Put Mercenaries as Base guards

<< < (3/3)

Badger:
I'm not talking about what's plausible in terms of what you can pay people with guns to do. I just think allowing players to buy as many NPC auto-attack sentry guns as they can afford and then being allowed to dump them wherever they like does not make good gameplay; losing a fight because your opponents have set up a dozen alts worth of mercs is just awful.

I do not think mercs should be anywhere near as autonomous as they are.

Andr3aZ:
This reminds me of Orphans packing Den full of combatslaves :D

But yeah if its only tents and bases and limited number i support NPC guards. +1

You know badger, if someone really sets they're mind to it, even if mercenaries were completely removed, if you can block/spoof a few IPs, and can get 3-4 game clients running at the same time + aimbots, you could still have a tent trap next to NCR, this suggestion actually makes it better to not just dump hordes of mercenaries on alts, but to add them as guards to a base, which could then be scripted and made smarter so you wouldn't have to tell them to insta kill people.
