ttp website bug?

**Rage!** · 09-25-07, 03:12 PM

is it just me or is everyone able to see clan private forum threads. what i mean is if i scroll by a new topic in lets say killers clan forums, i click on it and it says "this topic is off limits" thus leading me to believe that this topic was in their private forums and not in the public forums. i have seen other topics in the bigtex forum, tcz and others that i could not previously see. maybe i have just gained super spy powers from playing so much tf2 as a spy :2

Rage,

All I can see are clan Public Discussion forums.

Also, we have a thread just for web site issues. It is stickied in the Issues, Ideas, Improvements forum.

I dont know if anyone thought of this, but i thought of this in the making of L4D1,

A human Controlled Director.

i actually thought you would beable to do this in the first one when i was reading up info for L4D, but i guess not

i think a human controlled Director would be awesome
he could choose
-where tank spawns
-how many medkits are spawned
-percentage of smokers,hunters,charger,boomers are spawned
-where witch is spawned
-enviormental changes
-moved some objects
maybe some other stuff...i think this would be soo fun to play with.
but of course we would still beable to have an AI director

It'd have to be in a sand-box mode sort of thing, not in Versus, imagine people spawning 5 tanks just outside the saferoom door, no medkits for the whole level, hordes every second you stop etc.

Overpowered, sorry.

D&D, much? lol

thatd be fun
but the pc version already is kinda like that. Get bored? z_spawn tank. Dont want it? Kick tank. Need a health? give health. Hate everyone? z_spawn witch z_spawn witchz_spawn witch z_spawn witchz_spawn witch z_spawn witchz_spawn witch z_spawn witchz_spawn witch z_spawn witchz_spawn witch z_spawn witch...
lol

There already is a Director-Ish mod like that. Except it's for Half-Life 2, but you do control Zombies.

Anyway, if anyone does make a Director mod, it'd have to have some severe restrictions to what the human Director can do.

Let's say... you can spawn only four SI at a time, but each SI type only has a limit of two, otherwise every match would be a case of Hunter spam. You can have a Horde made up of ten or fourty CI, but the larger the Horde, the longer the cooldown time before you can summon the Horde again. You can only have one Tank and Witch per level, and each of their spawn locations must have distance from eachother. You'll also be able to move the Common Infected that have currently spawned, allowing for a greater feel of strategy.

it would have limitations.
a lobby would say if the Director was AI or Not. and it could allow you to choose to search for AI or NO AI

Zombie Master ftw

Anyway, a Zombie Master mod for Left 4 Dead would be awesome, just gotta set limits for the director, like how frequently he can spawn a Director mob, limits on setting SI (he may only be allowed to place SI one at a time), limits on the tank, etc.
