I had the MOST fun in UT3 when...

[Skaxis]

I was playing on a server which had the XMPJumpJets or MoveXMP mutator running on it .

I would like to find a server which is running both the XMP style movement (either one) & the SENTINAL mutator for the automated weaponry.

Is it possible to make a mutator that has Land Mines as a deployable weapon? Both the (0r either of the...) Laster Trip Mine variety & under-foot style planted on the ground every day mine?

Or a mutator that allows you to "REVIVE" a downed team-mate by USE-keying them? There was a mod in UT2K4 that had a Freeze-Tag gameplay mode.. that to me.. is not unlike a "you are dead.. now wait to be thawed(revived) by team-mate" effect.

You know where I am going with this. Why not have the best of all the "worlds" of both standard UT play and XMP play elements?

Get a srever running this "Plethora" XD hahahaha.. uh... of mutators and BAM!! You cookin with "Daaaaaaang!"

I reckon a land mine mutator would be piss easy - just modify the EMP mine to hit infantry instead of vehicles.

There's a couple of freeze tag / freon game types in UT3 already.

Skaxis, it sounds like a good idea, although if you've played on a server that had these features, did you try finding out who the server admin was and contact him/her via IRC chat? It would save you (and us) a lot of time of searchin'.

That'd be actually pretty awesome to have.

The MoveXMP mutator is great fun, particularly in Warfare. There is a thread in the XMP forum about it.

Hm... Speaking of the use-key-to-revive-teammates mutator... That'd be useful in implementing a single-player campaign mod for UT3.... (a real single-player campaign, like CoD4 but not so sophisticated).

Having those jumpjets like XMP would boost the efficiency of the stinger.

And rocket spam.

 

[Kantham]

Rocket? No. Flak? Maybe, yes.

I had something similar planned for Chimpire in "Pro mode"

Basically when you die you need to be revived by a teamate putting his reticle over you and either pressing the use key or waiting like -- a second. Doesn't matter how far away -- so long as you have direct LoS.

The catch of course being if an enemy finds your corpse first -- they can move it -- you'd still be able to revive it (well, "call for backup")... if you find where they put it.

Doh!
