What will now make this game perfect-
Tactical nuclear devices and friendly fire.
Tac nukes and friendly fire will bring forth a depth and realism to this game that has never been experienced before. Instead of you and 3 friends mobbing up on the same enemy, smacking each other wanton with your weapons, wouldn't it be cool if you took damage from your allies attacks? And when you get a 50 killstreak without getting damaged, how about you get a tac nuke that clears the level?!?!?! Of course it'd kill you and your teammates, but that's fine. use 5 E to revive! duh!
Games in the past have strongly benefitted from friendly fire and even from tac nukes! I mean look at call of duty. THEIR Combination of extreme connection issues (Which we already have now, so thats one step to success already taken!) and tac nukes plus friendly fire made their game sell millions of copies.
I say to OOO that if they really want to make this game great, push out a whole bunch of overpowered and ultra exclusive microtransaction content, give us friendly fire and tac nukes, and keep this terrible server connection issue. It'd make the game so fun, we'd run WoW into the dirt.
EDIT: I'm serious.

This is an amazing idea! Im behind this 200% but this should really be posted in the suggestions forums if it wants to be taken seriously by the Devs.

This is a terrible idea.
This is not CoD.
Stop making every game you play into CoD.
Everyone would die a lot quicker with friendly fire.
Please get off of Spiral Knights & never come back.
EDIT: I'm serious.
Yes, I'm so sure.

As for this line either he's sarcastic or, well, serious. It did feel a bit like troll, tbh. But, to the point:
This would screw bomb users and to a degree gun users. And, it would add a brand new depth and meaning on the phrase "bad groupmate". Yea, imagine a guy getting pissed on not taking a rare drop/health capsule/dunno and going ballistic. Or getting pissed by the low quality if his group, and go ballistic. Or go ballistic just for the fun of it. Not to mention sneezing with an attack charging while on a party button. Nu-hu, wouldn't work.
That said, group PvP, if it were implemented, could support friendly fire, or at least do so at specific difficulties/settings/whatever.
If you're serious, you're an idiot.
"Stop making every game you play into CoD"

Let's stick to debating the ideas and not veer off into an insultfest.
I think it's a terrible idea, unless it was only pvp oriented. perhaps it would be plausible to get a killstreak in pvp and earn a tac nuke of somekind? Otherwise, it would just be a terrible idea in the Clockworks. There is already enough explosions and deathtraps to make the Clockworks the equivalent of a Michael Bay film, so I think we all agree that it's a bad idea.

This idea is bad and you should FEEL bad.
I agree ppl who said "This is not CoD", I understand you want clear the dungeon very fast, to tell you the truth, this would bring lots chaos in the game because of a nuke bomb. We don't need nuke bombs for it or either CoD walking in, it had created bad suggestion and made a rejection. Not only that, that is violating the game's idea from CoD.
Ignore the troll thread, peoples.

I like the tac nuke idea. But instead of killing everything on the floor it should reboot the servers. It's a nuke detonated inside a hollow sphere full of moving machinery... it would not just effect the one floor.
Also, the friendly fire idea is FABULOUS! I can imagine the chaos now.. joining a random T1 group... helping them for a few minutes to get their trust... then turning and slaughtering them all while screaming a battle cry to some hairy Viking god. It would be beautiful. Should make your allies drop some of their unbound stuff though also.

No. No no no no no. NOOOOOO. No way am I agreeing with the idea to turn SK from a unique relaxing teamwork promoting game into a bog standard fast paced teamKILL promoting game. Oh and @Gwenyvier: ...You're not actually serious, are you? People would just spam the damned nuke every three minutes and ruin everyone's day.
"It'd make this game so fun, we'd run WoW into the dirt."
It'd break this game so bad, our playerbase will be run into the dirt.
"I mean look at call of duty. THEIR Combination of extreme connection issues (Which we already have now, so thats one step to success already taken!) and tac nukes plus friendly fire made their game sell millions of copies."
I mean look at COD. Everyone on the Web who has sense in them blams it like our community is blamming this idea.

Haha, of course I'm not serious suga. If my previous post was dripping with any more sarcasm I'd have to put a bucket under it. Tac nuke is downright stupid and friendly fire would make soloing a must and/or make a ton of people quit the game (friendly fire in PvP might be interesting though honestly...). Oops! The Lumber smacked you back into my Gran Faust attack and I killed you! Yea... NOT fun, and not a good way to encourage team play.
Although... watching one of the knights raise his blood stained sword to the heavens while screaming his battle cry to the hairy Viking god would be funny as hell to see.

IDK why this thread got moved to suggestions. This thread is nothing more than a statement of how almost terribly ruined the game is. My last experience with spiral knights, (yesterday) was terrible. I felt like i was wayyyyy less powerful in t2 than i used to be. I was taking TWO damage from the mini royal jellies instead of one? I have superb peircing defense already, and i was taking even more damage? I just want OOO to ruin their game completely, so i made a terribly popular idea up. Lock it if you want, but i think it was brilliant.
Oh and i'm reporting everyone that was rude enough to insult me. :]
ITT: Kids got trolled.
First of all a tactical nuke takes away the fun. Secondly, you try to watch out for allies while hacking into a hoard of monsters. Not to mention certain monsters take forever to kill by yourself, and if friendly fire is on seeing as most people use SWORDS aka close range, you'd have to attack separately. You try taking on several phantoms or a Trojan by yourself. Unless you use solely guns you'd end up hacking into each other when you tried to team up. This is a horrible idea for a game like this.
Except from the nukes, I think this is a clever idea. An optional friendly fire mode would be cool and challenging!
Honestly, no sarcasm intended. It's a valid suggestion, people.
Oohhhh!!! And we could also put it in first person and throw a FAMAS in as a weapon. And to make this idea even better, we could even get rid of out life bar and use COD's health system!!! That would totally make this game awesome!

honestly, since this is a game based off of Zelda, this isn't that far fetched...Four Swords Adventures anyone?
Though that being said, I don't think this should be implemented as a regular feature. Maybe like an event day or specific party gate, but otherwise no, joke or not.

a kill-streak to clear the level?
friendly fire?
is this cod now? WHAT HAS THIS GAME GONE INTO!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?
lolwowfailthisisoneoftheworstsuggestionsihaveeverreadnooffensebutifsomeoneactuallyputspacesinhereandreadittheyshouldgetalifeannowiamwastingyourtime!
This isn't Modern Warfare and friendly fire would get people killed even faster than they already are. They put that one in and I'm stepping.
