Hey everyone, thought I'd post a new topic here since the Skulltag forum seems to be out of service. Working on a new update to Shotgun Frenzy including new maps, weapons and gametypes.

Shotgun Frenzy is a Skulltag modification which combines RTS and FPS. A single player commands their team through a top-down view, building structures and deploying orders, while the rest of the players enter the battlefield and hold off thousands of incoming monsters.

How to play
[quote=wadaholic.wordpress.com]In most game types in Shotgun Frenzy, the objective is to defend your core at all costs. In-between the demon spawn point and your core are 3 batteries that determine if you are in control of its corresponding sector. If the demons capture all 3 of these sectors by destroying your batteries, they then have a clear shot at your core. If they destroy this, you loose the game and the next map is loaded.

There are several ways you can win a match. The most common way would be to hold off the demon invasion and destroy them all. This usually runs for 10-15 minutes per map. If you have a strong counter-attack, you can overrun the demons and destroy their core (as they are trying to do to yours). This takes a lot of teamwork. Alternatively (depending on the map) you can buy a Nuclear Silo and nuke them. If you activate this, the monsters will instantly spawn to your bases location, so make sure you have a good defensive set up.

CF maps (Combat Frenzy):
There are 4 maps included for the Combat Frenzy game type. War Machine, District, Checkpoint and Return to Hell Island. In this game type there is no commander, you are provided a small base with basic shops, restock pads and sector teleporters. Defend the 3 sectors from the demon invasion.

SD maps (Survival Defender):
There are 2 maps included for this game type. Hell Asteroid and The Valley.
This is quite a different game type. Again you are provided a small base with what you need, but there are no sectors, just your core and monsters spawning all around it. The monsters spawn in waves, so you have a short time between these to restock and prepare for the next. Usually lasts 10-15 waves per map.

SF maps (Shotgun Frenzy):
There are 4 maps included for this game type. Refinery, Wasteland, Grid and Hell Siege. Plays exactly like the Combat Frenzy mode, but a single player takes the role as Commander. The maps are much larger as well and have support for vehicle combat.[/quote]

Can't wait to play this! ^-^ When it comes out on 2015...

[Reaku]

I absolutely loved this mod! I'm happy to see it back in action to be played more.

[Avi]

This just made my day. I'm so looking forward to this. [permalurking this topic]

[VortexCortex]

This was one of the most popular mod among the Unix neckbeards at my old job.

Once when brainstorming some genre crossovers "FPS + RTS" came up; I mentioned Shotgun Frenzy, and we ended up spending hours playing it instead of working on our own game things...

Really. Great. Stuff.

[Springy]

Yes didn't think this was still being worked on. Can't wait for the update. Forgot to mention some levels when the monsters are gone you are still in the same level and the statistics screen doesn't pop up.

Hey all, we've opened up an official forum which can be found here, http://sfrenzy.forumice.net/

Hey all, version 2 on its way! The mods not dead.... anymore :)
I'm surprised this thing still gets some play time every now and then! Thought now would be a good time to get some better content in there.

The main priority of this update is to get the unofficial tweaks and updates in there, and t3hplayer & co have been doing an amazing job maintaining this stuff!

On top of that there is the usual add more guns, maps and monsters, but I was thinking of chucking in a few new gamemodes, but since you guys are playing this stuff, now would be a good time to see if there were any feature requests. It would be nice to get this update into the communities hands faster than previous versions.

[RaveYard]

Hey all, version 2 on its way! The mods not dead.... anymore :)

yes!

...feature requests...

Code: Select all

Balancing / changing weapons? (Mech & Quadshot Explosive & (perhaps) Razorblades are so powerfull IMO )
More maps?
More customized maps? (Like different amount of sectors?)
More upgrades?
New pack for armory? (Engineering pack to repair turrets??) 
Player to player money donation? (only for money that you earned by fighting, not the one you get at the start)
CVAR saved statistics? (Wins, looses, maps played, total kills!) (Just for fun!)

Can't wait for 2.0

[Lollipop]

fix this op shit in the later parts of the game:
join, buy turrets, deploy, spectate, join, buy turrets...

Last time i played sf this was what I did on a map that was so close to being lost
