[MOD] Mg Mania

[arfink]

I have made up a little mod for Nexuiz which I like to call Mg Mania. Just so I don't get blamed for copying other people's ideas, the inspiration for this mod came from a MG instagib game that was hosted on a listen server by a Canadian user named TVR. I did'nt like everything so this is what I did:

No ammo or item pickups
Mega health enabled (health, not lives)
Vampire mode enabled (optional, i think its fun! )

The only weapon you get is the machine gun (maybe add lazer for jumping tricks later)
The MG has had its damage increased to 200 for both first shot and continuous shot. The first shot takes no ammo, but the continuous shot does. The rate of fire for the first shot has not been changed (seconday fire rate) but the continuous shot speed delay has been reduced to .05 or .07 (i like it lower, but it can get too laggy) I also increased the spread of the shots for primary fire significantly. This gun can gib normal players with 100 health and 0 armor instantly, or very nearly.

Each player, reather than starting invincible, receives 200 health and 100 armor, which quickly drains away to 50 health and 40 armor. Each user also receives 200-400 rounds of ammo (working on that one, I cant decide a balance quite right yet) and when it runs out you are stuck with the slow secondary fire instead of the awesome flesh ripping primary fire. Secondary fire, however, aims much better and does the same damage, it just doesn't shoot very fast.

I also increased the player speed to 500 instead of 400 so you can get out of people's way faster (keeps lead from getting in your butt as much)

This is good for laggy games and its quite fun! It requires alot of skill in order to keep your butt from being blasted to bits, so if you want to survive you have to always watch your back. The reason I made this with ammo is it helps to level the playing field a bit and emphasizes aiming and sneaking up on people close enough to make you shots count, instead of cheaply sniping people off. I didn't like most instagib because if your ping sucked it was too hard to aim at people and hit the mark and splash damage was too powerful (electro insatgib) .

Tell me what you think and enjoy !

I have to say, that sounds like alot of fun. It's definitely a good idea, and I'm sure that I'll love it, since the machine gun is one of my favorite guns in pretty much any fps game
