Facts are, we all love bacon. We certainly do, but there is the problem that we seldom get to obtain bacon in any given game. Over the course of the beta I think I got about 3 bacons in crossfire, I wouldn't be surprised if many people have never gotten bacon. So, to the proposal: I propose that bacon is made quite a lot more common that it currently is with the caveat that bacon now only grants ONE level of all endorsments. So, you'd end up with bronze everything, your bronze would become silver, your silver gold and your gold would stay gold etc. This way bacon can still remain powerful, but it's deliciousness could make its way to more of us. Perhaps it could also be added as a drop on pro kill, rather than just bullseye/juicebot/jackbot, although very uncommon. EDIT: Bacon would stack similar to speed, so if you picked up 3 bacons in a life you'd have gold everything.
I never got bacon in the Beta. I still say leave it be. It's rare because it's awesome. It doesn't drop often enough to be annoying to deal with, and when it does it's such an awesome thing that makes up for it.
I can see what Statement means. Especially in competitive context, the current implementation of bacon is sort of unbalanced. Not that it's OP, but I could easily see a bacon drop break a serious matchup because it's such a rare occurrence with such a large influence. I'm going to say I like the idea.
Even a small increase is still technically better at everything. Perhaps it could be a smaller slice of bacon!
I just dislike how big bacon is to the core concept of the game yet it is hardly seen let alone picked up. I don't get why Uber makes such a big deal about if you never see it I vote more bacon, less advantages.
I support bacon bits. Bacon bits for crossfire, whereas Bacon could remain in Blitz or just bacon bits. People die so much anyway, so having Bacon one time in a game out of 100 games I've played doesn't say too much. More Bacon = More happy people Note: To keep competitive nice and orderly and fair and what not, we do need an option to disable the bacon/bacon bits if people find it not fit for competition; kind of like juice-buying. edit: I felt like saying this Now someone else continue the quote XD.
Original xbox launch of MNC had bacon every 1-2 games, which was a little high for something which can OP you until you die, the current rate (on pc) seems rather low but at the same time it's bacon, BACON! I've found one and heard two since official launch.
The best part of bacon is how rare it is. It makes getting it better, missing it worse, and falling off the map...painful.
How about an (optional) feature where if someone carrying bacon dies on the field, they drop it for others to pick up? ala Quake's Quad Damage can be dropped for others to use if it's only partially used. Ring-outs and failing to pick up the bacon in time could eventually destroy it, and perhaps make it last a shorter time if dropped by pro death compared to when it first appears.
