Created Other Games thread for Bellum so we can start discussing, hyping, and otherwise getting this train moving!

Not to be confused with any internal/staff facing conversation about the game. (yes I shadow pinged staff, fight me)

I will fight you!

<@&1494779507536691230> following event last night it would be great to collect a list of feedback / commentary / requests from our community:

  • add server detail you are playing on to the in-game menu screen
  • editable grenade key bind
  • clan tags
  • SL + FTLs (3 votes) to kick from squad

On last point - I think respawn menu = dead, so only other dead people can hear you. Not certain.

#

That may be only after all lives are lost. Worth testing/confirming

Score board would be a nice addition, would like to know how I personally performed. For a machine gunner/AR - a suppression counter (similar to how much healing you did during the game in squad as a medic) would be a nice idea as you are rarely getting the 'kills'. So would be a nice metric to see if you were effective at your role or not.

#

Also I noitced a small bug whilst playing as the AR gunner. If you run dry and pull out a grenade and throw it, when you switch back to your main gun it is auto reloaded. no animation or anything required. Not sure if this extends to rifle/machine gunner

i would also like a after match stats screen, even if its a personal one. and for my amusement a "most limb hit" stat LUL

socreboard can be hard cause from what i've played with it, there isn't really a death state from a shot so idk how you show that. maybe in downed stats but the reality is that even if you got 20 downed, that doesn't mean anything if those 20 downed where brought by up anyways cause your squad didn't push through a position. So sure, you got 20 kills however that didn't translate into 20 lives lost cause they were all revived. I just think the feedback loop that would give the player that they were effective would give a false sense of "well i did something to try and win the game" when they really didn't.

I didn't get to play due to an issue with the launcher but the lack of an end game stats screen sounds concerning. As someone that has done the military/combat thing in real life the role play can only go so far before I feel cheesy. I need a reason to grind a video game. I still look forward to playing the game and getting a good feel before being too harsh or overly praising it. I have a strong bias in favor of the game and hope it does well.

Yeah there's no dopamine reward to work towards, that should be addressed even if the designers are against that.

Would be so cool if we could track stats like some of the other Squad communities did. Apparently, we didn't have the skillset/resources or some shit back then for it but essentially you can put a command into discord and the bot gives you your total stats for a specific server.

That would be HUGE for us as we move into Bellum... especially if there is no sort of end game scoreboard or progression system. Our server(s) would instantly be the most popular as this is what most gamers. So we capitalize on the area the game leaves a lot to be desired. Make it work for us and help our community thrive. I have no idea about the tech side of this and the requrements but if we have the capability we should totally implment such a system when the time comes.

Something to consider if it's possible

Hmm.. that would be neat! We can talk about it sometime. The site is 99% complete now and I’m just waiting on Cap to find time to link up with me to transition some infra over to his hands.

Once v1 of the new website is out - let’s touch base on this. Few thoughts that came to mind:

  • will bellum have an API to tap into for stats? Can we get access to a private api if needed?

  • if bellum has no api for us, would we want to build an external commendation system like how squad does it today but all managed via discord and our website

And for Squad, when its our own servers, we can just nab that no problem.

@tall loom and others: It would be great if SquadOps created/started an [Ops] unit in bellum. Checkout the "Find a Unit" channel on the Bellum discord page. Reading the different units info is a great example of what it might look like.
