Design Your Own Nexuiz!

g_balance_health_regen 0 //No health regen, forces you to pick up health to stay alive.

BIG no-no there.

sv_pogostick 0 // This makes the players actually have to JUMP to move around faster.

Ugh. I can still jump as good without pogostick, but it provides much physical comfort (no thumb hurting), and saves space bars too... Also I'd expect some people (including myself, I confess) to make some clientside autojump if pogo is disabled. I wouldn't use it, though :p

I disagree partly.. We were thinking about minimal regen, but it's actually very fun without it. Although I don't think that the pogo should be disabled. Well I mean, when I played a match with PCL, I think _not_ having pogo actually made me more involved in the game, and it felt a bit funner imo. Once we fix the sv_pogostick 0 vibration problem, I think not using pogo would be fine.


Edit: What about making pogostick a client side option?

Noooooooo!

Please tell me you're not talking about default?!

Why? Pogo only works if you hold space down, it is not something that you have to use or that goes off by itself, you have to make it happen with a key hold.


Removing features like health regen and pogo just makes Nexuiz more primitive. The former could and maybe should be a Mutator, but neither of these should seriously be considered for default Nexuiz. That kind of feature removal would be clear and big steps backwards.

All modern games have been moving far away from health pack pickups and bunnyhopping, and there are alot of good reasons for these trends in particular. Let's not send ourselves back to the dark ages.

No we're not talking about default at all And pogo is staying.

I use laserjumps a lot, so the health regen is always welcome. I could not play without it.

Agreed

[PCLizard]

Well, I may leave health regen on with my config. I still have yet to play a real match without it...Samual and I were thinking about making the rot a little slower if we turned health regen off.

Code: Select all

exec physicsNexrun.cfg


I would like to see a nexrun-like physics too on some fighting server too, but it's extremely annoying and tiresome for the hand to make semi circles throughout the match, not to mention its almost impossible to aim like that on-the-go. Have you checked out the quake live physics yet? its almost the same but as you are speeding up the ideal curving-circle of movement gets much longer than in the current nexrun setting, thats something much more playable in fights. At least i found double and triple-beat strafing far much easier to apply. I guess its because of the less aircontrol or sth.

Try the "new" nexrun physics, they are now very much like CPM (except slightly faster )
Somehow miraculously they are still also compatible with all existing maps
They are enabled on the [NL] Nexrun server.

You mean you planned to keep the rot on while turning the regen off?

That's even worse! :p

So Samual, did you try my melee laser and balanced shotgun? Did they make the cut?
