[MODE] CONTRA Mode (Replace Buckshot)

[tsukiyomaru0]

While casually thinking of stuff to do, I ended up playing the good and old Contra. Then, it came to me: "Why not make those weapons? Why not make this a mode?". It is not that easy, plus Buckshot is supposed to be a fast-paced mode, isn't it? Then, I bring you:
CONTRA MODE

This mode Features: FIVE Original Contra Weapons, spawning item carriers, Rapid Fire Item, Barrier Item.
Explanation on Weapons and Items:
Assault Rifle: You start with this one. A weak rifle with rapidfire.
{M}achine Gun: A stronger version of the Assault Rifle.
{S}pread Gun: The infamous 5-shot spreader from Contra. Just like in Contra, the ultimate weapon... Or not?
{F}lame Shot: Fires a spiralling fireball that covers a wide area, but moves somewhat slower.
{L}aser Gun: A piercing beam of energy. Can kill an unmoving target, but isn't much fast.
{R}apid Fire: Increases the speed at which your shoot travels. Stackable up to five.
{B}arrier: Gives you invulnerability for 20 seconds (Like in Contra), but is a rare drop. Uses Doom's traditional Invulnerability effect, because Translations wouldn't work well in team modes.

To get items: 10 seconds after spawning/respawning, you'll be alerted that supplies are on the way. Look for a strange portal and shoot the carriers that come out of it. They will then drop an item, that will stay there until picked.However, be fast: people can and will steal the items from YOUR carrier too.

Next Contra mode will be Super C, so stay tuned at the poll.

The Homing Missiles were awesome, but they did craptasic damage. Just throwing ideas out on the table.

You mean the Super Contra 3/Contra Spirits/Contra 3 weapons, eh? Don't worry, I'll eventually get to it.

Programmed changes for Super C/Contra 2 weapons and items:
+ Everyone will start off with a Support Call, which will open the portal to bring supplies
- The suppplies won't spawn after 10 seconds from player spawning/respawning.
+ Fire Rate will be too affected by the item Rapid Fire
+ Laser Gun will have the new beam code I baked.
? Maybe the Laser Chainsaw "trick" will be put down due to this.
- Dropped Weapons & Items will disappear after 20 seconds (they will start blinking at 15 seconds)
+ Players will drop items/weapons when they die (If they were carrying 5 Rapid Fire, they will drop five rapid fire items and their weapon)
+ SMART BOMBS! (will be as rare as Barriers, but w/e)
