Mannpower

Mannpower is a new gamemode added in the Smissmas 2014 Update. It is a modified variant of Capture the Flag.

• Usage of the new Grappling Hook Action Item.
• 10 Captures to win, instead of 3
• A team's Intelligence must be uncontested before a capture can be made by that team.
• Intelligence is instantly re-captured when collected by a member of its' own team.
• Newly-spawned players are given a short grace period of invulnerability.

Powerups

In Mannpower, the player can collect multiple different Powerups that spawn around the map. Since Mannpower is a beta gamemode, the stats of the Powerups may change through development. More Powerups are planned to be added in future updates. The current in-game Powerups are:

• Strength: Double damage for all weapons. Distance damage fall-off immunity.
• Resistance: Reduces incoming damage by 50%. Immune to critical hit damage multiplier.
• Vampire: All damage dealt is returned as health. 25% damage resistance. Max health increased by 40%.
• Warlock: 50% of damage received is reflected back to the attacker (reflected damage cannot directly cause death). Max health increased by 50%.
• Haste: Double weapon firing and reload rate. Double clip size and max ammo count. Movement speed increased by 30%.
• Regeneration: Ammo, health and metal regenerate. Rate of health regeneration inversely proportional to max health.
• Precision: Greatly reduced bullet spread. Distance damage falloff immunity. Rocket and grenade travel speed increased 250%.
• Agility: Movement speed increased by 50%. Grapple speed increase. Jump height increased by 80%. Instant weapon switch.
• Critical Hit: temporary full crit power for 30 seconds. Respawns in the same place after 60 seconds.
