Hide and Seek - Not Prop hunt

[FuzzyCoco]

Just wanted to know what the opinion of the community is. I use to play HnS on CS 1.6 and it was a lot of fun. Auto BHop made it more interesting since we would be zooming around the map trying to catch each other.

Basic Game
So the game is Hide and Seek, T's run around hiding and CT's gotta find them. There are no weapons on the map or via buy menu (other than the knife with some exceptions). Ts cannot use knives and CTs only have a knife. T's get a head start and run around the map trying to not get caught. CTs are seekers until they win the round and teams are then swapped.

Adding some Balance
Since the Ts have no knife, they are provided with some grenades, specifically a flash bang and a smoke. I would suggest a plugin which converts the smoke nades into frost nades, but I think that will take some development. I don't know if any other nade could be useful.

Adding some Fun
Some suggested plugins which make the game fun is a Block Maker Mod. Basically a mod which allows your to place blocks on the map. there are various blocks which can be placed with different effects.
Example:
- Platform (A platform you can stand on)
- Bunnyhop (A platform that disappears for a short period of time after touching it)
- Damage (Hurts you if you stand on top of it)
- Healer (Heals you if you stand on top of it)
This would require builders, trusted community members would help build hiding spots which would fill the map with new hiding spots and paths to juke out the CTs.

Auto-BHop - possibly add auto bunny hop and remove the restrictions on strafing. This would increase the speed of players and would make the game much more interesting.

Final Thoughts
I've been doing some research and a lot of the plugins are ported for CS:GO, what I want to know is the communities opinion on this mod and what support it would get if it were to flourish. Please understand that I am not asking EGO to get a HNS Server. I just want to know what the community thinks.

If you vote, post a comment saying why you voted. Thanks!

We already play a version of HnS for our current events program where the seekers have higher health and the Hiders do have knives.

Our events program runs almost daily and If you become a member you will be able to get your e tag and join our lovely events.

As far as someone building maps and working on map mods for specific events - that would be up to whoever would like to donate their time. Our current map builders are working on all sorts of ideas they want for the game mode they want to play. We don't tell our map builders what to build, they have creative freedom.

If you would like to build a map that would run this block game feel free to drop box your ideas so we can work with you.

Thanks for the feedback. I know you guys have an event server and I would definitely like to join if invited (as of now I am not interested in joining for a tag). I don't think you would need custom built maps for this Mod, but we would need to make jumps (sequence of blocks leading to a platform hiding spot) on existing maps. This would give the map more hiding spots and make the game play more interesting.

To be able to attend events you would need to be a member of the community. We do allow non-members to attend one event as a guest. If you would like to join us for an event, find us in teamspeak 15 mins before an event starts.

An thread will be posted in the next day or two with this weeks event schedule.

As far as modding/map building:
If you would like to build a revision of a map just send it to us and we can test the game play. If you find one in the workshop that is already built send me a link.

Sorry Boe, lol I think I keep confusing you. I have no intention of building a Map. the "building" I'm referring to is using a CS:GO plugin (Block Builder) to place Blocks (entities) on the map. User with access would be able to access this plugin and spawn blocks that they could move and arrange (Like with obstacles, long jumps, strafe jumps, etc). The purpose of this plugin would be "build" a series of blocks leading to a "hiding spot". This comprises of BunnyHop blocks (A platform that disappears for a short period of time after touching it) leading to a "Hiding spot" made up of various non-disappearing blocks like platforms, heal, or a weapon block.

I'm considering getting a server and testing this mod out, if you have any experience with that could you provide me with some feedback. I'm need some information about Tickrate /Priority CPU/Dedicated Core options. I just want to know if any of these options are needed or worth it.

In regards to the events, thanks for the info. I was told that guest/non-members can attend events if they are on team speak and request for the password. I could be wrong, but that is what admins told me when I asked about Dedicated Supporter and being a non-member. Please don't be offended that I don't wish to join EGO, I really like the community and the people here, It's why I donated and made a forum account. I want to be apart of the community but don't feel like I need a tag to prove it.

 

[Mr. Boe Jangles]

I got chu now. So the plug-in would allow users with root command to set up the "obstacle course" for each event?

As far as test server info - you can ask ikillyou, he has a test server that runs plug-ins for our other servers.

As far as events go - we usually only allow eGO members to come to events. But being a dedicated supporter and someone who seems to care about the community - we can talk, maybe work something out in your instance. Find me in teamspeak when you're free. I should be on most of tonight.

Yea, something like that. I will work on a server build later this week and show you a live example if I can get it up and running. If setting up a CS GO server is anything like 1.6, I should have a simple time setting it up.

Update:

I have my server , can't access the FTP or anything atm cause of work web restrictions. I will work on it later tonight and tomorrow when I can work from home. If you or any anyone else is familiar with CS GO server setup and would like to assist please reach out to me. I am still in the learning process.

Not sure what that map is for. Could you maybe explain it a bit.
Side note: Got the server up and running with some help from a friend. HNS mod is working and block builder is setup. My fastDL isn't working properly so it will take a while to join. Boe, I'll pm you later in regards to come checking it out.
