Hero Mode

Hello everyone and I wanted to discuss Hero Mode with you guys. I feel like hero mode could have some improvement but I'm not to sure what to improve it by. First of all though I'd like for z8 games people to put in a no smoke or flash in HM because all the noobs and low ranks spam smoke everywhere in the best camping places to work together! Also where do the good HM's go because in Alpha its full of people like these:

    its flodded with newbies because of the high amount of GP you can earn. Most High-Ranks dont need that and play HMX for the ribbons instead ;-)

    Also i think HMX has the improvements you wish for HM. More Damage, more action. I still dont understand wth everyone is only camping there. Hunting down Mutants is much more fun and its annoying if some newb shoots your red-flashing enemy with his M16 just 0.5 seconds before you could stab him xD

    I hate how Xeno can't really be knocked back unless you have a firing squad aimed at whoever it is.
  • Personally, I still don't see why anyone would need anything but the original MM. Mutants get pushed back enough and have low enough HP that you can actually play aggressively, and camping with teammates that KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING can actually allow late-game survival. HM is just everyone camping until they run out of ammo, hide-and-go-seek with the last human alive, or a hero spamming un-avoidable grenades at his feet. As for HMX, while it is faster paced, mutants not getting knocked back means that the only real strategies are to either camp with 5+ other people and try to deal lethal damage before a mutant reaches you (almost impossible, especially with noobs throwing flash/smoke), or hide alone in hopes of becoming a commando.

    Kids these days with their fancy ten-thousand-hit-point-host-mutants... Back in mah day, when we on the mutant side, we hads to THINK before we pressed 'g' or else we'd be shot dead before we even got close! And we'd STAY dead! Didn't matter if the last hit was a shot to the head or a knife to the back, either!
  • Not sure if they've fixed this, havn't been in game for months.

    That was before the kick vote system

    now every room of HM/MM/HMX is like hell for players
    kids who just kick the good players or high rank players
    and if i stand up with those and tell them not to kick ace or high rank
    then i got kicked my self
    even if u got more than 1 mutant kill u get kicked
    that's what is it with Mutation modes now
    rarely i find a room with good players who actually listen to other players and trying to play with a strategy

    There's a kick button in HM/MM/HMX?

    If so, does FFA also have it?
  • I would say, play N.M or H.M.X instead. In N.M. zombies ain't as op and in H.M.X you can kill em quickly.
  • No smoke, flash would be decent.


    That about sums it up.

    Once upon a time some rooms (very few out of the grand total) were hell to play due to an hacker, but:

  • The knock back is not a bug nor glitch and hack.

    Why do you think they give you about 3 times more damage against mutants? All it is doing is changing the style of the MM series.
  • the problem is they don't even kick the stinking hackers or blockers. They just kick whoever i better then them,
