New Modes

Post by fiddler_on_the_roof »

I was wondering if anybody had any ideas for new modes, as i have run out.

for example, a ctf mode where instead of taking a flag to one place, you had to take it to several regions in a row to capture it.

what exactly do you mean, like i get the idea of controling a center region, but does that center region move? or does it move to different hills?

You know the rules of king of the hill right? (When you're in the circle alone/with only team members you gain points)
Repsharpshooter made a King of the Hill bonusmap that came with Battle Arena 2.0
The twist is that on set times (every 1 min/30 seconds), the "king of the hill" region changes place, making you hurry to another place in the map.

In VIP one (or more, but not too many) trooper is a VIP, that does mean when he is killed the other team gets a point. so your teammates gotta protect him. The VIP can have a shield or something.

(i guess that would be more fun online)

ok, thanks, so it is kinda like the holocron mode?

that could be interesting if you didn't have the shield and you where the VIP the whole time...

Link: ObjectiveKOH

A demo map is in the old versions folder. Its version of KOH had a couple of bugs (which is why it is in 'old versions'), but the main ObjectiveKOH.lua liked to above fixed them.

How about a mode based off of spy hunt(i think thats the mode) in Combat Arms where its 1vs all but the one person gets a really cheap powerful gun and a slow health regen. and everyone else gets weak guns. then the person who kills the 1 person gets to become that 1 person.
