Game Speed
« on: June 11, 2008, 11:17:13 am »
It would be really cool if there was an option to set the game general speed. Like when you set Turbo in Unreal Tournament. I'd love to play this game with a very high speed :)

I guess it wouldn't be so hard to do, given that the game speed already changes during "bullet time".

What do you think?

PD: I don't know if it has been suggested before, I did a fast search and didn't find anything.

Well, finding a good *normal* ctf server is a bit hard sometimes...
We have zombie, tw, ttw, retarded wm (like all weapons with 0 fireint and 2558674 dmg), fistbox, hexer and other "rpg" like (lol... now it seems that exp points and stats is enough to call something rpg), real, r/s, r/s with cs maps, climb, racing... ... ... normal servers are ~ 30% of all imho (or even less).

I don't wanna see even more "original" pub servers, so F11.

From your point of view, F11 to anything, cuz you just want normal shit. Plus, it wouldn't be original, game would just be faster or slower.

Do you mean like you get a speed burst for a few seconds?
If it would be like forever fast speed, CTF games and those would be finished to fast then.

I dont know PerroAZUL it might be Cool..

Soldat is already a fast paced game. If you find you are wanting faster gameplay, go to a gather, everything is super quick in there, especially with the pros.

You can modify the speed in cod4, it's really useful on custom gamemodes on big maps (like zombie or knife only).

It's a good idea, really. I like it.

You know where this would fit? In OPTIONS.

And I really dont see how you come to the conclusion that this wouldn't fit into soldat. Soldat is a fast game, I'd just like it faster. It's not something that wouldn't fit into soldat cause the fast gameplay is part of soldat. If you don't like the idea just say "I don't like the idea", instead of not thinking and giving stupid reasons.

Plus, it's not like servers would be, like 5 times faster, because people wouldn't play those, nor would it be on by default, because it would screw people up. But, yeah, I completely and totally agree for a speed up option.

This is a good idea, but I don't support it.  I don't think it's necessary and the current Soldat issues regarding the bugs/beta should be concentrated on instead of new features since they usually invite newer ones.

Could make some unique gamemodes, but would ruin Soldat imo. But that ties along with gravity modifiers, which is being implemented; so what the heck, why not?
