V2 IS NOW OUT : LAUNCHERS V2 THIS THREAD IS OUTDATED MOD PLEASE LOCK Launchers By Mmmmmmmmmk Infection Launchers v2 coming out soon (11/1/10 - 11/2/10) -A Whole new teleporting system, NO MORE vehicle jams -New Vehicle Room -More places for zombies to shoot from -Looks nicer -Zombies can move around hanging from the roof *CUSTOM GAMETYPE IS REQUIRED Launchers is an infection game where you launch with mongooses and warthogs from one side of the Map to the other side where there is a teleporter that takes you back to the side where you launched off of. In the gap between the two sides there are zombies with rocket launchers, while you launch from one side to another there are loads of rockets coming at you. It is a very fun map to play with friends and can get very dramatic. I came up with this idea in Halo 3, but it has been much improved and made more fun. Zombies Infinite Rocket Launchers 4x Plasma Grenades Indestructible Have 4x Shields for fun 200% Gravity (Cant jump) Pictures Spawn here, take your vehicle and Launch off too the other side Here is where you launch too right when you pass the barrier you teleport back. Action Pictures Please Comment, Rate, and give Suggestions
Couldn't they technically score a few points, then just camp for the win though? I guess your right though, there would be no point as it would cease to be fun.
you should put a soft death barrier that spawns after 15 seconds at the start of a round... cool idea though, fun map
Ya i thought about that and even asked people about that in last nights TGIF (10/8/10) but we all thought that it would rush you out to quick and you wouldnt have enough time to get everything done. We will just have to rely on people that they play fairly. Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried this out today, and I personally didn't enjoy it. There should be something stopping people from camping behind the shields first off, and there isn't. Launching yourself really isn't to fun, and the teleporting is awful. The Launching room is clustered with unused vehicles, and there's not much fun for the Zombies. If your going to continue on with this map, I'd suggest making a lot of changes.
Only 10 seconds to launch your self? I think the soft-kill barrier would work very well. Is there even a point scoring system in the game at all? If you made a time limit on the game, and if some humans still survived at the end of the chaos they should be rewarded I think. Same with vice versa on the infected getting everyone.
Ya 10 seconds to just launch yourself off, but sometimes you fall off your vehicle and it takes some time to get a new one. Or you wanna get in a warthog with your friends, in some cases you would need more time.
Update: I am thinking of removing the roof to make it look not so plain. I have have enough things to change i will make an update with some new stuff.
I like the idea of this map/gametype, but you need to do to this map what bungie did to their halo game engine...gut it out and rebuild, use different walls or windows, add a light or two, fix the grav lifts, don't make it look so bland and imposing etc. To anybody who says that th map sucks due to campers, learn the difference between bad map and bad player and learn how to boot people.
I agree with you on how it is bland, and I think I might update it to make everything look nice and more colorful. But I haven't been paying much at attention too this map lately, especially with my latest release Aquatic. If i ever do feel like making some changes I will definitely make it look nicer. THANK YOU! Your the only one who understand that.
May I explain that you get teleported back to the 'start' after each jump, which would keep adding to the total of time in the 'soft kill' zone until you die. Rocket hog is too spammy and he would be able to hijack/ use the chaingun turrets if someone misses a jump. bottomless clip rocket is better.
Update: Be looking for a v2 sometime this week, I am trying to make it more decorative, but also am fixing the teleporting problem where you get jammed up. Thanks for explaining things to people, you know this map more than I do, it helps a lot.
I got to play this with about 10 or 12 people last night and let me say, this was one of the most entertaining and hilarious games I played all night. Really fun, very hectic and a lot of laughing to say the least. I never came across anyone who just camped the vehicle room since there was no incentive and honestly it's just fun to try your luck against like 10 guys with rocket launchers lol
