So, I was talking with Captain Hook and I brought up that I was thinking of setting up a BT (BunnyTrack) server, and with some ideas of perhaps of a sniper server (I'm huge into Sniper Servers myself) I was just wondering if y'all had any ideas on perhaps a new CROSSBONES idea that you had in mind? If so, do tell them here!

It would be useful to use sniper maps that are pathed. Non-pathed but desirable maps could be something we fix so would need to go in a work thread for discussion.
Then you need to decide on the sniper rifle or rifles. Personally I think the Chaos rifle and crossbow would suit the usual mayhem of a Hook server. The rifle has a choice of bouncy ammo and instakill rocket propelled ammo. The crossbow has a scope and can use a choice of regular, poison and hi-explosive arrows.
Many sniper servers can get boring if everyone lurks, so I suggest the use of a mod that adds other objectives or reasons to break cover. This could range from hoard zombies that "encourage" you to move to another area, or an anti-camper mod that can be fine tuned, or desirable pickups that may give you an advantage (the Chaos relics may fill that need), or even use the mod that makes you have to collect the ghost of the player you killed to actually collect the kill. You can steal other players kills so it also encourages all players to take chances they may not usually do.
If you want something to spice up CTF there is a fun mod "Flag Effects" that makes the flags act like relics, giving the holder a super power, or sometimes turning them into a ticking time bomb (better hurry !!!) They are randomised each time the flag resets. This does not change CTF games other than add more variety.

Alright, so this is the list of servers that I propose to to you, the people of Hooks UT Place. Here they are as follows: {CSNP} - CROSSBONES Snipers Natural Paradise {CBT} - CROSSBONES BunnyTrack {CGMM} - CROSSBONES Giant Map Mayhem {CGBP} - CROSSBONES Grab Bag+First 3 should be obvious (Giant Maps are also known as LoTG (Land of the Giants)/Mini-me/Rat maps). ^^ However, regarding the Grab Bag+ Server, here's my proposal to y'all: Each panel/list in MapVote can be whatever gametype, but with a mutator or whatever you want really. For instance, the first panel/list I would like the relic mutators in (y'all can choose whatever gametype ya want - YOU decide ), but the second, third an fourth panels/lists YOU decide and choose what they are/will be! I recommend each panel be something different, be it mutator or a weapon pack (or even both ) -- be creative and festive even! ALSO: This just in (JUST now thought of this )...perhaps, as a specialty server, we can have a Holiday & Birthday themed server! Either of these can work: Valentines Day/Easter/Hallowe'en/Thanksgiving/Christmas -- plus Birthdays(!) -- each panel/list its own holiday! Do you want the holiday server running 24/7/365 ? (I would love that myself TBH ) The name? {CHLD} - CROSSBONES Holiday's & Birthday Festivities I like it TBH! Anyhow, your thoughts, y'all? Do write and tell, don't be shy UnrealGecko Yes dude, this is it! This is what we've all been waiting for!!

I would advise using Wormbos enhanced relics mod as it allows for better management of the relics (and has a couple of new ones). He also made a set of Quake 3 pickups which work with it. People tend to not use the volatile ammo mutator, but I think it adds an extra bit of fun in sniper maps. Just as the player reaches the ammo, you shoot it instead of the player. You get a much more dramatic kill which everyone can enjoy like a fireworks display. Low grav can make this even more entertaining. The original DU.u mutator on CD 1 works online.
That reminds me, try chipping a bouncy bullet off the floor at the feet of a player to launch them upwards (again low-grav makes it more fun).

One of the Servers Should have FOOD FIGHT(maybe), but Mainly its FRY PAN Arena!!! You have not Lived until you have played FRY PAN Arena!!! with a group! Hilarious! (and our CMM players can attest to that!) Maybe on the "Grab Bag" server?
