New Default Game Mode Proposal - "War"

I think (if neats idea is implemented) we have to make a spectator thing where the dead people follow around the alive ones. Also a normal spectator "team" would be cool.

 

Could you make the tent give 250 wood and stone in the building phase?

I'm glad the flag is gone, it was so anticlimactic.

 

Also make sure that teamates cannot destroy their own spawn point because you can guess how that would turn out each game.

 

I think it would be fun :) More like a deathmatch almost. Also reminds me of an RTS since you win by destroying everything!

 

Even if one guy does set up a corner outpost, isn't that fair? The enemies of his should have control of the map anyways so it would just be a matter of time and I think it'll be fun to hunt those last few fuckers down :)

 

I agree about just ending the game when the tent is destroyed. Keep it simple.

 

Spotted a problem, A few knights could easily kill the red tent if there red, so make it so only blue can kill red structures, bomb or not.

 

I don't like the idea as proposed. If it became standard, I'd stick to CTF. My main reason is that it sounds like the game would become less free-form. Having a pre-built, default castlem for example: It takes the fun out of creating your own base defense solution.

This sounds like it could be extremely tedious. Imagine if the survivors are Builders and tunnel, while blocking up behind them, into the bottom corners of the map.

 

Hence my idea of having a time limit for them to eventually just die without you having to kill them, until they build a new tent.

 

This "War" mode sounds good to me. Let's try it.

 

I agree. Enough discussion, lets test.

 

In the test version?

 

Sounds good but you should make a poll after each game for 10 seconds where the players can choose the gamemode of the next game.

And I'd add a simple gamemode where the team with e.g. 200 kills wins. There should also be a poll to vote for the amount of kills you need to win this gamemode.

 

The only real problem I have with this game mode proposal is the possibility that the remaining players, after their final spawn's destruction, would go into hiding, thus drawing out the game indefinitely.

Edit: Therefore, I propose a countdown that starts after the final spawn's destruction. Either the enemy team constructs a new spawn, destroys the remainder of the would-be-winning-team and their spawns or dies. At the end of the countdown, if they did none of the above, the game would end. It could be a 5 minute "overtime" of sorts.

 

I like this idea. I dislike its name but can live with simply "War".

I do agree there would be a problem with slugging the game along for the team without any spawns.

Reminds me of SC2 :P On last spawn base destroyed, 15 seconds (probably longer) later reveal position. You are given 2 minutes to see if you can rebuild a base. (Ofc times will vary based on testing.)
Being on the team searching for the team without spawns, I wouldn't have much fun just looking around. I would want them to be able to win fairly easily after that point (since they probably deserve to), but still give the losing team a chance to recover.

 

Wow you guys have already thought of everything. Hahaha I was thinking maybe I was clever for suggesting this, though I only just saw this thread.

 

Make a giant pixalized boss of Bruce Lee spawn if a stalemate occurs and everyone has to team up to kick his ass. He is able to 2HKO anything with his uppercuts and Karate Chops. He has fifty hearts and recharges at a rate of 2 hearts per second.
