    Receive Bacon.

    Bacon is rare. Like cocaine, I am addicted to it. Thus, the Bacon trade would be a profitable business venture, considering its supply is way low and demand is way high.

    there should be machines dispensing bacon for 1000 dolla, you put it in, wait about ten seconds, then bacon pops out and OM NOM NOM. These machines would be contained inside the spawn room, or somewhere else if anyone has a better suggestion (e.g. a place not next to the juice machines).

    Magikarp wants Bacon.

    disagree. it would be cool, but then anyone on a killstreak would be buying bacon and it would make endorsements useless.

    Hmmm...

    how about one strip per machine?
    It could put a bit more to the value of money, trying to get 1000 before some guy on your team does.

    This is more of a guaranteed bacon idea, in an ideal world there would be one strip per match.

    I agree there needs to be more bacon. I don't agree with fancy machinery dropping bacon. I'll crawl through the mutilated husk of a jackbot or chop of one of bullseyes legs to find bacon, not waltz up to some fancy machine.

    what about a random bacon drop from the bacon gods?

    There are no bacon gods. Bacon IS god.

    Since you lose bacon when you die this idea will mostly benefit the best players, I know that there are already game mechanics, such as kill streak cash, that support the better players, but I wouldn't like to see it go further. Don't neglect the newer members of the community. They want to enjoy themselves too.

    Either $3000 or $2500 to buy Bacon.

    Then what's the point?

    Bezique, I want to see more bacon, this is my answer, however flawed. I'd appreciate it if you could find a better idea.

    Deadpool, I do prefer those over machines, except there's like a zero percent chance of finding bacon. I suggest we raise it.

    There's really no fair way to make bacon more available in my opinion.

    Dispensers? It'd just make public games less fun.

    Increase the drop rate by a fixed amount? Well then everyone's got bacon and it's no longer significant.

    Time-related drop rate boosts? Nah. If it's more likely earlier on it'll just add to the imbalance of pub games and if it's more likely later on it's increasingly moot since everyone's on bacon come OT.



    If you want more bacon, just kill the mascot more :twisted:

    If there must be more, perhaps bacon could continue to spawn as few times as it does, but in crossfire mode when you pick it up you get it for the duration of the match instead of one life.

    It'll make that individual very good for that game, but having good endorsements only goes so far.

    Better yet, as that may be overpowered, once you die you have silver of all endorsements (except your selected gold one) and then next time bronze (except the gold and silver ones).

    That is I am afraid the best I can come up with.

    Well, balancing something like that would be nightmare. Finding the comfortable middle ground between OP and making it another juice endorsement...Yeah :(

    Nothing that makes it useful for competitive play, but rather for the good players who want to get the bacon tag

    Probably not a good idea, but I'll put it up anyway.
    What about a machine that one can purchase to guarantee a bacon drop from a bot. That way if you have cash lying around you have the chance to get bacon but its not guaranteed that you'll get it

    Increase bacon drop machine, for 500-1000.
    Credit to Tank Shadows for inspiring the idea.

    Bezique's idea is nice, gold then silver then bronze.
