Zombie Survival game mode [arena style]
« on: January 01, 2010, 02:33:06 am »
When imagining this game mode, imagine something like Timesplitters.

10 weaponless zombies + 10 boogie man's (zombies with chainsaws) vs. 4 players in a tight-ass three room arena.

Win: Kill 100 zombies.
Lose: Die a combined total of 100 times.

Out of the 3 rounds I played, I won once with three bots on my team. Yes, it is waypointed for both players and zombies. Honestly, I found it to be quite fun.

The maps have to be made specifically for this idea, and fortunately my little Left 4 Dead sewers map made the cut.

I'll upload the necessities for this mini game mode next week some time.

Holy shit it's New Years Eve. I'm such a nerd. Well uh, I guess this year was just destined to end nerdy... shit.

Ah don't worry about it. A lot of us in the mapping department are nerds ;)

OnTopic: You didn't specify how many player spawns there should be, given the size of the map(s). Is it really up to the mapper's decision or should it be pointed out as well?

And also, I really enjoy making small maps, because they don't take up as much time as the bigger map projects do, and I can easily keep the idea in my head this way. :)

God damn man nice going! The project is getting close to success, except it's not L4D anymore. But still, nice idea. Are you gonna host a server or just put out the script and map.

We did similiar mod with my friends and we called it "Zombie infection" And it's quite like in cs.
It didn't quite work with bots, but it was damn fun with many players.

-Big maps with few tight "safe" spots.
-One dude spawns to bravo as zombie with 2000hp. Rest players goes to aplha with normal hp.
-When bravo dude kills an alpha he becomes zombie too.
