Traitor flag (TR)

Post by dartman »

This is a "bad" flag makes you a rogue for a short period of time. Teammates and enemies can go after you, and you are unable to cap in CTF play, but you can also shoot any tanks you wish.

Seems more like a good flag. Kill all your team mates.

I dunno, I guess it's kinda in-between. You can kill your teammates, but they can kill you. And it only last for a bout 15 secs-1 minute.

nah, you need a public enemy #1 flag... where you become rogue and all your shots are super-genocide... they kill EVERYONE.

Hmm. I think all it should do is make you look like a rouge. The inverse of colorblind.

I never make stupid mistakes. Only very, very clever ones.
It is not the fall that kills you. It's the sudden stop at the end.
Always remember you are unique. Just like everybody else.

I think the original idea in this post is quite a good one. Though the idea that you can swich to rouge halfway through play with this flag might discourage CTF...

Um, no....I said in my post that it would only last for a short time. There would be a time limit.

That's what I said. Did you read my post?

Traitor flag might just be a bad idea due to the fact teammates could possibly kill you for a raised score, making your score drop. Although, if they attack you attack! :D

That's the point. It makes everyone go after you.

I like the idea that it turns you rogue like the inverse of colorblindness...

and if anybody kills you they aren't kill your color (kinda like a geno blocker) but if teammates kill you they make points and don't get the tk for it ;-)

Now that's a BAD flag

Blocks geno (so the entire team dies), and teammates will have an incentive to kill you.

TR flag should just lower your shot range/jump/speed. Nuff. Should also allow anyone to kill you, but you still can't kill team mates.

^Nah, that would be so limited, and then what's the point of calling it Traitor? I stilll think my idea works best. Maybe you could think up some other flag idea that does that.

If a fellow team member shoots at you while you are with this TR flag and then the timer runs out and that team member gets a teamkill. :\

^Maybe when the timer is about to run out you get invincibility for a couple of seconds until you run ot of time.

ok, when i read the title, i was thinking, a flag that puts you on another team. which is cool. when you pick it up, you get a warning saying 'you are now on the ____ team'. and now you're a different color. that's a traitor flag. the flag you're discribing could be a rogue flag or whatnot. w/ this one, you'd still have teammates and enemies, but the teammates you had are now your enemies. and this doesn't need a timelimit. you can be on the other team as long as you want, or until you die or want another flag.

but the 'rogue' flag is interesting too. :)
