Base++ Mod

by wingman · in ThinkTanks · 09/06/2003 (1:59 pm) · 17 replies

Play on the base++ mod server and let me know what you guys think. Im not making some whacky maps or anything like that. Everything is staying 'base', except for tank physics and projectiles.

The physics have been changed for each tank as well as all projectiles. Trying to get more mediums/heavies on the servers, instead of everyone simply grabbing a light everytime.

Anyways, play around. Tell me what needs balancing.

Base++ Changes:
-all tanks are faster
-all tanks have tight handling
-med/heavy tanks do more damage
-tweaked projectile settings

Im making this mod for a higher level of competition. I have a few connections over at www.teamwarfare.com that owe me a few favors. I was thinking of creating a 3v3 base and base++ ladder. Whatcha guys think? Plus, thousands more see the name Think Tanks.

Not such a good one in my opinion.

Yeah FP... me too.. but then again I had to relearn after skydiving and island hopping too.. I guess any new style tends to fook up the old.

For me it is toooooo fast. This coming from a 5 month TT vet lol. Most vets who've played the server seem to agree. If you could add a little gravity with speed, that would work.
