NEW: Death Streak

[Lamron]

I decided to add a little something to help keep players from falling too far behind in the scoring.

Death Streak: Die three times without getting a kill: SPY PLANE

- Spy Plane sees EVERYONE, even players with ECM, and updates real time (no scanning line like UAV)

- As soon as you get one kill, the Spy Plane goes away.

- You have to be killed by OTHER players to earn the Death Streak. Deaths caused by yourself don't count.


I think this "reward" is something that would help a player get a kill, but not be something anyone would try to earn on purpose.

I like it, deaths are -5 a kill is +10 so you are only down by 5 instead of 15.
Good move.

I Like It !!

I'm dying to try it out ! (did you see what I did there?)

Lost_Child pointed out to me tonight that in a two player game, it can be very hard to earn the higher kill streaks. After you get three kills, the only other player has Spy Plane, making it easier for him to get the next kill and stop your streak.

I changed it so that Spy Plane is never earned if there are only two players on the server. Just like bleeding, some features don't work as well without more players and it makes sense to disable them until at least three people are playing.

New Death Streak: JUGGERNAUT SUIT

If you die five times without getting a kill, you will receive the normal Spy Plane for three deaths, PLUS the Juggernaut Suit without movement penalty. After you get a kill, the Spy Plane still goes away, but you get to keep the Juggernaut Suit until you respawn.

Reminder: Death Streaks are only available if there are more than two players.
