Why would you like to test: this looks fun and i wasn't really thinking about applying (i've never beta tested before) until someone suggested i fill out an application, so here it is i guess
Past experience: if this is beta testing experience then none actually but i guess you can't get any experience if you don't apply to try stuff out i guess.

Why would you like to test: bbecause HOLY stuff this is probably the best server idea i've seen in a while.
Past experiences: i've been admin on a ffew servers before, i guess. (does that count?)

Had quite a bit of silly fun with this, bet it'd be a blast with more than 4 people.
For the final release, I'd suggest a sort of timer to get out of spawn similar to how speedkart kills you if you don't get out of the starting gate. That way when there's 8 people playing at once we don't have people hiding from the actual fight in the spawn rooms. Just give players 15-20 seconds (or more, not sure how long that is) to spawn and customize a car, and then the gates open and if you aren't out on the battlefield fast enough you're out. That should give people enough time to discover a neat combination while also forcing them to make a choice so they don't hang up the game. After a few rounds they'll probably have picked out something they'd like anyway. Also more vehicle selection would always be nice but you seem to have a solid lineup so far.
Also I had a sudden realization that the reason so many people like misc 1 is because the turret gets centered. It makes the thing look nice and symmetrical, and the only other cars that do that are the karts, which tend to be smaller than the turrets themselves.

i think that mare karts of a similar structure to misc 1 would be really nice
part of why it's so popular is because when you add some of the turrets to it it actually builds up the design of the car and the result is a really interesting, kind of futuristic design

but besides that this is pretty fun when you've got enough people and i like how you actually have a chance to stay in the game even after you lose your cart
also i agree with qwepir, and while there seems to be an afk killer (standing on the spawnpoint for too long will cause you to take damage), a way to take out people who spend too long customizing or just sit in the spawn and hide would be nice

also a suggestion for the builds: don't make ramps too steep and try lowering the spawn boxes so that you have a lower chance of getting wedged into the ground and blown up
other than that the build you had up last night was a good one for experimenting with build types (and head-on collisions eheh)

arrgg why do you never host!

Why would you like to test: seems like a cool ass server

Update 2.5

Welcome to space!


This big update adds many things to Death Kart.
Such as...

-Story!
Most good servers need a story for it, right?

Bigger, Better Arena!


Custom Animations!
Ever feel like places just need some small touches?
Now when you enter acid, you will flail and hop around while dying!
Great, amirte?

Along with holding your arm out when you use the Survivor, so it looks
like your using it.

Bug Fixes!
No more falling through the ground or flying into space!
Spawns are placed into the ground with a wall, so when you spawn, people can't shoot at you, and you can't just spawn camp!
Sadly, no third-person vibrating turret fix. (I have no idea how to fix it)

The Survivor

Ever felt like you are gonna lose?
Lost your axe, and can't use your grapple rope either?
Fear no more!
Just when you think you might die, load your last item (a shell)
into the survivor, and your one last shot may choose your victory!

Thats all for this update!
I'll host later today!

Ah, nothing like a night of no sleep

Why would you like to test: i've been waiting for something like this to happen. i saw something related to this in the past on filipe1020's server.

i would like to test on behalf on "aww stuff this looks like fun i want to try this right now." i haven't seen any good vehicle-related servers since speedkart and filipe's server and i just came back from vacation so i would really like a chance to try this stuff.
Past experiences: mauritisio or whoever the forget hired me to be a beta tester and eventer/stuff on his obstacle course server.

if talking about moderator or higher privileges, i am/was admin on a couple of servers. namely "more than 10 of them".

Hosting!
