Accepted Remove Men in the Middle

Shotgun would be interesting.
Its currently OP for men on maps with huge open spaces and a sniping area. On small maps without any places to snipe, the men get fucked over. With shotguns it would make it much more balanced overall. Although if shotguns are found to be OP, removing the direction change when you hit teammates could shift it to be more balanced.

 

Just give the men in the middle a faster sniper like the M14 and make it two shots to the head. The rifle doesn't feel

Just give the men in the middle a faster sniper like the M14 and make it two shots to the head. The rifle doesn't feel nice at all when you are getting UMP'd. And maybe it would be good to decrease to UMP fire rate but increase the clip size.

 

I'm kind of late to the party on this post, but I don't feel like it should be removed. The gamemode has a balance of either the UMP Players work together or they lose the round. That and with the Scout having its Hipfire Cone broken at the moment just keep your distance and they'll be fine. -1

 

Bump this game mode is cheeks +1

 

A cool Idea IMO would be somthing like hey fun round! take ten seconds to vote on what round you would like to play!

 

Giving newton launchers to certain people should make it more fun.

 

bump, playing this game mode is 0 fun and should be removed

 

I disagree here, sometimes it's fun as all hell to play, I have had so many people start like screaming and shit and laughing the whole time.

I gotta disagree with this and say -1.

 

I gotta disagree with you. Some people go and have fun but the others, they leave the server. We should have a single fun round that starts to cause the decline of a server.

+1

 

NANI????

 

I'm not going to say this means definitely it needs to be removed. But if 44 vote(s) 49.4% say the gamemode needs to be removed (again who knows maybe it's just trolls) but if it's that high, something needs changing with the fun round, or removal.

 

If you work together its basically the most easiest win.

I really dont see a problem with the gamemode

-1

 

I think there should be more men (1-2 depends on player count) but with a bit less HP, but I like the current state.

 

Tried it for the first time today, it's pretty boring and needs a drastic change or removal. Only way to win is for everyone to work together and we all know how well that works 99% of the time... it's a fun round not a "Yell at everyone and hope we all hold hands" round.

 

Even though I personally enjoy the gamemode, I see where you're coming from.

I do agree that it can get a bit monotone playing with an UMP.
I think buffing the UMP damage and adding more men on the other side would be one possibility to make the mode a bit more fun.
I think it would feel more rewarding to land hits on the men that way since it actually does something.

One other idea I have is that you could make the mode a bit competetive among the UMP guys.
What if you had a damage meter showing how much damage you've done to the men in that round so far. Similar to how we had it in the Grimwon/Reapalium events.
That would give players the chance to win the round, like they can in TDM or Gungame.
On top of that you could reward the winning player(s) with some extra points?

What do you guys think about that idea?

 

That could be interesting. Give every UMP guy 1-2 points per damage they deal, and each Man could get like 10 points for every kill they got.

 

Seeing as this came up again, let's see what you think:
In one of the more recent iterations of the fun round (which I'm working on internally), I tried a new concept for MitM in order to spice it up. In this version, there is only one man in the middle, with less health than the live version and a slightly tweaked sniper. The UMPs also deal a tiny bit more damage.
When said man dies, whoever scored the killer then takes his place and become the man in the middle instead, proceeding to try and take down the rest of the players. This goes on until there is only one player left standing. Rewards are given based on how many kills you scored and how close were you to be the last one standing.
I haven't play-tested it much yet (it should be on the PTS soon), but I'm curious to know what you guys think. Would this be a better concept?

(tbh it should be named "Last Man Standing" now lol)

 

Both should be implemented to give that extra enticement and if not, we need to tweak the guns because even when we work together it can be still one sided say if we are on Rooftops that’s an easy win for the snipers or innocent motel where everyone gets stuck in the hallways and gets picked off because everyone is trying to shoot the sniper but shooting through each other

 

This sounds fun and interesting. Go Opal.
