this is one of those things that a pistolleer/carabineer/rifleman SHOULD be able to do


throw in commando and combat medic as well(throwing nades/shooting blasters) this should be allow to actually show the ranged supremacy over melee stackers(which were trying to prevent)


and also this allows for amazing tactical strategies... eg cm+riflemen on top, melee waiting at the door to defend them and stop incoming people..

I'd love to see such a thing and you could fly up to roof tops/balconies with a jetpack.

shooting from ontop of roofs would be awesome accept that with mellee proffesions will be shunned out completely if biulding warfare were ever to enter this game.

the jetpack idea is good but there is the problem that nearly no one owns a pack

Its a great idea i think its stupit that a riflemen cant do that it says you cant see your target
But once the riflemen shoots from balacony it would automaticly open the door to house

I don't think this is a bad idea. I don't think it should be used on a private house because whatever/whoever you're shooting at wouldn't be able to get inside unless it/they are using a ranged weapon to shoot back.

as the game is now..everyone can have 2 professions and also have medic


i was tkm-rifleman-medic(healed myself for 2k a pop)


and i was very good at it too... people got too close..get vk out..if theyre kd..get out the rifle..go 30-40 m away and shoot them in the head.

I like the basic idea, but it would never work. Would open the game to exploiting. (well more than there is already)Think the exploit where people would attack a creature or playerthen walk into a building where they could killthem while being unattackable. This is essentially the same thing, only legal this time.

Have you ever actuallyplayed SWG? Not sure what the situation is on your galaxy, but on Bria and Kettemoor, its pretty hard to go anywhere and be away from structures.

This should be added to the game.


I've coulda sworn I 've shot from a balcony in mountainous terrain ( at mobs not other PCs ) on Naboo a long time ago...but I could be wrong

yeh shooting from rooftops would be too easy to exploit as you would have riflemen and stuff that hide in private structures overt picking off all the overts from the other faction who's only choice is to run and hope they get clear before they get killed.
