Team 4 Tress

[jibba jabba]

today, a friend and i came up with what i think is a great mod idea. L4D, except at the beginning, you choose from one of the TF2 classes. It would be the exact same thing as L4D, except you'd play as the Heavy, the Pyro, the Scout, etc. and have each class's respective weapon and abilities. Instead of finding 2 tier weapons, you'd find each class's unlockable items.

anyone like?

[binge]

dont like, sry

Dude, this "mod" (if you can call it that) has been suggested on here probably like 4,941 times already.

AND

If its just going to be basically changing the skins of the characters and the weapons they use, its not really a mod is it? I dont see the point in that.

If you want L4D, play L4D... If you want to TF2, play TF2.

what would you call it?

[jibba jabba]

you cant say it wouldn't be fun to slay infected with TF2 weapons, though

[Stupoider]

If you want L4D, play L4D... If you want to TF2, play TF2.

What's wrong with wanting to play both at the same time?

[jibba jabba]

i love them both

Nothing, get 2 PC's then... your teams might get a lil pissed off though when you keep going afk... =P jk

I tried that once, and remapped all of the buttons for one hand use. Only problem is, I could not watch two screens at once

It's a cool idea but the classes simply don't fit in TF2. Spy, Sniper, Medic - probably even Pyro, Heavy, Demoman and Soldier unless their ammo was upped significantly - would all be next to useless. How would the Heavy avoid a Tank eh? Really the only usefull classes would be Scout and Engineer. Scout could also run out of ammo of course but he's damn fast he could outrun the zombies. Engineer has more than enough Shotgun shells and the ability to build sentries.

Like I said, it's a cool idea but you'd have the change the classes so much that it wouldn't really be TF2 classes any more and since having the TF2 classes in the zombie apocalypse is the whole idea you can see how it kind of just doesn't work.

[Nemesis_vs_Leon]

old idea is old.


Also, all source games should have always been mixable but half life 2's "total conversion only" nature means you can't just add stuff on.

This is why I like unreal tournament, you can add on this sort of thing and mix it with w/e else you have added on as well.

QUICK! SOMEONE MAKE A MUTATOR SYSTEM FOR L4D IN SOURCEMOD!

this is where respawning comes in. Instead of 3 knock-downs you have 3 lives. Or even better, infinite lives and infinite ammo so the game is about fun not competition.

Actually, you could make the tf2 class' stuff in sourcemod... even better make it a mutator to combine with other mods... OMG SOMEONE MAKE THE MUTATOR SYSTEM!!!

Also, medics healing each other ftw, you could uber every rush 2 medics uber the other 2 who saw the zombies to death.

[Stupoider]

Oh wow, wouldn't it be awesome? L4D with sentries?

[BlackCat]

idk if this is an old pic or what but it fits this thread... lol

This what you're talking about? =P

[Fearless]

Not a bad idea. If it is balanced then it could be fun.

[Stuffinator]

Well I think making a TF2 mod would be easier!
If you want L4D, play L4D... If you want to TF2, play TF2.
Damn straight!

[Warhawk]

he could outrun the zombies
I dont think so

[Shadow]

I wouldnt see the point to picking any character other than a scout. Double jump, super fast, and basically no point in using any ammo, just bonk.

PIC
that pic is epic..

This what you're talking about? =P

I think he's talking about the other way around... the TF2 models would replace Bill, Louis, Francis, Zoey... so you would be, for example, the Demoman (with Demo weapons) running around No Mercy taking out the zombies
