I would prefer a Fly pick up instead of that key one also heres an idea which lots of other games had that would be awesome 4 chaos, a survivor mode! Im sure u all have played games with it but ill explain anyway.... every1 starts normal but the 1st person to get killed turns into a mutant( or mabe an invasion monster:P) then who eva he kills will turn into one and so on so forth till 1 is left. Either the timer runs out and the last guy wins or he gets killed and gets a better score than the rest(like score depending on living time). It could be that non mutants r enemys and still have 2 kill each other and mutants that keep comming back 2 life or they r on the same non mutant team as long as there r mutants otherwise they go back to enemys till there is one. It could have the just melee rule too like u have added to team dm etc.

I love survivor mode:D and i hope u take up my idea:)

We could call it "ChaosZombie"

We could even have it so that monster players can morph into a bigger monster when they frag a player. So you can start out as a krall, and mutate into skarrj, behemoths, etc, even warlords, for killing players.

Course, the problem with this idea is that we'd have to allow players to take on the abilities of the monsters, which would require some pretty fancy coding.

And probably building skeletal meshes and attack/movement animations since the Inv monsters really don't have bones

Or u could go the easy way and make zombie skins.....like when u get a frag the more flesh u lose!LOL untill ur bones......then u can grow skeltion wings too.....(i wanted to make a skeltion with wings as a player skin:/ but i cant) and the u can grow a tail! and then ur wings become strong enough to fly etc...

that would require modelling afaik,so i think the evolution one would be easier?

Dunno im just an idea kinda guy:) if i knew how to do it all i would do it myself heh.... but anyway i think it would be pritty cool:D

Dont really mind weather its invasion monster or somthing completly different.... either way would be awesome;)

Custom models and standard bones don't mix well.

why not use your own DOC monsters? I think the skeleton monster makes up by itself. plus you can make like a zombie elf. LOL! a zombie legolas!

But really. humanoid models as monster. maybe you can add in gag monsters like a toaster. LOL! He ain't serving toast no more!

Heh, perhaps. We are going to use our melee monsters for something, however. You'll just have to wait and see.
