Title: [I]blidden hips (implemented as a camouflage)
Post by: [R]phil_mitchel on August 11, 2010, 11:58:04 AM
me thinks we should have hidden blips back at city planning, i dont know why they were took off,
maybe we could have them last for 5 lives or something, so u lose them wen u die 5 times?

Well I would prefer if hidden blip were to be brought back to the server only if for example, someone buys the hidden blip and as usual, the player's blip is hidden but when the player shoots, the blip appears for about 5 seconds then disappears.

Why was it removed in the first place?
Title: Re: blidden hips

Idk I thought because of newbies that were confused and might complain about cheaters, but I'm not sure if that's the reason. Stupid reason imo because hidden blip is cool. And if it comes back, please not only hidden blip when you're in a vehicle, also on foot. I can remember before it got removed you was only invisible in a car, which destroys the fun of sniping somewhere on a roof (number 1 reason for me to buy hidden blip).

afaik it was removed because even admins werent able to see the players blips and some idiots sniped tyres at racestart while they were super stealth.

bullshit.

it worked well for me all the time and i used it A LOT!

Relax dude don't wet your pants cause there was a short period that hidden blip only worked when you were in a vehicle, and there was a time you was inactive so how do you know while I saw it with my own eyes.

Noooooooooo -1337!!!!!!!

It's just another way for regulars to rape newbies, it gets them confused and makes them finally leave the server.

should make it so hidden blips only work when you have sniper rifle/country rifle/m4/ak-47 in hand or are in a vehicle, and when races are starting it is de-activated temporarily.

Problems solved:
- People in close range can no longer rape unexpected newbies with a very cheap sawn off shot.
- Admins and players can easily check snipers if they are on a stealth mission to ruin the race start.
- Advantage in vehicle is still there for racers, cruisers, exporters and property buyers; and people can still snipe with a fair advantage over their victims, paying for what it was worth ($1,500,000).

I miss the blips...

Post by: Devilboy665 on August 16, 2010, 12:12:14 AM
Ohh...now I think that "blips"  should wait ...till we get more ppls on server(if ever,but I hope)...cuz I gotta agree with nubz saying no blip but he killed me...wtf!? cheater,this sux...blablabla!  8)

Or do it like this: Enable buying Hidden Blips...
     but...              Enable buying thing that make u see that players hidden blip...
       or...              When some1 buys hidden blip...make a message in main chat...like 4  TANKS!
                            smthin like: "Watch out! Some jerk have hidden blip...u cant see him on the map!"         ;D

Hidden blips is the best and more useful feature in the special item shop. Gryphus, u say it's another way to rape newbies? Newbies don't check the minimap so it's not a big advantage in this case. What is more, we need cool things to spend money on, unless you will find better ways to unfreeze the banked money.

About the newbe thing, with or without hidden blips the newbes have alot of troubles with regulars anyway.

Hidden blip is popular & suggested by many players.
This should also be placed back at the city planning department, for 1,5 or 3 mill.
When it is turned on the player can't be seen on foot nor vehicle unless he fires a bullet which will make him visible for 5 seconds( this part has also been suggested before)
the player will also need money to turn the hidden blip on, it will take $ 10 or $ 25 a second.
If there is no money, the hidden blip will be disabled.
If the player is near (sniper) shooting distance of a race start checkpoint the hidden blip will also be disabled.
-Advantage:
-Players will have something extra to spend there money on.
-The hidden blip being implemented this way will be less abusable than before!
-Players will have to have a certain amount of cash on their pockets, using hidden blip.( so if they want to be hidden they take a little risk of losing cash.( more balanced.)
-Disadvantage:-It looks expansive but what else you want to do with your money?

I could make a new topic but thats useless, actually the only fresh thing added in this suggestion is the amount of money you have to pay every second.

Hidden blips are awesome, they just have to be improved alot more so that it isnt a real advantage to players that buy them.

Yeah that's my point: that the rich players shouldn't have a real advantage over the poor newbies.

Gryphus, u say it's another way to rape newbies? Newbies don't check the minimap so it's not a big advantage in this case.

Ok, then change the word "newbies" for "semi-newbies" if you prefer: those who have been playing Samp for some time and look at the radar, but still aren't skilled enough to have a fair fight against a hidden player. I guess everyone has passed this intermedium stage between being a total newbie and a regular.

About the newbe thing, with or without hidden blips the newbes have alot of troubles with regulars anyway.

Yeah, so don't add more...
