Custom Weapon Sets for Timesplitters: Future Perfect

Timesplitters 2 and Timesplitters Future Perfect are now both only able to played online through LAN tunneling programs like XLink Kai.

TS2 never was online. TS:FP had online, but its online servers were taken down. TS2 and TS:FP both have LAN modes, so they can be played online with LAN tunneling programs like Xlink Kai.

Custom Weapon Sets for Timesplitters: Future Perfect

Post by lazyhoboguy »

Thought I would start a thread where people can list custom weapon sets they have created for Timesplitters: Future Perfect's multiplayer mode.

So list some cool weapon sets you have created and tells us which maps you think they work best on.

My custom weapon sets (I made them to use for Xlink Kai matches):

Custom 1 (shotgun)

1 shotgun
2 tactical 12-gauge
3 dispersion gun
4 flare gun (x2)
5 grenades
6 baseball bat

This is a shotgun focused weapon set, so find it works best on the Chinese map or Mexican Mission.

Custom 2 (sniping)

1 vintage rifle
2 snipe rifle
3 scifi sniper
4 flare gun (x2)
5 plasma grenades
6 flamethrower

Basically only good for Siberia, since that is a sniping map. Or this will work on sniping maps you have created in the mapmaker.

Custom 3 (double flare gun)

1 flare gun (x2)
2 soviet rifle
3 plasma grenades
4 SBP500
5 k-smg (x2)
6 machine gun (x2)

It is similar to the Temple level's recommended weapon set. But I didnt like that set's inclusion of the heatseaking rockets and ghost gun, so I altered it a bit. So, I usually use this weapon set on the Temple level.

Custom 4 (machine guns)

1 machine gun
2 machine gun (x2)
3 k-smg (x2)
4 SBP500
5 minigun
6 grenades

Works well on many maps. My favorite maps to use it on is training ground or subway.

Custom 5 ( Idiotic Weapon Set)

1 brick
2 baseball bat
3 timed mines
4 brick
5 brick
6 flamethrower

Basically this is a stupid messing around weapon set. I use it on mexican mission when there is at least 3 or 4 players. It is a love or hate weapon set lmao.

Thanks for creating this topic :lol: I hope we'll play the standard maps with custom weaponsets in the future.

First and foremost a weapon set has to be balanced - the default weapon sets usually aren't.

Set:
  • Kruger x2
  • Mg x2
  • Shotgun
  • Soviet Rifle
  • Grenades
  • Flare Gun
Variations of this set is what I usually play with, e.g. change Flare Gun with Vintage Rifle etc.

The Kruger is the most effective out of all Pistols so that you can defend yourself against spawn killing.

I havent played with you guys yet, but I have a weapon set that works. Long and short range weapons are quite balanced, maybe you can try it out:

1. Krugger X2
2. Tactical 12-gauge
3. Flare gun
4. Machine gun X2
5. Grenades
6. Soviet rifle

I dont understand why flare guns are almost absent in all sets, I consider it a great weapon when used with speed and intelligence.

it's similar to sharkgun's set. I often use that base too, but against bots I replace the kruger x2 by a single one. or lx-18 x2 or pistol x2 or scifi handgun x2.

I find that machine gun makes a good starting weapon too, maybe just slightly less powerful than the kruger x2.

most of my custom maps have their own unique weaponset, some of them being quite original. such as :

1 Brick
2 harpoon
3 flamethrower
4 vintage rifle
5 shotgun
6 ghost gun
for my dungeon map.

I liked your custom 2 and 3 set when we played. Forget the levels u had it on when we played but it was fun. An all injector weapon set sounds like it could be cool too.
