Wish: VIP Mission

(signofzeta) #21

lol, imagine a VIP mission where medics revive the VIP, and heavies can carry the VIP anywhere so the medics can revive them in a safe zone.

But it won’t be ranked :frowning: (right ?)

(Nail) #23

there is no ranked server

(BeyondSpectrality) #24

Luckily for me I don’t really care about ranks and the like.

(AnthonyDa) #25

So all mods and all custom content (if there is any SDK) will stock my XP and allows me to unlock new persistent upgrades ?

Did I hear statpad bigtime?

(signofzeta) #27

It reminds me of “THERE IS NO WASHROOM”, but except with ranked servers.

Imagine getting XP for being a cartographer.

That’s actuallly a good thing as it means that statistics are meaningless for anything else than to keep track of your own stuff. I am however worried about quality control of the servers.

We’ll need some servers with dedicated admins. And I don’t care if people really want to statpad to get the unlocks. I’ll get them soon enough I guess, I hope it doesn’t take more than 40 hours to get them all.

Afaik only the ‘hardcore’ servers can change anything drastically that would change gameplay (for competition reasons) to which I’m sure there will be a filter in the browser for.

In regards to custom content though, thanks in part to the pure system restart business I don’t think there will be great flood of mini mods like the ones that plague ET on any server, hardcore or otherwise, no one will want their game to restart a couple of times to connect to a server for sake of a few funny sounds, texture edits and panzer parties… (least some good may come out of the system)

Just hope people will still be up for some maps and ‘proper’ mods though.

yes, as you can upgrade offline as well as online
if you are asking “Can I make a map just to gain xp ?” yepper, but remember no matter how many upgrades you have you can only use a couple at a time, so everyone will be equal after a few days play anyways

Totally agreed, W:ET has been corrupted too far by all these nonsense mods (I’d like my main menu without waffen SS propaganda thank you very much) and ETQW’s custom content wasn’t accesible enoug because it the ranked servers filter was hidden too well.

See, I never played W:ET but I played ET:QW and then I found out about Brink at the last E3 but had no idea who it was being developed by. When I found out it was SD I decided to look a little deeper.

After joining the forums here I found out about W:ET and tried to download and play it. It seems like I can’t get into a match other than one I host and it also seems like there are 50 billion mods and what not that download every time you try and join a different server ;/
