Classic Style CTF Servers

I should have included this in my first post @Klonkinator .

I preferred the ticketed style of playing KAG classic, with smaller maps and less people, think BC flats (200x150, or whatever it was, pretty small), with 20 people max and 200 tickets, limited starting resources (500 stone/wood I think?) and 1 minute build time. I liked faster games and tended to stay away from the 2hr+ slog fest some of the unlimited servers with big maps had. I'm not saying one is better than the other, I'm just putting my opinion out there. If you liked classic slower that is fine, I just like mine to be faster.

KAG Gather FTW forever.

 

Well if you liked fast classic, you'll LOVE even faster beta...

 

Ticket's and Hitcounter plox

 

I think it must be more important, to hear the classic players opinion. Not the ones of the people who came in with steam and heard only two, three words about classic. Let alone that they even played it.
It would be a wonder, if gather could come back with Guro's work.

Oh, guys, I sit here and cry while reading it all. God bless you if you finish this, and BURN IN HELL if not .
If there will be a remake of a classic in new engine, I promise to bring a handful of russian oldfags with myself

 

Just because I said I dislike slower KAG classic doesn't mean I like faster KAB. I stopped playing KAG when gather died. I never played beta for long, nor did I play it as long as classic, I prefer classic over KAB. KAB for me, suffers from too much stuff. Games can be stalemated even easier from that OP class the builder, archer bomb arrows are too op(water arrows are gay too) and the first knight to slash(and hit) wins the game. Classic KAG has a better balance for the type of game play I like than KAB has* IMO.

I would also like to point out, this thread probably isn't the best place to discuss what is wrong with KAB, I just wanted to make sure @Klokinator knew where I stood on this.


* Haven't played it in a few months, I'll play it and adjust my opinion if its changed.

 

Need i remind, we are wanting to remake classic within beta, not -just- ctf.
So things like starting mats and tickets arent much a huge deal right away. I mean sure, they are part of classic, but they arent what made classic what it was. What made classic, was its movement and building technique/blocks.
Pretty much every other variable or change people are talking about changing to make it more classic-like literally already exist in the game, and we can easily reproduce those.
But if were talking default configs here, bc style ctf gets my approval.

 

Hm, I did like the underwater system for classic, it forced people out of the underground, and made tunneling significantly less tenable.
(I mostly play Zombie Fort, and the water system forced you to change focus.)

Also, bomb-based shield sliding would be a great re-addition.

As far as anything goes, I'd like to see WAR, and peasant driven processing centers come back.

 

Didn't skinney make a perfect trap door emulator? Why can't we merge that with this mod?

 

I don't see it in resources anymore... I know for a fact Aphelion used it, or he made his own. This might be the one but I'm not sure if it is and was renamed... https://forum.kag2d.com/resources/community-assets.185/
