Adding a new game mode Base Assault

–Adding the base assault game mode into enlisted–

So the game mode I am going to suggest originally comes from call of duty united offensive I played this game mode a lot when I was younger and I always loved it. I think it would fit very well into enlisted let me explain how this game mode worked and how it would work in enlisted.

–Objective and mechanics of base assault–

So basically each team starts with three bunkers in set locations across the map these bunkers have an outer shell with a certain amount of health that would be able to be destroyed by tanks, explosive packs, explosive anti tank weaponry and rockets.

Once destroyed you would be able to access the enemy bunker by going down into the basement. Once in the basement you would be able to set a charge, you would then have to wait a certain amount of time for the charge to detonate thus destroying the enemy bunker. During this time however the charge would be diffusible by the enemy team.

It would take 20 to 30 seconds for the charge to detonate after being placed. It would take 5 seconds for an attacker to place the charge.

Both teams would have two set spawns, you would not be able to spawn directly onto the bunkers you would also not be able to place spawn points too close to your own or enemy bunkers.

There would be no time limit or tickets, however either one of these could always be implemented but I am not sure if either one should be added or just left out entirely.

–Win and lose conditions–

The round would end when one team has lost all there bunkers, the team that has lost all there bunkers would lose other teams bunkers would be victorious.

–Player and tank limit for each faction–

Tank limit would be increased from 2 to 4 (before someone says this would be overpowered just remember how easy it is to kill tanks in enlisted)

Plane limit would be increased from 2 to 3

Player limit would be increased to 20

Perhaps jeeps and other light vehicles could spawn at certain intervals at there factions respective spawn points throughout the match to give players greater mobility on the battlefield.

–Maps–

Existing maps could be used I’m pretty sure any map with enough open space can be fitted with these destroyable bunkers in order for the game mode to work. It would be on a somewhat larger scale than the other game modes hence the proposed player and tank limit increase.

A bunker model would have to be made.

–HUD–

Icons could be integrated into the lower part of the HUD to keep track of what bunkers on each side are active and which ones are destroyed example below. Please not the doors are not usable

Bunker locations would also be indicated on a players minimap.

–Images of the bunkers–

here I have provided images from call of duty to give people an idea what these bunkers would look like if they were ever in enlisted.

Bunker fully intact

Bunker destroyed and now enterable

Bunker stairs leading down into the basement

Bunker basement where the charges are set to destroy the bunker

–Conclusion–

I think this game mode would be a fantastic fit for enlisted and add a relatively more interesting game mode other than just go to point and capture this or go to this point and defend that.

Also I have not seen this game mode in another game other than call of duty united offensive, during its time it was a relatively popular game mode.

I hope I have explained this all decently.

What do you guys think would this be a decent game mode to add into enlisted ?

Also damn the game has aged rather well considering it was made quite some time ago.

And yes i too remember the arty raining down while your in a bunker trying to plant a charge.

yea it was an era when games actually had large active mod community’s and when online multiplayer games had a lot more fun.

Kinda sad all that is gone now :frowning: online gaming was a lot better back then.

Problem, there is a game mode called assault already. It’s basically invasion, but you have to hold two points at once to move to the next set of points, and the defender can recapture the points.

sounds like it could be good if done right, but it should be toggleable whether you can be in the que for it or not (some ppl don’t have enough free time for a mode like that) and engi can’t build much inside the bunkers (sandbags and such shouldn’t i think but ammo crates would be fine prolly)

all your bases are belong to us

To defeat the bunkers, somebody must set them up the bomb.

Anyone knows if this is possible to mod it in the game now?
