Great players...

I was going through my screenshots the other day, and in addition to seeing that I forgot that I changed the settings to take a screenshot at the end of every Instant Action match (anyone know how to change that?), I came across 10 screenshots taken by accident during a match on the server (idk how this happened).

One of them in particular caught my eye, and I edited it to show why.

Do you catch my drift?

Well the grenades on that thing aren't complete shit and if you've ever played that bathroom spammy map (can't remember the name) it's saved your ass at least once.

Well I figure, except for the map Odin mentioned (I've never tried it), the gun is too weak to be used in VCTF. I was hoping to discuss possible ways to make it useful.

I have a simple mutator I found online somewhere called Enpowered Assault Rifle; it's simply a damage multiplier for the Assault Rifle. You choose a whole number, and the gun's damage is multiplied by that much. The default is 5, which I discovered after a short test to be too high.

The other option is to use a different mutator (such as WoRM2k4: Armory) to replace it with something else, perhaps a weapon from another mutator. I've got quite a collection (got a shitload of muts and stuff when I tried to get on another VCTF server... that server went through 3 matches before I had everything downloaded), we could go through that and pick one out, or if anyone has any other suggestions...

I've had quite a few grenade kills with the basic weapon...you spawn and someone is in your face, hit alt fire and nade 'em. Avril kills to the face is fun also when trying to scroll to your HS weapon. Most maps have player spawns near some type of weapon pick up to get going with. Tweaking the basic weapon isn't going to give anyone any type of advantage imo, if in a spammy map learn how to not get hit by using shield or w/e while getting to a weapon locker.

Just stay away from the dual assault rifles, someone checked the code and found they do more damage than the mini.

Very true. double assault rifles are quite powerful. In facing ass, it was extremely effective to pick up the extra gun when you saw someone die... the grenades worked quite well against the scorpions.

I use pretty much everything except the Bio Rifle, Classic Sniper Rifle, Rocket Launcher (no joke), and the Grenade Launcher.

Speaking of which, the Grenade Launcher is underused too...

PPM = Points per Minute

Vapor = 4.67 PPM

Variasaber = 0.6 PPM

But... you use all the weapons... I don't know what to believe anymore :cry:
