Friendly Fire in Zombie Panic Source?

[[AUS] Midnight]

This is probably an old topic since its been mentioned before in zombie panic.

But I could not find a topic about it in the up coming release of Zombie Panic Source.

So....Will there be an option to have friendly fire in ZPS??

I know some people like it and alot dont.....depends on wether you like more realism in your games or not.

Its usually the decision of the server owner/operator/admin.

It does make the game more interesting though....

All steam games I know of, got friendlyfire.
So I think it would just be lame if zombie panic: source should be the only game without friendlyfire.

And it would just be a new restriction for the players of zombie panic: source, instead of an option.

With FF, people will actually have to watch where they are shooting if zombies get into close combat.

[kusari_gama1]

ok thats why the made blades as a weapon in close combat areas duh so i would take out the blade and start ripping up some faces and get a lot of pts to get in 1st place in the server! >:)

plus people well be more careful and whare they shoot and they save more ammo.

I also hope ff will remain. At times it can be nice, altough it mostly get boring, with everyone becoming paranoid on the human team and killing each other. But the majority of servers would probably not use it regularly, so I doubt it will become a problem.

Well, if you wipe gone all those teamkillers then it would be a nice idea.

I like friendly fire becuase it means you have to watch where you shooting, but I hate when someones just there to be an *** and keeps killing his team.

[acker]

What if you change friendly fire to reflect? That will clear up team killing very quickly.

No realism >< :mellow: , and what if you hit someone by mistake? Too solve teamkill problem the server must have at least one admin that kick/ban.

What if FF could be turned on without a message poping up warning everyone. :laugh: Then it would be more realistic without ppl killing each other.

Is the ability to hit your teamates without them taking any damage more realistic? With reflect, teamkill isn't as much of an issue.

I guess they could add that as another cvar:blink:

[NeoAssassin]

I dont like ff, cause even if you are trying to be realistic. There's always usually somebody that comes around and screws it up.

They could just put in a cvar that you set so that after a person gets a certain number of tks they get kicked/banned. You can already do that if you have the plugin for amx/amxx. But im not too sure if you can do the same thing with manimod if you'll be able to use it on zp:s. I'm pretty sure there is plugins like that for manimod though.

[zombiepanic]

Friendly fire is good only if their arent any retards in the server to screw it up, so ya an admin with kick/ban would make it fine

[Hastings]

I life friendly fire myself, makes it that much scarier knowing that a freaked out human might put a hole in you as you turn the corner. That said idiots do ruin it and it causes admins to be very vigilent.

[CaptainSnake]

If you do put FF on make sure the bullets don't hurt that much. I played on a FF server last night (it was a listen server) a survivor accidently poped 2 pistol bullets in me. and since the pistol does 30 dmg he got me downed to 40hp

[Hastings]

Friendly fire is a server thing snake, not ours to decide on, and I beleive its a cvar for dmg as well.

Well I never knew that.. but I know in NS theres a FF ratio or something like that..

I played on a server named Tacticle Gamer. They had FF on but the ratio was like 0.20 so you only did 20% of the weapon damage to your teamates

[JK-]

I didn't even knew about that any mods had a cvar like that:blink:

[CaptainSnake]

It does! Click "Create a Server" in NS and check it out

There will always be jerks using FF to their advantage and killing everyone. Thats why FF is a very stupid idea, Realism = stupid.

[Clint]

Well, we ARE talking about zombies, and besides that one dog they resurrected there are not many cases of 'actual zombies' to rely on for realism. However, my personal opinion is to leave it up to the server operator.

Although FF does make it more realistic (fun imo) in CS:S, it wouldn't work very well in this scenario, because whether there's a setup for normal ff, or the mirrored ff someone mentioned (hurting you every time you shoot a teammate), there would always be someone either killing their team or intentionally jumping in front of their teams bullets just to be an @$$.

However, if some survivor is being an idiot to literally try to ruin the game for you, you should be able to pop em in the head as you would in real life if someone's about to get everyone killed.

[moomoocowman]

^ Yeah I agree, it should at least be an option. Also door blockers=no problem, a bullet to their head will solve that problem.

You could always like.. you die as a survivor from gunz you come back, like you can kill yourself and come back as human but lose all your weapon and possibly some resurrection sickness... What?! no thats not from WoW... maybe... yes...
