Give Badspot default weps that have been modified.

New Badspot:
---------------------
Default Rocket Launcher that fires faster
Rapid fire guns akimbo that deal low damage but shoot fast
Keed the DWand
Normal size spear
No more shockwave

And I have similar Ideas for Ephialtes:

New Ephialtes
---------------------
Playertype now has right click to run like the sports playertype.
No more shockwave
Hammer that causes a a wave sort of like Rotondo's right click
Wand that pushes players like the shockwave
Default brick gun that shoots lasers
Default pistol that is rapid fire

Please I beg of you guys make the above happen please, Badspot and Ephialtes are getting old and not that fun to play as, and I'm sure scripting the above is easy for someone like Jetz considering the models for the weapons are already in game and all that needs to be done is just add the script and use the default models.

I'm sure more people would join the server if you guys change Ephi and Badspot, also I have another idea....Boss Store!

A store where you can buy items and minibosses like the normals except that at the Boss's store you can buy Final Bosses and enhancements.

I will post more ideas for the Boss Store if you guys like the idea.

Also for the Normals, maybe make Purchasable Health regens that vary from 25% 50% and when used emit a really small version of Dark Samus's shield emitter/projectile, also when your being healed you cannot move.

And no that will not make medics useless, because those Health regens won't heal you all the way.
Max purchasable would be 1 or 2.

I like the idea for a boss store, but not final bosses.

It'd be cool if millionares got little toys (kinda like the donor) and maybe...a purple name? This is probably a stupid idea but.. meh

I think the items should be changed.

I like the tf2 weapon's simplicity, and their models.
However the constructor should get Kaje's DB shotgun.
And Detonator should get a sword.
Runner some kind of melee weapon.

You know what.
Let's give all classes some kind of melee weapon.

Q: Why do most classes not have melee weapons?
A: Melee weapons are extremely ineffective when it close range, most bosses can instakill you while you only do chip-damage.

Snuffers! · February 20, 2013, 03:30:22 PM

I swear, detodragon demolator is one of the best bosses on the server. A few people accused me of hacking i'm so good with it, lol.

Quote from: Dr_Zegobob on February 20, 2013, 03:24:31 PM

I do not think this is a good idea.

I guess there are exceptions, like the constructor and overweight, but for most classes a melee weapon would be fun and useful. (Especially for detonator for close range attacks when the boss is killing you)

edit - It can still be fun to use though.

Badspot has a wand that kills you in a hit and a shockwave.
Are you going to:
Run at him with a sword
Or Keep your loving distance?

Ephialtes is faster than you and has a shockwave.
Are you going to:
Run at him with a sword
Or Keep your loving distance?

Kaje has a giant Mech that can easily obliterate you and can only be killed by Agent Creeper.
Are you going to:
Run at him with a sword
Or Keep your loving distance?

Penthselia is two times your size, has a spear and a sword.
Mocheeze is untouchable with Melee weapons unless that person is clueless.
Demolator can blow you up easily and burn you to a crisp.
Rotondo can make you into a nice cold glass of Lemonade in three punches.
Dark Samus has a missile launcher, a scatter blaster, a shield and incredible speeds.
Spyro will burn you into a crisp in a nano-second.

Do you see what I am saying? Melee weapons are a poor choice for a weapon with these bosses.

I would obviously sticky jump at them and ambush them for fun.

I understand how it wouldnt be effective but it could still be fun to ambush the boss if they're distracted.
If you're skilled, that is.

Still, half of the bosses in the game are too powerful for your petty ambush trick unless they don't know how to play.
I like how you're coming up with idea's for the game, but they won't be very good.

Probably the only one that could use a melee weapon and be slightly effective is runner, and it'd be good against Rotondolol, Demolator, and maybe Penthselia.

But honestly, runner needs something like a bat or sword.

I think the meelee should have special effects, like when you land a hit you get one of these:
60% health restore
Speed boost
Breifly paralyzes boss
extra life (?)
Damage boost

idk, something. because obviously, trying to damage a boss with 15000 hp with a meelee weps while the boss is made to wipe out dozens of people single-handedly is a very bad idea. so something needs to be gained on a hit besides a few points of damage.
