What about a deathmatch/team deathmatch gametype? as far as i can tell, everyone thinks that objectives > k/d in crossfire, but there is SOOOO MUCH stuff that promotes killing in this game. there is k/d, a leaderboard for kills, MOST of the protags are for kills with X. all i can think of that promotes objectives are bot killing protags and a wins leaderboard. there are protags for killing 25 people in one life but NOTHING related to the moneyball. if a game mode were introduced, then all the people who want to shoot a ball can shoot a ball, without having to deal with people who couldn't care less if they win or not and are aiming for a k/d. the same maps could even be used, just minus a moneyball.
Then we would be like any other shooter. There are plenty of shooters that do Deathmatch well and with how our classes are built, they're not exactly great for deathmatch type gameplay. Also, we would be splitting up our small community. If we ever do something deathmatch like, it would have a unique spin on it that matches the strategy of MNC.
But whats the point? People totaly ignore the OBJECTIVE of the game. Escort the bots, take the shields down, and win the game. Everyone, and im speaking on behalf of me too, has totaly ignored that. Tom is very correct, there are no protags for how many wins you have in crossfire, or taking the money ball down by your self, none of that. I would love to see a deathmatch. Right on.
Scented Midget, What the point is that we made a game that we wanted to play but at its core it's still a shooter but with some elements we thought would be fun and different to do. If you're having fun playing it for the kills, well great! All I'm saying is that it doesn't interest us to put in a standard deathmatch mode to the current game. The point is that we're doing what we love and if other people enjoy it too, awesome.
Thank god. This game truly just does not flow with deathmatch, and I thought the repeat posts might make you guys think about doing it. I'd still love to see CTF, or a gametype based off of "war" from CoD where you have to destroy 1 money ball and push back to the final one.
Actually, I really like the idea the guy posted in there. Push the ball towards the enemy base along a fixed path, and have the game end when it's pushed all the way to the end of the path. This would actually promote a more aggressive approach and reduce campers/kill whores.
So...maybe I'm stupid, but what I'm reading here is that maybe, just hear me out there, have more bot killing and money ball killing pro tags. A tag for who killed the most bots in the match, who killed the most turrets, who shot the money ball the most, and maybe some more career protags devoted to bot, money ball, and turret killing.
