[page updated April 24 2008 -> at bottom]
This is a Game Mode I have specifically designed for TF2, based on the epic battles in BF2142's final fights on the Titans.
Gameplay instructions: -Each team has control of a single Primary Power Core and three Secondary Power Cores. Each team fights to destroy the opposing teams Primary Power Core. The Primary Core, however, remains invulnerable until the three Secondary Power Cores have been destroyed. -When all three Secondary Power Cores have been destroyed, the invulnerability on the Primary Core will be lifted, and an alarm (included) will be triggered to single the last lie of defense.
There are further instructions and set-up suggestions in the read me file. [edit] Important: Do not test maps without the Primary Cores, otherwise the entities that control which team can cause damage will not get added.[/edit]
Denote maps with he prefix "core_"
I wanted to include this in one of my own maps, but the way I'm so busy with everything at the moment, I might never find time to finish.
I hope you all can make great use of this prefab as it has been a blast creating. Feel free to change the design of the cores as you wish.
[edit]
Important: you must have the Primary core in your map, otherwise the entities that control which team can cause damage will not be present, allowing any team to cause damage to cores.
I tend to have a lot of fun coming up with different game modes, so I'll be sure to come up with some others as well. Not to mention, but I plan on releasing a prefab from my KotH mode soon.
No credit will be required.
Side Note: I would have placed this in a prefab category for Game Modes, but a mod deleted before I had the chance to place it there.
[update] After having played on a server for a while today to suddenly see my game mode in play (all be it a poorly designed map) I've come to the realization that the game mode can be some what complicated to some people. I cannot stress how important it is that you place some kind of instructions into your maps, or make it impossible to come into contact with the primary core without first having destroyed the secondary cores. This is only suggestion, as the server I was on had people wondering what to do until the server finally ended.
I'm trying to properly figure out some other entities to make this game mode easier to understand.
Happy Mapping.
[update => 04/27/08] I've finally come up with a floor plan that I feel will accent this play mode well. Now the only wuestion is if I will finish it.
