more useage for the special weapons

[bradwin]

i think since we have vote_arena, that its great and all but sometimes its not that exciteing to play with. I think we should have a "vote_sweapon", what it would do is that it would do the same thing as vote_arena, but instead of useing normal weapons, you use special weapons. now if it were to cost credits that wouldnt make sence becuse everone would run out of them after like 3 rounds. and 1 more thing to add to it, is that not everyone has the same weapon, mix it up a little like 2 people have a rpc 1 person has a flare gun 2 people have a heat seaker, ect... have 2 credits worth of ammo. the ability i thonk sohould be called "vote_sweapon" or something like that (the s stands for special). lasts till the end of the map just like vote_arena. unles if someone does another vote to turn it off.

Fluff already has this in place on the test server, by saying vote_special. They will also occasionally set this special up during certain maps on holidays when admins are there. However, it would defeat the specialness of special weapons if it were played every map... so thats why its not a normal weapon vote.

Special weapon are a reward for loyal players of the server. That is why they are credit/time based. An arena vote that allows everyone access to the weapons defeats the concept of credits and the reward system.

[Demolition Man (Imaninja)]

But its also a reward for showing up during the holidays

[CDS-101]

Reward?, i think punishment would be a more fitting word

[Demolition Man (Imaninja)]

At least thats the case when I'm playing

[Maks]

Yeah cuz everybody can easily kill you, the punishment is all yours

[Demolition Man (Imaninja)]

yea, seems like that IS the case.... every time I get heatseekers, like half the other team gets flares and it becomes useless... really bites the big one...

yeah if there were to be a special weapon arena, it'd have to be 100 times more limited than regular arena. i wouldnt mind once in a while cause it was pretty fun on the test server.

i think there should be a vote_special but it doesnt last the whole game, how about 10 minutes of it, but you can only do like every 15 maps or so.
