Any talk about the "mode" option?

[Traumkampfer]

Is there any word of what Tripwire plans to do about the "mode" option? I see that and can only think "what else are they even gonna do with that?" since KF1 was only one mode.

Only thing I could imagine is perhaps an endless mode that only ends when the party wipes, since a mission-style mode wouldn't work too well IMO.

Or really left-field would be a PVP mode, since there was a mutator for that in KF1. I wont say weather that was a good or bad idea.

KF1 wasnt only one mode

 

[Drassel]

The return of the ''objective mode'', with from what I've heard a tangent storyline.

 

[nejcooo]

Hopefully something PvP based (inb4 someone starts hating on me ). Would be fun to have human v human gamestyle where zeds would be just distrection

The objective mode from KF1 already mentioned by the trader and other characters that it will return to KF2:

There's a gun game mode made by modder in KF1:

Let's just hope the maker will make one for KF2.

According to some extra unused (for now) lines all the survivors have, there's most likely a "defend your castle" style game mode on the way where the ZEDS attack something and you have to keep them from destroying it.

Objective mode? When was this added to KF1, because I've never heard of that.
It wasnt a thing that existed when I last played KF1 xD

So apparently no one can make a custom game mode?
Did no one else make any other game modes for KF1 either?

Let's just hope the maker will make one for KF2.

That maker was one of the developers of Killing Floor. its hard to see it NOT come back. If not by him, then someone else will do it.

I would rather have it be a official gamemode though, that way more servers would run it.
Custom gamemode types were kinda rare in KF1.

Its one of the objectives of several objectives.

Its showed up during the summer of 2013... way late into KF's life time.
Objective mode is actually the successor of 2012's Alex's Story Mode

A "mission" type game mode, which still used the KFGametype was around since 2009!

And yes, you can uses mission based coding in KF2Gamemode. Example: KF-ContainmentStation

don't forget endless wave(s) mode

There was one custom gamemode in KF1 which was basically going through Resident Evil mansion i believe.
I played it a couple of times and it was pretty damn cool.
Puzzles and such.

I hope something like that comes to KF2!

 

[RuMan]

Aliens mode

Objective mode

Endless mode

all of that are mods from KF1

What do you mean OP?

 

[Jovial]

I hope for objective mode and a PvP sandbox (DayZ goes KF2) mode. Bring the hate all you want, but it would be a popular mode if the game had some suitable maps for it.

Not necessarily huge maps, just enough to give some added sense of isolation and dread for like 20 players.

 

[Traumkampfer]

To Ruman, I was specifically asking what Tripwire was going to create modes-wise, since them making a mode option for matchmaking implies that they plan on creating other modes themselves.

I've never heard of any of these mode mods before, the only mode mod I ever saw for KF1 was PVP mode. Last time I played KF1, was..... *Thinks* when they added the Santa's Workshop map, with the santa character.

It wasnt a custom gamemode, it was still the normal KFGameType.
It was a cool map until TW killed it during the End Of The Line update and any other mission based map prior to the update.

His point was that other game modes excited prior to TW making any other game modes.
When KF first came out, it still had a gamemode selection (via mutator). It wasnt until 4 years later that TW added another gamemode.

Your also implying that TW doesn't wanna see any custom game modes in their mod friendly (sorta) game.
Anyways, everyone answered your question. TW is bring back Objective mode and its going to be more engaging then before.

WTH 2010? So you basically hated the game then
lol did Pyro ruin the whole game for you?

 

[Traumkampfer]

I liked the game, just kinda stopped playing around then is all. Never came back to it since I had gotten a bit bored and moved to other games. I liked the pyro skin, used it until I finally stopped playing.
*Has 233 hours in KF1 though, according to Steam*

Aliens mode

Objective mode

Endless mode

Not sure what you mean by aliens but it could not be with those scary things from the movies unless TW get an official tie-in. Doubt that will happen but you never know. Maybe more a sci-fi mode. Or if you want proper Aliens then through custom-mods like in KF1.

Id def. like to see an Endless or see how long you can survive until you get bored.

Also a Kill as many as you can before team fail mode. Which wouldnt have waves.... just constant zed spawn and the ability to change weapons or get ammo on the fly.

Id also like a Randomized Trader mode where the trader only have x number of weapons and ammo available per wave.

Hopefully something PvP based (inb4 someone starts hating on me ). Would be fun to have human v human gamestyle where zeds would be just distrection

Are you suggesting MOBA-style gameplay? You know, with zeds walking on lanes and players fullfiling objectives to send bigger zeds against enemies etc. I think it's doable with KF

 

[xmrmeow]

They'll probably have objective mode maps in the future like in KF1
