Subject: new Game types needed, HELP!

"Help Help I'm being repressed! Come and see the Violence inherent in the system!"
"Bloody peasant!"
"Oh did you see that? you saw him repress me?"

not a noob, just new to this forumn, i'm usually on New Mombassa.

Ok, problem, we do system links alot, and we're running out of ideas! We do:
Single CTF at BG
Assault at BG
Rocket Oddball anywhere small
Team Oddball at Hang em High <go in caves!>
Single CTF at SW

Can you post what serious game types you know! Yes they need to be fun but not "Invisble players 400% life with plasma weapons" something thats team based and serious!

We do BG Assault, and i'm pretty good with the flag, if i've got support!

Predator: Chill out or Prisoner
Oddball, with ball you're fast and invisible, without ball none, juggernaught settings. Weapon set close range! No motion tracker either.

Predator has to pick off people that are on their own, non predators need to stay in group and hunt predator <exaclty like the movie> and is really good fun, 4 people each with own screen, or 2 on each screen works well but people can see where the predator is by screen looking <we don't do it, but some people do>. Really good game if your good at picking of people

Here's my Gametype, its called 'Hunted'

General Settings:
Players: Even amount, 4 minimum, 16 maximum
Gametype: FFA Oddball (Normal)
Map: Wizard or Derelict for 8 or less players, 8+ then Hang 'Em High
Weapon Settings: No Snipers
Health Settings: 200% Health and Shields On (Unlimited lives too)
HUD Settings: Objective Indicator On

Oddball Settings:
Number of Balls: Half the amount of players
Trait without Ball: Damage Resistant
Trait with Ball: Faster
Time to win: 5 minutes

Notes:
* The Sniper Rifle was taken out simply because it proved the most useless weapon in this game. The size of the maps needed for this gametype (not including Hang 'Em High) is small so the Sniper Rifle proves inpractical in all situations. Anyway, when playing in Hang 'Em High, you'd kill a ball holder with the Sniper Rifle and by the time you go collect the ball, someone else has taken it. Its better to take it out of the game than leave it in for someone else to take 30 minutes to discover it sucks.

Overall Trends:
* The balls will appear and everyone will rush in to get them (instant bloodbath!). Whoever survives (probably with low health) will have the ball but will most likely get owned by the freshly spawned enemies returning to the hotspot. The Question is: "Do you storm in and grab it to see if you can get away inharmed? Or do you wait to pick off the weak ball holders as they try to escape?

* After the balls have been picked up and the holders are on the move, here's what usually happens:
1. The ball holders realise that there are other like them accumulating time. They will try and kill them to stop their timer; this is whilst they'll be trying to avoid the 'Hunters' (players without balls).
2. The Hunters simply look for which ball holder is nearest using the Objective Indicator ( NO HIDING! . They then go to get him as quick as they can to stop his timer; and then start theirs.
3. It's a possibility that more than one Hunter will turn up at a ball holder, they'll fight over who gets to take the ball.

Basically, this game kicks ass.

i found that ctf 3 captures in derelict is actually pretty fun...also rockets in derelict, and oddball is awesome as well.
