[Builders?] Piexes' Innovate

[Johnny Blockhead]

Welcome!What is this?
This server is a deathmatch, with a twist!
Instead of playing as pre-picked classes with set-in-stone abilities, you can create your own!
Everyone starts off with a base character with the same weapons, and they are awarded
skill points. You can invest skill points in, you guessed it, skills! There are two types of skills,
active and passive. Passive skills are always in effect, while active skills can be toggled with
the light key, and cycled through with the jet key. To start investing, use the
/shop command. You start with 100SP, and every tier you buy makes the ability
stronger.
Skill Catalog
All of this information is also available in-game.

Passive
Regeneration -- 10SP -- 4 Tiers
Vampire -- 20SP - 2 Tiers - Gain health for every life you take
Health -- 20SP -- 3 Tiers
Speed -- 33SP - 2 Tiers
Rage -- 20SP -- 3 Tiers - Take less damage at lower health

Active
Time Travel - 25SP - 2 Tiers
Dash - 10SP - 2 Tiers
Harm - 20SP - 2 Tiers - A damage booster that works both ways.
Surplus - 15SP - 2 Tiers - Adds extra HP for a limited amount of time.

Staffing
If you want to be a part of the staff team in this server, you need to have a notable skill.
An example of one of these skills would be building, graphic design, film making, or modelling.
Of course, on top of that you need to be a responsible person and a good administrator. If you
want to try your luck, please use the following application:

The server has just started, and I'm in need of a build!
Currently, I'm using a free-use one by Kicken Wing for
beta testing. It's pretty old! If anyone with talent in that
area would help us out, that'd be awesome! Builders are
rewarded with administration privileges.

If you have any ideas that you'd like to see in the
gamemode, post them!

At this time, I don't believe that I'll start hosting until we have a build. We're recruiting!

I really hope I'm wrong but the op leads me to assume you get gain skill points by spending more time in the server or getting kills?
Because like... Don't do that. That sucks. All it does is make people who have stuck around for longer inherently better than others which discourages new players. It's also very manipulative and is a tool to make people stick around. People should stick around if they enjoy the map or the gamemode, not because they want an inherent advantage different from their skill.

Aside from that huge worry (which I'm sure you've considered) this seems neat! What weapon set will you be using?

Might be a bad question, but what does Tome Travel do?

[The Resonte!]

Rage -- 20SP -- 3 Tiers - Less damage at lower health

what does this mean???
if it means that you deal less damage at lower health then nobody will buy this

I'm almost certain he means that you take less damage at lower health.

Sorry if the OP wasn't clear enough! Everyone always starts with 100SP, unless later on I add special rounds (such as everyone starting with 300 or something). Everything is fair. On the subject of weapon sets, I'm not exactly sure. I'm pretty bad with deciding, and for beta testing I was just using the default weapons. If anyone wants to suggest a good pack that is balanced and not too much bloat (zooming in, ammo), go ahead!

Sorry for this, I just copy/pasted the ability descriptions from ingame. I'll be sure be more descriptive. Time travel restores your position and health to where you were x amount of seconds ago, x depending on the level you upgraded the ability to. Rage makes you take less damage at lower health.

Remember that right now, the gamemode is at its base form and I'm going to be adding in a lot of new things. It's only going to get better. Although, in order to do this, I need ideas. So, if anyone has any ideas that they'd like to see in this gamemode, post them! That's the main reason I made this topic, besides recruiting builders.

This is quite innovative.
