Wall Sensor

[humble cedar]

A wall sensor (round) to place in entrace, when placed a straight green laser appears and it touches the other side of the wall.

Reason: There are many places/spots where you have to look out for more than 1 entrance, if you're alone or maybe 2 of you it can be hard, especially if you have to hold the position, placing barricades/mines/wire can be useful but easily bypassed if the enemy doesnt make any sound.

This item can be very useful to player who's playstyle is "holding" the objective to avoid enemy respawn or simply waiting for reinforces

For class:
Engineer / Support

Amount: 1 or 2

How it works:

1. Can only be placed if on the other side there's a structure (with maybe a fixed range, like 5-10 meters)

2. If the structure/object on the other side gets destroyed, the sensor automatically stop working

3. When place, an icon appear on the lower screen, indicating the sensor is on, icon is of a green colors (dark color, not too bright bright, maybe with some transparency)

4. If an enemy steps into the laser/surpass the laser, the icon become a bright red for 1-2 seconds (Maybe a sound?)

5. If your teammates of your squad are near the sensor (10-20 meters) they will also have an icon

6. If multiple sensor are placed (Because you place more than one or teammates) the icon will have a small number near it, yours will be always the first one

7. Placing more than 1 or 2 will automatically make disappear the oldest one you placed

8. When you equip it in your hands, the place system is the same as the barricades, but it becomes green only when horizontal and if it detects a wall/object on the other side

Other stuff not so sure about it:

1. Sensor laser can be seen if enemy is either support or engineer, the color needs to be not to bright or too easy to spot

Just add sound queues to barbed wire

we dont need to reinvent the wheel, just buff the existing tool that’s supposed to do the same thing

[native forge]

I mean isnt the purpose of the sensor to solely detect enemies, while barbed wire is the area denial thing

Not that im opposed to adding sound cues to it to serve as a sensor of sorts, just saying

Either way, i cant say the sensor fits BBR

[humble cedar]

well it got drones with mines on them, lol. And the gamemode type which is holding the objective/area makes kinda sense to have a sensor

[kindred dew]

'oh shit my sensor went o-' dies to sweaty nerd c4

i like the barbed wire sound cues more

[next viper]

Dude just use a claymore

It’s literally the EXACT same thing but it kills people

[native forge]

Mfw claymores are bugged

[kindred dew]

me when i step on a claymore and get a kill from it

[next viper]

Well obviously they would get fixed in the update

So that’s irrelevant

Because they would be fixed way before wall sensors got added

[kindred dew]

claymores can be jumped over if you see the funny black line

or walked around or set off with gun/c4

im not saying that i like wall sensors but claymores just arent the same thing

if barbed wire gave a sound cue it might actually have a reason for existing other than being annoying

[next viper]

Ok? The green laser for the sensor can also be jumped over. It could also be broken if shot.

It is literally the exact same thing as the claymore but more useless

[native forge]

Not quite, the sensor would be more of a reconissance gadget per say and less obvious than mines and claymores

[sweet ginkgo]

just r6 proxy sensor then?

[native forge]

Especially claymores since you can see them from a mile away with those goofy ass lines

[next viper]

Same with the sensor green laser

That’s literally more noticeable

[next viper]

It would serve the same function, plus some xp

[native forge]

But what if there was no visible laser

[next viper]

the suggestion says there would be a green visible laser

its just a redundant gadget

[native forge]

Ok but what if

No laser

[next viper]

it wouldnt have any way of noticing it first and avoiding it

im fine with that but devs wouldnt be

remember, we are getting not only nade indicators, but also c4 and drone indicators

no way they would make it have no laser

[viral beacon]

Instead of new gadget, I'd prefer laser one as a custom skin for claymore, like hammer and pickaxe

[next viper]

That would be cool

One that makes the wires red lasers instead

Like Carl duty claymores

[viral beacon]

About sensor, I'd love to have sensor ball like bf4, can throw them like nade and get some information, not long lasting or give too much infomations

[hexed tulip]

we already have that, you just need a good headset and mute everyone
