Ive recently been wondering what it would be like for an innocent to get stuff from menus. Like a detective or a Traitor. Obviously, the items from the menus wouldnt be too extreme, (Example: no knives or powerful weapons.) i have a few ideas for weapons and items in the menu, one of them being the ability to buy default weapons (M16, Desert Eagle, Sniper Rifle, H.U.G.E, Mac10, Pistol, Incendiary, Discombobulator, Etc...).

another idea i have is DoubleTap Where for 25 seconds after a player dies (provided the killer is/was within 15 feet away) it will say who killed him (like him saying who killed him right before he dies, kind of like last words) ALso, if the fatal wound was a headshot, it will not appear, and it will dissapear if the traitor (or some idiot)  shoots the body. (in wich, would lose them karma if they were innocent)

And, if you were wondering, the only way innocents would get credits is by killing a traitor or defusing a C4 or other acts that prove ones innocency.

Even i think this idea needs a little work... maybe a LOT of work... but i dont think its too bad.

The concept itself adds unnecessary complexity to an already pretty complex game. The specific example you gave is a very, very bad idea. It effectively renders stealthy kills impossible except through out-of-the-blue sniping.

Innocents should have an option of choosing between lower gravity or higher speed :3

The example i gave meant the INNOCENTs coulnt buy kinves and high powered weapons, traitor menus remain the same.

If innocents could buy weapons then we wouldnt need weapons on maps.
And what would they buy with, credits? Then traitors would never get credits off dead traitors. And if innocents had credits, traitors could buy everything by getting those credits, and innocents could have a weapon all the time by getting each others credits.
Sorry cant work.

Welcome to the ZM forums.  :D

And that is unrelated to my criticism.

1. Allowing innocents to buy things makes it yet more complex.

2. Allowing innocents to buy a 25-second reveal-you-if-you-kill-me win button is a bad idea.

shoot/crowbar the body afterwards, thus the name, "Double Tap"

Then it becomes useless because the traitor would just shoot the body

Not entirley, i mean, there will be traitors that forget or cant find a chance to because of others around him notacing. But theres a low chance of the innocent even having doubletap in the first place, Remeber, making the innocent weapons not to useful for game balace sake.

Why would a traitor kill an innocent in front of another innocent?

Not in front of, but around, for example, say a traitor kills an innocent in a room, and there s a innocent in another room next to it the traitor would  have to get out of that room before the ohter innocent goes in there to find out what happened.  Another senario (dont think i spelled that right) would be if you pushed someone off a building, you would not have enough time to jump on the ledge and shoot the body without anyone looking up to see you do it.

Taking a second shot with practically any weapon in TTT takes no time at all.

Why do half the suggestions made seem to be "I am bad at this game, make it easier for me."? Just without fully admitting that is the cause of the idea.

Get off my lawn you rotten kids!
Nah, he's just being 'correct'. It's just JossiRossi's way of dealing with it.

This is simply to make being innocent more fun. Its boring as hell not being able to really do anything as innocent but die

How would a CS purchase menu and the fact traitors will shoot you one extra time make it more fun?
