1 Bomb - 3 Objectives for each team. Each Objective has its own function.

Bomb spawns in - someone picks it up. They get a speed reduction (whatever percentage the devs decide is fair). They will also have a marker on them saying they have the bomb.

They take the bomb to one of the objectives and if they are able to spend 10 second arming the bomb, it will go off in 10 more seconds (again up to devs desecration). This will give the other team 20 seconds to counter.

One of the objectives if destroyed could shut down the base turrets. Another could slow down spawn in. Another could reduce radar functionality... Etc.. Etc. I will say this... I want to avoid stat changes however.

After all three objectives are destroyed the base critically fails and the match is won with whoever has at least one remaining objective. Maybe give bonus points to having more then one objective left standing.... just an idea.

This mode would effectively create a team work based environment. It has roots in other popular games that new players should be able to understand quickly.

Possible Strats: Quick mechs could deliver it quicker but are by nature weaker.

Medium mechs have no weakness but no strength either.

Heavy mechs are more durable but are slower. I hope you all see my logic... Its 0217 my time so I'm a little tired.

Yeah - after I had posted that it dawned on me that I hadn't stated how to win. So I went and edited the original post.

ah okay. sounds good

[Ikuinen_Lynx]

sounds interesting. the location of the objectives would be important. it would have to be in the enemies base or side of the map.

As long there is not only one life. I can play few times to try out.

Yeah - I don't believe in the one life thing - this game is designed to be high action and endurance. Putting a one life rule would just kill the action.

I like the idea. I would say that the mech holding the bomb would be unable to use boost. That would slow them enough. And the plant time of 10 seconds is good but you would need the timer to be at least 50 seconds for the other team to kill the defenders and defuse. Defuse time of 10 seconds.
