Greenblood
Last update: 07/09/17
Greenblood is a simple mod that adds classes for you to play with. These classes can be used in a variety of gamemodes, but they are designed specifically for Team Strike. The idea is that players should use this mod when playing ts_Operation Leafbleed.
You can see the hull and items every class has as well as their price in detail in this spreadsheet »
This new Team Strike lineup was originally intended to be slightly based off the original, so most classes (4) use matter weapons. I'm not trying to mix lots of stuff, just have some custom unique classes and redo how the balance works a bit. For that reason, I've also tried to make all tier 3 more equal in power than they are in the default matter setup from the vanilla game; there's less of a price difference from left to right, and all T1 classes can be purchased on round 1.
Once the mod is activated you need to set up the classes when in the Team Strike map settings menu. The order, given the prices, should be as follows:
- Lethal Agent: Just like the normal TeamStrike Agent, but better. A nano dispenser and basic shieldbelt make this class much more viable now.
- Outpost Sniper: A new sniper class, which is cheaper than the normal TeamStrike Sniper but doesn't go invisible. Instead he has Nitro Grenades.
- Bomber: A grenade-related class, also the only one to use Plasma weapons. Has many grenades and also a melee to poke others' away. You can also use the Plasma weapons to detonate grenades before their timer is over!
- Future Assassin: A stealthy class with silenced weapons, a phaser and flashbangs. Perfect to carry out unexpected assassinations.
- Timeskipper: This class takes advantage on bullettime, given he has chrono bombs which allow him to stop enemies' bullets and get to them so he can finish them off with his Chrono rod. His hull parts are also composed of Scouter and Chrono pieces mostly. His arsenal also counts with Chemical Vials, hand shields and also a Chrono Skipper and Jet Shoes on tier 3.
- Tank: A class rich in defense and ofense, but pretty stationary. He has Defender armor and a shield, and uses automatic machineguns.
Please provide balance feedback if possible! Make sure it's not simply because you're bad/good at a class/playing against a class though! That happens. Also bots aren't too great (ever, not just with this mod), so if you can, try it out with a friend!
Known issues:
- All classes show up as "Metalface" in the shop. This is not a bug from the mod, but simply the game doesn't support this yet. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Thanks and have fun!
