[Question] Advance and Destroy?

LekyIRL · Post by **LekyIRL** » 2008-02-14 09:46

So I was watching Ross Kemp in Afghanistan(great program) and it got me thinking about making an Afghan map.
After a while I came up with the idea of a sort of "Advance and Destroy" game mode.
Put simple,this game mode whould be a combination of the Advance and Secure and Insurgency gamemodes.
My plan was that every CP would have a cache attached to it.When the cache was destroyed the CP would be taken.

There are two ways the cache could be set up:

#1-Basic
The caches spawns in a fixed position(the same place everytime).They are attached to various CPs(one for each CP),when a cache is destroyed the CP is taken.

#2-Complex
The caches spawn in random loctions inside a certain radius(e.g If there was a "Village" CP a cache would spawn somewhere inside the Village).
When a cache is destroyed the CP is taken.

The reason I put this in the Community Modding Forum was because it seemed simple enough(I don't care,right now,if you don't like it)so my questions are:
Could this be done?
How could it be done?
Could I do it?

could probably do that with scenario mode...

Sounds very interesting. Could redefine the whole insurgency thing.

Like it, sounds simple enough to implement

Shouldn't be a problem to do that cause some vehicles spawn only if a flag is "active". That's possible.

very cool, but maybe instead of insurgency part duex, maybe make it a regualar army battle? like us army must move in and to capture a point they must destroy a control tower or control building or something.

I think waiting for 0.8 (and scenario mode) to be released is a good idea. I'm sure there will be a lot of added content which will be good for mapping, new statics etc. I'd say just keep mapping, try out some concepts, but keep this in the back of your mind for the months until 0.8 comes out.
