Adrenaline seems much more fit for the warfare gametypes (excluding AS) than for the standard ones.
Adrenaline would have been perfect for ONS. Invisible snipers, berserked node attackers, guys on speed to rush to nodes because they can't get a vehicle, etc. Another missed opportunity for suiteness, I suppose. :(

I never realy thought about it, but it would have been helpful for the foot soldier.

As for the camo combo. I thought it was bugy since day one. What it should have done is made you look like what ever you were near at the time of activation. (Ex. Stand near a brick wall and activate, and you also look like the brick wall.)

It's definitely mutator material. Dunno why they decided to make it part of the core gameplay in the first place...gj de :hmm:

I like Adredaline-especially the camoflauge combo but in botmatches...it's useless. They should make teh b0tz 5t()P||).

I like adren. It ADDS to the gameplay and the REALISAM! I don't think Liandri would want boring fights with tired guys, but on the other hand they wouldn't want people becoming invisiable!

No, remove it completely. It's a built-in unbalancing factor in the game. It sucks and it helps drag out skill gaps ever more. Dump it.

Ding-Ding! I stopped reading after this post, because its true. Why should the better players gain an additional advantage over the opposition?

and just having scrolled down to see the last 2 posts of the thread, adrenaline adds to realism? :con: Maybe there have been huge changes to the adren system since I last used it, but I would hardly say its realistic. Hence it would probably be used in more realism games, rather than a game that has "unreal" in its title. :)

There should be an award for picking up X amount of pills, like "Adrenaline Horde, Pill Popper, or Junky."
LOL :lol:

Adrenaline should be a sub-extra mutator. And whenever you enable it on your server, it gets listed in the a seperate "adrenaline-enabled-server" window. Something like that.
I never liked those stupid pills.

Adredaline domination?
also, getting to 50 pills is very hard to reach if you have big maps...

Hmmm, if anybody know a mutator, where the player can find speed, booster, beserk or invisibility pickups?
There is a Relics mutator, but as soon as you install it the d@mn Anticheat muts servers run won't let you play online. It's reasons like that that I hate the UT2kx Anticheat programs.

Hacks can only be detected if you have a C:\Windows\System32 folder. Deleting that will make you hack-detection proof.

Or you can also overdose on cocaine. That stops annoying anticheat mutators in their tracks.

Not recommended unless you're an expert.

One thing I had kinda forgot about, or not considered, is the idea of having so many powerups, that it would be next to impossible to "control" all of them. That I honestly think would be a good idea for DM/TDM.
Well let's be glad you stick to tam then.

Competative tdm is all about map control and powerup control and you can't argue that. And considering that you're not a competative tdm player, please stay away from our gametype. :D

BTW ADren in the 2kx series sucks, the UC2 adren system was much better, but I'd rather have it removed from the games to come.

I don't work for Epic.

...and if my influence is that strong, then it's one more feature of comp.

:tdown:

Or, you've always got quake... Id seems to actually care about the "competitive community."

I just like to BS about it for fun though, I'm pretty much done with TDM unless it changes drastically in the near future, or I get stuck with nothing else to play.

Done, and done.
