ZF: Perks or No Perks?

There was a big update to the ZF mod a couple days ago that adds perks for Zombies and Survivors.
You can read about them here http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=131282

The "Vanilla" version without perks is also going to be maintained, so do which version do we want to run?

This sounds like a great idea.

But we would definitely have to disable quite a few of the perks.

IMO, these ones:

Sadistic: because then people would just let their partner die on purpose.
Traitor: griefing much?

Combustible: This is the most stupid perk I have ever heard of.
Sick: talk about sandman all over again.
Swarming: IMO, this would just make everyone just rush as spy.

just my 2 cents

Code: Select all

sm_zf_perk_disable Sadistic
sm_zf_perk_disable Traitor
sm_zf_perk_disable Combustible
sm_zf_perk_disable Sick
sm_zf_perk_disable Swarming

Some of the perks sound nice, but we would have to choose carefully which one's we include; there's already enough raging on the server as is. Its not possible to make only some perks available on some maps is it? Say for example, make the more useful perks available to the team that usually loses on the harder maps or ones that aren't so evenly balanced.

Also, does the selfless perk remind anyone else of the CoD World at War perk where you drop a grenade when you die?

I like it simple. I go in I have one job. I don't want to mess with picking perks. If I want to use perks I'll play MW2.

like desseler said before would we have the option to get rid of some of the perks because lets face it when people have the option to be assholes on the internet there going to be.

Also i think that the founders, globals, managers, community team, and the people who admin it should test it out on the ATG server before we go and open it

I feel as though "Traitor" must be removed. It will encourage trolling, and has no benefit for the humans.
