Default Bombing Run

Idea, work with me. I've played this game and am quite impressed with the quality of such a simple game. However, I feel that this idea will greatly increase the allure of this game. Its called bombing run, its a 8 vs 8 game, on one side of the map is a city made of 3-4 buildings each being able to take 3-4 hits each, 8 of the people try to destroy the city the other 8 defend the city. The one who destroys the city fastest wins. If the city is defended bonus EXP is given. Please give me your thoughts and ideas, nay or yay. Whatever works but I think it would be great if we could another team oriented game style. There is also the idea of all 16 players vs a boss bot, a zepplin or a giant flying fortress team orientated games... Whaddya think?

its a good idea. Sort of like ct vs terrorist heh. Actually you can probably make a map like that in the current version of altitude. Have one base completely sealed off by walls, and one base open to attack. Put a time limit of like 10 minutes or something. Make it non neutral bomb that only spawns for the attacker. Someone should make a map like that.

sounds like the abomination I created in the old biplanes (death star map).

This idea is much better in theory than it is in practice.

Sounds cool, but I feel like it would be a better fit in another game. The fact that you never stop moving/flying sort of hinders the defensive strategy. Either you circle a certain area until the aggressors come into view, or you leave your position and take them out closer to their spawn point. If that's what you had in mind, then it could be fun, but this type of game mode would probably work better in a 1st or 3rd person shooter where you could literally set up strategic hold points.

It might be worth trying gameguard's suggestion and see how it plays though.

I know how you could make a preliminary map.

Just make up a TBD in map editor, but make one of the bases completely inaccessible. Just write instructions of how to play as the background. The only target would be the base, but you can just make it really big in map edit so its the size of a building lol. Get a bunch of people together and see how it goes.
