Gungame - MultiMode Trial Feedback

[[DtK] [C] Squall]

This thread is to be used for feedback regarding the current Gungame MultiMode setup running on the server.

Players are now able to select a Gungame Mode in addition to the map towards the end of the game.

The following Gungame Modes are available:

1. Gungame Normal - the normal mode that has always run on this server

2. Gungame Turbo Mode - Only 1 kill is required instead of the usual 2 to levelup

3. Gungame Reverse Weapons Order Mode - Instead of starting from the para and progressing to pistols, you instead start with pistols and progress to the para

4. Gungame Random Weapons OrderMode - Weapon order is randomized instead of following a preset

5. Team Gungame - players level up as a team instead of individually. Each level requires 5 kills instead of the usual 2. e.g If 5 ct's get a kill each - the whole CT team levels up.


Cheers

Hi,

This new setup has potential, the different modes are great fun, just need to sort out the bugs.

It seem no matter what maps are voted for sometimes the same map loads, with the same game mode, despite a different game mode displaying at the top of the screen. (eg: reverse order when its displaying normal mode)

Cheers.

the map votes are supposed to pop up at deagle level however on certain modes like Turbo, by the time the second vote for the actual map goes up, the leader has already won resulting in the map being replayed.

The settings are being changed so the map votes pop up earlier to address this issue.

Really enjoyed this, especially turbo mode. The idea of having a vote to change the mode is also great. Support the idea overall. As Greg said there are a few bugs like the map replaying as well as a longer than usual loading time every time it changes maps. Didn't get a chance to play the fifth mode.. will have to wait and see.

Gotta say, Team mode with a full server is bloody good fun!

You can go from knife to losing 3 or 4 levels in a second or 2

Fantastic, Cheers.

Your not kidding, that round last night was crazy, one player on T's had over 100 kills.

Awesome game mode.

Something strange happened. Playing gg_corner_ex at first I was leveling up as if I was playing turbo mode then I was sent back to galil after a team kill and I got stuck on it for the next three or four kills. The top of the screen said that I was playing on normal mode.

[[DtK] [V] SpAc3y]

Also, what about turbo of all modes?

Loving the team matches, I have played in two now that have gone for over an hour each.

It has been a week since this was implemented and as mentioned it was a trial. A poll has been added to this thread, players now have the opportunity to decide if they want to continue with the MultiMode set up or go back to how things were. The poll will autoclose in 7 days


The only negative side effect I have seen with the MultiMode set up is that map load times can increase when there are a lot of players on the server due to how the Gungame mod loads/unloads on map changes. We are looking to address this without taking away any of the current features away so it might take some time.

The multimode addition has been good. Reactions from players for the team mode have been positive.

I haven't seen the reverse order or random guns modes been used all that much. If it helps to reduce congestion in any way maybe these could be removed?

If the new modes cause problems for people connecting (I know Dirty is having troubles) then we could revert back to the normal gun game with some more features?

The Multi mode has been a great ....players are enjoying the different modes and having fun this a big +1 Squal

[[DtK] [SA] greg256]

Having the option to change the game mode every round is great, has given new life to the server.

Team game mode need some adjustment but is going great and is a favorite, i'm also a fan of Random Weapons Order, not that its voted for very often.

These game modes are defiantly a big step in the right direction. Great Work.

Mate, this new inclusion of being able to choose your next game mode is fantastic. It is especially useful when there are a limited number of players on the server where most players will go Turbo as there aren't as many people to kill and level up on.

This must be kept as a permanent feature.

well after it has been on for a bit of time i think its good to have as it dose mix thing's up a bit in the server .


The bugs are ok at this time to deal with and the main thing that needs to be done at this time would be making the vote menu stay up for like 5 more sec

as most player's miss it



other then that i think its a good add on to the server



and add a menu for the admin's to change the mode and map's with out killing the server as when the mode changes the same map play's again

witch is a pain in the ass

[[DtK] [SA] greg256]

Would it be possible to add a turbo team mode for when there is only a handful of players, like we had in the France vs Croatia Surprise Event, 1 kill per team level up.


Good to see some of the bugs have been fixed, maps have been loading so much quicker over the last week. Great Work.

Actually would be a great mode...very fast rounds!
