To all you instagib fans... I was thinking of implementing the instagib mod into a gametype for AOTC:TC. What I need from you, is specific details about what the game is all about. I am unfamilliar with all of the nitty-gritty attributes of it. As you can probably figure out, its not one of my favorites...However, others still love it. So if you will, please explain the details and other specific information for me so I can get to work on the gametype.

Just be aware that anything 'new' you add on won't be embraced straight away so possibly allow an option for it to be turned off (with a console command or whatever you coders do  )_______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

Quote: *sidenote* dunno if Jacen agrees with me on this but I had a few ideas over the years. Sort of powerup pickups, but new ones stuff like 'super speed' or 'increased fire rate' or 'takes 2 hits to kill' stuff like that, just thought it might add a new twist Hmmm...I like! I was also thinking if I can find a modeler to creata some new flags. Since I have the power of a whole new gametype, I can just about do anything for the hardcore Instagib gamers. _______________ Get busy living, or get busy dying. |

Instagib is CTF only (normally) There are variations out there of FFA and TFFA but they don't seem to be as good, as one hit kill in ffa gets a little annoying  CTF is not about kills so much as caps so its less of a factor.Having it as CTY would be pointless since there are no force pwoers anyway you'd just have no jump, which wouldn't make alot of difference to good people anyway.*sidenote* dunno if Jacen agrees with me on this but I had a few ideas over the years.

1) Is it played primarily as a team game, CTF, or CTY? 2) Are powerups allowed? 3) Please be specific with every aspect of the gametype...thanks! _______________ Get busy living, or get busy dying. |

I strongly disagree with Steinin's "no zoom". Very strongly. And so will most instagibbers. Trust me on this, I play it every day, I'm in the 2nd best clan in the world. And trust me, zoom makes it fun. And no, there are no other weapons at all in instagib - only disruptor. No force powers either. And when I say speed 400, I mean it's nearly twice as fast as regular game play. |

Here's another instagib mode you can add. No other weapons than sniper rifle. Increased player speed. No zoom at all. Decreased rate of fire on primary fire. _______________ 362 Ohi on! |

well i got a weird problem with a little insta-like mod i'm making. I edited the ClientSpawn() function, the WeaponToss() (or however it's called) function, the item spawn and the function that reduces the ammo. Oh and the function for the disruptor damage. But when i respawn i STILL begin with the blaster and the saber. It's really weird... _______________ Your friends of today, are your enemies of tomorrow. |

Here is what I have done thus far... For the instagib gametype: 1) I have added the unlimited ammo 2) Increased the speed for each shot. 3) I also upped the power of the shot to make it a one hit kill. 4) Users can jump and run while remaining in zoom. The zooming does disturb me a bit...I may make that a bit quicker for the user to use. (zooming in and out) Now when you claim a speed of 400, does that mean slower or faster? Also, is the saber disabled? Is melee disabled as well? Let me know what you want. _______________ Get busy living, or get busy dying. This comment was edited by cHoSeN oNe on Apr 06 2004 05:56pm. |

Its fun to zoom and in normal FFA even an uncharged scoped shot does more damage than a normal shot (at least in JKII.....) _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

Jacen (and myself) don't like the scope in JK:JA as you have to actually unzoom. It allows you to move left and right whilst scoped but not shoot, which is most annoying when you wanna zoom, shoot and then run. JKII all you had to do was move in a direction and it unzoomed for you, sorted _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

EEEK! Steinin, you're way off, lol. I LOVE sniping, I do it all the time. As a matter of fact, I'm disappointed in myself whenever I *don't* snipe kill, but only kill via primary fire. Just saying, let the delay between snipe and unzooming be like in JK2. Please. And Jake is right, I played it with a clanmate of mine, we killed each other like 10 times..

The hitboxes in JK3 are not as wide as JKII. Some may argue that this makes hitting people ahrder and thus requires more skill.... In JKII its hard enough having people flying at the speed of light being able to hit them, if you add to that smaller hit boxes....no one will ever die _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

No Scope, Anomaly. That's what Jacen doesn't like in JK3. Don't allow the scope to be used. _______________ 362 Ohi on! |

Yeah, tried it few times, but Insta in JK:JA just isn't as fun as it was/is in JKII. Anyways, Aratan already said what Insta contains so.... |
