Before posting suggestions or complaints for Chaos Faction, be aware that most of them will have already been covered on the old forum.
Here are the most common things people say that we're sick of:
  • Multiplayer: We know. It would be awesome. Unfortunately it's just not feasible with the technology we have. Same-computer MP is probably the best you're likely to get.
  • Level Editor: Walls and hazards (rocks, gravity etc). These will be included in CF2.
  • Music Mute button: Because jorj thinks nobody could possibly get bored of his music. I'll make him put it in the next one.
  • Character Names: You will get to name your character in CF2.
  • Character Customization: Customization options in CF2 will be extended to include accessories and some other features.
  • New Characters: We'll have some new characters in CF2, and I won't stop you posting whatever ideas you have. But be aware, NO COPYRIGHTED CHARACTERS. I don't care how cool you think naruto or sonic or whatever is, it's not our property and it's not our style to rip off more popular franchises, ok? Also check the CF2 thread to make sure we haven't already got your idea.
  • New Weapons: Again, there will be some new weapons, feel free to post ideas. But for reference, '____ gun' is not cool. A gun that shoots out sporks or penguins or cupcakes! what a novel idea! NO.
  • Character Bonuses/Special moves: I do quite like this idea, but at the moment it's too much work to plan and execute properly. Similarly, anything else which requires us to change the basic game engine is out.

I'm refining my earlier estimate of of one million ghosts, down to several thousand. It is still a cause for concern.

Yes, but they might think it's awesome whereas we think it stinks

That wouldn't work.
1. What about all of the mixes between characters?
2. Mechalo would be way too powerfull with an unlimited laser gun.
3. I dunno. 3's just one of my lucky numbers.

what we're planning to do is for CF:A have a 'special' weapon for each character, but not an unlimited one - i.e. when a character they gets a special crate, they get whatever their special weapon is. in multiplayer mode you'd be able to pick your character's special weapon, and in melee mode the AI would all have random special weapons.
I'm refining my earlier estimate of of one million ghosts, down to several thousand. It is still a cause for concern.

As long as there is still a randomizer. And make there a special weapon randomizer too.

Before posting suggestions or complaints, be aware that most of them will have already been covered on the old forum.
Here are the most common things people say that we're sick of:
  • Multiplayer: We know. It would be awesome. We're working on a multiplayer version (CF: Arena), without much luck admittedly.
  • Level Editor: Walls and hazards (rocks, gravity etc). Again, we'll try to include these in CF:A.
  • Music Mute button: Because jorj thinks nobody could possibly get bored of his music. I'll make him put it in the next one.
  • Names: Obviously if we ever get around to making this online version, we'll need unique names anyway.

please don't forget the sound FX mute button
