Hi,

I have a suggestion for a maybe future update:

We @ LoG-Obs have a lot of suiciders on the VIP gamemode. We could of course kick them, but one of our clanmembers came with the following idea:

An admin command that forbids a player to be obs / vip.
The forbidden player will not be randomly selected as obs/vip but will stay hunter.

Is this a possible feature?

Thx

The latest update allows players to swap positions with the VIP now, which will reduce his ability to camp in safety and make it a bit easier for Obscurity players to get them alone and take them out. You can also use gore shot on a marine even when he is not damaged, and when he does get killed he will explode if it was within 30 seconds, thus blinding with blood, those in range, again giving you the opportunity to gank.

This should make it much more balanced so that the Obscurity players can actually take the VIP easier, and hopefully reduce the amount of deliberate dying and tk'ing to end rounds quicker. I suggest giving it a try for a few weeks and letting us know how it goes.

It is probably possible, but we are trying to limit the use of additional dvars as each one added makes the the game more unstable and more information needs processing.

You can also posses a soldier and kill the VIP. But that is a good idea!.

I had a similar idea recently. As punishment for making the teamkilling list, the person is also automatically opted out until they are off the list. The idea was rejected though, as Falcar thought "what if I accidently get on the list and want to be obscurity?"

I told him to make himself exempt and he said no (he r so sillyyy)
