Sorry for the repost, I deleted the other one and made this one. Forgot they use code so can’t use special characters.
My friend and I have been talking about having a bigger game mode that would be befitting of an MMO squad-based shooter but on a bigger scale. It would encompass the entire area of a campaign since the current maps effectively take place on the same map but sections of it.
It would be sort of like Conquest where there’d be multiple objectives. However, the match would last longer than a usual conquest match. It could be like conquest where controlling points drain your teams points or they could contribute manpower, aka tickets, that let your team spawn more. Once your team runs out of tickets the game is over.
Since the gamemode would encompass the entirety of a campaign map that would make traveling by foot less effective, which would bring us the addition of motorized units and/or mechanized units. These units could also tow field guns and artillery.
Since the battle would be so large logistics would be something to consider. The Engineer units would receive a logistics truck or other logistics vehicle which would allow them more supplies to build with. It would also likely be necessary to increase their build limit to make use of the supplies and make the engineers more effective.
The engineers could also receive new buildable items for this gamemode such as ammo depots for tanks/vehicles and a field repair station for tanks. The field repair station would allow a tank crew to repair their tank even if they no longer personally have tools on themselves. However, the station would not auto repair the tank when near it, the tank crew would have to exit the tank as they currently do and manually use the station themselves. You could also do repairs via a logistics truck only.
I don’t really have an idea on how they plan on making this game at the end date since it’s still being made. However, in case people wish to see more content like this, I thought I might throw the suggestion out and see how people will respond.
