POWER UPS

[mikke121minecraft]

Hi mikke121(minecraft) here,


My idea is that you have to dig for example a gold block etc. and you get a random power up like
1. 10 seconds invincibility
2. 200 points
3. every player except you is frozen (and can get killed)
4. you get 30 points for everyone you kill for the rest of the round
5. all items are half price (except metal)

please post thoughts and ideas on this topic thanks!

What about one big lava flood that kills everyone except you?

Respectfully speaking, there are better ideas that can come around for powerups. They're a nice idea, and I kind of want an objective/item in some maps because they have various areas of interest (mostly speaking about a new map).

However at the same time it may boil down to the Headless Horsemann Horseman's gift in TF2 maps, where presents randomly appear. Maybe they can contain 2 pistols, 1 mortar, 15 points, kill you, /shrug.

1. Nope, it turns the server from a war server into a "Find the powerup server!"
2. Nope. Points should come from kills.
3. Nope. No, just no.
4. Nope. They already nerfed the way to gain points, and you want to add more?
5. Nope. How do you half-price a pistol, anyways.

may i ask why you marked this dumb?

Because it has been suggested before.
And everyone will try to find the block instead of playing.
TNT Wars is about a war, not about treasuring.
You could have known that, mostly by reading other suggestions, hence why I marked it dumb.

Mkay, a few problems with this.
First off, if you get 100 points for winning the round, why would you get 200 for finding a random block?As well, how long do they remain frozen? And if they're frozen, why are you invincible? ALso, I have no idea how many kills you have to get in a row, to get 30 points a kill, but im fairly certain that it's only happened a few times. How would that effect killstreaks, anyways? And are they still frozen once they die? Also, how long do they remain half price? Forever?

I may change my mind about this if you could please answer those questions.

I am not saying it is the worst, idea, or even a dumb idea.
Your suggestions are just rather dumb, if you know what I mean?
If there is something in the map, that COULD be found, just not those things you suggested!
Think about it a little better.
But still, it is not about treasuring.

no it is not all of them it is one of the above

This would be REALLY unfair on newcomers.
Think about it: newcomer comes online and joins a team. Then halfway through he is 'randomly' frozen and killed. That would cause quite a few problems

as i said the power up system could be different and the power ups could be different
