sorry but after you called yourmom what you said in your thread i won''t make it ... i will not do it

do it asher il post in it i got some ideas

no but i may

nope

YAY! hope it is soon :)

Has anyone made a thread about this update yet?

He was in irc the other day and said he estimates the next update should only be a couple weeks away.

nope! the update just consisted of some bug updates and preparations for new game modes

asher did he drop any hints as to when the next update is?

That would be AWESOME if Ben added some new stuff!!

Wow, that totally made my day :) thanks.

One other Idea to make this game mode more interesting is have the players craft or Cook ammo...

After you get X amount of blocks, you can "Cook" or "Craft" more ammo...
So you get 30 blocks, you can do a /AMMO in the chat, and you get your nearby team mates ammo filled 100%.

After so many kills, have it so you can do a "/HEAL" which heals you and nearby team mates.
Might also have a unconditional heal like Killing floor... Hit team mate with pick or shovel heals them... you need to wait X amount of time till the healing regenerates.

in IRC ben dropped some hints of there being some more game modes in the next update or two! this would make a great new default update

I love killing floor and L4Dead!

AoS could bring a new twang to it, by letting the human team have a little time to secure the base.

You start with 0 bricks and have to harvest them. You can use materials build barriers, and make walls thicker to slow them down.

This should make the beginning of the game more interesting. You need to first find a place... Harvest blocks, and build a shelter out of whatever the map provides you.
Then as the zombies are attacking, you have to quickly switch through: Harvest mode, Build mode, and defend with guns.
This should really mix up the game play, so it is not just a trigger pumping fest.

lol i would love this game in a killing floor mode! just a whole group of people could get together and kill some zombies!

Sounds like this would be fun! Have it be an all night thing! Scare those little n00bs ;D

Btw why are you changing your profile pic so frequently?!

Just checking out some other posts about doing AI. I thought of a fun way to use bots to make a new game mode.

Copy and pasted from other thread:

You guys could make a Left4Dead type of game mode with this I bet!

Have one team as human players, and the other as Zombies that use only picks, and can dig UBER fast!!!

Here is my psudeo-code:

Bot spawns.
bot chooses random number between 1 and 16.
bot always tracks to the player # that the random generator made.
Bot moves forward constantly attacking with the pick moving the aim slowly up and down so it can make a tunnel forward.

Other conditions:

**Pick causes damage so if the zombie makes it to the player, it will automatically Hurt/kill the player.

**When chosen player dies bot tracks to new random number.

**When player is above the center of bot, aim pattern changes to tunnel up making a stair case.

**Bot Dies automatically after X amount of time in case it gets stuck. (use this incase any other rule fails for some reason.)

**Bot also dies if the bot dose not move in the Y+ forward direction for X seconds. (give it time to fall from the top of the map, to the water + the time it takes to break a few blocks.)

Other things you might Add:

**Make some of the bots track to the intel or tent. When 3 bots occupy the intel, or the capture tent zone the round is over, Zombies the victor! (or any bot occupy zone for X amount of time.)

** Have a boss bot that can fly, and choose nearby players for a random "Swarm" mode where all bots go after 1 player for X amount of time. (might be fun to increase the bots movement speed to make it more challenging, defending your team mates. )
L4dead does this swarm thing with the big exploding zombies. Pretty fun , totally changes game play.

I have done some simple AI with the blender game engine using only logic bricks. It is not like FEAR's AI by any means.
It is still better than nothing though.
