Snipers VS Knifers

Description
A fun 16V16 PVP mode with a twist: Both team has a sniper squad and a knife squad for Firefight or Occupy modes. Great for casual PVP players.

The Gamemode
Both team will have two squads, one squad can get access to Mosin Nagant or M40A1, the other squad will get knife only.

Major Differences
  • For snipers, run, jump and prone won't cancel reload animation, so you have to find a safe place to reload. Increased ammo to 60, decreased clip to 3. Also, your gadgets are limited to only laser sight and bipod.
  • Both snipers and knife can be fired or slashed in air, also you're now able to scope in the air too.
  • Knife is buffed to deal a lot of damage that even you aimed at feet you can still kill enemies.

Only tested with Firefight or Occupy! Should be working on game modes without destroying weapon caches.

How to Use This Mod
For Players:
Subscribe to this mod, open console, enter in "mp_theater_override bvk_firefight" to enable the theater, and then type
"map <map names> <game mode>" to start a game.
For extra tip, you can use "ins_bot_quota <number>" to add bots for both team, the number should be bots per team,
so 16 would make the game full.
For Server OP:
  • Add "-workshop" to your server batch to enable Steam Workshop support.
  • Creat a file named "subscribed_file_ids.txt" in "insurgency" folder, edit it to 1290138100, which is this mod's number on Workshop.
  • Edit game mode's cfg file, such as for Firefight it would be "default_server_firefight.cfg", add "mp_theater_override bvk_firefight" in a new line and save.
  • Start the server, you should notice that srcds is downloading this mod.

Huge thanks to Rushin' Russian who created Army of Five, a great coop mod for Insurgency. He shared his experience of creating theaters and helped me to solve some problems when I was creating it. Although my theaters are still in a mess but well, it's really fun and it works!

Sounds completely ridiculous, but in a good way.

SHOUBI°♫, you can just add that map to your mapcycle txt file to play this game mode on your server.

TheUnknownMachine, for CQB knife is definitely OP but on some flat maps such as Panj, sniper would get more advantages. Also on night maps, knifers tend to move fast thus would be easier to be detected by snipers.

Knife is so OP

"mp_theater_override" "bvk_firefight" into server_occupy.cfg == working!
server_noice_arena_alpha6.cfg == not working!
(seems there is no way to toggle on/off per maps, only per gamemode so far sadly)
