+Key Hunt is a round-based game mode normally played with 3 teams, but 2 or 4 teams are also possible.
In each round, one player of each team gets a key. The goal of each round is to collect all the keys and gather up to score a lot of points. The first team to reach the score goal (default: 1000) wins the match.
--------
The game is played in seamless rounds. At the beginning of a round, one player per team gets a key in the color of the own team. The player who got the key (called “key carrier”) will see a message and the team mates will instantly see the position of the allied key carrier.
-The message “Scanning frequency range ...” will appear. After 100 seconds, the positions of all keys will be revealed to everyone in the HUD and radar.
+A few seconds after the beginning of a round, the positions of all keys will be revealed to everyone in the HUD and radar.
To win a round (and score big), your team has to grab all the keys and join them together. As soon as a team has all the keys, they must meet. If a single player collects all the keys, the team also wins the round.
1. The key carrier destroyed/lost the key due to own clumsiness: The team is “punished” by rewarding all other teams with a few points. This will appear as “destroyed” in the scoreboard
2. An opponent pushed the key carrier violently into the abyss or a deadly liquid which destroyed the key. This awards the attacking team some points. This will be counted under “pushes” in the scoreboard
-Finally, you can drop your keys by pressing the “Drop flag/key” control. It's [F] by default.
