Territory, Countdown, or Firefight?

[Merin Redplate]

Which game mode do you think you'll like the most?

Territory Mode: This is the original gamemode that made Red Orchestra famous. Attack, Hold and Defend objectives within the set timelimit, or until one side runs out of reinforments.

Countdown Mode: Countdown mode is a single life gametype that is governed by a short countdown timer. Players will have to attack or defend a series of objectives, but with only one life per objective. If the attackers capture the objective, all players respawn and move to the next objective. If they do not capture the objective before the timer expires, they lose. Maps will have "key objectives" which when taken will allow the attacking team a single respawn on a later failed capture.

Firefight Mode: Red Orchestra's version of team deathmatch.

Good renewed classic gametype Territory and that Countdown one.
The MP/Coop campaign might beat these ones tho

I will certainly play the old school Territory, but i'm also very excited about countdown which could be something really nice, especially since its a twist on a single life gametype and because it could cater to a lot of competitive players/clans.

Firefight would be my last choice even if it could be fun at times but to me i've a hard time seeing regular tdm in an Red Orchestra title.

I voted for the two that aren't Countdown.

I got thoroughly sick of single life gameplay in AA. Far too campy and it attracts e-peen elitist types that type pwnt and other such tripe in the chat ad nauseum

But it's the campaign mode you haven't mentioned that I am most looking forward to.

Edit: I'll try countdown of course and I hope I'm wrong

 

[Ralfst3r]

I think I'll stick with classic territorial gamemode.

Territory

A game mode so awsome, it was the only mode in ROOST...which I never got bored of playing in all those years

 

[Forssen]

I'm a bit afraid of the speed in countdown. Feels like it will be a repeated grenade rush. Territory however can't go wrong.

 

[baff]

Co-op for me please.

Multi-player campaign is my favourite for PvP.

 

[husbert]

territory for me :IS2:


i played insurgency mod.
it was something similar to countdown and on public server most people joined defenders, as defender it was much easier and you could live much longer

 

[REZ]

I will definately be playing the classic territory mode. The multiplayer campaign sounds right up my alley too. I've always wanted longer, contiguous battles in RO.

I'm a competitive/clan player and the Countdown/Firefight modes sound like the last thing I'd ever want to play. To me they dont really belong in RO, so I wont be playing either of those gametypes.

I for one think Countdown will do wonders for the community. Some of my favorite RO moments came from when my team has run out of reinforcements. It's intense. I actually feel fear when I see that German round the corner with his MP40. I hit the ground when that MG starts peppering my position. I know I only have seconds to live, so I make everything count. Every movement, every action, every shot - it all matters incredibly. It's amazing how visceral things become, knowing any moment could be your last. There's so much tragedy as your team valiantly defends the last cap, unable to hold the tide of enemies as they swarm over your position. In the last moments, I actually care about the lives of my teammates. Without them, it's one less person to fight with, to hold off the impossible. The last moments are always the fiercest. The finest, and, through victory or defeat, the last moments are always the proudest.

I know exactly what you mean! Well, I did, but sadly I'm far too old and fond of wine for that now. I much prefer long drawn out affairs where I can keep my blood pressure on an even keel

All three guys!!!!!!!:is2::is2::is2:

Territory and Countdown. Doubt I'll be playing much of firefight. Multiplayer campaign is what I'm most excited for.

 

[VariousNames]

I would personally prefer either gi-****ing gantic cap-defend maps with tons of objectives (DH style) or insanely long countdown timers.

I always feel like the Ost timers are pushing me to charge balls-to-the-wall towards the trench in the middle of an MG crossfire and I feel like a dumbo trying to spear assault troopers with my bolty rifle.

A little slower pace on a handful of maps would be peachy. Vanilla gametype is swell. TDM would be weird. I personally don't like CS style 1-life maps.

The best kind.



Voted territory and countdown.

 

[Landrik]

Really looking forward to Multiplayer campaign and staying along with territories. Firefight would be good for tank battles.

 

[Fedorov]

Both Territories and Countdown seems fun.

Not really interested in Firefight. I just don't see the incentives to play it, since killing the other team is something that you are gonna be doing anyway in the other two modes.

Edit: Thinking about the possible appeals of Firefight, I the only one I could come up with, is that "IF" it retains the squad system of the other modes; the maps could be used in a sandboxy way (think Killing Floor). Where squads would attack/hole up in unlikely places, and fight to control areas that would never see action in the objective based modes, without having to worry about the map progression and the objectives captured. That, and enemy attacks from unpredictable directions.
