Isnt the shield considered a powerup?

some random powerups ideas

phase shifting - each bullet have 1/3 chance to go through you
healbot - you heal all nearby teammates
guardian - you shield all nearby teammates reducing dmg taken by 10%
speed - 20% more speed for you and your teammates
stealth - make all nearby teammates 90% invisible, you are not affected
hellfire - each explosion have 30% chance to set enemy on fire, damaging it over time
freezer - each bullet have 30% chance to freeze enemy reducing it speed by 30%
diseases - you spread disease to all nearby enemys that slowly damage them over time
living battery - you have 20% chance to shock enemys near you by electricity (pushing them back like laser or stronger ) and you rise dmg of all energy weapons by 30% near you
judgment - every1 that you aim, have weight incresed 2x make him unable to jump

i think that in ctf there should be more powerups that promote teamplay over 1 uber strong guy

Those powerup ideas are AWESOME!
I love the emphasis on team benefits. It could make the team more focused on team organization like group attacks and such.

Great ideas

What about these, classic CTF powerups?

Yes, it is, but it seems as mappers don't like it.

The shield would be an ideal power-up in CTF, it should be used.

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

but i'd rather not change into the incredible hulk

Eh, just trying to come up with original ideas. I'm more interested in seeing all new ideas thrown in than rehashing stuff that other games have done already.

[k0jak]

There's original, and there's bonkers.

[divVerent]

bonker, as in "Ich hock in meinem Bonker mitten in Berlin"?

[k0jak]

ok

i shall stop my sarcasticness for one post

Original yes....but you have to think in line with the current gameplay...and be realistic with powerups

Morphed posted some good idea's but they give the whole team an advantage and i think that's too much of an advantage over another team even though the percentages of what the powerup's do is quite low.
