BF1942 Free for All

Due to the declining playerbase I was thinking of throwing up a server to be modded as a free for all deathmatch game mode. This would allow for more action even with less players.

How this would work:
*Everyone for themselves, no teams.
*Flags removed, spawn points remain
*Modified scoreboard to count teamkill as positive

Does a free for all deathmatch game mode sound interesting?

  1. Yes
  2. No

Good idea.  I have made a death match mode with a modified scoreboard (only one instead of two scoreboards since one team doesn't play).

You should make this a client side mod instead of a server side mod. You could do far more things that way. Don't forget you also need to remove the minimap as well as anything that you use to identify team mates. That also includes radio commands.

You also can't make team kill or friendly fire positive, because if you do, a player could simply suicide as much as he wants and he would get a point every time. Therefore the act of team killing should be neutral (0 points).

If you are good enough with the menu files, you could turn Team 2 (or the team that isn't used) into a spectator lodge where players go to spec the players in the match (Team 1, or whatever).
