1. NAME: To be decided

SUGGESTED BY: jojorabbit

STATUS: Will be tested

Hey guys,
today while i was playing with some scar functions i came with idea for new game mode, am not sure that any mod has this kind of game mode .
It can become quite interesting to play. I have tested it and it works. With a little tweaking it can become even better then it is now.

GAME MODE DESCRIPTION:
It would start like normal VP game but after some INTERVAL 5-10 mins of game, all victory points become neutral and they are re-positioned on map, then players again need to capture them. And again after INTERVAL they are again neutral and re-positioned.

TEST VERSION:
Interval for re-positioning is from 5-10 mins and is decided randomly so you will never know when they will re-position. After each re-position point are neutral and players need to capture them again.

NOTES:
1. Everything is same like in normal VP game only VPs change positions nothing else, all remains same.
2. VPs will always be located to walkable positions so they can always be captured, never in places like houses, deep water where units can't reach them etc.
3. AI captures them without any problems so you don't have to worry about that .


NAME SUGGESTIONS:
1. My Name Is Ante: Mystery VP? a.k.a MVP mode
2. Cat Fishy: Running VPs, Switch Up
3. Trooper425: Capture The Flag aka CTF


IDEAS TO IMPROVE THIS OR MAKE SIMILAR NEW GAME MODE - needs more discussion
1. Trooper425:
- May I suggest (asuming it hasn't been done) only 1 VP, it moves every 5min or less, and the gametype is called CTF?
reason:
There is KOTH in EF already



I would like to hear your opinions, suggestions, comments about it. And name suggestions too .

Here are some images:


Hope you like it .


2. NAME: AUTO VP or any other better suggested name -> to be decided

SUGGESTED BY: jojorabbit

STATUS: Undecided/Unknown -> ready to test

DESCRIPTION:
Starts as normal VP game but VPs are not captured like in normal VP game. Rule for capturing them is to be in radius 10-15m close to points for 5-10 sec but you have to be only player/team in that radius to capture it if enemy comes to radius capture timer is reset and players/teams need to fight to be alone in radius again to start capture timer.

The timer will not depend on have many units you have near point so blobs won't help much. It may be a tricky with stealth units that could reset timer and run away , to make it more interesting you can capture VP with any vehicle that is near but also you need to be only team near point to start capture timer.

The only problem that could result here is camping at one VP, but there are min 3 VPs so it is not big problem.

NOTES:
1. Everything is same like in normal VP game, starts from 500 points
2. AI captures them without any problems so you don't have to worry about that .


NOTES: DO NOT suggest modes like reality mods(weapons changes), skin packs they are not gonna be listed here and post will be deleted.

It seems weird and fun, I like it XD. What's the proposed name for this gametype?

[jojorabbit]

I call it dynamic VP aka DVP but if anyone has good name it can be changed .

[My Name Is Ante]

Mystery VP? a.k.a MVP mode

[jojorabbit]

This one seems better then dynamic , and kinda points to disappearing VPs .
I will add name suggestions to started post, and some changes i made to it.

[Desert_Fox]

The victory will be assigned like a normal VP game right?

[jojorabbit]

Everything is same like normal game only VPs change positions nothing else. -> added to top post.

[stealthattack1]

misguided directive? this would suggest the goals of the mini-game changing constantly. i also like this idea.

[jojorabbit]

misguided directive?

What do you mean by this?
Victory condition remains same you still need to get your enemy to 0 points.
It just makes it a little harder cuz VPs get neutral and need to be captured again.

[My Name Is Ante]

Now that I think about it, how far actually the VP will change its location?
I mean, I don't want all the VP to line up very close to my enemy base...

[jojorabbit]

That can be adjusted i left two options:
1st option: in some radius from where they were when game started, so they will always be close to their starting pos
2nd option: in some radius from previous position

This needs some tests to see which one is better .
There are very low chances that all will get close to enemy base i did not saw that case in tests yet .

[Pac-Fish]

Alternate name: Running VPs XD. Switch Up?

I think it seems like a cool idea. Mysterious and harder to camp.

[Otto Halfhand]

Sounds like a shell game to me. I think you have a winner jojo.

occurs to me that VPs could be located to strategic intersections or choke points. could lead to interesting meeting engagements and fire fights.

[Trooper425]

May I suggest (asuming it hasn't been done) only 1 VP, it moves every 5min or less, and the gametype is called CTF?

[Otto Halfhand]

Capture the Flag
