I think it would be cool to have a split loadout/evolution loadout for asymmetrical teams, like in the gametype.

Right, like one team can pick from one set of weapons, and the other team could pick from another set of weapons.

I think assymetry is not the right word, more of unbalanced or uneven.
But still got the point, and yeah that's would be fun to have.

Depending on which weapons you put where, it doesn't have to be unbalanced or uneven.

Well yeah, i told these words as an example, because you can't say asymmetric loadout, its just nonsense.

No, it's not. Are you sure you know what that word means?

ooh I got it !

Though I don't see how you can seperate weapons for both teams without having unballanced gameplay ?
You're thinking to Counter-Strike, right ?

Exept for few weapons that are nearly the same (i.e. the staves) the gameplay would be quite unballanced.
But true, switching weapons while you're still alive can be cheating.

BW is completely unbalanced to begin with. All you would have to worry about is making sure you don't put all the overpowered weapons on one side (AM67, Lightning gun, etc.) and the weak weapons (XK2, M806, etc.) on the other.

The players themselves matter too. Giving the n00bs overpower and the pros underpower would probably result in the victory of the pros, especially after the Mk9's big change in v2.1

Perhaps. But what happens when the two teams are equally skilled?

Well, rather than limit it you can simply establish a rule (players would have to respect it on their own)
Where the pros have the weak weapons and the other can take the strong one !

It's a first (no change) solution for poeple playing on servers

Perhaps. But what happens when the two teams are equally skilled?

The honor system really doesn't work for the most part. I myself avoid using weapons I consider overpowered*, but there's nothing I can do to prevent others from abusing the really lame crap (FP9 spam, dual-AM67, those goddamned staves, etc.).


*The Hedsteem vCTF server is the exception. Way too chaotic and vehicle-heavy to even think about your weapon selection there.

FP7s are the incendiary grenades. The FP9s are the tripmines/remote explosives. By spamming them, I'm referring to the practice of tossing and detonating them in close quarters, which guarantees an instant kill and gets old really fast. You can do the same with the Pineapple, but effective Pineapple spam takes a bit more skill and timing, so I can accept it.
