Have we heard enough praise of this mutator to distinguish it our Favorite Mutator?

Yeah...filters out all other players so it's PuF only! Yep, what we need is a PuF-only, Strangelove-arena, Carry The Flag server.

It's alright Das. This happened to me once and is only one of several interesting "DSL Downers." Thank you for using your server to provide us with fun and tons of laughs.

And the Strangelove mutator is definitely the most fun I've had in UT for a long time; I can use three words to describe it: "Purety of essence"..... :)

While Strangelove is really fun...I dunno. I think it gets ultimately pointless, especially if you have fewer than 6 people playing it (in a ctf-type game).

I think it'd be really cool if they came out with special 'race' maps. Maybe the first would be a 'pod racer' type map? and support for counting laps, etc? =)

And I would like to mention that I honestly do think I saw outside my airplane window a guy hanging from a redeemer rocket flying out int he opposite direction.......

We tend to laugh at hillbillies, and I guess that's okay. But let me tell you something about hillbillies: they're fun to laugh at. Oh, I guess I said that.

i think they should strap dual chainguns onto the front of the rocket and primary shoots while secondary jumps off.... course i would like everything to have dual chainguns :)

WOOOOWOOOOO!

My DSL is back up and running. It was a supplier-side issue, apparently.

Look for a Strangelove server Sunday. :)
I don't have the IP yet, but I'll name it "STRANGELOVE RIDE THE REDEEMER SERVER" or something similar.


Jing: I respectfully disagree. Strangelove is certainly less precise than regular CTF, but I've played competitive games with this when numbers were kept low. IMHO, It's when numbers get high that it becomes pointless...because every time you go to make a flag cap, there's an opponent around that shoots a redeemer into your base and prevents the score. The game becomes constant explosions. I had great games playing 1v1 and 2v2, because you had to hunt down your flag, while not losing the oppossing flag which you possess. You have to care alot more about whether you get blown up in the explosions. I think when player numbers are higher, flag caps are much harder, because there are a bunch of players running around with missiles that really don't care who gets blown up, even themselves, just as long as they delay a score.

Kamikaze redeemer riding, anyone? :)

Just my 2c for this well-done mutator.

BTW, I had green-screen problems, but they usually went away on their own.

Happy Fragging. :)

I think I agree with Blow_Smoke. It's fun for a while, but then you get bored. It's not something I'll keep playing, but it might be worth a game every now and then.

Nothing beats CTF though. :)
