-DUEL MODE- suggestion for 1.2

[ScavengeR]

i know that this has been mentioned before and i dont see why not have it. a new mode for ESF, similar to jk2 where two players fight it out against each other under a time limit while others spectate(could use HLTV features), once one player loses, one of the spectators takes on the winner.. can i have feedback on this pls?

Here is the feedback.

No one likes this suggestion. Format your computer.

But I am proud of you, you actually searched. Makes me wanna cry *tear*.

Anyway, how would this system work? I mean, now would it just erase everyone else from the screen, and just you and him? Or would it be like a tournament, where its 1v1 against set teams? Maybe you should be a tad more specific with you suggestions.

only 2 players are dueling while others are just spectating, they can't do anything but watch.. they could mess around with the camera. When one player dies or when the time runs out, the winner stays in, the loser cues up as a spectator and another spectator goes in to fight the winner.

This was discussed a long time ago. You mean a mode like Rocket Arena from the Quake series.

Here's the last I heard about it. Too much work, not getting added. They just want to make the game that modes that they want, ie: Free for all, Team mode, Capture the DB.

i know its been discussed before but i think duels are what makes DBZ. and players can really test out their skills against one another. its no fun in a free for all where players are fighting each other only to both be killed by a beam-spamming noob. and i think it would be fun to watch others' playing styles and strats.

You could only do it this way: set up 1 on 1 server with a password and play with a friend. I think they should have a spectate mode too, so you cna chase-cam players. Maybe it is already in it? The only con is you will get wasted slots on the server with people not playing.

They have a spectator mode, its just not fancy.

Also, this duel system style has been done in Ricochet in I think rc_arena.

 

[ScavengeR]

yeah, it has been done in ricochet... but i just think it would be an appropriate mode, it fits the dbz style and i know harsens, my hero can code it in the time it takes me to run 50ks. ;D

i think the suggestion is cool... i'm sick of trying to duel someone while people just spam us with beams and melee attacks, making it utterly impossible to play :/ does anybody know the command to boot a player?

type status
look at the number directly to the right of the person
type kick #(number)
or kick (persons name)


ON TOPIC: I think a dueling system like jk2 would be good. It would allow people to fight uninterrupted. God knows ive kicked a few people because they would leave me and the person im fighting alone. Even after repeatedly asking them to stop.

But I dont like the idea of forcing everyone to spectate. Let them fight amongst themselves while the duel is occuring. If they which to watch let them.
