Super Demon! FINISHED!!

Anyone hit by a projectile is automatically kicked from the server. Alt-fire bans.

Nah. If projectile hits somebody, server crashes. Can be done multiple ways (like using Thing_Hate to make creature hate itself).

[Razgriz]

What about when you have less than 25% health you can use more powerful versions of your attacks when you're the boss? Or if anything you get an additional move that's pretty strong too.

[Catastrophe]

That sounds good. I think I'll go with speed & damage boost, then again it would seem fair to give them a desperation attack at low health... Tough call.

Oh yeah, gameplay video.

[Lord_of_D:]

[Catastrophe]

Ok guys, after procrastinating for a couple days, I've managed to get the stats working. Here's a screenshot!



Expect more stats and crap to be on that scoreboard

[Submerge]

This sounds like a great idea. I hope it sees the light of day.

[Catastrophe]

So guys, I've released a public alpha with only one level. I'm looking for people who can map for this project, if you're interested please PM me or post on this thread. Also, you can pick out the boss you want for your map. More information on the topic of this thread.

Oh and here's gameplay from the first level. (Sorry, bad rendering I know)

Have Fun!

[W1D3A55]

Seems a bit like the Master of Puppets mod, but still looks pretty good. I could do some mapping for this if you want.

[Catastrophe]

Yeah, that'd be nice :)

[IdeIdoom]

So I did test it and it was pretty good , except for the second map.
When this comes out , I will recommend this because it's fun when playing with friends.

News just in....



NOT DEAD!

cat and mouse mod

That was a great little experiment. An idea for this mod would be to use the same playing style for whoever's selected to be the monster; rather than sliding and strafing all over the place while firing like any other player does, instead force them to move as monsters do, and force them to stop every time they attack.

Of course maps would have to be designed in a way so that they're not balanced toward either side, but if C&M was anything to go by then it's that such map designs are very possible.

[Catastrophe]

Yeah, I did get this idea after playing cat & mouse, it was a good mod

[doomwolf555]

it really needs a lot of fix 90% of mod bugged.I can make cool bosses if you want like these:

After several more matches, disregard my earlier suggestion on making 'Boss Players' move like regular monsters. They really need player movement! Right, so the concept is fine. In fact, it's excellent. Playwise though... um. Well that's what testing is about. Currently, the bosses themselves are probably fine; the maps however are off. I know this is minor nitpicking, but that's what alphas are for!

- Maulotaur
Okay fucking fuck this, undetail shit and make the whole thing bigger. Currently everyone just gets raped by that fucking floortoast attack. Unless the Bossplayer is a total spaz, but you can't gear this toward retards.

- Bruiser Demon
Flat and detail-free. I won my (only) round as the boss here, but also won every round as a Marine. Needs height variation more than anything, obstacles that players have to jump but the Bruiser can climb/walk over easily?

- Archon Of Hell
Probably the most balanced, but the Archon 'lair' needs a second entrance. Currently everyone piles in and runs away after getting shots off, while the Archon rarely leaves. I got a Chainsaw kill because of this. A fucking CHAINSAW KILL.

[Ænima]

Do you scale the boss player's health based on the number of players?

[W1D3A55]

I remember submitting a map for this ages ago, and today I fount in the beta test that it wasn't there.

Wha happen catastrophe?

[Catastrophe]

Send it to me again.

@aenima yes, they all cap at 10,000 (anything beyond that is insanse)

[piratefinn]

I also should point out if not already known that there was a severe health bar glitch, which meant it would reduce hugely then not at all, so I had no idea how Close we were to killing the bosses. Happened most often with the Minotaur.
Lol, I remember that chainsaw kill, I was like "woooooah"

[Catastrophe]

Yeah I know about it.
