World of Padman: Difference between revisions

This game has 3 sections of HUDs. They include a left HUD, a middle HUD, and a right HUD, which is only used in certain game modes. There are 10 different HUD designs. These include, in order, black, red, blue, green, chrome, whitemetal, rust, flower, wood, and airforce. The left part of the HUD, which is currently shown to the left of this section, shows your selected weapon and the ammo for it. The scores of the teams are also shown here, so you can see see which team is currently leading. The yellow point containing the X shows which team is yours. The middle part of the HUD is the most important. It shows your health and shield status. The left part (red) is for health, and when completely filled up, you have 100% health. You can have more than 100% health with revival or after respawn, and having part of the bar in a darker red shows this. The blue side (shield) on the right works in the same way. If you have more than 100% shield, a part of the bar is dark blue. The right part of the HUD is special for certain game types. It is explained under the multiplayer modes section of the game type that uses that particular HUD.<br />

Besides widespread gametypes like [[Tournament]], [[Deathmatch (gaming)|Free For All]], and [[Deathmatch (gaming)|Team Deathmatch]], WoP features three uncommon gametypes: Spray Your Color, Last Pad Standing and Big Balloon. In the mod for [[Quake 3 Arena]] unlike the current standalone version, World of Padman also offered [[Capture the Flag]] for the PadCrash map.

:This mode can be played as either free for all or a team vs team game. This mode is unique to World of Padman. The goal is to spray a logo on the walls in the sprayroom. When playing SyC (Spray Your Color) you must first frag (kill) an opponent and collect their cartridges. If you die all your cartridges are GONE and they now belong to the person that picks them up. You can NOT pick up your own cartridge. You must be carrying at least one cartridge other than your own at the time of entering the portal. Once in the portal simply spray on the wall that matches your team, or if in free for all SyC, on whichever wall you prefer. You or your team will receive five points per cartridge and if in FFA you kill yourself you will lose 1 point each time. The right HUD for Spray Your Color has circles on it that are colored red if you have a cartridge and blue if you do not. When you pick up a cartridge or spray a cartridge these will change colors respectively. You can carry eight cartridges at a time.  

'''Scoring:''' Each cartridge gives five points either to you or your team depending on the mode of play. If you spray five logos without leaving the room you get five bonus points. If you spray eight logos (the maximum) without leaving the room you will receive ten bonus points.

[[Image:BigBalloon.jpg|thumb|Blue Balloon|left]]

:This is a team game related to "Domination" from Unreal Tournament. In each map there are three boxes, often referred to as balloons. The balloons start as neutral when the game begins. As soon as you [[Camping (computer gaming)|camp]] at a box, a balloon that is your team's color will float up and each player in the game will be notified via the right hud and an in-game message. It will be either blue or red depending on what team you are on. If the balloon is fully filled your team will receive points. If the opponent can [[Camping (computer gaming)|camp]] at the balloon for more than 3 seconds then your balloon will be destroyed and they may be able to replace it with that team's balloon by [[Camping (computer gaming)|camping]] at it for a short amount of time. In that case the other team will get points for that balloon instead of the team previously owning that balloon. Shown to the right is the version of the right HUD for the big balloon mode of gameplay. Each balloon icon shows that what team captured which of the three balloons and the meter to the left of the balloon icons shows progress of inflating/deflating a balloon.  

'''Scoring:''' For each balloon your team captures you receive 1 point every 2 seconds. If your team has all three balloons the amount of points you receive are doubled.  Partially filled balloons will NOT score points for either team despite how close they may be to being filled to their maximum potential. When time runs out the game is over and the team with the most points at that point in time will be the winner.

:This is a last man standing mode. It is free for all. Each player starts out with a certain amount of lives and will be forced to be a spectator when they run out of lives. At the end of the game there will be only one player left. That player is the winner. Also this mode shows user's names above their heads to prevent [[Camping (computer gaming)|camping]] and coming out when there is only one person left. Unlike Spray Your Color and Big Balloon this mode does not have a right HUD, similar to the standard gametypes. The scores window shows how many lives are left for each player instead of just scores.
