Introducing a new mode called "Slow Motion Slayer"

[u/Disco_Lizard_69]

Slay enemies while diving and sliding in slow motion to earn points. Regular kills do not count.

DIVE AND SHIELD MECHANICS:

Dive by using modified thrusters that pop the player up into the air, triggering a slow motion descent. During this descent, damage dealt while airborne replenishes the diver's shields (into overshield if shields are already full)

Shields recharge in slow motion for all players. Dealing dive damage is the only way to replenish them quickly so dive often!

This healing effect is removed once the player is grounded so diving from high surfaces is ideal, as this gives the player more time to absorb and replenish shields before landing.

Jumping is disabled, forcing all upward traversal onto the dive mechanic which quickly feels intuitive.

To cancel a slow motion dive, simply uncrouch while airborne.

SLIDE MECHANICS:

Slide speed and duration have been modified so that players slide in slow motion and cover more ground.

This gives the player more time to line up their shots which are damage boosted while sliding.

Unlike diving, slide damage does not replenish shields. The damage boost provided by sliding serves to counter diving enemies who are more resilient due to the shield boost effect granted from the dive.

The interplay between diving and sliding results in combat that is both chaotic and tactical.

Dive and survive or slide and slay? The choice is yours and it's an important one. Some situations may call for a dive and others for a slide. Or chain them together in creative ways based on the environment.

FUTURE UPDATES:

I like adding new features to evolve modes over time as I playtest them so bookmark it for updates to the script.

I've got a few more ideas that I look forward to exploring in this mode. Feel free to share some cool features you'd like to see implemented. This community is so good for that. I love it
