'persistent' weapon mod idea

Postby Rad Ished » Wed Apr 08, 2009 10:48 am

A small idea for a mod that i got the other day that had when a map was littered with the rocket launchers of the fragged.
The idea is that weapons don't respawn until either it falls off the map or the player holding it gets fragged and isn't using it.
Also weapons don't disappear when a player is fragged , they stay right there until somebody picks it up.
So, then there is only ever the same amount of weapons on the map as are put there by the mapper.
So... has it already been done?
It would be fun in ctf maps, like:
'heeeeey my turn on the nex!'
'noooooo, go and steal their one :p'
'has anybody seen the rocket launcher, i left it here, c'mon guys, who got it?'
oh, also a player can't pick up another weapon once he has one of them. i.e. can't pick up an rl if you are already holding an rl.
I suppose the conclusion would be one or two players running around with all the weapons, hmmm perhaps this is the fatal flaw.

Unless you made it so that you're only allowed to have one weapon (plus the shotgun and laser).
Could be fun, but could also be devastating with teamkills :P

HOF:
<Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
<Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
<Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along
<Samua>]Idea: Fix it? :D
<Samua>Lies, that only applies to other people.

Give the seagull more credit, it was him who taught _me_ how to steal.

Hey tzork
Heh, just had another thought, you could stash weapons :twisted:
Get one nex, stash it someplace hidden, then go get the other one.
I bet that what ai's seagull does with those nibbles, the poor abused brute :'(
