idea for survival mode
« on: September 10, 2006, 02:34:25 pm »
this is mainly for survival + deathmatch/team match.

you get extra points for surviving.

i dont know how much it should be, but 0 bonus points isnt really that much insentive for staying alive.

What a great idea! Though I haven't seen many survival deathmatches.

Long live Nazi-Communism!

Well yeah this is a good idea, but there kinda is reasons for staying alive already

1) one less death (by echo_trail)

2) dont have to wait for the others to die until you can carry on fighting

- I think if Survival is turned on in a CTF, TDM game then the team that survives should receive 1 point to the team points but not give a extra kill point to the survivor(s), and if its a DM game then the player that survives would receive 2 extra kill points and i dunno about RAM, PM, HTF maybe the same as CTF and TDM?

i can just see 2 people teaming up and not killing each other so that they always win if they are last 2 left.

gold, i guess you havent played survival mode since 1.3.1 came out.

they added in that everyone dies at the end of the round (doesnt count towards your death), so that everyone can respawn at the same time. this addition prevented annoying spawn camping, and flag camping (in ctf, spawning on the flag and running to your flag)

having one less death doesnt do much to helping you win (getting more points), its just for better K: D ratio. i just think like an extra 5 points or something would help the survivals feel more "rewarded" for staying alive

as for survival deathmatches and stuff, u13 has one. and i think theres a couple team matches.

I play survival on 1.3.1 everyday on Dodgeball, and i knew all that, but if you are alive then you dont have to sit there watching the others fight
