Frankenizer (Randomizer)

The cult classic community game mode "Randomizer" is back, with brand new mechanics and animations! No longer will your pathetic arms be horribly twisted, mangled, or turned into ghosts. Your arms will now adapt to every weapon, with only MINOR twisting and mangling! It's far less painful, and far less ghastly. We think you'll agree. If you don't, we'll go back to twisting and mangling you, as per the previous status quo! So BEWARE!!!



But that's not all-- third person animations are adapted, too! While some contortion and discomfort is to be expected, many wonderful sights are still in store for you. Your Engineer, revved up at his sentry nest... Your Medic, capable of blasting rockets... Your sniper, continuing to be useless, but this time, he's holding a syringe gun! I'm horrified just thinking about it!





While you can expect your loadout to be scrambled, your class' core identity is preserved.

• Engineers are the only ones capable of placing and upgrading buildings. Your buildings will also remain on the map, even when you change class. However, you will no longer be able to repair them. A fellow randomized engineer will have to pick up where you left off.
  
• Medics will always have some form of healing. The medigun will be randomized between the Vaccinator, Kritzkrieg, Quickfix, and stock.
  
• Spy is the only character capable of sapping and disguising. He will always spawn with a sapper, and his melee weapons will always mini-crit from behind.
  
• Outright useless weapons, like the Wrangler, are removed.

This keeps your support classes reliable in a pinch, and keeps your loadouts from feeling completely godawful. No more crying for a Medic and only getting a random guy with a scorch shot. Rejoice!






The Dice is a brand new pickup exclusive to Randomizer. Grab this enchanted cube of ivory and feel the refreshing surge of a new and scrambled loadout, along with full health and ammo! You will be transmogrified in the spot, fully strapped and ready to humiliate any opponent who underestimates the power of gambling mechanics in videogames.

Dice are also placed outside of your spawn rooms, so if you spawn with a loadout you absolutely hate, you can quickly shuffle it for a new one.



(Note: The text you see here is a placeholder, a fancy HUD is in the works!)



Fasten your fetid seat-belts, because with the RANDOMIZER around, this Player Destruction map is all gas and NO brakes!

Frankenizer is part-gothic, part-ritualistic, and part-medical-waste. The map has two capture zones, which alternate pack and forth as the round progresses. You'll be rotating all over shop, cutting through a church with a large central air vent. This vent can take you to multiple spots of high ground, giving you the advantage over many parts of the map. Just be careful-- it's quite a high traffic area-- even when it isn't Sunday!






This map is a spook-ified version of Chateau, a Payload map similar to Upward. Deliver a corpse all the way up the massive, spiraling mountain, and stuff it into the reanimator!



If you're not a fan of Player Destruction, we hope that having a Payload map to play will allow you more diversity in how you choose to play!



Deadlines are hard. If we had to guess, about 70% of you are still in grade school, so we know you hate them just as much as we do. BUT FEAR NOT! While our Halloween-themed homework may be turned in, it's still very much mutable! This mode and map is in beta, and therefore is a work in progress! There are known problems, and they will be increasingly hot-fixed as it's played. Notice something you think is a problem, or generally have feedback to give? Please use the discussions tab on the workshop page.

We hope you have fun!
