I just randomly thought these up wile trying to get an idea across.


Escort Mode:There could be a new game mode were the objective is so protect these/a large class D mobile armor mech/s (an idea being discussed in my "Create a Destroyer class mech!" topic) and escort them/it from point A to point B. Team A could be the escort and team B could be the attackers and when the round is over, the teams switch sides and the other team gets to escort the class D mech witch will be pioleted by one of the players who has a class D mech. Objective is to get the class D mech from point A to point B were it will launch an attack on team A's (or B's) base, destroying it.

Large Scale Battle: Obviously a 16 VS 16 mode. Takes place on a large to extra large map. Team A is intercepting team B who is trying to destroy a nearby city by mobilizing a large class D mobile armor. Team A is launching there own class D mobile armor along with smaller mechs to stop team B's class D mech (and company). As of now, wining team is determined by number of kills each team has before the timer runs out in 15 minuets... (or it could be determined by the least amount of time the enemy class D mech was destroyed_)

Work with me here guys! I'm still thinking this stuff up/this is NOT my final idea!

if you've got ideas for unique game modes, perhaps you'll consider assisting me with a video game idea I've got in the works_

The short version:

a robotic FPS with squad-based gameplay, total customization of characters (customizable gear, weapons, etc) lots of role warfare and strategic gameplay, different unit classes (infantry, vehicles, mechs, aircraft)

sound interesting_ Message me and we might talk about details.

I mentioned it because Large Scale Battle sounds like it might fit into my game idea very well..

In Hawken... not so much.

Again with this_ You just described two different types of escort mission where one has little to nothing to do with escorting to win.

TFC back in the day had a really awsome escort mode.

The basic idea of an escort mission is great, however I don't see it as a complete game mode, but more as a dynamic event.

Escort reminds me of a Global Agenda (ick, cant believe I'm mentioning that game) game mode.  It was a good game mode (as far as GA can be concerned).  I'd fully approve of this type of game mode in hawken

[Darksteel]

I don't think "escort" would fit along with the Hawken game world. But the epic battle mode would fit perfectly. 16v16 or 32v32 (maybe not that much, but what the hell). Incorporating squad or clan matches would be awesome too.

I appreciate your creativity, but I feel like you're trying to design game modes around your Class D mech, which isn't feasible in the first place. Nor is it feasible to create an entire game mode around 1 mech class. If your Class D was implemented these could be cool options, but...just....no.

Sounds suspiciously like Hawken. Regardless, this is not the time and this is certainly not the place to be drumming up support for a game of your own. Do that elsewhere please.

Escort seems a lot like the siege modei.e u have 2 protect the battleship so that it reaches their base.just my oppinion though.
