We've had several CoD killstreaks added as concepts. Just wondering what other people's take on this is. Should SAM Turrets and Care Packages just be objects, or as a killstreak reward, do they qualify as a concept as well?
Killstreaks as Concept Pages
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Sorry if I created these in the wrong type. I thought about creating them as objects, but to me they don't really seem like objects.
" @TMThomsen said:These are all proper answers." Killstreak is a concept, but the specific unlocks are objects. "Yeah, that's what I would say as well. "
Another way to go with this would be to create/update the Killstreak Rewards page with all of the specific killstreaks as aliases.
Or genericize that stuff as much as possible. "Surface-to-air missile" or "SAM launcher" or "SAM turret" is probably a reasonable page, since all sorts of military games feature them.
If someone had a whole lot to say about the way they work in the COD games, a "Call of Duty Killstreak Rewards" page might even make sense. But it'd have to be a fantastic page to justify something that weirdly specific. That data could just as easily live on the game pages for each game that contains them.
But the napalm strike is a kill streak, and in this case would probably best be committed to one of Jeff's ideas, like making it an alias of a Kill Streak Reward page." @Hailinel said:
" @Ignor said:But a strike isn't. "" Don't delete the Napalm Strike one! "Technically, napalm is an object. "
EDIT: That is, unless you can think of a number of games that feature napalm strikes in general.
" @Hailinel said:But it's still an act of using napalm. A specific weapon. And the manner in which it's commonly deployed is an air strike." But the napalm strike is a kill streak, and in this case would probably best be committed to one of Jeff's ideas, like making it an alias of a Kill Streak Reward page. "The Napalm strike is also in some of the Worms games. "
" I still think the concepts are marginally different. In Worms Armageddon, Napalm strikes are affected by wind and has a more lasting effect on the environment, as opposed to the Air Strikes of that game. "Still you are striking with napalm in an aerial fashion. It's no different than launching missiles from a SAM turret. You are utilizing the weapon in the manner that it was designed.
