#ROCKET ARENA SPLIT SCREEN UPGRADE#

After a weapon has been used to kill three players, it will upgrade to a more powerful version. The weapons operate similarly to those in single-player mode, though they typically have less ammo. The Holoshield Glove is also available, although technically not classified as a weapon. The possible weapons available for a game can be set in options prior to a match. Players start with the N60 Storm by default, and can obtain other weapons found in crates throughout the map, with some crates only offering ammunition. These are the N60 Storm, Blitz Gun, Gravity Bomb, Minirocket Tube, Lava Gun, Flux Rifle, Morph-o-Ray, and the Mine Glove. Ten weapons are available in multiplayer, based on weapons that appear in Up Your Arsenal, as well as Ratchet & Clank and Going Commando. Nodes can also be enabled in Capture the Flag. They are always present in Siege mode and are crucial in the Attrition Siege variation. Nodes are optional in all maps in which Siege can be played. A rare few also have missile turrets that only attack vehicles. Before a node is captured, it is defended by up to three neutral troopers and three turrets, with a minimum of only two turrets, which players must destroy to then use the bolt crank. Some also grant vehicles or drone bots, which function as synthenoids that can also be placed to defend specific areas. This allows the nodes to be used as a spawn point for players of that team, as well as providing weapons and ammo. If a player dies on his own by falling into the water, or getting killed some other way, they will lose a kill point.Īround most of the maps, multiple strategic nodes can be captured by the team to gain ground. This mode has no nodes or bases, and players will simply respawn at a random point after dying. There are two variations on this mode: a simple Deathmatch which is a free-for-all, and Team Deathmatch in which players are divided into teams and must score points for their team. There are two variations on this mode: in 'Normal', the team must also have possession of their own team's flag in addition to the enemy's flag, while in 'Chaos', it is only required to retrieve the enemy team's flag to score a point.ĭeathmatch is a simple mode in which players win by scoring the maximum number of kills, set in options mode. In Capture the Flag, the teams must obtain an opposing team's flag and return it to their own base, to score a point, and a team wins after reaching a score cap, set in options. Siege is supported on the maps Bakisi Isles, Blackwater City, Hoven Gorge, Korgon Outpost, Metropolis, and Outpost X12. This variation causes capturing nodes to increase the amount of damage, health, and accuracy of the base defenses and all nodes captured by that team. One variation of Siege is 'Attrition Siege'. Nodes are always present in Siege, and provide a strategic benefit to players in terms of providing spawn points as well as unlocking vehicles, which are often crucial in destroying a base' defenses. The blue base is defended by a tall machine that floats around and constantly spawns scout bots, that on their own attack nearby players. The red base is defended by generators that produce wheel-like robots that charge at foes at high speed, but can be intercepted or dodged. The bases are also guarded by two missile turrets, two troopers, and defences unique to each base. This is done by destroying the two gatling turrets defending their base, teleporting inside, and destroying the power core. In Siege, the primary objective is to destroy the opposing team's base. When starting a match, players choose to either join a quick existing match or set up a lobby for their own match in which they could determine the options for a match, including the game mode (and any variations), the map, and which weapons or vehicles were allowed.
