Tired of playing 3 flag CTF Bloodgulch?
No, of course not. But if you did, wouldn't it be nice to see a different type of game other than vanilla CTF, rockets only or sniper only?
Post good ideas for new gametype experiences here! We're aiming to get balanced ones which don't need much moderation and are fun to play on.
I'll start with a couple of ideas
Man The Guns
Team Slayer, Large maps, plasma only (no grenades), 400% health no shields, PLENTY of hogs, FF is OFF.
This gametype will lead to people having to run for hogs to splatter their opponents, or jump into hog turrets to kill the opposing hogs. With high health and plasma only weaps, players will be forced into using hogs more to get rid of the high health advantage, and as turrets can wear down other hogs very fast teamwork is essential as single hogs will be easily defeated. FF off will encourage both spawn-killing and defense of spawn points by hogs.
It's a blast!
Strategic Assault
CTF assault 3 scores 3min offense/defense rounds, 5 lives only, normal weapons, 50% health/shields, 4 vehicles only
The low health/shields should encourage slower gameplay as people will be more cautious. Strategy is needed: Do you put more into offense and possibly lose more people when defending, or vice versa? Warning, may be boring for dead people.
Too Many Balls
FFA Oddball (hold the skull) 5min 15 balls, plasma pistol start weapon, small maps
Just because hitting people with a skull is fun.
Incineration Insanity (untested)
Team Slayer, 400% health/shields, small maps, FLAMERS FOR EVERYONE (flamers only, flamers startup weapons) FF OFF (for gods sake, this bit is important)
I have seriously no idea if this would work or be fun, but it would probably melt people's graphics cards. BURN!
