Hunt or be Hunted

[Supa]

(Get the latest release !)

Hunt or be Hunted is my attempt at a teamplay Humans versus Fiends elimination gametype.

Actually, to be more precise it's a soft elimination gametype: Eliminated players can still play, but they won't be as strong as regular players. Should an eliminated player make three frags, they'll respawn as a regular player again. So to win rounds you need to keep the regular players on your team alive whilst helping the eliminated players make frags.

Right now the mod is fairly basic - I'm planning on adding in a upgradable class system, custom HUDs for each team and a number of other gametypes (including my own take on a RTSFPS gametype - but that's a long ways away). Think AVP mixed with Tremulous and you'll have an idea of what I'm trying to (eventually) accomplish with this.

This release *should* work in any NQ engine (issues have cropped up with FTE however..), but I'd recommend you run it in DarkPlaces just because. =)

Once you've tried it, please play a few rounds with us - Urre's server will be up most for the day, just connect to 213.114.202.22:26000 and play. =)

Sorry for taking so much time for getting r2 ready, here are the changes from r1:

* Weaponset has been condensed to spawn weapons + one pickup for each ammo type, Fiends must pick up weapons to gain mutations - map control actually matters now.

* Powerups have been added back in.

* Throws added - collide with a player at a high enough speed and you'll launch them up a bit, giving you a chance to land free hits for a while.

* Fiends will drop Egg pickups on death, which give Hunters a health boost and promote Broodlings.

* Fiends/Broodlings can juggle players in midair with repeated slashes. Works best when you corner Hunters in places like DM3's central atrium.

Sounds good, now update your booth in a way that doesn't make it sound dull (because it really isn't). An action screenshot alone, maybe a bulleted list, a list of powerups the fiends can have, things like that =)
