I personally think it would be best if you add vehicles. (testing it now, I know I loved the original)

EDIT: It's amazing! But it could use more maps and such. For example:

Guns: You could use some more weapons

Grappling hook- will pull units towards you to pull them into cliffs and can be used to maneuver you across the map.

Rifle- would be like the sniper except less damage, shorter range, and faster reload.

Grenade launcher- Will launch grenades at low angles and fast speeds

Rocket launcher- I've always wondered where the rocket launcher was in ET​

Game modes: The worst thing about ET1 is that there is only capture the flag, please try to not follow these footsteps. Try to add different game modes

Slayer- First team to acquire so many points

Eliminator- Would be a FFA where there is only one gun that is a one hit kill​

These are just examples of some things you could add to the game. But above adding all those things, you should add some Unreal tournament like vehicles. That would be cool.

I'll help or test if you ever need it.

I still think you should change the minimap! :/

I always loved that preview pic.
In the future thou perhaps a new one, but it will have to be a very good one :p

Heh, well maybe someday. Perhaps the steam tank or something.

- Grappling Hook could be interesting, but perhaps a little awkward.
- For rifle, theres the Phase Pistol, it has a low range & low cooldown, try it out.
- Grenade Launcher, well in future versions each gun may get a secondary/alternative fire, so a launch grenade could go nicely on the Shrapnel Gun.
- Rocket Launcher, yes I'm keen on adding one but need some ideas on how it would work & what woudl make it unique.

Game modes: The worst thing about ET1 is that there is only capture the flag, please try to not follow these footsteps. Try to add different game modes

Slayer- First team to acquire so many points

Yea I've added a Team Deathmatch Arena in next ver. Gave it a few tests already.
It works out quite well but is a little boring, so I'm hoping to add a little extra to make it more appealing.

You should make some powerfull weapon which does after damage if you hit the unit or some lightning gun which slows/stuns/purges.

I personally think it would be best if you add vehicles.
Adding vehicles in a good way would be hard.

I dont think there should be any games like deathmatch or ffa generally, theres really no meaning in mindless killing which doesnt require much strategy at all.
It would also end up with alot of camping and kill stealing, like some guys battling at middle then some sniper guy shoots both of em since they are on low hp.
I think you should stick to special team games like CTF, control points, assault or something funny team based which requires a little of strategy.


I got an idea for making gameplay a little unique.
I dont know if you removed the level thingy or not, but heres a little different idea of using hero levels.
For every level you gain (meaning 2-3 kills for each level) you will walk slower and slower, but you will have increased bounty from the kills by each level.
For poeple who wouldnt want this could turn it on/off at start.

Yea, I've been testing TDM mode online a bit, it is fairly boring :/
I'm hoping to add something in there to make it alittle more exciting & ofcourse open to suggestions!

Supermj said:
Well.. you could make a mode like VIP where each team has 1 VIP that can't attack and has 200 health and the goal is to be the first team to kill the opponent vip (they can be moved)

Not to sure about that, but there could be a survivor/overrun mode.

How it works:
- Each player gets 1 life, the teams fight it out until 1 team is dead, then a new round starts.
- Ofcourse there would be say a 2min time limit per round, so if
- At end of each round each team gains 1 point per ppl who is still alive
- After X rounds, team with most points wins the game.

Pretty simple, focuses strongly on teamwork & co-operation & goes slightly beyond mindless killing & the main objective is to survive.

Thoughts?

Besides the bug report I gave on the helper (Daskunk) it seemed OK. Haven't gotten good a chance to play it becuas of that bug, though.

yea thx for the bug report, its fixed in next ver.

1 mode that i often enjoy in games is Zone Control.
Put like 5 "Zones" around the map and whenever a unit stays near it for 3 seconds it will turn to his teams color. For each second passing the teams will get points equal to numbeer of zones conquered. First to 500 points wins!
(number of points were just randomly made up, that may require some work)

Anyway this is a nice teamwork mode that is not based on mindless killing but more "tactical killing":razz:

Or maybe a Control Point type game mode, like in Team Fortress 2. So there are about 5 points: 1 for each team (2 teams) and 3 neutral points and you cant capture the other team's point untill your team controlls all the 3 neutral points. The game is over when one team has all points.

  • Tips
    - Random Tips now display every so often, giving useful hints & advice.

    - Booster cost increased from 15 to 20.
    - Sniper, damage increased from 50 to 55.
    - Shrapnel Gun now deals 40 damage on a direct impact else 25 medium splash + 12 small splash per shard.

I like the way the game is going towards now, for example by making the upgrades (boots, gloves, etc.) free.
Then you can make funny combos with the guns such as shotgun and boots for hit & run, sniper and regen for camping or smg and faster reload for multi-combat situations.
Anyway theres still things that should be nerfed.

My opinions on items/upgrades:
-Shotgun: Pushback variates much i see, but sometimes u get pushed far far away even when your not even close to the shooter.
-Phasergun: It seems it deals 60 damage due to amplifier, when it actually says it deals 40 damage, so i suggest you fix it! ;)
-Minigun: The range is really too far and dmg is extreme, if you stay just a little in the rain your gonna lose about 60-120 hp.
-Boots: 40 ms seems a little too much really, even though it doesnt seem your walking that fast, but anyway 25-35 ms would be best i think.
-Phase thingy, cant remember name: I dont know if its too imba yet since people never really uses it, but what if a guy takes a flag then the moment before he scores he uses it.
Wouldnt he in a way then almost become invulnerable?
-Acid: Poison make you too slow, either duration or slowness should go off a bit.

Also im not sure wether you removed bounty or not, but hell you never get any gold at all to shop for.
If you do increase the gold make sure to balance the map because more gold = more items = more chaos >:D = arenas need to be bigger!

Keep up the good work, i like the new speed of the gameplay! :p

Shotgun: Pushback variates much i see, but sometimes u get pushed far far away even when your not even close to the shooter.

Its starts off at 400 & gains +50 for every other bullet that hits you. Theres 8 bullets in total, so potentially 750, although very hard to get that.

You're right thou, perhaps I'll update it a little so the distance bullets travel diminishes the push back a tiny bit.

Phasergun: It seems it deals 60 damage due to amplifier, when it actually says it deals 40 damage, so i suggest you fix it! ;)

Hmmm?
Yea its meant to do that, quite strange you ask why :p
Deals 40 damage, if amplified gains +50% damage, so 60?

Minigun: The range is really too far and dmg is extreme, if you stay just a little in the rain your gonna lose about 60-120 hp.

Hmm well, I always pwn Minigunners, so not real sure about a nerf.
There very easy to take down, just annoying if they get in a tactical position & spam.

Boots: 40 ms seems a little too much really, even though it doesnt seem your walking that fast, but anyway 25-35 ms would be best i think.

Well the other Add Ons are very strong as well, 40 is only like +15% move speed.

Phase thingy, cant remember name: I dont know if its too imba yet since people never really uses it, but what if a guy takes a flag then the moment before he scores he uses it.
Wouldnt he in a way then almost become invulnerable?

Ah yea I wouldn't say thats imba thou.
Remember thou grenades ar eun effected by the Phase, so the'll annhiliate him.

Acid: Poison make you too slow, either duration or slowness should go off a bit.

It rapidly wears off, returning movement speed.
So starts off very big, but dimishes.

Also im not sure wether you removed bounty or not, but hell you never get any gold at all to shop for.
If you do increase the gold make sure to balance the map because more gold = more items = more chaos >:D = arenas need to be bigger!

Hmm, I always have to much gold, I could increase it a little.
New Arena's of different shapes & sizes will be added :p

Well isnt the amplifier supposed to take effect after you hit someone, else you might aswell just set the damage to 60 and remove amplifier.
I thought it was a gun made for supporter situations, but now its... "just-another-average-gun", see what i mean?

Hmm well, I always pwn Minigunners, so not real sure about a nerf.

No seriously i deals way to far damage and with that bullet length increaser (which should just get removed).

Ah yea I wouldn't say thats imba thou.
Remember thou grenades ar eun effected by the Phase, so the'll annhiliate him.
Well what if you dont have any grenades because you only could afford 1 because of the little gold you get and you've already used it???
This item is far too imba and is like a normal invulnerability potion item, thats why it should be removed.
It may seem like a cool feature to you, but you should seriously consider removing it.

It rapidly wears off, returning movement speed.
So starts off very big, but dimishes.
I dont think you know how much people got raped by that gun yesterday when i played with Taur and Raging, if ur 2+ in a group your going down (which in ET1 would be pretty easy to survive).

Hmm, I always have to much gold, I could increase it a little.
New Arena's of different shapes & sizes will be added :p
Lets compare the gold in ET1 to ET2, in each time i respawn...
In ET1 i could afford 3 nades/medi packs + 1+ stun and in ET2 (with same amount of kills and time passed) i could afford only 2 nades/medi packs.
Well in version 0.99 or whatever it was the bounty was 2 gold and im not sure what your using now, but you should increase it to 6-12 gold.

Also you should remove the bullet length increaser add-on aswell.
Just like with that phase thingy it may seem like a cool feature, but actually just fucks up the game.
For example:
Shotgun + bullet increaser = aint no shotgun anymore, too imba.
Minigun + bullet increaser = sniper minigun, nice! xD
Sniper + bullet increaser = do you need this?
Laser + bullet increaser = again do you really need it?
Phaser + bullet increaser = nice, now you got a sniper + more dmg!
Acid or SMG + bullet increaser = ok maybe the only items it works average with...
Shrapnel + bullet increaser = havent tested...

ALERT ALERT. I mysterioulsy stopped spawning after my 20 something death. the other players continued respawning, but me blue, didnt. and also, some people think the sniper is bugged, it does like 90 damage without double damage.

Yea Ive seen that respawn bug appear before, I'll try & fix it.
Sniper deals 50 damage, it can be enhanced with Explosive Shells, Double Damage & if target is Phased.

The scope needs to keep the range the same as it usually is. The speed boost is fine enough...

Perhaps I'll split them up, I'd really like to keep the range boost as an AddOn thou.

===

@Nudl9

I didn't notice your reply, else I would have replied sooner.
I'll be releasing a new ver here very shortly which has alot of changes/tweaks, many of which address the things youve spoken about.

I dont know is this a bug or something, but if you take a flag in crossroads and have about 3-4 boosters, you can fly with them over camera boundaries and then nobody can actually know where you and the flag is.

It was verison 1.1 when I played. :i

No, thats a bug with the system, which is beyond my control. If however, I find a better system to use in the future, it should go way.
But I did add a "-revive" command, where you can debug/forcefully revive yourself if it happens, although its quite rare.

The physics system, it very rarely causes units to vanish but not actually be dead.
This causes the revive system bugs up.

So I added a backup command -revive.
Although I think I just may have the cause of the physics system bug now.

Lol oops, i ment GaDDeN... always get them mixed up. If it's true they've both quit wc3 then I'm glad you are continueing it. Contact the ET clans and tell them to play your map as it's continueing, and reg' ET isn't.

So does this actually use SEE now, or still iNfraNe's modified system?

I would really like to, but still iNfraNe's system atm.
It's just I had a few probs with SEE, such as:
- I cant just have a separate trigger per weapon/gadgets etc. in its own trigger.
- Not many showcase examples in the test map :-(

I'll give it another try thou & once I get the hang of it, I'll try to implement it.
But would be very nice you added some more examples :p

Just tell me what you need and I'll tell you how to make it. :p

You CAN have separate gadgets/weapons in its own trigger. I just designed the system so that they would all be kept organized in a library, but all of the content of that library is NOT private, so it can be accessed anywhere. Thus, you can place your weapon/gadget definitions anywhere.

I think. :p

Probably the best map I've ever played or at least one of the best maps.
What you have to add is:
---Bombing Run mode (Play UT2003, you should REALLY have to make this)
---Computer AI (if possible)
---1 or more vehicles (maybe)
---Also I think you may use a weaponless marine model and weapons should have displayed on our character, there are tons of excellent weapon models

Thx for the feedback, much appreciated.

ZsG.Zexix's idea: if you fall down from a cliff that is 2 or 3+ cliff levels higher u damage yourself.

That's an interesting idea, but I'm a bit split on this.

- Next update, I will be concentrating on a new mode + new Arena's to go along side it.
- AI would be awesome, but will take to long & be to complicated to code.
- Vehicles are always a possibility, most likely being specifically for a new Arena.
- If I could get a modeller I'd definitely do that, but they are hard to find :p
