Jailbreak 2004c: Bug fixes we've got already, so what about features?

[CoolDude]

• Jail Fights Add-On -- there's even an unfinished version lying around somewhere, I think, so either someone could finish it, or it could be created from scratch. The idea is that jail-fighting players get awards for several kills in a row -- stuff that's fun like weapons, for example.

I've got an idea for some impossible overtime matches. Can't you make something that spawns everybody back in the game, (jails are empty then), and then the announcement "this is your last life prisoner, make it count" when you then die you go back in the jail BUT the button will be jammed so nobody can release anymore, that way you'll have a team last man standing that will result into faster ending the game.

Sounds like fun in my head, but then again, in my head i'm unbeatable

 

[ZedMaestro]

Thats actually quite a good idea

 

[TheSpoonDog]

Definately - Last man standing overtime Still, puts those high-pingers at a disadvantage because they have to actually kill someone instead of winning by releasing *cough*

I like the idea though.

 

[mrloper]

GREAT IDEA, certainly after last night

 

[The_Head]

Properly sweet idea. nice

You know, I'm sure we came up with that idea for overtime (can't find it, might be on the old forum).
Did we never implement it?
At any rate, it's still a good idea -- reduces excessive overtime. :tup:

 

[The_Head]

How hard would it be to make that a part of the mod for a future patch?

 

[Mychaeel]

Not much, though I'd prefer it to remain optional.

Actually, a pretty simple add-on could fill that gap.

 

[tarquin]

We could call it "Sudden Death", or "Last Chance" maybe...

 

[The_Head]

I meant as an addon btw. Some ppl may not like it, (56kers like Spoondog pointed out)

 

[Symbolikal]

Spoondog is on a 56k? How the f*ck does he upload maps and other stuff to BU from NZ? Must take ages.
Being on-topic, that would be brill for an addon. I'd use it.

 

[TheSpoonDog]

Hey, I'm 512k in Australia now thank you very much!

... but I still ping at least 300 to the mothership, I think.

 

[Symbolikal]

Me sorry spoony!

I thnink the shieldgun fight ability with bots in jail is pretty anoying. it is much more fun against human oponents only, it is even more anoying with alt escape's wich requires the shield gun.

Hmm, a difficult one. I somethimes think it's anyoying, but also sometimes think it's quite fun.
Maybe an idea ... how about you have to "wake up" the bot first?
What I mean is: if you hit a bot with a shieldgun for the first time, it won't harm him, but he will get out his shieldgun to get ready for a jailfight.

hmm, sounds good. at least they will not attempt 2 disturbe an escape attempt

I just get annoyed with people wanting to fight me in jail...by ramming me or shooting grenades at me >:|
