Title: game modes in OA
Post by: pulchr on August 24, 2007, 03:47:38 AM
hello!

first post on the forum and also a new OA player. my brother told me about this free and developing version of Q3 i just had to check it out. i've played for a about a week and so far had a lot of fun on the servers out there.

i remember a mod from my earlier Q3 days mod called Capturestrike - a game mode in the Threewave CTFhttp://planetquake.gamespy.com/View.php?view=MOTW.Detail&id=184 (http://planetquake.gamespy.com/View.php?view=MOTW.Detail&id=184) mod.

i also liked the stopwatch mode in RTCWhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTCW#Wolf_SW (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTCW#Wolf_SW). one team defends their objective for as long as they can or the timelimit is hit. then the teams switch sides and the other team has to defend. if a time was set the first round the attacking team now has to beat that time to win the round.

does anyone know of a mod similar to this for OA?

Based on the description of CaptureStrike on the page you refers it might be a little like CTF Elimination (gametype 9 in EliminationB10 - http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=831.0 ) with 'elimination_ctf_oneway' set to 1

yes, that sounds very much like something i could play a lot!

i guess this will be included in the next release of OA or as another addon?

awesome work!
