Hi ZA/FC!
I thought of a new classics game that the ZA Classics server can try out. I think it is really fun, easy to learn, quick, and best when a lot of players are in.
The game should be called, CHARGE!, ASSAULT!, LAST MAN STANDING, or something around the lines. You'll see why in a sec.
Basically, this game is a twist of other classic games, like TREMORS, and PANIC. The winner of the previous game will actually not start out as a zombie, but rather, a human. In fact, the winner only be the only human, the LMS. All other players are zombies. The goal of this game is for the horde of zombies to kill the human. But the catch is that the human can choose the map and the spot of the map of defend from the horde of zombies. The human can also pick a choose a weapon (or two depending on the number of zombies) to fend off the zombies, with max magazine. When the winner chooses to play this game, the winner must tell other players the map, the camping spot, and the choice of weapon as well.
When the new map loads, there is a 1-2 minutes grace period where the zombie is not allowed to kill the human. This is so the human have the time to collect the weapon(s) and ammo and go to his/her designated spot. However, once the human obtains the weapon(s) and go to the camping spot specified before the game, the human is free to shoot and kill the zombies the human sees, even during the grace period. Thus, zombies better run away and stay hidden from the camping spot during the grace period before the human get to the spot first and shoots them. While the zombies are hiding, they should mobilize and plan how to assault the lone human being.
When this grace period is over and the game starts, the zombies can now rush to kill that LMS. Zombies do not have to assault right away, if they need more time to plan or want to time their assault to right away to make the human nervous (but don't take forever!). However, once the zombies do assault, the best way to do that CHARGE as a group or several groups in order to overwhelm the single human defender. Zombies can do a full-frontal assault, flank from the sides, spread out and charge, send decoys to bait the human, send assassins to try to ambush the human, and much more. If a zombie is killed, the zombie is dead for the remainder of the game. Zombies can only use melee attacks. Zombies also cannot use power-ups unless the human say it is ok to (although that will make it much harder for the human). The human must stay at the camping spot at all times. Players in the game will decide whether the human can also use grads or melee attacks.
The winner of this game (and the one who decides the next game) will be the zombie that 1. infects the human or 2. last one standing.

So basically it's like panic, but everyone is a zombie except human, and LMS or infector is the next human.. And also Elim
This reminds me of tremors.. Only it is panic tremors lol.
I like it. We should try it. This would be easy to play with gametype Tremors, but it would be nice if we could script a few things like this like sv_map (mapname) Elim_Shotguns or Elim_Covenant, exc
On another note.. Is gt comp still going on?

Here are some of the maps/camping spots that are ideal for this game. These camping spots have some kind of open plain for the zombies to cross through before reaching the human.
Blood Gulch/Base
Infinity/Base
Danger Canyon/Ledge
Death Island/Top of Base
Sidewinder/Middle Ice
Ice Field/Bridge
Rat Race/Caves
Timberland/a hill
Gephy/Tops
others
Of course, humans can choose harder camping spots if they want, but that is to their own risk. However, they cannot choose any spot that is virtually impossible for zombies to reach them. This includes wires on gephy or locations that involves jetpacking, laddering, etc.
Which one are you? |

We already have an official game like this - called Ao2H, with the difference being that you start with 2 humans instead of one, and the "assault" planning stage is implied.
Also, we have an unofficial game I don't think we've ever added to the classics list called Me versus the World. We rarely play it because it's super boring for the blue team.
Furthermore, every last man standing has the opportunity to have an "epic last stand."
Because of those three similarities, I think this game type is just too repetitive to exist as it's own game.

Speaking of the "Epic Last Stand" I'd like to have more info about that.

Epic Last Stand - when the last man standing refuses to die and makes an Epic Last Stand against the onslaught of zombie's, usually using a shotgun or other equally effective weapon. The human is usually camping, but some have been known to run backwards, away from the horde. Epic Last Stands have been known to reach the 100 kill mark.
For a closer look, here is a video of adder back when we only had the classic server, making his Epic Last Stand on Blood Gulch with a pistol.
