No PVP in Soccer

Bitfighter Idea!
I think that there should be an option in the level editor when creating a soccer level to enable pvp/taking damage or not.
This would be really cool because it would be like real soccer, plus you would focus on using different weapons, modules, and strategies to win the game without killing other players.
What do you guys think? I think it would be a cool touch to the game.

Not sure zapping enemy ships so you are able to push the ball in part of the soccer strategy
I feel this would limit the nubmer of loadouts you could use to a couple like phaser boucner and triple and ignore other weapons.....
This also may make other loadouts useless......

I think it's an idea worth experimenting with.

I jsut feel it would make socerr less fast frenetic and fun and using strong weapons/loadouts would be preety much useless....

No I just feel that it would Break soccer as taking the time to shoot down several ships to gain a advantage is a large part of soccer and it would make everyone want to use the same load-out / weapons heal cloak armor would become useless and power weapons like burst and seeker would be useless as well.

Another concern I have is it would make some game items like asteroids and turrets useless as well Im just concerned it may unbalance the game.

"No PvP" does not mean that asteroids and turrets wouldn't work either. Those aren't other players. That would be PvE not PvP.

It still would eliminaet about 80% of the modules and and loadouts which is a concern for me.
However since it is Switchable I guess it would be ok as long as it doesn't make non pvp get removed.

FYI, you can create a simple levelgen that just sets everyone's health to full each tick and presto! No players die during soccer:
- Code:
---
--- nodeath.levelgen
---
--- Not recommended on *any* game mode
---
--- author: raptor
---
function onTick(timeDelta)
players = game:getPlayers()
for key,value in pairs(players) do
local ship = value:getShip()
if(ship ~= nil) then
ship:setHealth(1)
end
end
end
function main()
bf:subscribe(Event.Tick)
game = bf:getGameInfo()
end

The script raptor posted is not a 100% solution, but it would let you see if the idea has any merits.
