I kinda like what Bungie did with Halo 2's gametype system. They have a bunch of mini-mutators that change around weapons and other settings that you could choose right before you start the game. They have a "Rumble Swords", which is basically an energy sword battle, "Rumble Rockets", a battle with nothing but rocket launchers, a "Phantoms" gametype where everyone has active camo, and so on. They also let players create their own "gametypes. My favorite is Rainbow Six/Counter-Strike, where you only have human weapons, no shields, and no radar.
Of course, that really has nothing to do with the conversation going on here, so I'll shut up now.
At least can CUT have some sort of modified 'arena' mutator where the players can select which CUT weps they wanna play with (This can even extend to the normal UT weps)
id like to see an multiple arena mutator added. just basically a weapon checklist of what to add into the maps. basically cos sometimes its fun to play with only a small selection of weapons, not just one, and not them all either.
theres probably already a mod out there that does that tho.

you mean other than the current chaos arean mut?
AFAIK the CUT arena mut is just like the normal arena mut except with CUT weps, but ill check that out.

Ahhh I think I see now. Yea its like it but allows for the alt ammo types which is something that the normal Arena did not do. However one thing that CUT Arena Mut did NOT do is allow you to play say xbow arena with standard as well as alt ammo types. Now it does. And what I mean by this is all players start out with xbows. And all ammo is replaced with the xbow type, meaning it could be standard, exp, pos, or flame arrows you pick up. All of the multi-ammo weapons now have this option in our CUT Arena Mut. Of course you have to wait till the new version of Chaos comes out to play this way

Ok, I see . Anyways, u think its possible to make a CUT weps mut like the "Onslaught weapons" mut, that even allows you to choose which weps to cycle it with. That'd be cooooooooooooool!!!

Possible but probably not likely as that would require to redo the weapon swaping code and not sure that needs to be done... It might have been nice to allow duel that opition..so the server admin can select which weapons to use as well as that could (and bescause I say could please that does not mean I support/ agree or want it to, just that its easy to do code wise). But thats a topic for another day..
You can do that (and more) with weaponstuff. For example, you could make The ERDW secondary fire replace the primary fire, use the advanced scope (the one that can see through walls) as the secondary fire, make it fire 10 shots a second, and have unlimited ammo. Kewl.

Thankfully Very few servers use the Unbalance mutator you described above
