[GO] Team Terminator and Assassin Games

[rdsrds2120]

Hopefully not, I want my ASSASSIN WINS QUICKER.
Which also brings upon the point of medals - thoughts anyone?

I feel like this has reached the end of its discussion phase. Moving to submitted.

[Qwert]

wow,its these correct? these sugestion its old 3 years

[-=- Tanarri -=-]

Yeah, the suggestion has been suggested over and over again over the last three years. I'm glad that it's in the accepted pile. It gives me hope that maybe within the next 5 years we'll be able to play team terminator and assassin games

[redhedge47]

There needs to be a way to have teams and things like terminator and assassin it would add in a bit more variation (yes I know theres already a ton of variation but who asked you)

[chapcrap]

Coming up on 6 years for this idea. I support it by the way.

Doubles Assassin/Terminator Game Types

Concise description:

• Creating a couple new types of game types that include Doubles Assassin and Doubles Terminator options.

Specifics/Details:

• Doubles Assassin would be where games of 4, 6, or 8 players on doubles teams have to win by taking out a different team instead of a single player.
• Doubles Terminator would be where games of 4, 6, or 8 players on doubles teams earn points after completely taking out an opposing team. The points are then evenly split between the conquering team.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

• With new types of gameplay to choose from, it will add another flavor to this already enjoyed site. New medals would be created to match the new options and it would help spark a new possibilities for tourneys and clan wars in addition to raising interest for the site's standard solo players.

I think this is a good idea... viewtopic.php?f=535&t=118486

I missed that thread. My bad.

[greenoaks]

this could be merged into Team Assassin/Terminator

i like it; but i wouldn't create new medals; this would count for regular terminator and regular assassin unique kills in my opinion.

as well as dubs, trips or quads

I have a better idea concerning team assassin, the team should only target one player of the team, not the whole team, based on this:

This is especially handy for multi team games.

This can be also implemented for poly, so you can play poly assassin.

And this would be new medal (team assassin).

[Conchobar]

I haven't played Terminator or Assassin games in ages. Just recently noticed I'm stuck on 99/100 kills for the Terminator medal. This is because I mostly play clan games or team games.
But, I would be happy to have the terminator/assassin type of game return to my world. I can't think of a reason why these very different forms of games should be impossible with teams.
Doubles would obviously work. But with the new large games including 8+ players, trips & quads could work just as well. Couldn't it?

I looked, but couldn't find a previous suggestion for this. It sounds simple, but I've long thought the Terminator & Assassin options suffer because of a lack of teamwork.
Myself and many players (especially clan players) enjoy the teamwork aspect of CC more than any other. So why not make team-terminator & team-assassin games?
If we could play as a team while directly targeting one or all other teams I think it would be fun.

I honestly think this would be a popular innovation.
The main benefit for the site would be to revamp the Terminator/Assassin gameplay and introduce a new way of earning those medals.
Also, it would shine a light on those two relatively forgotten styles of playing this game.

- Ya know Conch, I have along with many I suppose, have thought about this before, but never came to suggest it. Why? For one, I read all the time how people say there are already too many settings, I think that's bs, why not have many settings? Having many options is better than not enough, and what is too many when thousands of people play here, all with different likings.

- I love this idea, and glad you çame forth with it, Team Assassin and Terminator I believe would be most popular and probably over ride other settings. Nice Conch, +10!

Seems like a fun idea. I don't know how hard it is to code.

[riskllama]

+1
sounds like fun.

This has been suggested a few times. I'm not sure if it ever got very far, do a search and see what you can dig up.

If there was a four team dubs game how would it work? Would each player have their own unique target, or would each team have another team as a target?

Personally I don't think it would add anything worthwhile, at least not with other things that need prioritising first. Don't we have enough choice already?

[TheForgivenOne]

I remember seeing it suggested when I was a Suggs mod. I thought it got rather far.

This was back when it was at a cap at 8 players too.

[clangfield]

I can see it working (and giving interesting variation) with either having to eliminate any, or all, of a team, to get the points.

Well what I had in mind was teams targeting teams, so you would have to kill both or all 3 members to win.
Although thinking of it now it could work either way really. Quick-assassin for example, would be targeting one team member.
It is up to your team to kill one of yours while keeping your teammate alive.

As you say, we do have quite a bit of choice already, but the point here is not really creating anything new.
It is about combining existing game types to add a new dimension to both team games and assassin/terminator games, with a minimum of fuss.
