HvH Gamemode Feedback/Ideas: #2

we should rename almost every UPP role to actually be named after what it does and not a rank
also POW hauling is really annoying since you cant move even critted people so you can’t cap unless you have a medic
you should be able to pick up critted people into fireman carry or something with a very long timer to pick them up so you cant just yoink people in combat

I think it would benefit from regular respawn waves so it doesn’t end so quickly. Maybe have the comshubs send in respawn waves if held for long enough, to give both sides something to fight over.

maybe you get like 1.1 marine larva for every POW

Lastly, give the UPP can-openers in their kit.

There’s a knife in your boot, think like a soldier!

On the topic of surrender - there is currently no reason to take POWs. I remember when HvH was first being properly tested that there used to be an incentive of a handful of reinforcements per handful of POWs aboard the ship.

@ValiantEar

Something that makes it so that its less likely for the rounds to end quickly - no one really likes a twenty minute combat round, especially for a ‘special event’ round, do they?

Huge agree on both of these. POW: It makes for cool RP, but I think there needs to be mechanical support and mechanical incentive for it.

Especially:

POW hauling is really annoying

Even handcuffed and alive soldiers can’t be strapped to rollerbeds, only office chairs, makes it tedious to move them somewhere and not worth doing.

‘UPP Heavy Weapons Specialist’?

Something like “UPP Weapons Serzhant” might even be enough while keeping the theming different of the UPP, similar to the Medic and Engineer naming.

Overall fun round, ceasefire is fun to melee eachother, we were pushing welding fuel tanks up & down a road outside Admin.
