That would be a unique game mode wouldn't it?

Well this could go two ways: a player would be a VIP, or a NPC will be a VIP.

Either way, the objective of the mission is to escort this guy at the other end of the map, unzombified. The environment should be narrow and tight, with zombies at every corner. If the VIP just gets hit enough to get him infected, the game is all over.

If the VIP is a bot or NPC, there could be commands you could give it, such as stay put or go to a certain point. To prevent lamers from sending the VIP to his or her death, people could vote someone to be the "leader". This person will be allowed to lead the VIP.

Also, if the leader becomes a zombie, the person closest to him becomes the next leader. An interesting option could be to simply order the VIP to follow you.

Player VIPs are given either a pistol with one clip or a melee weapon. Bot/NPC VIPs can be given a weapon as well, but limit that. Player zombies should be able to kill the VIP as well.

All in all, I hope you guys implement this, because that would be completely awesome. Best wishes.

Besides, a game mode like that would be very original for a zombie game. Think about it.

Back on topic:

To prevent dumb people from killing the VIP, in case FF is on, it should always be off just for the VIP, if thats possible. Maybe with coding, unless the VIP is AI, then it can be done.

Sounds cool, me likes. I think the VIP should have a pistol or some other very low-damaging weapon, like the umbrella the Team Fortress VIP has tongue.gif

Oh he should have an usp and kevlar ?
Get him a melee weapon, like a cricket bat (happy.gif) or the axe.
