i'd love to see something other then TDM here at the lair. Don't get me wrong, it's fun, but I personally would like a change of pace every now and then.

What is "TDM"?

Team Deathmatch.

The only goal is to kill the enemy more than they kill you.

I definitely second the 'more than just TDM' idea.

TDM is ok, but after awhile it gets boring. You're just killing people... There's no point. The main reason I like other modes is it forces you to focus on taking/defending areas of the map. For example, Bloc (the map w/ a courtyard surrounded by tall buildings) is about 5x more fun on domination, because there is a cap point right at the very center - not an easy point to take or hold.

If the server CPU can take it, I personally vote for "Cain's Lair #2 - Mixed Modes" and alternate between S&D, Sabotage, Domination and Headquarters.

I'd like to see some more modes as well, like Domination and Headquarters. However, I think Search & Destroy may be bad. When you've only got one life per map, it becomes rather frustrating for casual or new players. Constantly dying in a regular map is one thing when you respawn in a few seconds and try again, but when you've got to wait about 5-10 minutes before you can get back in, it's another. Especially if you're constantly being the first to die.

I think it'd be a change of pace, but I think it may also drive away newer players, as well as those who don't have a lot of time to play. I would really like to see Domination or Headquarters be thrown into rotation, but I think S&D wouldn't be best for everyone.

Just my personal opinion.

Since the server has been rocking I wouldn't like to see game modes changed just keep it TDM and maybe have another server with a mixed bag of game modes. My favorite gametypes are TDM and CTF in online play most of the time. The server has been having people on it almost 24/7! Great! I keep some weird hours sometimes and want to pick up a few games and people are still playing at 3-4AM! I love it..

**L_Mo** · 9 Dec 2007, 12:15 AM

I see what you're saying about S&D, but I don't think you should drop it altogether. It's a big change of pace, and it really breaks up the crazy action. Also, the server settings can be adjusted so it's a much better experience (no waiting around for 5-10 minutes).

Where I played, the each round had a 3 minute limit, so if you got unlucky and died at the beginning it wasn't -that- bad of a wait. Plus, you stayed on the map until one team won three times (switching sides after 2 rounds). So there were at least 3 (up to 5) rounds per map. This was actually a lot of fun, and the rounds were usually over in less than 2 minutes. One team would kill off enough of the other to plant the bomb (if on offense) or kill off the team (if on defense).

**Kenshin Himura** · 9 Dec 2007, 12:24 AM

I see where you're coming from, L_Mo. Quite a few people here weren't too fond of the Project Reality mod (BF2) that had gameplay similar to S&D. There were spawn times, but they were quite lengthly, so you were forced to use a lot of teamwork and tactics to stay alive and get to your objective.

Isn't Sabotage similar to S&D with the bombs and everything, except you can still spawn back? I haven't played anything else besides TDM yet, so I may be getting it confused with something else.

Who knows? We'll see what happens, I suppose.
