Ideas to improve H&S

[Xyvana]

Idk how hard it is in terms of actual implementation but for the web bomb, you could make it so when someone is hit, if he touches other hiders they get tangled as well (for the duration of the effect), this will make everyone run away from "infected people" this could easily be too op though, should be careful with timings.

Another thing could be a "double agent" role for one of the hiders, where his goal is to "mark people" and if they get killed while marked (which can be a short wh for seekers) he gets a point or smthn (perhaps something at the end for leaderboards to not mess with cage too much) might be hard to implement as well though.

Maybe the person with rpg should be marked ^^

Most OP weapon vs woolheck, can be a nice balance

Nice idea's though

- MM1 can shoot through walls
- MM1 has more knockback, so it can knock players of an edge
- MM1 reload automatic after use

- ? Nade transforms into an object that is actually in the map

- 1 time use for the goggles where you can go invisible for 6 seconds (not go invisible, then visible, then invibisble again) and not leaving a green smoke behind but instead a sound is playing

- MM1 can shoot through walls

that is unfortunately impossible

- MM1 has more knockback, so it can knock players of an edge

can be done easily

- MM1 reload automatic after use

that imo unbalances it a bit too much

- ? Nade transforms into an object that is actually in the map

would require a map modder to somehow define the objects in use for each map. Had the same idea for prophunts.

you mean for seeks?

shouldn't be hard, tho I do think that it will require the hider to actually knife the player.

Yes

 

[Janno]

well we can modify the smoke but having full invisibility would make it slightly op

Maybe can make seeks their steps louder if they use it?

If I’m not mistaken, footsteps sounds are on clientside not serverside

Deff clientside

• Setting custom roundtimelimits per map, some maps are perfect in 2:30 others in 3:30, etc.
• Removing weapons from simple/stun maps(e.g. mp_kam1).
• More clean and simple maps, less over-edited full of boxes/jumping maps.
• (CoD inspired) Let the players decide what the next map is, by calling a multiple-choice vote near the end of each map.

Dont think thats a good idea,
For example:
7 friends go to a netcafe and play sof they tell each other to choose one map then its almost guaranteed that its going to be that map

it sucks we have to put all those little egy things into consideration everytime, and a whole new project idea would be eventually ruined because of them haha.

these 3 are not mod improvements as they already exist.

iirc multiple choice vote is not possible out of box. Would make mapcycles a ton harder to manage because the maps which are playable still have to be defined.

multiple choices could be done with something like !vote <option> but for maps idk if there's a good choice.

Honestly its not just egys if egys were gone and idk uhh russians came in place nothing would change

Hiders should be able to lend each other a knife by throwing it at each other and they could actually recieve it and be able to use it.

the lazyass boeman was supposed to implement this long time ago.
@Janno you should somehow get boe's 1fx mod to-do list, he had tons of ideas noted.

 

[Janno]

the lazyass boeman

imagine the entitlement most useful splash

can be done but this isn't a major game improving modification

ok tbh almost of the people here got janno's question wrong, janno asked about hide&seek improvement, he didn't ask for a new gametype or some small changes .

so the real hide&seek improvement is REMOVE ANY FUCKING MAP WITH GREEN BOXES , just kidding ehm.

if you want a real h&s improvement , just make it a real hide&seek gametype, let ur map makers stop giving a chance for stun or run , hiders need to hide , also if you are talking about what you can dev for it , i think it will need more client side work not server side, maybe you make something like hiders who get killed they go to a prison and maybe their friends can release them somehow , that can be added nicely to this gametype.

 

[Splash]

some small changes

Honestly, those small changes might save players from rage quitting.

Imagine being a seeker in a small map like mp_kam1 while the roundtimelimit is short as fuck and the hiders just running endlessly with rpg.

just make it a real hide&seek gametype

Indeed, a real hide & seek experience is something we miss.

i often feel like its just runners and chasers or something lmao.

who get killed they go to a prison and maybe their friends can release them somehow

10/10


not to mention, that the deadmonkeys concept is quite underrated currently.

so cops n robbers lulw

we're not dealing with clientside mods because egys can't even download a map pack for fun custom maps,w hy would they download a new RPM?
