| Quad after 3-5 kills in a row?; Would be a great way to spice things up! | |

Hello, Anyone here remember NBA Jam? I loved it when after you made three consecutive shots or dunks in a short time period you were on fire and could do more spectacular dunks and such. I am wondering how hard it would be to bring the same environment to Quake. So if you made three frags (or more if there are a lot of people online) within 5 seconds you automatically get quad. That would be cool, IMHO! Regards, YetAnotherNoob |

Actually every now and then Fub@r would change the settings to where everytime you frag 1 person, you would get the quad, flight, regeneration reward. lol well it is pretty fun espesially when the frag limit is 200 Also this is on Anarchy cause I dont know if your on Insta or Chaos hehehe |

Can we add that to the other maps? That would be cool! Also, isn't 1 kill a little too easy to get it? Everyone would get it then. Regards, YetAnotherNoob |

Right now if you make 10 kills in a row without getting killed, you get quad and wings for a short period as a reward |

nawww dude lol when the limit is 1 kill than its funner because anybody can get it. You wouldnt have to be great at the game just to get the reward. You should try it out, its really fun, but also exhausting at the same time lool

Just in case you didnt see what I said earlier, an admin has to be on for this one kill reward setting could take effect. |

Unless something has changed in the last week or so, or I suck even more than I thought, the quad/fly reward is not activated in CHAOS, just ANARCHY. |

Yes - Admins need to make these 'changes' and there are all kinds that we can do - the problems come in though when we DO do it. It's great for the players already on the server because they know what is going on but those joining after a change has been made some times get upset or complain about how things now SUCK. Every admin has experienced this - Fub@r as of late. We can decide how many kills in a row someone needs before getting a reward like Quad, Flight, Battle Suit, Health Regen. We can decide how long each will last, we can decide if the person with that stuff drops it or it disappears when they are killed. We can decide to give any one or more of those things at the very beginning of the map for everyone to enjoy. Whether they drop or disappear. Add and remove weapons; add and remove ammo; increase the firing rate to insanity or greater.... and more. But yes there is (not sure at the moment if it's still in effect) a 'reward' limit that is 'on-the-fly' changable by the admins to reward a player with one or more powerups after X number of kills in a row (without dying). We do this at discretion a lot of times as it was used as a camping tool of sorts in the past. People learned of the Quad+Flight reward and would camp at a spawn spot to get their 10 frags or so then get quad flight and clear a map out. So we changed things up - now we can make the person with the 'reward' power-ups more vulnerable (meaning if you have a reward power-up you receive more damage for a weapon then you dish out). |
