I think he actually is asking to having the thawing as an option for server side config instead of limiting it as a gametype. If implemented properly it might be used for existing gametypes like ctf or ptl. It might even remove the need of having ftag as a gametype, as it could be plain tdm with the thawing option. Sounds like an interesting suggestion, but a complex one so dont expect it to be implemented anytime soon.

Lol, i understood it wrong then xD. However, i cant see the point of thawing enemies, also in config you can still thaw an enemy with damage anyway. So wont implement.

Unfreezing opponent in pub serv can be interesting:
cause then game goes for collecting points, and teams can have traitors or etc Big grin

Yea in fw's cws its no point but, in a past there wasn't even such a thing like freez tag... And someone sayed what if we can froze and unfroze ?

Some time ago i was pulled up idea about freez in ffa..
In that way some players if they don't want, plays sneaky by unfreezing and collecting points. unfroze+1 point, will be cool.

As ftag is the key off e+ mostly. So i think expanding this thing, can be attractive and something new.

Btw idea server side whole ftag thing is brilliant thing (hard one but still interesting) !

well, i think that there is no point in such implementation. There are many 'strange' or just 'not-so-clever' guys and girls on publics. Also, playing on publics, few ppl have aim to win map as a team (like blue or red), but mostly its just scoring for urself, like to have more points better efficiency etc. So, bcoz of this, i think that there will be 0 - 0 till suddendeath Happy .

But here is 1 thing about freezing and thawing. Imo FreezeTag has just no friendlyfire good and useful implementation. If we have plusN xp_freezestyle 0 (armors and powerups) having our current ff ur teammate can : shot u and kill to get ur quad; shot u and take ur ability to survive 1 rail ( u had 600+ hp -> 600- hp). Thats just shit. So good idea would be such ff system (only for g_gametype Cool : if ur teammate shots u and produces N damage - U receive NO damage(just knockback) and that person, who shoted, receive N/K damage, where K is a cofficient that should be picked manually Happy
I htink that K = 2.
That is megaidea by megakak.

sry for my english Winking hope u understood me Happy

u mean that the teamshooter gets a penalty by losing f.e. half of the damage he would have done to his teammate.
i liek, could be a massive solution to spam on publics! pls implement D:

There are already options to improve friendly fire on freeze gametype: FreezeTag->TeamkillFreeze. You can freeze the attacker (the spammer, good for fighting public spam), or the target (the teammate being teamfragged, good for clan wars). PlusN has already the latter one implemented, but i dont think no one has actually tested it.
