DD/Tourny idea

[Blindmonkey21]

Well...maybe you could make it so that all the players of the team share the deaths. For example let's say it is a 4 v 4 dd and team 1 has one player 15-10 one 3-7 one 9-14 and one 12-9 then they would lose because there deaths equal 40. This would make it so that all of the players would play the whole game and it would require more of a team effort to win instead of just a single player doing good. Could also be implemented in the tourny 2v2 matches. What do you think of this?

[Fit of Rage]

I don't like it. Games are much more exciting when you have one on one play at the end.

Your suggestion sucks.

The point is that you have to play whole game as team. When you lose one player, you have big disadvantage (and other team gains advantage by killing them) in 4v3 situation.

true

[Blindmonkey21]

yeah but if one member isn't playing well he might get a 5-10 and wouldn't hurt the team too bad. But if they shared lives and let's say he took 20 lives then he would kill the team, but then if someone was doing good and went 15-2 then there team would gain an advantage by having 8 extra lives. It kind of averages out the squads skill more.

[Fit of Rage]

No, it really doesn't. The point was that one person couldn't carry his squad, right? It penalizes the squad more if all the 14-5 guy's teammates are eliminated and he's left versus 4 warbirds all at 9-8. Not much chance of him winning.

I don't think your idea sucks at all. I don't think its a great plan to implement a system like that in TWD though. However I'm sure some sort of event could benefit from the idea, maybe the TWDev guys or the ECT will have some bright ideas.

TWDev could do that pretty easily, but we have no bot coders available

Edit: Qan made a module that involves teams, and if a player gets 10 deaths then he is out, the rest of the players on that team get sudden death.. Kinda like that idea..except this is removing people, not getting lives. Not sure if its uploaded to twcore yet.

I cant see it in dd but I could see a modified version in tourny.. Maybe if you chose you could give your teamate an extra life or two by typing something to the bot... But not in dd.

The hard part isn't the coding, it's coming up with a game that would be fun to play using the idea=p

[Fit of Rage]

What about a team deathmatch? Like your team receives so many deaths, 10 times the number of people on your team, say 25 for a big deathmatch game. That's about 250 deaths, give or take people coming and leaving. So the bot counts up the deaths using some kind of sum formula and as soon as the frequency hits 250 deaths, the other team wins.

Could that be coded?

[Blindmonkey21]

Could that be coded?

Yeah pretty easily.

It should be implemented into tourny. Tourny gets lame when your partner leaves and you have no chance. Maybe if you had that extra 10 deaths it might make things semi fair.

Hmm a game using this I will have to brainstorm it. I don't have any ideas as of right now.
