Gaming options with Killing Floor Server
Killing Floor allows each player to move via 3D environment. Gameplay consists two game types. In these games the player fights waves of zombie-like specimens. And each wave becomes successively more difficult, until it concludes with a battle against “boss” specimen, which is called the Patriarch. Players earn money for each kill, and also earns for surviving to the end of a wave. Meanwhile, the players can visit a trader to buy or sell armor, ammo and additional weapons, like pipe bombs, katanas, etc. between each waves. The Trader's location on the level differs at the end of each wave. It discourages players from camping in one location. Weapons can also be randomly found across the level. It encourages the players to work together. They can trade items by dropping money. Healing is more effective on other players than on oneself, and the team can also strategically weld doors that are shut to provide a temporary barrier from the oncoming crowd while funneling the other creatures from the specific areas.
Players can select one of seven perks at the start of a match and in between rounds too. The perk is similar to the idea of a character class. It provides bonuses towards certain weapon types, movement, armor and other factors. Players can level up by each perk for increasing the benefits which it offers. For example, the “Sharpshooter” perk, provides accuracy benefits when you use scoped rifles. It can be raised in level via completing a number of headshots with specific weapons. Players who die during a wave will drop their current weapon and will re-enter in the game at the start of the next wave, as long as at least one squad member survives. If the whole squad is wiped out, then they will have to restart the game from the first round.
Each game can be configured, and you can alter the difficulty of the various waves and the length. The number of creatures in the enemy waves in the game depends on the number. It increases in numbers if in progress more players join the game. The weakest enemies have some special attack which can inflict significant damage on a player.
