the only difference between the suggestion in this post and others is that the "1" gets the chaingun. most others follow the standard gta2 gametype where the "1" didn't have any weapons and had to come up with clever ways to escape/kill players

wouldn't that be like a huge advantage to the cops then?

how cool that ur basically spamming the board?

are all your ips static or something?, cos in nz most of ours seem to be dynamic = no ip ban

u obviously missed KomoSuraf reply to someone elses feature suggestion (about police cars if I remember)

"what a n00b." (gee I wonder who I was quoting) nah seriously unless there's a special game mode that allows snipers I can't see them working in free for alls and stuff/

uh yeah sure.... let us know when u wake up from this dream u seem to be in.

because compression on small things often make them larger, and you can't compress multiple packets together without introducing extra latency

why not just go look at the girls instead of playing gta?

ok firstly the manhunt would nearly be impossible without some kind of radar system, soon as the hunted is lost it would nearly be impossible to find them on such a huge map. However I do think the normal radar would make it too easy, I was thinking about gta2, which had a similar gamemode. It worked with arrows pointing in the direction of the player, like a compass, maybe a distance in metres too would help. To be honest there are alot of cool features that were in gta2 that would be a great addon for mta (oil slicks, car bombs, mines) but as I see it the mta team have enough to work on atm anyway. Also I dont see why everyone should respawn back at the mansion, why not just make the person who got the kill be the next person in.

i thought we rubbished this idea already due to not wanting to turn around to check if the guy behind me is chatting.

it may worth be limiting the area (if thats possible) for LMS type games. it also wouldn't be any good without some kinda spectate mode (i remember this being mentioned before but was unsure it was actually added).

come on by now u should know its not wise to use the upgrade method

i seem to remember hearing it made boats lighter so they could kinda fly

i'm guessing freezing/stopping

would be nifty to have passengers hearing the same music too, however unless you actually sync the position of the radio in this case it wouldn't be good. Although i'm guessing most radio stations aren't more then 255minutes long (and if it is well you can eat into the radio station byte as it would only need 3-4 bits), so two bytes of traffic when the radio changes (one for the station, one for the pos) . but then what would happen if they stuck it on mp3?. maybe we'll see features like this nearer to a final version (ie not 0.2 betas but a 1.0 kinda thing)

you wouldn't need to stream the music. everyone should already have it available to them. all they would need is to know station and elapsed time (where to start playing from) while this would kinda be a nifty feature I dont see it happening.

so I'm gonna have to turn around occasionally to check the guy behind me is talking? I think there should be team chat (when teams come) and whisper which is sent to anyone within say 10 metres of you or something
