add a real 1on1 map

rannibunny · 11-12-2007, 02:26 PM

do multiple arenas, I have no problem with that, I just want the following:

1) a 1on1, not a PUBonPUB like on ff_dm
2) Both go ready (somehow) and when both players are ready, the battle starts with full ammo and reloaded weapons (ALL weapons, even the normal shotgun) for both players and probably even the same speed (fire them out of their respawn) for both players
3) Someone kills the enemy and manages to survive for another ~1/2 second: he earned a point, both players get reset in their respawns and need to ready up, again.

not to call down your idea or anything but this is a TEAM Fortress mod. I think most efforts should be geared towards making it a TEAM game and not some silly 1v1 ego battles.

I don't mind 1v1 on mulch just for random fun but for the team to actually implement a full-on duel type of gameplay...I just think there are better things they can do.

and this belongs in the mapping forum; its more likely for a community mapper to make anything like this at the moment.

ff_dm is 1 on 1.

This could be done I think... multiple arenas...

Basically you could have a spawn that goes to different arenas. When you enter the arena, you go into a "ready box" that is in the actual playing field. When you push a button, a light flashes above you that the other guy can see. If he presses his button in 5 seconds, the spawn doors lock and the boxes disappear.

This would keep people from interfering in your 1v1 and have a fair, simultaneous start. If the other guy gives up on pressing the button, you can just walk back into the spawn and look for battles elsewhere.

I've had some pretty good dm sessions with ff_dm. Whenever some llama joins and starts screwing it up, we all switch to the opposite team he's on and pick on him until he leaves, or smartens up lol.

I don't like not being able to enter the same arena as the mulch in question. I do like watching, and not from an observer's box. When the bout is finished I'll take my spot on the square for the next round.

I just think we need a dm map with more than 1 arena, 4 would be nice. Most people are willing to learn the rules to it, but are impatient when there's a line up of 6 people on each side.

ff_dm as it stands only really works if there's no more than 5 people playing. Anything more and it turns into just a spam fest.

Cheers,
Hammock

If someone builds a nice multi-arena map I can help script it. We have very little in the form of mappers right now.
