Title: Tweaking HEV charge in ZS?
Post by: Seb on May 29, 2011, 08:13:52 AM
Since I just found out HEV charge actually does something, can we:

1. Make the effect stronger
2. Add something to the GUI to show how much armor you have?

All ZS players know that feeling when you have 10HP left, you get 10 kills, and then you get the useless HEV charge instead of the health boost. And some maps have HEV chargers in them, so can this long-standing problem be finally taken down?

I thought they made damage by zombies less when you get the hev charge...

Some maps have health chargers in them too.

- 60HP = Health
+ 61HP = Armor

Problem solved?

Yeah, but why can't we just make it so that armor actually gives an effect?

It does.

I had full armor, and it negated zomb's damage from 30 to 5, for about 6 hits.

I think a armor bar on the hud would be nice.

What do you mean

make the effect stronger

._.

If you have 20~+ health, armor will be way more fucking useful than health.

Not in my experience.

Armor does give you a damage difference, and alot, but it would be nice if something was added to the HUD.

Armor absorbes 80% of damage delt, and only subtracts 66% from your total armor. (According to HL Wiki, and have noticed it myself.)

In english,

30 Armor
100 Health

Get hit and loses 30HP


Your armor drops down to 10
Your health drops down to 94 (thought normal zombs only did 5, lul)

So really, in the long run, armor is more effective than health (although not by much).

Get it now?

Could've just left it at "Armor absorbs 80% of damage", I just didn't even know it had an effect because I don't remember being affected by it.

Well a visual representation of the HEV charge would actually make me want to use it since I thought it was useless and saw no difference :P Also, maybe the HEV should ward off Poison headcrab's spits since in Half-life 2 the HEV administers an antidote if you get bitten by one.
