I had this idea about there being power-ups scattered across a map. Take Arena, for example. A power-up can spawn over a certain perioid of time, such as 3 minutes. Tell me what you think of this idea.
No. No, No, No. This is not halo. This is an online PC multiplayer game. Lag, unfairness, powerup spawning, teh whole ten yards. No.

They could be minor power-ups. Such as, refill ammo, extra 50 health, that stuff.

That would be odd, if PAWN ever turned into a very large game, in the distant future I'm sure something like this would be implemented
But now, it's a nice humble shoot em up game :D
BTW, what kind of power ups did you have in mind?

1). Most shooting games have power-ups like Soldat n' SAO.
2). Power-ups as in Extra Minor Health, refill ammo, and +2 ammo capacity.
I was also thinking that there could be a design your own power-ups.
Would really only be annoying. Whats wrong with the regular refils?

I'm not saying anything is wrong with regular refills, it would just be pretty nice if you had no ammo and you stumbled upon a power-up.
EDIT: Give or take there were no refills around.

I said "Minor". So, it's not really much of a power-up, but it helps.

It has good enough servers (CrazyMonkeyGame servers). Adobe Flash just can't handle what Pawn needs.

not a good idea to much lag and it can be very annoying if the same person keeps camping where it appears it would have to appear in a random place each time

That's why it spawns randomly....

I'd probably quit...i hate powerups in shooting games. I like Pawn as a Humble game, and as a realistic game

like halo? lol
i think they would be cool, but I also think youd have to break certain tiles to get it.

Pawn, a realistic game? We have a protogun, and used to have an SMLR, that's not realistic.
