    This weapon is an amazing traitor weapon

    (at this current time I am at work so I can't look up the server I was on nor upload the screenshot)

    Basically this weapon is purchasable with a credit for TRAITORS.

    It's a silenced pistol with only 1 shot and you only get one per round.

    If you can shoot a person with it, the parasite goes into the player's brain, causing that player to randomly fire his weapon for 10 seconds until the parasite kills him.

    Sounds like a gun we should add to this server!

    I will update this thread as soon as I get home to upload screenshot and such

    Sounds like a fun idea!

    However, this is too meta game changing to be a good addition to our servers.

    Wtf is "meta?"
    Adjective:
    Referring to itself or to the conventions of its genre; self-referential.

    Basically how the game is played.

    How would it be "meta changing?"
    It would allow a new source of "allowed firefights."
    Consider a player getting shot with a bug (doesn't sound too fun to be him!), and he's killed for firing randomly. That's it. No defensive mechanism, no prevention, just death (especially according to our rules.)

    It's a fun concept, but it'd be a bit too game changing for my tastes.

    Keep the ideas coming,

    The "Serious" in "SeriousTTT" is there in part as an implication we try to keep TTT as serious as possible, and that means realism is a factor. A gun like this wouldn't help with realism at all, and subsequently how little to no chance of ever getting added, ever.

    I thought it was because the owner's name was mr.serious : P

    I thought it was called Serious because of the previous owner's name?

    Also, if that was the case, how can be realistic with Predator, Sub Zero, Spiderman and Robocop skins?

    I like the idea but what if the person accidentaly hits someone and they report rdm?

    Then we would have people getting slain for someone they "really" have no control of.

    Would you really belive that if someone shot you and said it was an accident and somebody made me do it?

    That is true.

    It would show up on battle logs that the player shooting randomly was infected

    True and false.

    Ever wonder why his name was "Mr. Serious"?

    Also, another tidbit - he wasn't the owner, Highwon has always been the owner, Mr. Serious just ran it for Highwon until he was ready to run it(it was Highwon's idea, but Highwon didn't have the knowledge of running a community yet so he let Mr. Serious).

    I'm sorry, but let me add that if you want a realistic server, you're going to have to take out the teleporter, DNA scanner, and UMP. We should probably exclude the maps with portals, as well. I'm just saying that realism really isn't possible with things that are already unrealistic in the game.

    Yes, which is why I didn't say it was solely dedicated to realism. But alot of stuff we don't have is because we're trying to keep it as serious and realistic as possible. And by as possible, it means without ruining the core gameplay(which taking out those things would).
     
  16. Was Mr. Serious a guy with a steam account?

    -1 sorry but I dont think this would work.

    If it makes him shoot his gun off sometimes that could lead to an inno or detective RDM'ing all the people around him... ( you know what that means if a double barrel is wielded)

    If you could take out the random firing aspect I would be a little more enthusiastic about it.

    BeastlyMcKinley You mod, bro? VIP

    Yes like a poison dart gun, that would be awesome, the players health just slowly drains and he doesnt know why, and it causes mass panic and confusion as someone is losing health while no one can see. It would be great, someone should work on this

    It is a good idea I have been on servers who have such a t weapon and I think its funny to watch them scramble around wondering why they are losing health
     
  20. is there any antidote for this poison that maybe a detective could have?
