New mode: capture and defend

This is quite simple really, both sides have a starting base but there is another base that must be captured and defended (a building). When either one of the opasite team captures this base, the base will have a colour indicator to which team it belongs to, such as a blue or red flag on both sides of the bulding, or the floors change colour inside the building.
The longer they defend the more points they get untill the time runs out or the score limit is exceeded.
I'm also thinking different maps have different amounts of bases to capture.
heres a simple structure of the map (very very very simple)

The team that has captured the building will not spawn in that aria.

capture and defend add-on:

the team who defends the building for a certain amount of time gets a special wep crate (unable to keep outside of the mode)

(yes/no)?

  • Firstly, im a girl. and secondly its deffenetly nothing to do with capture the flag.


    basically whatever team captures the base, there will be an object indicating which team has captured it. it will change to either red or blue.



    the tactics are, move swifly, efficiantly and capture the base. put up good defences and make sure the other team does not capture it.

    i think thats pretty simple if i do say so myself :P
    its just a good team work mode and im thinking of editing the mode a bit.

    and what relevancy does this have to your suggestion?

    I get what you mean here - it might be a little hard to balance this though.

    For example, TF2. TF2 has this gamemode and it's pretty hard to balance - not to count it has sentries, etc.

    then again I guess it'd not be as complicated as escape mode.

    theres always one (facepalm)... for personal recommendations i don't like to be called a he/him. lol

    also most modes on crossfire are hard and somewhat unbalenced

    ^This..

    On a side note: Just because some modes are in the list is does not mean that they will never be added to the game, this list does just exist to prevent numerous threads on these topics. ZM was in there once too :)
  • Nobody is going to play it anyway.

    This mode exists in games like Halo (2001) and several Unreal Tournament (1999) games and also in Call of Duty and people are rarely or never playing them. Even if they play it, there are mostly noobs. In a 10vs10 match there might be 4 players in each team that actually go for the objective while the other players just play it like TDM.
  • Everyone knows, that these modes are the best! And yes, everyone wants them... Why are they not here? => Creators too lazy... :/

    buy Halo or any other game with that mode and try to find a server with that mode.

    If everybody loves those mods, then there should be many servers with that mod right? But you wont find a lot of them.
  • (It's OT now) ... have you ever played TF2? There is a lot of servers with cp_, koth_, ctf_ maps.
  • The reason for that is that there are no other mods.
  • i detest that comment. You can't speak for everyone in the whole world to wether they like this idea or not, everyone is different. and im sure people (like myself) want to play a mode like this. and for that reason does not make US noobs, it means we just like something different. and i dont want to play halo. I KNOW halo has those sort of modes, duh. its sci-fi wher-as this game is more real life orientated and has different combat statistics.


    and to those posting that old thread with these ideas already posted on it, I KNOW DAMNIT you only need to post it once. if a forum moderator does not want this thread being repeated he/she will remove it.

    P.S: i did not (DID NOT) take any ideas from any other game despite what game has this mode, i randomly came up with it whilst looking at what modes there was currently in crossfire. so we can drop the halo thing now

    thanks to all those supporting the idea ^.^
    *breathes* :)
  • If you think that mode is good and people will like it, then create your own game with that map and publish it...

    hahaahaha im sorry but thats the most damned funnyiest thing i have ever heard. :P yes
    ill publish my own game because im a fully qualified and skilled game designer xD and there is no hard work involved at all, just lots and lots and lots of coding and creating 3D graphics with the correct co-ordinations and rendering.


    sorry but have you read your reply? how stupid does it sound when there is a "suggestion" thread on the forums of crossfire, it is there for a reason. now correct me if im wrong, but if what i'm doing is so shockingly horrifying then how come a moderator has not yet deleted this post?

    i'll answere that for you, because this is a suggestion in the "suggestion" thread. doesn't mean to say it's going to happen. im not here to point fingers and argue over something very small like a new mode. i'm pretty sure people wont like maps like this, but the majority who do you don't know about yet. because the mode hasn't been created. i can accept it if people don't like this idea, but the guy who called people noobs for agreeing with this, is very childish.
  • It's an interesting idea!

    Guild Wars 2 has the exact same concept. Except, I truly believe you need to make the maps bigger for it to be fun & balanced, so one side doesn't exploit it. Most of Crossfire's maps are pretty small for a mode like that.

    You could just hire someone to do it for you. if you don't have that money then just rent a server. It costs you only 5€ every month and you can set up a counter strike source server with ctf or what ever else mod you want.

    Try it yourself, and you will see that nobody is going to play on that server because everybody hates those game modes.

    Ohh, and this time you can't blame that game being sci fi.

    There is a reason why moderators have created that thread with things not to suggest, you broke that rule. And just because moderators don't do a crap doesn't means that you are right, mods are lazy.

    You are free to make suggestions but you are not allowed to make suggestions that are in the list, and this thread is one of them which means it is against the rules and should be deleted. If it's not deleted it means that the moderators do not do their job correctly.

    im sure insulting moderators is far worse than me posting a suggestion

    i understand you don't like this idea, fair do's i don't mind. amd i dont have a hub. i have a d0ngle, im living in what i call crap flats and the landlord will not allow us to get internet put in our flats. so the server thing goes out the window for me lol

    Reason being why the MODs didn't delete this thread yet is simply because they wanted it to die. With you replying to it you just revived it.

    is this similar to domination or hard point in any way shape or form?....
  • Guys and Gals simmer down, Jem is correct it is a suggestion... and being the way she is thinking of it, it truely doesnt fall into the catigories listed on the dont suggest list.

    Instead of Just bashing someones ideas try to see what their intent is.

    it would be an interesting mode, I would play it occasionally probably not often but still

    at least the King of the hill isnt 1 of the modes that they say will never happen, so there is a chance if someone puts it up once in a while that it will be considered
