Just a idea how to change the server.

I have been thinking about a way to increase the need for new players to want to come back, and I thought of this. What if we instituted a graduated Zombie system. What I mean is everyone starts with zombies that are on a equal playing field. But maybe there is a 10 step upgrade system for all of our special Zombie classes. For example you start with our Zombies as they stand now as a level 7. For new players, they would start with slower/more visable/less HP, depending on the class. By the time they make it to level 7 they are playing as we have the Zombies now. If they stick around long enough to make it to level 10, they have a maxed out Zombie class. My thougts were 0-100 is class one. That would continue until you make it to 1000 Zombie kills with a class. Since I have 11,000 Zombie kills, I by theory could have maxed all the races, but mine are split between Fast, and Predator, classes. So if I switched to say a Poison zombie, I would be in the same boat as a newb with the class.

This was just a thought so do not start talking a bunch of stupid shit on this thread. If you have a constuctive criticism/inprovement then fire away.

The only trouble I see is that the regulars now will bitch about a fair way to make up for there hours on the server. My only thought to that would be a even split of your kills amongst the 6 classes. Not the most fair for some, but its the best I could think of.

i guess it could work. I think its a little complicated for a zombie mod. I dont really want to have to level up my zombies, just to be able to do everything that is useful about said class would normally get.

Maybe not having maps with secret teleporters that a small few know of. It's one thing to just know the good cade areas, but finding the "super uber secret spot" and laughing at the peons below is just annoying.

actually, that's called "knowing the map"

learn the maps, and this won't be a problem

Having to learn a map before being able to enjoy it isn't a good incentive to return.

people who are too lazy to learn a map aren't really the kind of folks we'd want as regulars, eh?

they're the ones who prefer escapes because they don't have to actually think or do any sort of work, just run as fast as they can.
