Paintball Mod

[Korsakov829]

Alright, this is going to be a difficult mod as you might even need to make a entirely differant game mode. Make a race track with up to 4 cars, people shooting paintballs out of maybe back of trucks.. cars have a set course you just shoot. It would be a really hard to make..

No no no - Drop the paintball part That would just make the game seem too childish.

This is a war game, a spot of paint doesn't mean you're dead. Your body being riddled with bullets means you are dead.

Instead of having vehicles driving shooting at other vehicles, i was thinking more along the lines of a surprise attack on an enemy camp. Just a simple drive-in and slaughter type scenario.
Or maybe being put in control of a tank (just the one) - They could lock you in direct-control mode and actually let you go from area to area taking out the enemies, changing ammo for certain purposes, destroying buildings to get a better shot etc...

They did something similar to this in the most recent CoH game, sadly the tank still had a health bar, unlimited ammo, and always hit it's target. So it didn't do a great job of immersing the player.
In MoW it would work well though, you'd have to be careful to avoid AT guns/enemy tanks for fear of being destroyed instantly, or you might have your treads damaged and have to repair before you can move on.
Perhaps there could even be a scene when you must exit the tank to eliminate an enemy who could spot you and alert others.

Just thoughts though, as you say it'll be very hard to make and i don't expect to see it anytime in the near future. Maybe after a few more MoW sequels.

That would be cool almost like the movie Death Track. Pretty awesome driving in Direct Control mode and shooting guns and racing down a track. Now that would be a mod i would do(If i have the skills and time to learn) or looking forward to someone making. This game would be perfect for a mod like that.

The movie was death race. It would be cool if you could add little bonuses you can run over, etc.

Oops my mistake i meant to say Death Race not Death Track.
Though yeah a Death Race mod for MoW would be awesome. I think i might just learn to model, and someone could code them in?

It's an RTS not a FPS, a paintball mod would be a pointless waste of time to make and extremely dull to play.

autivcly i think that something like deathrace with check points where you repair your car
would be cool

How about this: Ranking system. You can chose differant vehicles at the begining depending on Rank. Kills, rounds won, will add to your score and help you get a rank up. Maybe for differant maps you can run over bonuses. Like in the movie, swords would give your car ammo, and shields could repair your car and add armor plating.

And to try and stick to some realism, lets say its post-WWII, and the Axis and Allied troops are slowly destroying all the cars left over from the war.
