Adding A Bot Command To The Dodgeball Server

Recommended Posts

some servers have a bot command for the people on the server to vote for (basically puts everyone on T and the bot on CT) and the bot is unkillable. basically just a practice bot for people.

 

also would help out the people who want to populate the server have some fun. (tbh i dont think anyone would join an empty server with nothing to do)

 

ps - so far ive seen no dodgeball related rules such as

 

- no stealing (optional. tbh i dont really care if this is put in)

 

- no teamkilling (killing yourself while a rocket is yours does a weird glitch and goes for another person. they wont know its theirs either because they dont hear the sentry noise)

 

- no orbiting for too long (keeping the rocket to yourself and trolling)

 

just some rules. feel free to add some '-'

The "no orbiting for too long" should be added in my opinion. The longest I have seen someone orbit when I was on a dodgeball server was almost for a full minute when the rocket finally went off on the ground as it sped around him in a almost perfect small circle. Dude didn't even have to move. Since he was the last one alive on the team, there was no one to stop him with their own airblast. If no "no orbiting for too long" rule is not added, could it at least be, "Do not orbit for more than X seconds as the last one alive on your team"

 

"No stealing" may not need to be added. Nothing is funnier then when a rocket comes right at you and someone tries to steal it but only gets themselves killed in the process.

 

I personally have not played on the Dodgeball server yet, but if the round carries on for to long does it A, add more rockets, B, make rockets start with higher velocity, C, just end the round in a draw, D, give everyone a melee weapon to end it like men, or E, other.

here is some other stuff

 

decrease time on roundwin to like 2-3 seconds (can get annoying)

 

add more maps (ofc)

https://gamebanana.com/maps/171969

https://gamebanana.com/maps/163642

https://gamebanana.com/maps/174790

 

if you can, make points perm on gameme for the dodgeball server only (alot of people like that in dodgeball)

 

also, make the rocket go a bit faster starting off? (like 45mph and then 10-15 extra every airblast)

 

add rtd (again, alot of people like this in dodgeball. and yes, even the spawn sentry rtd)

 

edit - another rule - no blocking (getting infront of someones view on purpose and standing near an enemy so they cant move in your direction which most of the time people die from)

 

show top speeds for players for bragging rights. ex - so and so top speed - 346

meh. i only say that because some people rage when they get cqc'd (basically just standing next to a person and airblasting the rocket right after they do)

If they make points perm then there def needs to be a rule about "No point farming I.E. pyros on both teams intentionally spam air blasting a rocket a point blank to farm the reflect points" - I don't recall there being a "No point farming" in the MOTD but I know it is already a rule on all point enabled HG servers.

 

For the rtd it should be edited for Dodgeball. Sentry would auto-rekt / ruin a round since a well placed one would kill most of the enemy team within its 20 seconds (I doubt noobs will reflect sentry missiles). No Toxic since when ever I see someone roll Toxic, they just rush a spawn and spawn kill farm for it's whole duration. Make the rtd for Dodgeball partially resemble the CS:GO TTT one? All effects are round long instead of 20 seconds. Low grav / high grav, bonus HP / lose HP, stripped for X duration or gain a melee, freeze ( only X seconds), and whatever others I am missing, or make another suggestion thread for "roll the dice" ideas.

 

More maps is almost always more fun assuming the map is not broken or exploitable. Some maps I think have breakaway floors after X time to prevent draws

just disable free vip on the server so there is no point in points :-)

 

and yep, the rtd should be edited. but the sentry rtd isnt as bad as you think '-'

 

and almost all the tf2 dodgeball maps can be exploitable. sucks but whatevs

 

also - i think we should actually have an eu server starting with dodgeball. ping is noticed when it comes to dodgeball because your airblasts are delayed leaving me to guess when i should M2 '-'
