Just a quick question about mods in runs. is it allowed to have a mod that, say, just changing audio sounds of guns or maybe some visuals? if the mod does not mess with the game mechanics or anything like that is it allowed? or are we just gonna keep it as a no?
I just thought it would be neat to change the sounds of some of the guns just for lols
As cool and funny as it would be, I would say no, but i'm not a mod :p. It just seems like it could be a slippery slope that could be abused by other people not doing it for the lolz.
I agree with Wryvin. It's a lot easier to enforce vanilla only than to try to decide what mods are okay or not.
It's also worth noting that using mods (in general, I don't know about this game specifically) can have some weird side effects that could potentially give you an unfair advantage. It's unlikely that anyone would really be able to capitalize on that, but it's certainly not impossible.
No mods allowed is a safe bet I would say too. I'll be honest, my knowledge of mods for this game is close to none.
Adding mods makes it harder to verify runs, I would also need to be more knowledgeable about them. The verification process would be more painful because it would probably be harder to identify "that mod" that is advantageous hidden through all of the other mods.
I really do want to trust all you guys that are submitting runs to this leaderboards, but there always a possibility that someone tries to abuse the system and submit a unfair time just to be a jerk.
