Title: Changes/Improments/Suggestions
Post by: byrnie on January 23, 2009, 12:43:59 AM
Been a lil while since anyone has posted what works and what hasn't as far as keeping people in our GG servers.

One suggestion/question I had was the knife syphon mod. Being a turbo server, the incentive to pull out the knife is, sadly, reduced quite a bit, and that was my favorite part of a non Turbo server. One way to encourage more knifings would be to add the knife syphon mod; for every knife kill you get, your health is restored by a certain amount. Is that something we could add, assuming people are interested?

Also something else I thought was cool: The warm up round with scouts and knives only, and also lasting an extra ten seconds or so. I am guessing many people would be opposed as the scout is rather unpopular, but I like it and figured I would at least throw it out there.

Don't know if it's ok for me to post something like this as I cannot make changes, but I figured it couldn't hurt to get some more discussion going. The more people we can draw the better! Any other suggestions for tweaks that may help increase server traffic? (sorry if I am not allowed to post this and go ahead and lock it if you have to  :-D)

Suggestions are always good! I like the Syphon idea, that sounds bad ass! The scout idea I'd have to play a bit. Maybe one scout one bullet? That would be funny.

Byrnie, you are always welcome to make threads like this.  This is how ideas come up that might help the server.  I too like the idea of the syphon mod.  Maybe Fraggle or Holy can put up a vote about it after finding the plugin.

Syphon mod sounds like fun...As for the Scout, Hells yeah! It would be like a mini scoutzknivez map  :blob:

yea, scoutzknives should definitely be on the rotation.  Bloodarena too...not sure if it already is.  I'll try to find a few sounds to add as well. 

I think a theme song or something like James Bond could be played during the final knife fight and a few other sound mods could be added like the dave chappelle " gotchya bitch "

I will talk to fraggle a bit ans see what he would like to do... I would not mind finding a knife syphon mod to put on the server to test it out... I will have to be able to play alot around the time added because new stuff tends to crash the server for some reason... I can change the knife round time but idk how to change the defult weapon to a scout i looked over the code and couldn't find where to change the defult weapon... I will put a poll up and see what everyone thinks lol... The sounds would be really cool to have, but the last time i added sounds to the server they conflicted with the config and crashed the server :(... If anyone knows how to maybe make this not happen i would love to hear them out.
