Future Game Modes

Colonel

You know Aroth I was thinkin that too hah, but this would mean more control points until one team has enough to win. If set like an underground chamber map then the next control point could be randomized. I havent played tf2 in so long, but yea there are striking similarities.

It can be done as push ok, but what if it's done as an entirely new gamemode? The concept is a lot like te_, but what I'm trying to get at is randomizing the location of it so players have to adapt and there is more reward for reaching the obj. Once a team wins won they receive a boost to help them go to the next one. It could be called King and pawns ha!

KNUDA.knatch

this talk of duel modes make me think of jedi knight outcast back in the day...aw sigh. it was great fun tho, might be a little twitchy for pvk but worth a try?

I don't think the dueling can be done, but what the Colonel suggested is definitely doable as objective push.

I was thinking of a game lobby where two players have to enter a trigger to be teleported to one of several arenas.

Yeah that could be done, the area could be a big arena divided into several chambers. There would be a seats area around the whole thing like in lts_arena where the players originally spawn (a no attack zone) from where they can look to all the chambers. They could choose what chamber to teleport into from there; the winner stays, gets to fill up on health, armor and ammo (from a separate small chamber in the actual duelling area that only opens when one of the two dies and closes again when a new challenger enters the room) and either waits for a new challenger to enter the room or exits the room back to the seats to pick a new opponent himself.

Maybe rather make it lts and everyone gets a duell each round so that the winner does not greet the new enemy with a special each time

Oh yeah didn't think about the specials.


In any case, I won't be making a duel map; I hate duels (because I suck at them) and have enough dragony stuff on my plate anyway.

I did something similiar for the clantraining for TBR a while back ago, i made it something similiar to Deathrun(CSS) where one of my members would be pirate and he would push the button to open the next gate and to get the hidden stash of food/armour avaible for the winner so he could move on etc. The use of specials would also be a problem, its easy this way to make it but not really recommended on public servers,

On that note I'd love to see a Deathrun map. . The trappers could be vikings, and the runners could be pirates locked to skirmishers, and they could start with one full special they could use to try to lunge past traps. .

A real viking would never refuse a challange because that would mean he is weak.

But still, that's what booty is for.

Capture the Kingdom

Uncle Peat

good idea

Colonel

Survive The Clan!

Reskin each class, have the bots attack everyone, and make them cum in wavves.

Denshin

Spacebattles! Ships in the forms of frigates that shoot lazers!

Dark Auk

For those still confused about Relic, it sounds like the Assault gamemode from the Halo series.

As for a survival gamemode, how about some undead? All three living factions must work together (no team balance required) to slay thier undead counterparts.

Zombies
Undead Of: Pirates
Eye Color: Green
Weapons: Bare hands/hooks.
Weakness: Piercing damage, bashing damage.
Resistance: Cutting damage, immune to poison.
Tactics: Make up for their weak attacks by swarming the living; each zombie class has a different 'abililty'.
Un-Skirmy: Sometimes lights a keg and go kamikaze, becoming a homing time bomb.
Un-Captain: Unleashes zombie parrot.
Un-Sharpshooter: Drops ammo powerup upon death.
Un-Freebooter: Chance of applying poison upon attack.
Un-'Ealer: Uses 'slap'.
Un-Buccaneer: ???

Draugr
Undead Of: Vikings
Eye Color: Blue
Weapons: Lawnmower, Throwing Axe, Langseax + Shield, Seax, Rune of Storm, Sword + Shield.
Weakness: Explosive damage, cutting damage.
Resistance: Bashing damage, piercing damage.
Tactics: Rush the living with a barrage of melee attacks.

Vampires
Undead Of: Knights
Eye Color: Red
Weapons: Greatsword, Butterknife, Halberd, Stilletto, Staff, 2H Flail.
Weakness: Piercing damage, cutting damage.
Resistance: Explosive damage, bashing damage, can't go within 77 meters of a Cleric using 'prayer'.
Tactics: Intellegently attacks and parries during battle, regenerates 50% of the damage they inflict on the living.

Are you guys still working on different game mods ? good old CTF sounds more than interesting.

Colonel

Booty is more of an alternate CTF aka a game like Stones from camp

It would stand out if it is capture the relic or something.

Perspective

I would suggest the lord not carrying musical instrument but instead have a warcry ability or have an inspiring aura of some sort that does not stack.

holding mousebutton to make the a lord play dem drumz seems a little off

Draulius

Capture the Wench. You score a point every time you carry the wench back to base, and can bash people with the wench.

Apologies if this idea has already been mentioned.

They should work like the soldier's buff banners in TF2 IMO, you press the button, it plays a short animarion with the instrument and then buffs all nearby allies.

Also, a CTF mode sounds like a good idea if there was only one flag that all three teams should fight for or something. It'd kind of be a combination of booty and the grail mode.

Denshin

Wonder if the drums could actually be the lords special attack, but then he'd have to rely on teammates for it to be any potent. But as you say if it was like the buff banner then the lord would be buffed as well, in that case I can see this as a very plausible lord special!

yeah sure. I only meant that a lord should not be a musician.

That could actually work very well, I'm just wondering how the captain would work then, maybe they could just change his special or give him two or something.

I agree, that would easily become very boring.

These game modes sounds so awesome! Especially Slay the Dragon!
