New Game Mode Suggestion

Im suggesting a mixture of AAS and Insurgency. I got this idea from watching Tour of Duty on the Military Channel. The teams would be like in Insurgency with 1 Coalition Army and 1 Insurgency. The objective would be to go to specific points through out the map and secure them i.e: Crash Site, Market, Rally Point whatever floats the PR-Devs boats. The insurgents would spawn at random "mini-caches" around the map and try to impede upon the US/Brit from reaching said location. Also hunting down these "mini-caches" would be sort of a secondary objective. Each would give a ticket increase of 10 or something and prevent Insurgents from spawning there again. The heavy weapons (ie:RPGs, Snipers, PKM) would be available at the key points and "storage houses" through out the map. Also to prevent the US/Brit team from going to the next area to cap rite after the current 1 any US/Brit personnel would get the countdown of death. I think this might allow for convoys systems to established in PR. Srry if this has been suggested before but when i typed in game mode i got like 40 pages of posts and didnt really want to look through all of them.

Well i think this looks quite good, different, and brings best of both really.

I like new additions to games but this is way too simular of both modes. If a new mode was added I would personally prefer it being something completly new and nothing like the others to get a fresh new game-play going.

Something like on one of those Chinese maps where the chinese had forward objectives already captures and a big fort base that was hard to capture. Whenever the British captured the forward objectives they were locked and the Chinese couldn't take them back. Afterwards the main objective was to take the three objective points in the Chinese Fort.

Because of the map detail, the fort being large and on this large hill. It made it very difficult for the British to just storm it. With a good defense it was some of the most intense fighting I have ever encountered in PR.

Assault and Defend maps, where one team assaults and one team has to only defend the objectives. That would be a fun game mode IMO or just add more maps like that chinese one.

No its pretty realistic that the missions dont go sthraigth as tehy do now, more objectives fo rboth AAS and Insurgency would be great. For example then in a 4km map you could have sub objectives as stationary AA's you should take out, ofc they should be random where they are put like caches, and you need inteligence or do a recon mission to take it down. That would hve been great.

AFAIK there is older Russian AA's in A-stan, so it would have been pretty epic if something like that could have been implemented.

Ofc it shouldnt just be AA's but crashed choppers, secondary flags all sorts of objectives that occur on a mission/battle that will give different kinds of bonuses, like as MEC you capture a place that is activated after a certain objective is done (x time in the battle, xflag taken, x tickets lost) you will get a one time reinforcment of let say two apc's or a tank. On the other hand if NATO forces takes it down it will be no reinforcements, but maybe a sligth increase in tickets. The objectives should be random, and hopefully sometimes there will be none sometimes many sometimes a few, it will give maps a certain randomness and it will never be the same round.

Is insurgency just straight?
But if they make it and put it in game,i can see if i like it.
If i do,i will play it,if not,i wouldnt do it.
Its just more complicated to read a game mode than play XD

I like it. Could be a much better way of doing insurgency/taliban imo.

In afghanistan they are not really looking for caches primarily are they? Trying to secure ground/new outpost locations and kill taliban, aside from the hearts and minds of course.

What about a litte suggestion in a suggestion:A game mode where the point is to capture outposts,and find some weapon places,destroy them,and defend outposts and kill Taliban.
And build FBs.

Well.

I think that kind of is the idea really?

its always hard to tell if a gamemode works out well, but it sounds really not bad, but actually I've got to admit, that I think gamemode wise the devs should focus on bringing the objective mode into the game.
