wow, you have been working HARD! but with the random swap what is the chance that someone could be teled into a invisible wall? Is this a worrying factor or have you eliminated it?
Good work btw!

The "random" location he lists is actually a random spawn points (that you can normally spawn at in say.. FFA)
Not a chance of them landing in the middle of the air or out of map.

C4 damage is focused on a smaller range, but more deadly.

Guys give us 15 mins or so to get stuff sorted, then will will chuck it up on ATS for some testing 
Shotguns were nerfed a while back due to OP, but they are still pretty deadly, just not insta kill unless super accurate.
I'm pretty sure everyone is going to love the new squads too.

I would have done the others, but I couldn't find download links / right now they don't support it and I have to override their settings.

I guess you will have to try other guns.
The swapping still functions how it was originally intended too, without everyone getting swapped into lame and glitchy spots. I do not believe many people on the receiving end of such low tactics had much fun.
"Yay, I got swapped onto the top of the map on an invisible platform, I will just sit here and wait to die. THIS IS SO FUN!"
"Yay, I'm in a cage, how funny is that." 10 minutes later "This guy is the best, he keeps swapping me into a cage, every round, AWESOME"

Swapping promoted glitching. Glitching is bad, just like drugs and hacks.

Well it was overpowered. Yes it was funny watching them up there but there was also a lot of griefing. Teleing people out of maps, in cages, etc... The way it is now is infinitely more balanced and playable I think. I love it personally. It's also great for reducing MBC in the area (Marine Body Count). That way you can tele one guy out, and only have 1 to deal with instead of the other one turning around and wacking ya.

After the second time it got annoying as hell. There's practically no skill in putting someone on a high roof or a pole.
And now teleport is used THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE USED. To get into marine lines quieter, quicker! Not to drop people.
