Topic: [FYI] Please note: "RUN" is not "RACE"

I always see people talking about a run-map by using the words "race" and "racer" or whatever they say. It hurts in my heart!

Run != Race


RACE

The race_mod from 0.3.x, huh? Actually, it's not a mod. It's just the map and the serverconfiguration. (Nothing is modded)

A race map is a special map, made for race, played just with CTF and sv_scorelimit 1. (Touching the flagg earns 1 point)
One of the teams (red or blue) is spawning just in a little box and the other team is the racerteam, because only one flagg can be reached.

It depends on the map which team is playing.

Red team = racer team (Blue team = Not playing/Spawned in the box)
=> Capture the blue flagg to win. (Red flag can't be captured and you can't see it. [But there's one])

Blue Team = racer team (Red team = Not playing/Spawned in the box)
=> Capture the red flagg to win. (Blue flag can't be captured and you can't see it. [But there's one])

The maps made for race have a small file-size and they are very simply made. It's because map-rotation is activated and because players can watch out better and react faster when there aren't many details.

RUN

The run gamemode has been released by rajh after the release of 0.4.0 .
You can choose any team you want and tee's can't damage each other, because Rajh disabled collision and he made tee's hp infinity.
It's actually not a RACE, because the main thing for many players isn't the time. They want to reach the goal at least. You need skill if you want to establish records for race-maps.

Runmaps are much harder than racemaps and because of that Rajh implented a teleport-feature which makes the game more user-friendly for beginners.

I miss the old race-players.

Re: [FYI] Please note: "RUN" is not "RACE"

I'd like to mention while this is up that /anti-clan recently set up a 24/7 race server hosting the old race_mod maps, and if intrest gets big, we might host another one aswell. Just search for "anti-clan" and you'll find it.

Re: [FYI] Please note: "RUN" is not "RACE"

Well hopefully we can contact Rajh and he can make the racemod with the gametype "RUN" on its next version. I do love the old races :'(

Also id like to say that i feel exactly the same way and it really annoys me!
Lets change the (tee)world!

Bye.

Capturing the flag earns 100 points for the team, touching the flag ears 1 point. You did this mistake in the first post. (Just to mention tongue)
