Quake 3 Arena - Freeze Tag
Let's design how to count scores in the eFreeze game.
The idea came from Impiro. I think this would be much more interesting when the player score will be not just thaws + frags, but with addition of the usefulness of each thaw/frag.
As a start I suggest to categorize all the moments which can be taken into account.
I see:
- Fraggin of an enemy player which is not the last active in the enemy team.
- Fraggin of an enemy player which is the last active in the enemy team.
- Thawing of a mate being the last active in the team.
- Thawing of a mate being not the last active in the team.
- Fragging several enemies in a certain time interval.
- Thawing several mates in a certain time interval.
damn i wanted reply yesteday but site gave me sql error
Ppl won't learn it as they didnt do when we had freezedt thaws style
im and probably a lot of ppl are playing this mod cause they like settings which are set now.
Probably most ppl know that, i prefer more freezeinstaunlagged than efreeze ( cause of nooby hook there ) but i accepted
it. This change probably make me back to freezeinstaunlagged mod.
I just don't get you Adam.
It's just a score in the table. No rules is gonna be chanhed.
Thing is that your score will be not a simple summ of thaws and frags, but something more complex which appreciate how usefull you were during a game.
What is wrong with it?
what about another "value" on the scoreboard like accuracy added then - "efficiency" or smth. like that (in % or points)
i would love to hear the "accuracy" sound of instant death mod. maybe when one killed 3 persons in 10 secs or smth.
over all, i have to be more on adam's site. "noobs/newbies/not-so-good-players" - who are just playing this game to relax a bit, spam or cheating - won't ever get the idea of the game, no matter how you change scoring. those who play this game more seriously know how important these frags/thaws are without any reference from the scoreboard.
teamplay will NEVER be in public gaming - the only chance is to get rid of all score counting! Just show the teampoints! what about that? But this you will never accept 'cause everyone's chasing only for score in public. moreover "noobs/newbies/not-so-good-players" won't take time to go into much teamplay in public - this moment has past years
sorry for my negative view of things, but i think i have a point here...

It can be made as an option. However, we discuss here how scores are counted.
Good ideas, but I think you should use the freezeDT 'winners stay frozen'
this is what I mean:
Blue team Scores!!!! the frozen guys from blue team remain frozen until the blue team thaws them, or red team wins.
That would make team play a little more interesting.
I think you should think twice before you dismiss my idea.

we already tried this option and this doesnt work... ppl complain and ble ble ble
sorry, but who complained? noobs, score-players?! This one of the options, as mutant stated, that would make the game more team-based, not score based. they all only complained, because they get less score while they are frozen longer!
I like this option and I would like to see it again! In time, they will get used to it!
The same thing is custom maps. on weed server it works better and better! many more people have the custom maps from the map-packs now - it is sooooooooooooooooooooo much better! My score sucks on custom maps, why? because I don't know the spawn-points. There is far less spawn-fraggin' which people complain about, too. But yet again people complain because they can't good scores themselves, because of this reason.
Why do we experienced players listen to them? The game should be made, as admins, old, experienced players & the major clans like it! We made this mod what it is now! The others will adopt, I am sure!
Think about it!

a lot of ppl, when i played 80percent of ppl on server was shouting: adam turn off tihs gay thawstyle
I personally dont like it too, becouse i prefer to play clan arena or sth if im frozen 2minutes.
