Freon - balance, bio-camping, classic maps - others (discuss)

Soma:
What about teamdamage shouldn't be removed ? I really hate when I hit my teammate I lose hp and today I died because one of my team walked into my shot that doesn't happen on warfare it only happens on freon

Piglet:
Stop spamming them. Curse them (politely if possible) when they do it!

RFF is part of Freon. It's a team game. If you shoot teammates or they jump in front of you...that's what you get.

The alternative means that you're free to spam anything anywhere at any time with no adverse consequences.

nyrde:
Balancer + Challenge mode - game breaker combo
Disable challenge mode completely / AGREE
Just makes the balancing unpredictable and harder if there are multiple parameters doing it

Bots:
remove after when 12+ players / AGREE
Bots are annoying to play against because they move unnaturally so you always have adjust. And coming around a corner in contact with "flakbot" means instant death.

Bio-camping:
Force the biocamper to shoot the person being thawed, not shoot at the frozen body and benefit. /AGREE
- Only disable spawn protection for more than 3 teammates nearby. /AGREE
- Disable splash damage for frozen pawns. (make the frozen bodies react like objects, instead of players) /AGREE
The annoying thing about bio camp for me is, that even thou, the bio shot comes from far away and you react by trying to dodge away, you still die or loose most of your health because the damage range is so huge. So one option could only be limit the damage range. But I would still be open to try the suggested changes.

This is probably a silly idea, but what if enemy bio thaws the players a little... like 25% so there is a kinda risk reward aspect to the bio camping... I dont know... could be interesting. I dont' know how hard it would be to implement thou  :)

Piglet:
I did turn off challenge mode yesterday, and people have not yet noticed. I suspect it won't work well. Let's see.

Bots...possible. The code in this area is rather horrid. I try to touch it as little as possible!

Thawing enemies with Bio?  You know, that does sound interesting....

Jozz:
We noticed - I gave Lakana a HS when it was 9-4 and he just kept coming at me! It might seem that challenge mode wouldn't be needed when the balancer works so well, but apparently it's still useful. IMO apart from a few exceptions, the current setup works well and is very fair.
Bio thawing would be great, and a big surprise for those pesky campers!
