Suggestion: 'Predator' games

New game mode - Predator:

* The Assassin games gave me this idea for a new game mode. Instead of the game ending with your eliminating your target. You are then assigned to the target of your previous target. For example, Red's 'prey' is Green, Green's 'prey' is Blue, if Red eliminates Green, Blue becomes Red's new 'prey'.


Details:

* Suggestion Idea: A game based on pred/prey relationship.
* Specifics: This will work best with a large number of people in the game, like 5 or 6. Points should be given to anyone who is able to eliminate his own target. Slightly less points should be give to anyone who is able to eliminate his predator. Anyone who eliminates someone who is neither their predator or prey should lose a small amount of points to discourage random killing.
* Why it is needed: Another fun game mode.


Anyone else think this will be fun?

It's just regular RISK with a kill order..

I don't think it would work..

Not at all, since you'll lose points for killing someone who is not your prey or predator, you'll need to put more thought into killing someone just for their cards. Everyone will be hunting someone else, and everyone will be hunted.

Too similar to assassin mode in my opinion - nothing wrong with the idea - just that it would be a waste of time programming it when we already have a very similar game mode

How about a version of asassin where you can only win by defeating your target by yourself. If your target is eliminated by someone else, he then becomes your new target.

Well, I'd think you'd be able to use a lot of the same code for assassin game for this mode, just need to add a little to keep the game going to passing the target on and giving out points differently, shouldn't bee too difficult, right?

that part surely won´t work, It would end up in a game with prays trying to take the pred, and viceversa. In a 6 men game, you would have 3 different one on one games

Concise description:
  • You earn points by killing your target. If someone kills your target you still get the points.
  • If you eliminate your target you earn points in the style of terminator and get allocated your old targets target

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • New game type
  • Fun

This is the post hecter made in another thread
hecter wrote:I think your on the right track... How about a Terminator/Assassin type game, and when you eliminate a player, who ever had that player as their target get their points. Then it's just like the person had deadbeated; obviously the person who eliminated them gets their cards, and then the person who had them as their target gets their target, and the game continues. Basically...

A/B
B/C
C/D
D/E
E/F
F/A

B eliminates C, B gets C's points, cards, and D becomes his target.
B eliminates A, B gets A's cards, F gets A's points and B becomes F's target.

You get points for the kill of YOUR target, and if someone else kills YOUR target YOU get the points, its great!

Taking it from your thread, I like the name "Hitman". It's like we've all got contracts. If your contract gets fulfilled, by any means necessary, then you get paid, and you get a new contract.

well i thought of something like this ages ago but i never posted it because of a flaw

mine went

when your target is down no matter who killed him you get the points and you gain another target

only problem with that is what if someone else kills your new target as you and someone else would share to kill him

1st i thought which ever one kills them gets those points and if someone completely different kill them then the only way i can see it is you both would share it

It would be fine as long as you gain their target. It works for deadbeats in assassin games, so it'll work for this too.

this is not a problem at all as long as you gain the dead guys target

and if your target gets killed by someone else then you get the dead guys target and the killers target remains the same
