Just wondering of a cool map to play on, maybe not now since 1.2 is out, but for 1.3 or later ...

As you've read in the story line of BB, theres some sort army experiment or minor nuclear meltdown that caused the rampaging undead horrors. And i thought well they could make a map about the plot.

The Nuclear Reactor Plant for instance, they start off at the outside entrance with soldiers providing covering fire while you enter the plant. The story obj would be, that after the survivours and the US Army had secured the city (Sorta). They would have to shut down or blow up the reactor core ( For some good reason i can't think of ), but they have to get past some crap that i could suggest ;

- Zombies from the plant (Obviously)

- Mutant's mutated by the radiation like maybe just a remodel of the Gnome ?

- Some radioactive hazzards and impassible areas that need to be flooded or decontaminated with useable switches

- Unbreakable doors that could be opened by the Op4 grunt (If they do get around to replacing the AI code with the Op4 Npc's) . That or a new game objective item, the C4 explosive device.

And many other features that could be included in the map ...

- Maybe a stationary gun that can be used at the start to clear a path to the front entrance to help if there is not enough ppl on the map.

- Fred could be sorta like a boss when they reach the reactor core, they get sealed in an have to defeat him before they can shut down or blow up the reactor.

- After they destroy the reactor or shut it down, the blackhawk chopper will pick em up at the start, thus ending the level.


Just a Suggestion, maybe not soon, but hopefully a good idea ? ....

- If the zombies are the default ones that come with BB, then yes.
- Mutants, no.* (Considered "Different type of zombie")
- Passable hazards are easily doable
- Op4 grunt, no*
- New game objective item, possibly, though I am working on a better way for something like that...
- Stationary gun, doable, but highly campable.*
- Final boss Fred, you can't seal the players in because of:
1) Respawning
2) Not all of them will get there at the same time

Items marked with an asterix ("*") are covered in this thread of things not the suggest.

- The devs already have heard out having different zombie types and as far as I know it not nice and easy to add. Also, faster zombies are currently a no-go in general.

- Well, as  i said before to one of your other developers

- I am not a developer. However I am very keen on what can make the cut and be seriously considered by the devs. Also, suggesting something for 1.5 or later when the current version was 1.0/1.1 generally is not going to get any attention compared to just about every other suggestion that is aimed at the next version.

- Then it is a simple breakable

- That works, or you could just put in the BB AI tank

- A bit clumsy of a system though... There are simpler solutions to this by just relying on well made world geometry.

- What happens if you get a player who refuses to co-operate? Also, BB focuses on playing as a survivor, not as a marine or engineer, so that is highlt unlikely at best.

- As for challenge and safty; that will all depend on how tank is positioned in the map.

How are you going to kick someone off the server for refusing if there is no admin present. What if they did not want to be the engineer? And yes, you can choose to play as a mime, however, none of the character skins provide any required or extra abilities.

The BB AI tank will not move if the mapper does not want it to move

You might be surprised, with the right angles, it could still be very challenging.

How does that suggestion have anything to do with what you quoted?

No one could see your pictures, check your avatar links

I don't need to check my avatar link because I do not have one in the first place. And why are you posting such a thing in the suggestions forum?

Ah ya wat i gat to say wuz
yes the idea is good with the beginning of Brainbread.
But i ask you: How did you image it yourself ?
i think it´sa too hard to make.
Make a Winchester Bar from Dawn of the Dead, or the Mansion from Braindead.
That would be much more greater.
