7 Ideas To Help Synergy Get Back On Its Feet

1. Restore health back to 100 upon respawn, plus 15 - 25 suit charge

Why: because it's very easy to die with 60 hp, plus the reduced capacity of the servers means that theres not that many people in a server to cover mission specific npc's underfire leading into an instant failure and server crash because of the bugged checkpoints, plus its frustrating as hell and should have never been done in the first place.


2. More than 1 ammo clip per gun upon respawn
Why: we have more or less no ammo upon respawn and this does not promote supporting your team mates it just makes the game all the more frustrating mixed with the problem below, we should atleast get full ammo for the pistol and the mp7 just to survive, granted you should never have any rpg ammo upon respawn for obivious reasons


3. Re-rig up Auto weapon switching up upon running out of ammo

Why: plus this mixed in with the above problem makes the game a hell of a lot more frustrating than it should have been because as soon as you run out of ammo it stays on that weapon forcing you to manually look for one of your weapons that actually has ammo in the middle of a firefight leading to either loosing most of your health or dying in the process also making the game needlessly frustrating at the same time


4. Disable checkpoints all together
Why: checkpoints cause most of the server crashes making you disconnect from the server your playing on alot

and theres no need for them as a mass suicide is all thats needed to restart the level when it glitches so this is just a needlessly complicated solution to this that makes the game even more unstabled and for that it should be removed.


5. Increase server capacity from 10 to 20
Why: It's just more fun to play with more than 10 people and while 30 is uruley 15 - 20 would be the perfect ammount and would allow all of your friends to play on yoru server at the same time rather than having 4 or 5 waiting to get in like it is now or was before v14.


6. Make a proper healer
Why: because healing 5 hp at a time takes alot of time, just about a minute or so to even get fully healed and slows everything down, the best kind of healer I've seen in is in oc where you can drop your med pacs for a quick 25, or heal someone completely in about 20 - 30 seconds


7. Fix the disapearing weapons problem
Decription: the 357, shotgun, crossbow, rpg and even the gravity gun all disapear from your inventory at intermediate periods throught the HL2 campaign and trust me this is annoying and it needs to be fixed.


and just a side note the OC development team has said they dont give a shit about the hl2 - ep2 campaigns as is its and they are focusing primarily on custom ones so if you fix eveything on this list and make it known that these problems have been delt with synergy will surely get back on its feet and back to its pre v11 standing
