UPDATE 8/8/14 : Servers Online!
-VEX- SkillBoost Laser [BETA] - maniaplanet://#join=vexmelee@SMStorm
SSM. SkillBoost 1 - maniaplanet://#join=eliteal3@SMStorm
SSM. SkillBoost 2 - maniaplanet://#join=eliteal4@SMStorm

UPDATE 5/8/14 :
Almost everything is working, but now & then a bug occurs. We also arent 100% happy with the design. I think we will be ready in a few days. Then we can play together and balance out the gameplay to get maximum fun.

As you can see, the mode is almost ready :)


SkillBoost
12 Player Free For All Laser Only
Eliminating players with the laser will get you awards/boosts/powerups. Which awards you will get, is up to you. Before the maps starts you get to choose yours. Pressing F3 while playing will let you choose new awards when you die before you respawn. A map lasts 7.5minutes.

Award progression:

Award notification:

Award selection menu

AWARDS you can select 1of each.
+3
- Double or Nothing: Getting a double kill automatically gives you all your selected awards
- FastReload 1: Your laser now reloads 10% faster
- Camouflage: Removes glow around your character

+5
- Hardline: Win your next awards faster (+7 / +10)
- Double Damage: For 20seconds all kills count as double
- Gambler: Get a random award (can be a shitty award or something awesome)

+8
- Teleport: You can now teleport every 10 seconds (custom action/move)
- Extra Armor 1: You get one extra armor
- FastReload 2: Your laser now reloads 20% faster
- Immortality: For 15seconds you cant be killed.

+12
- Extra Armor 2: You get 2 extra armors
- Fast Reload 3: Your laser now reloads 35% faster
- Wallhack: You get visual markers indicating enemies position that refresh every 2seconds

+20
- Godlike: You unlock ALL awards above.

+35
- M.O.A.B.: A giant explosion kills all players and the kills are added to your score. You win the match.
M.O.A.B.= Mother Of All Bombs.

- Kamemahemaa: You get a beam-canon & Immortality. Blast your way to victory.
- Homing Missiles



OTHER STUFF
No faster reload on hit. Players with the same - or no - award(s) are equal.



DEATHSTREAKS
You are failing so hard and you keep dieing, that the game will help you. You get rewarded when you respawn. You keep this deathstreak until you finally made a kill.

-3
Safety First: Longer spawn protection
-4
Revenge: The player that killed you cant kill you now
-5
Free Armor: Spawn with an extra armor



PLANETS
Players can donate planets in order to unlock their awards faster. We dont want to make it "pay2win" so we are limiting this to 3x / day. The donated planets ( 'The Jackpot') will be returned to the winner of the map. If no planets were spent, then nobody will receive planets.

TO DO LIST
- 4 extra awards so the menu will be full ^^
- Find the right balance of all awards ( good players think its easy, others think its impossible .. :s )
- Selection Menu redesign
- Global sounds ( Godlike & Extermination ) --> You know when a player is Godlike/Exterminating
- Enable pinging on godlike/ext players ( teamwork )
LATER:
- Show correct information when spectating
- Rocket version


IDEAS
- Custom moves/weapons

------------------------------------------

So thats the idea,
If you guys know any other cool awards, deathstreaks, moves or anything else, then please let us know ;)
This mode is currently already being coded by awesome "Fleo" himself.

More news soon :)

At the moment, we're finishing the code handling the awards (almost done, just some bugs to be removed) and the UI (the awards selection board is done and working, I'm now doing the awards progress bar).

We haven't added any custom file yet, so you can play it in Storm when I'm working on it. I may restart the game quite often so it is not the best conditions to play this mode. However if you really want to test it, do not hesitate to join as a spectator to ask the password, I'll be happy to give it to you :thx:

As Dreammy said, we'd really like to add more awards, so try to be creative and suggest your ideas! :D
