What about a flight powerup?

Not sure how it would work, but it would have to have some limitations, like you would sparkle so everyone could easily see you and you would stand out as a target.

a "giant" powerup where your model actually scales up like 1.3x or 1.5x and you are bigger than everyone else, and you move a little faster and perhaps take more damage...and if anyone touches you then they bounce away as if you hit them with a laser.

Downsides
- You are heavier so laser/rocket/etc jumping doesn't get you as far, and you can't jump as high, and the grapple doesn't pull you as well.
- You can hurt teammates if they bump into you. If no team damage setting is on, then you receive damage from bumping into teammates.
- You can't fit into the same spaces as everyone else because you are bigger.



WHERE do you americans get these idea's from...is there some kind of jacket in the US military that makes people bounce / blow up when it touches the 'enemy'?

if so why haven't i seen it!

no offence :P

but i'd rather not change into the incredible hulk

An emulation powerup

Where you look slightly like your enemies wearing something close to their color...but not exactly their color. If you are on the blue team, then you would be change into a reddish-orange color. If people glanced at you in a crowded room, then you may get away with being seen as one of their team. If you are on the red team, then you would switch to a slighty purplish-blue color for a while.

It could fool some people but not everyone. If you fool your own teammates, then you get shot by them.

Hehe... I have no idea. I just started having random ideas flood my head. I think I've been working too long today and need to go home. :-P (I'm at work right now)

BTW, I was thinking more Juggernaut than the Hulk. :-)

That's classified.

A lot of these ideas seem to be inspired by Mario.

ok, the opposite...

A thinning powerup where your model becomes literally thinner and lighter than usual and your hit-box becomes smaller so you are more difficult to hit with weapons like the shotgun, railgun, machinegun, etc.

a pr0n powerup where you can shoot out these pods that inflate into sexy hot blowup dolls that both confuse and entertain your enemies.

Ok, I'll stop there :-P

Is it possible to merge Runematch and CTF modes?

Putting runes in CTF would be rather easy, but without balance adjustments, i see no reason why anyone would pick up a rune on purpose (except for speed), since the negative effects outweigh the positive effects.
