New mods to modern weapons server Options

[Rainier_Wolfcastle]

Love the mods with the grenades and satchels. The firey explosion are very good ( and painful).

PLEASE PLEASE do away with the spawn protection. What happened to "spawn killing happens, get over it!" ? To many people whine about it and use it as an excuse for losing. It happens to all of us. I just move on. There is something satisfying about blowing up a group of people (as per the other post on violence in video games).

Yes, I turned on 5 seconds of spawn protection this morning. Slews of people have constantly begged for it, and I finally gave in.

It doesn't seem to have changed things all that much. I am still seeing guys spawn and stay in one spot til their 5 seconds are up, and then boom, they get spawn-killed, lol. But at least this little bit of protection allows a smart/good player a chance to get out of the spawn area.

It's simply no fun to get spawn camped and slaughtered. We who've played MWCM all these months have tasted it from both sides. But MWCM had become a spawn camper's paradise -- those over-100 scores were mostly about guys who know the maps VERY well simply relocating from spawn to spawn and slaughtering. What's the sport or skill in that? I figured 5 seconds of protection gives everyone a chance.

I'm also hoping it will take some of the heat off of the server. Now that it is a {MOB} server, the language and tempers need to cool down a bit. The extreme language needs to stop, the rants and vicious anger. I think the spawn protection is a good start towards this end.

And hey, if it doesn't work out, no problem, I'll set it back to no spawn protection.

Glad you like the new mod features -- mainly fiery grenades and TNT when you get over 30 points. Yeee-haw!!!!!!!!!
