New game play mode- Something like VIP

I know alot of players are sad the VIP mode is gone, and i was thinking about it today. A new kind of game play popped into my head.

Imagine if you will, the old Albrashar VIP game mode, but with the current map of Albrashar. The US or Brits (although US would be better, explained later) would spawn at the airport and VCP for the first 5 min, and the insurgents spawn on their RPs all over town.

The VIP (Heres the twist) is a member from the insurgents, who needs to get out of palace and into a hiding place someplace. This could be in the village, or out north east from the VCP across the river or north of oil fields, etc, but not in the middle. The objective of the US/Brits is to arrest the VIP, not kill. A kill will result in some sort of severe punishment (ticket deduction or time penalty). The VIP must not get to the extraction point.

But heres the other twist. The US/Brit gets intel like in the current version of Albrashar on where the extraction point could be so they dont know exactly where it is. Also once the VIP dies by himself or by the US/Brit, the extraction point changes to another location, just like the spawning of the new cache. There could be 2 extraction points at anywhich time.

Also, the US/brits would not be allowed near palace. So as to not cheat and just spot the VIP right away and track him.

The VIP would not be allowed to mount any technicals nor wield a weapon. Could make the VIP to look like a civilian, or the VIP skin could be a civilian, it would keep the US/brits on their toes.

(damn this is long)

The reason why i want the US is for the Littlebird. The copilot can have the camera and track moving vehicles, relay coordinates of enemy troops, like the real thing when finding insurgents in Iraq. No armor would be allowed, only jeeps, transports.

So this is almost kinda, sorta, but not really, like cops and robbers...

If the Devs like this.. hell, i would sleep with all of you.


Whatcha think? :-)
(not the sleeping part...)

I wouldn't mind playing some like extraction, or VIP, those modes sound fun, why aren't they in the game?

Its the same thing as the extraction mode. Just using insrgents and not US/GB. So I vote this into already suggested.

Well yeah the VIP would be a kit you either request or its one u pick from the list like we do now. But i really think that making the insurgents the VIP and not killing him would make this ALOT more interesting, a bit more hard. The details the DEVs could work out, or i could help them think it through. But if they are in the works of something new, then im just going to sit here with my legs crossed hoping they come up with something better than i have.
