Seeing as there are only 4 PVP modes in the game so far, I thought I would suggest my favorite mode from Gears of War/Halo: add "VIP" (otherwise known as Assassination)

The goal of VIP is that each team has a leader (a randomly picked human player), and as long as the leader is alive, then that team has the ability to respawn. In order to win, you have to kill the enemy VIP, then wipe out the rest of the team.

its my favorite game mode due to the fact its a combination of PVP and objective-based gameplay, and on top of that, its usually really fun and requires a great degree of teamwork (or a good sniper )

I wish there was good ol' CTF in this game.

[hendman]

1 Vip + 5 techs.........good luck with that.

Why not_ I might be the newest guy around here but even I know that this would work if you'd just remake the VIP thing a little.

Naira VIP version 1:

1 VIP+5 Tech.

VIP gets to be strong as hell while the techs are just.. normal techs.

The goal is to eliminate the VIP before the time runs out

Version 2:

Same as above, but the VIP is not over powered and the goal here is to kill the enemies VIP and when you've done that the person which gets the kill turns into the new VIP and so on, the team with the most VIP score wins.

CTF is cool and all...

But I personally don't think that the maps are suited for CTF

We played a similar game at the third EU Fight Club. It was about protecting a Brawler in turret mode and escorting him to the enemy starting position. This was before turrets could boost.

[leviestrada]

good idea!
we definitely need more gamemodes

[EM1O]

get your clan to do VIP in TDM match mode. easy. if you're not in a clan, match up a friday night party. anythings do-able!
more beer, and the techs'll even be free-for-allin' it after a while.

VIP vs 6 skilled snipers/infils/preds.

That'd be the only theoretical problem with the mode, you'd have to limit what mechs can be used as to not gain an unfair advantage.

i dont think ctf would work that well actually. unless there was like vehicles or something (which would be hilarious btw, a mech getting into a huge ass mech monster truck. i actually want to see that now)

as is now, it would pretty much all be serker and scouts because of how fast they are. and they can get from edge to edge of a map in seconds.

unless they made it so you cant boost while holding the flag.... then it would like geriatrics ctf because it would take forever to walk the flag that far.

vip mode. could maybe work, but i also sense thered be issues like stated, everyone would go tech.

i think itd be cool to have something like theres 3 objectives that one team has to blow up and the other team has to stop them.

I like idea. It's also great job for snipers. They can be used without others complaining about camping.

I play VIP mode every time i take my Tech out of garage. It's kinda complicated though. I have 5 VIPs that i need to keep alive, while enemy team thinks I'm the actual VIP and tries to kill me ;/

[Dongabhana]

that sounds very interesting with moving objectives!
Count me in

[Squeedge]

I love this idea, personally i would fix some things:
1) VIP can be seen in the minimap and only C class can be selected.
2) There are, idk 3-5 rounds that leght 5 minutes that the VIP has to survive.
3) To play this mode you need at least (20-30 hours of gameplay) or 150 games. (we can all agree that this mode need cordination and i wouldent like to see a guy with the default metchs trying to figure out how to play this mode when he dont even know how to move his mech.
4) The teams that wins its the one that won more rounds, if after 5 minutes neither of the VIP died then there is no more respawn until all the mechs are dead making the last survivor/s the winners of that round.

[Blood_Jester]

VIP mode: Oh god yes!

Have the VIP appear on the minimap will help, especially if the VIP decides to be a pred, although restricting it to a C-class, as sqeedge suggested, may also work. It is important that the VIP knows he/she is the VIP before mech selection.


Capture the flag mode: Also yes

Provided there is some way to mitigate scouts, beserkers, infiltrators and raiders from simply grabbing the flag and running across in a matter of seconds. Perhaps reducing boost and walk/run speed will help.
