Title: Mission Mod
Post by: LodeBomber on August 04, 2007, 01:35:22 am

I got some idea for a mod, called Mission Mod.

The human will have like 1 or 2 minutes to get their equipment, after this minute, the human base will explode, so the human will cant get more ammo and cant respawn.The goal of the human will be to survive like 20 or 30 minutes.

ALREADY IN GAME

WEAPONS

Blaster        : Change to a non-energy weapon (12x20)(12x30 with Ammo Pack)
Rifle          : Same as the original with more ammo (100x6)(100x10 with Ammo Pack)
Pain Saw       : DELETED
Shot-Gun       : Shoot faster with more ammo (25x3)(25x5 with Ammo Pack)
Lasgun         : DELETED
Mass Driver    : Changed to non-energy weapon (5x4)(5x6 with Ammo Pack)
Chaingun       : more ammo (500x0)(500x2 with Ammo Pack)
Pulse Rifle    : DELETED
Flame Thrower  : more ammo (600x0)(900x0 with Ammo Pack)
Lucifer Cannon : Changed to a Rocket Luncher (1x4)(1x6 with Ammo Pack)

ARMOR

Light Armor    : more def (x2)
Helemt         : more def (x2)
Battlesuit     : change name to Heavy Armor with more def (x2)

UPGRADES

Battery Pack   : Changed to an Ammo Pack
Jet Pack       : DELETED
Medikit        : Restore hp faster
Grenade        : Explode faster (3 seconds)

ADDS-ON

WEAPONS

Medic Kit      : Restore 25 hp (1x10)

UPGRADES

Proximity Mine : Land mine does 250 damages (dont attack human)
Smoke Grenade  : Add smoke in the air (no damages)
Mini-Turret    : Put a machinegun turret (size,range and damages divided by 2)

So, tell me what you think

Hmm. Although it is original enough, I can't help but feel you are only taking away from normal gameplay. No building, no basekilling, no real incentive for the human team to attack... seems to me this would be highly likely to turn into a massive campathon, with all the humans huddling together in the window room or similar, chainguns and mass drivers pointed at the door, ready to fill anything that may enter with as much lead as they can.
To be honest, I can't imagine the ammo store lasting much longer than ten minutes, then the helpless blaster gang will last maybe another five. In the meantime, there may be a lot more waiting than playing.

Ok, maybe you substitute it so there is unlimited ammo.
Problem sorted, I mean, a luci spammer can only last so long, surely?

Man, the luci become a Rocket Luncher, so it cant spam

I guess you have never stood at an arm, holding down fire and buying ammo as necessary -- it eliminates reload times, and, at least with md, reduces wait time between shots.

The first shot does nothing.

Damn.

Anyway, what about, rather than this idea or as an extension, some variation on Jedi Academy's siege gametype?

@ Proxy mine. Dude it ought to give damage to humans. If you walked near a prox mine would you not loose a few apendages?

@ Smoke Grenade. As far as i'm concerned most of the maps i've played that had "smoke" or "steam" in them reduced my FPS by atleast 35%+. So making a 'Smoke Grenade" I am willing to be that most will encounter a signifigant reduce in FPS. Having said that i really thing the Smoke Grenade thinger is a waste of time and hard work.

(JUST MY HONEST OPINION!)

The whole thing can be made within a map.

I don't think it's necessary to add the mines and all the custom add-ons. I already thought about making such kind of a "survivor map", and that's part of my new map Rewolf. At some point, your base is not available so you need to use a LOT of teamplay to prevent deaths, "out-of-ammos", "shitnoez no more HP help" and more.

I do not condone any of this. First of all 'Mission Mod'. Where's the goddamn mission?
At least survivor map comes close in naming its intent correctly. But the essence of that map means in public play only friends would play it the right way. And until a stopwatch mode is available clans will avoid it.
If I may make a suggestion it should be that you have several single player recharge points for ammo and health which take a long time to recharge. Spread them around the map so the humans would be forced to go around reloading and healing. But since there are few you can't reload and heal everyone.

For this you would need a HUD with a little countdown in it.

I like the idea of rocket-lancher, I would love to slam a shell into a rant, be so great (not for the rant)

Imho, this would not need a modification, can be done in a map with some scripting.

Yes, but some servers prefer 25 minute sd 35 minute matches and others prefer 55 minute sd and unlimited time matches. A map however can only be made suitable for a very small range of time planning. And most server ops wouldn't go through the trouble to correct the maprotation to fit the maps needs.

I used smilar system on aliens in my map "Objective:Infected" that disabled building for aliens but also had button (wich humans atempt to press as an objective) that destroys the spawns in loction no one has access to (aliens spawn and automaticly teleport to the difrent locations of the map).
