more alternate game modes?

[Die4Ever]

Horde mode? could maybe even let the player place turrets, buy bots? randomly placed explosive/gas barrels/crates? randomly spawn LAMs and gas grenades and stuff for the player to find?

"Stick to the Prod" mode, gotta make use of those fire extinguishers! new module DXRRestrictedWeapons with a config for a whitelist of weapon classes? would have to use a timer until I get the new compiler working

"Stick to the Prod+" could also allow some other weapons like gas grenades, emp grenades? Maybe baton? Crossbow with only tranq darts?

"Don't Give Me The GEP Gun" would ban the GEP gun

"Ninja" mode - only weapons allowed are the sword and throwing knives, probably need to buff throwing knives or make the low tech skill help them more in range and projectile speed

something like Dead Rising or Zombies Ate My Neighbors?

built-in bingo?

Paul Is Missing? like Mario Is Missing?

New Game+ - after the credits can go back to the first level, maybe show a menu for some settings
keep your augs and your skills
keep or lose your skill points?
keep (some of?) your items
lose your nanokeys, notes, goals
new seed or same seed?
increase difficulty?
keep track of how many times you've looped

old "Kill Bob Page mode" ideas: #37

Deus Ex Acid - like Metal Gear Acid... would be a ton of work lol, JC would probably be a subclass of ScriptedPawn that you issue orders to (maybe a subclass of Paul or Walt)

Deus Ex Kart Racer - also a ton of work, but worth it for the memes?

Deus Ex 99 - #238 (comment) (although we really don't need Archipelago for this)

we don't really have enough players for Deus Ex 99, but maybe if there was only 1 match per day, with a countdown, then you could get some games of a few people

[Die4Ever]

Deus Ex Snap: start with cloak and radar transparency, subclass of binoculars?

[Die4Ever]

Typing of the Deus Ex? Slomo the game while in combat state

Might need customizations in player class to disable shooting

[Die4Ever]

Hardcore WaltonWare - increased health and reduced combat difficulty like Serious Sam mode, 0% medkits, 0% medbots, no heal at the start of new loops, maybe disallow saving

secret halloween stuff:

• some kind of VtMB reference/mode for Halloween?
• halloween candy?
• Silent Hill fog?
• SOMETHING FROM THE 7TH GUEST
• Resident evil mode
  • a Mr X with new footstep sounds?
  • support for hat actors 5f93d48
  • fixed camera angles
  • fixed save points? limited saves? usb sticks for computers?
  • Resident Evil dobermans, faster movement speed, more damage, maybe can get up after the death animation?
  • if you get bitten then you need to find ambrosia in a couple minutes or you die? Ambrosia in each map, can only carry 1, gets taken away each map change?
  • can give enemies the flesh texture from gibs?
• Toccata & fugue piano song https://youtu.be/_FXoyr_FyFw?si=VfpvOC_gGi4fQll4
• Zombies Ate My Neighbors piano song?
• PUMPKIN HILL PIANO
• SKELETONS IN MY CLOSET PIANO
• This Is Halloween https://youtu.be/vZrIqkXfa6A?t=22 or https://youtu.be/PptzhRRbUC0?t=25
• Castlevania mode, 3rd person, with whip physics, bTrailerPrePivot? holy bible, other weapons? Maybe not feasible
• Zombies mode? Serious Sam mode, enemies have bite weapon instead of guns, enemies are faster? Enemies respawn
• jack o lanterns, black cats, bats/ravens/crows
• spider webs
• costumes? if we have time?

Glass Cannon - The player does increased damage but any damage done to them (regardless of body part?) kills the player

Either remove radiation from the Paris, and probably Vandenberg, rooms or start the player with maxed environmental resistance.

You Against the World: Everyone you don't absolutely need to talk to is both mortal and hostile

[MQDuck]

Rise of the Machines: Every enemy is replaced by a bot

Maybe with free Radar Transparency and Spy Drone. Maybe also with increased energy.
