New page

This is for the hint ideas we had. I.e. UT style hints that are displayed while the player is waiting for the map to load. This may be scrapped, it just depends.

This page can also contain things relating to ingame hints -- i.e. hints displayed as the user actively plays the game and is given hints depending on his or her actions. E.g. a hint on how to repair a sentry gun when it gets damaged.

 If a Hint requires its own page, use the prefix Hint:.  Each hint should have a criteria for activation (E.g. Sentry gun health < 100%), a description of what the hint actually does (E.g. audio. Tells the player to equip the spanner by selecting slot one, then strike the sentry gun with the spanner to repair it) as well as any other pertinent information.

 These ideas are basically a culmination of BF2's style of doing things, but with the added ability to activate hints multiple times.  I found it very annoying that, in BF2, hints would play once and then would no longer be available.  Not everybody hears the hints the first time around!

 ==Ingame Hints==
-Ideas:
+Ingame Hints are displayed dynamically depending on what the player is doing, which weapon they are carrying, whether their health is low, if their buildables are damaged or require upgrade and so forth.
 * Each hint should be displayed / played once by default.
 * After being triggered once, the hint should be semi active.  Semi-active hints will pop up a small icon on the hud (like a lightbulb) but will not actually display/play to the player
