tired of typing, I will post it later...
So what do you think? Ideas that could improve it more are welcome!:yes:
