Title: The game of steal the sheep.
Post by: hitech on June 10, 2015, 01:53:09 PM: Steal The Sheep

The goal of the game is to steal all the enemy's sheep and bring them
back to your own sheep pen. This is accomplished by flying or driving
within 100 feet of an enemy sheep. The sheep are in the sheep pen,
shown as an Icon on the map.

The arena is divided into 2 sides (on this map the dividing line is
shown by a tree line).

In Steal the Sheep no damage is applied with bullets. Instead of
receiving damage, if you are shot you are tagged. If you are on the
friendly side of the tree line you can not be tagged.

If you are on the enemy side without a sheep and you are tagged, you
are then put in "Jail." You will remain in jail until someone from
your own side tags you and frees you. Once you are free, you and your
rescuer must fly back to friendly territory before you can steal
another sheep. Neither of you can be tagged again until you return to
the enemy side.

As more people are put in jail they are lined up 1/4 mile apart on a
line headed to the friendly side.

If anyone from your side is in jail, no sheep can be picked up.
Everyone must be freed before your side can resume collecting sheep.

The game is won when the last sheep is picked up from the enemy's sheep pen.

Seems like a waste of time, It'll be cool for a month then nobody will do it. Also the time used to make this game could've been used to make V3 come faster.

Post by: SunBat on June 13, 2015, 09:07:19 AM: Good idea, HTC. This requires minimal resources on your part to set up and develop and adds variety to the game. You are leveraging what you already have in place to expand the game some.
Title: Re: The game of steal the sheep.
Post by: Volron on June 13, 2015, 11:43:55 AM: It is funny seeing some folks get all pissy about HiTech devoting time into this mini-game. News flash to you guys, in case you were not aware, coding something quite large takes A LOT OF WORK, more so since HTC's team is small. I think one reason it was done was to take a little break from the main project. It is also possible that they are testing something out, to have a rough idea if it would be worth working into the next update or not.

I rather they take a break doing something else, which in this instance turns out to be something we get to mess around with, than to burn out and give us a sub-par release. :aok

Post by: DmonSlyr on June 13, 2015, 12:53:42 PM: I'm glad the sheep are coming back to the game :grin: in a very AH kinda way of stealing the sheep!

I started right after the sheep disapeared. It was always the inside joke!

This will definitely be fun and will also be great for squad practice as well!
