Camouflage

<< < (2/5) > >>

Numsgil:
Well, bots can always keep their white eye.  That would be pretty cool.  "Hey, where'd all my bots go?  And why are there all these energy shots floating aroun--  Oh."

Ulciscor:
I don't get why they actually need to change colour, the effect could just be in respect to other bots. Maybe a bot camouflaging itself could fade slightly just so you could see what it was doing but a complete colour change is going to look a bit weird...
And yeah it would be a very potent weapon for DB but it would also be an expensive one to use or would have drawbacks, such as the inability to shoot when camouflaged.

Numsgil:
The main problem I see is that currently, bots either see something or they don't.  There's no gradation.  A camouflage system works best in an environment where being offgreen in a green environment is worse than being perfectly green but better than being neon yellow.

Stryke:
Camoflage? I'm guessing you mean blending in with the background. Hopefully you don't mean invisibility, because that would detract from the biology part of it. I guess it would be a great combat strategy, but it's just not natural. If you mean blending in w/ the background, it would require DB to have a background color the robots could determine and defining colors the Dbots would have and see.

Numsgil:
Well, as near as I can tell camouflage is invisibility be definition.  Invisibility - can't be seen.  If you're camouflaged well, you can't be seen.
