OBJECTIVE MAP RESPAWNING MOD IS NOW OUT!

02-02-2002, 12:10 AM

You know how in the Omaha Beach objective map you can respawn when you die instead of PAINFULLY waiting for each round to end?

Well I've just released this brand new mod that lets you play the other 3 objective maps THE EXACT SAME WAY!

That's right!

Now you don't have to wait FOREVER while that one guy is sitting and camping on The Hunt!

Now the Allies have to make sure the bomb never goes off on The Bridge map for FIVE ENTIRE MINUTES instead of just quickly sniping out the invading Axis!

This map should be available on AlliedAssault.net very soon, and I'll put up a page for it here which should be up in a minute or two.

NOTE: ONLY SERVERS NEED TO HAVE THIS MOD RUNNING! CLIENTS (people who join the servers) DO NOT need to run this mod! All you gotta do is find a server that is running it.

Enjoy!

I think by dying and thus waiting til the next round to start is good. It makes you think before you shoot.

By not respawning makes you play more carefully and work as a team. If you respawn there is no reason for playing carefully cause you know when you die you start rushing out again just to make a quick kill. Respawning is lame.

Actually, in my experiences, the fact that you can't respawn makes players just try to kill the other players and ignore the objectives.

Now that you can't win rounds simply by killing other players, it forces players to concentrate more on accomplishing the objectives (or defending them) which means MORE TEAM WORK.

Previously, the rounds end when either all the players on one team are dead, or the objective is accomplished, or time runs out.

Now, the rounds will only end if the objective is accomplished, or if the defending team manages to defend the objective for five minutes.

The mod makes it so that these maps are no longer about killing everyone on the other team. Anyone can do that alone and most of the time players aren't organized in groups.

Now that it's all about objectives, team work is FORCED in order to be succesful.

Any questions?

Very true JESTA - although I can see it from all points of view really.

How are the spawns handled on the maps? Do you spawn back in the same spot or is it random?

sounds great, i hate friggin waiting like 10 minutes so that someone on my team can find that camping bastard whos causing all the problems

Yes...random respawns it's not from the same spot.

Couldn't agree more.

No offense, but YUK! I like the realism of DYING.... It's not just a random slugfest.

I'm not forcing anyone to download this mod.

The offer is on the table.

I personally have heard tons of people crying for a way to play these other 3 objective maps (especially The Bridge) with respawning instead of spectating after death, so I simply released a mod that made it so.

You want to run the mod? Great.

If not, just ignore this thread. Can it get any easier than that?

Uh, don't play the mod?

That's an idea!

jas142 · 02-02-2002, 10:51 AM

Jesta, I didn't mean to sound mean or critical. I think thats awesome that you DID make a mod, even if i dont like

I just meant I dont wanna connect to servers and end up playing the hunt with Resawns. Those maps are meant for strategy, for a slow and pitched strategic battle through a city.
