Friendly Fire

I'm really thinking about turning FF on....

Thoughts ???


:scratch:

I was playing on a FF on server a few weeks ago and I had a great time. Adds a whole new dimension to how you play, from spamming of nades to spraying of MGs. You had to be very careful.

Not sure how the DOD:S fans are slotted...FF or non FF and if a change would impact the current player base.

I do see a good number of people coming on and checking if FF is on, so they wouldn't be caught by surprise.

Having FF on brings up some new problems though... team kills, team punish and active admins.
I think we have enough active admins playing to help police a FF server.

The server I played on did not have any punishing for TKs. They relied on the players playing to complain about intentional stuff going on. You can tell when someone was killed by a dead nade vs team killed for no reason.

COD4 has a built in "Reflect Damage" which works fantastically well. HL2 has no such setting.

I'm looking around for some type of TK manage plugin and I'll ask other Admins what they do.

I like FF on but, most Pubs do not use it. The match Tuesday will require FF on.

I like it on, it adds a whole new mindset to the game. It takes away the "run and gun" aspect and turns it into more of a teamwork style of game-play, which in my opinion is far more fun then just running around the map and trying to kill as many people as possible.

Just my two cents... :D

Some CS:S servers with FF on had a mod that allowed you to do various things back to your opponent which was kinda fun.

- slap them down to 1 health
- insta slay them start of next round
- put a beacon on them
- freeze them
- burn them and make them really slow
- steal money from them
- forgive

I have always liked FF on. The next best is the reflect option thats on the COD games.

[Jeffro]

sweet jesus... i'm gonna have to start watching my nades lol.

[RuThLeSsKiLLa]

In my entire DoD career:D, i have always play on a friendly fire servers. im used to it. not much of a difference for me if u set it on.

[Cain]

We have FF and are using this Plugin to help control the jerks...

Should be fun !!

:D

[Cain]

Let me know any changes to the ATAC plugin you guys might like to see...

:2thumbs:

[DougBob]

I like it on myself. Helps weed out the mindless shooting and nadeing. Notice I said nade and not nad Cain :)

[juneau]

Not to jinx anything, but i hope this new FF addon isn't what crashed the server.

[Cain]

I'm certain it was, but it has a zilion settings I'll keep tweaking...

[Rand{CLR}]

I've got to say, it was really funny when the first thing I hear after joining up tonight is Jeffro yelling "NONONO Rand don't go in there!" right before his nade went off. :twisted:

-Rand

[Twiztednate]

LOL ya I saved his butt from a few TK's tonight... taking one myself for the team

[juneau]

Jeffro TK'd me last night and i forgave him. I TK him and he made me blind! It was so not fair! Especially as u have to die for it to be removed and i couldn't find the action even by following Jeffro's directions. Then my team started laughing at me. :cry::cry::cry::D

[BigTwinky]

I made Jeffro into a beacon, then I quit the game. haha

[Jeffro]

muahahhahahahhaa

i can dish it out... but i can take it also... :)

[Cain]

I'm thinking abut removing some of the punishments...

the beacon one is funny, and you can still keep playing...

[Jeffro]

hmmm well lets see. these are my personal opinions on what can be removed.
blind player can be removed due to the fact that you really can't see anything and can't get to where you wanna go.... i also think you can use drunk player instead of blind, due to the fact that you can still see and the whole screen isn't black.
uberslap can get ugly and is very buggy so that can go.
freeze can go also due to the fact that somebody can freeze you in spawn and you would have to kill yourself just to get out of it.
i think we should keep slay for maximum punishment.
i'm sure i'm forgetting some but thats my two cents :D

[Jeffro]

oh yeah and beacon is good too.

[Cain]

Thx Brows

[Jeffro]

no prob old man :D

[ch33s3r]

oh yeah and beacon is good too.

Don't let Jeffro tell you he doesn't like Uberslap! *Gives super angry stare to jeffro* LOL!!! That was hilarious :D

[Jeffro]

hehehhe

Wait a second..
When was freeze and blind added? When I was playing last night, there was only slap, uberslap, slay, beacon, and forgive.

:?

[Jeffro]

cain revamped it :D:2thumbs:

[Cain]

That uberslap was funny as the dickens, but it never stopped !!

[Cain]

FF is off tonight, until we can get a TK mgmt plugin that does not crash us !! (So, have fun Brows!!)...

:twisted:

[Jeffro]

WOOOOOT! ITS ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Furniture will once again feel my wrath! :twisted::twisted:

[BigTwinky]

Incoming MG spam! :D

[Cain]

Do you know how much I have to pay to CONSTANTLY replace all that furniture you keep damaging !?!?

:twisted:

[Jeffro]

there goes my security deposit :shock::shock:

[Cain]

:D

And I'm working with the IRS to garnish your wages for the rest !!

[Twiztednate]

I suggest Jeffro should work it off. You better take up carpentry and take a few classes in 1940's period.

Cain,
Ever considered Manimod? Not only does it have all the admin features, it does in game stats and tk punishment. It is the #1 used plug in for DOD.
If you don't know anything about it..hit me up and we'll chat.
It is also very very stable. I never in my experience had a hard time with it.

Also you don't need to turn on everything, you pick and choose what you want on.

May I suggest for damaging all the furniture "Jeffro" should have his name changed to..... " Brows "

I don't remember who called him that or where I read it.....but I have been smiling ever since. :wink:

It got broken when DOD went to the Orangebox, and he says he will not fix it until CS goes tot he OB.

It is also a resource hog................

[Twiztednate]

That sucks...
I never realized it was a resource hog.
