Carry Objectives

Post » Sun May 29, 2011 2:39 am

I first heard about these in the Get SMART: Objectives video. What will these be exactly? Will they ever be apart of the main mission, or just a side mission for bonus XP, anyone got anything on this?

I think it would be really neat to make the carry objective for the offense and it would give them 2 or 3 minutes of bonus time.

Time is very precious. Especially when dealing in a game type like Stopwatch when time is the deciding factor of victory. If you have free time, you can accomplish these carry missions to extend time for the entire group. adding a minute or so to the time is just as precious as no time. Or if the bonuses are a ammo increase or radar buff. If you can memorize the map enough times to find the quickest or safest route, then go for it. Your deed won't go unnoticed nor will the exp payout be anything shy of fantastic!

None the less, take everything I say with a grain of salt till the game comes out.
Regardless, yet another way to cash in some quick exp for those nice clothing gear you always wanted :disguise:

the D may need to carry things too.

it could very well increase the time though

i think every game has that main objective but if you what to cut off the other team you can become an eng and go make a wall or a mg nest to help your team with the whole all objective the game is going to be game there is a little bit for everyone to do in the game its not about who can get the most kills or anything i see this game is all about team with if you every play TF2 its a little like that. but you just have to find out what you are best at the class and type of part you play to help your team and win.
but remember im going off what i know and have seen in game play, just have to wait for the full version come out in 5 days.

I think the time bonus would be a really cool idea.

Carry Objectives aren't secondary objectives.. at least if they are like past SD games, they are primary objectives that require one team to bring an item from one area in the map to another and are usually the final parts of an objective sequence of missions. I think most of you are thinking about the side missions that the game was going to have to allow losing teams to try and battle back, but I remeber reading in an interview that those were cut. But yeah, think capture the flag, or retrieve the documents if you played RTCW back in the day.

But what will the actual objectives be? will the carry objectives just be bonus XP, or like a crucial part of the game?

It's like CTF. You grab something and carry it to another point. It might be something like a key to a door, unlocking the next area.

I've heard somewhere that there will be an objective where if someone is REALLY svcking, then they will be given a special mission that will benefit the team BIG TIME. Only they can do the objective and its like a CTF thing where if they get the item the other team will go "oh &$%! they got the item" and will go for them and the receiving team must help the guy out. Not positive but this is what I've heard. :thumbsup:
