FNF SPECIAL #124: INSTAGIB IDL2012 CTF

[Qent]

FNF July Special

And with a plurality of five votes is IDL2012 CTF instagib! Your votes tied for the Quake backpack drop, but the poll is moot because it's instagib. We'll work out a better poll system for next month!

Maps removed were too small (map31, 32) or too linear and near impossible to capture a flag (map16)



The railgun should be converted to a ZD like one (where its just one shot, then reload), because firing off four shots really fast makes it near impossible to capture, especially as the numbers increase.
If you want, I can whip up a quick patch for the railgun to shoot once, do a (slightly faster) reload and repeat.
When we tried that on NJ anthology CTF it made some maps just outright impossible, ESPECIALLY the bigger/longer ones.



Since you're including the map15 patch, you might as well use map15.

Thanks!

Well... we could toss in the ProCTF or Q2 railgun, but I think that would be kind of a dick move because the thing people actually voted for explicitly said to use the regular one. :/

Consider removing map11 because it is probably the longest map and near impossible to escape with tons of people spawning. Even without instagib it's still terrible trying to capture. Can't imagine it on ST's railgun

I have a proposal to make in terms of railguns. I've made a specific railgun for my DM project, maybe this is something you may use ? (Not the sprites(but slightly edited), forgot to mention)

Last time we had used ijontichy's Quake railgun, and it didn't do too well (it has the same one shot behavior you mentioned).

Didn't do too well as in not being fun enough? or everyone just got fragged anyways?
