I was thinking about some maps i would make in the map editor when i suddenly wished Soldat had this game mode. I checked the list and there was only one suggestion simliar to it. The other idea just popped out of my head one morning.

King of the Hill:
One team or a single player has to hold their position in the "Hill" area for as long as they can, then the other players or teams have to try and take over the hill and hold their postion on it if they succede.

A way you can do this is by adding a point to the player or team score for every second that he is in teh area with no other enemies also on the hill.

Greed Mode:
I realized how much i liked sonic teh hedgehog and one thing i hated baout it was hwen you were hurt, you lose all of your rings. So i thought that a greed mode should be included with sodlat. What would happen is every 5 or 10 seconds a coin or some kind of token would spawn in a random position, then teh players would have to fight to get the most tokens and they would lose all of theirs if they died. But also a good idea is to make the player move slower and not jump as high for the more tokens he has, that way it would be balanced and one player couldn't round up all teh tokens and go camp because he would be too easy to kill, and the people with no tokens or very little, would be fast and be able to earn the spawned tokens faster than the guys with lots of tokens. (i hope i made that one clear, and sorry for all of the typos, im a bad typist)

I hope these suggestions will be considered....

King of the Hill is a bad joke for me. [Don't ask why. And I quess U should.]

That second is interesting but I don't really like it. Just not my style. Sorry.
But could be cool.

tokens don't belong in soldat...

you can do 2-team king of the hill by having both flags in the middle of the map, red and blue bases in their usual places, both flags heavily fortified. tada.

King of the hill: an obvious game mode that im surprised hasnt already been in the game.

Greed mode: I'm sorry, but this would just be totally unnacceptable. (name is also not very catchy)

well the name can change, and teh tokens can be something symbolic, like amo packs or flags.
And i have tried this game before, i made somethign just like it in Game Maker using a platform engine and everything you would find in sodlat (except like teh weapon speeds and advanced stuff like taht) and it actually turned out pretty good (except for a few bugs here and there)

If you would liek to know more about Game Maker, go here:[URL]

I liked the second one, kind of like coin mode in SBM. When you get damaged, coins come flying out, so the other player needs to get them. If you die, you lose 50% of your stash.

King Of The Hill as in that "real" screen shot of 1.2.2 by hitman.

Enough of that.

Anyways, that screen of 1.2.2 is fake, and Fluffy is wrong about KOTH being put in soldat. The tolken collecting thing would be too iffy with soldat because you die so often, and you would barely be able to collect that many coins.

how exactly to do you get posting to a thread that is 5 days old, bumping an old thread? Not all of us check the forums everyday.

On the other hand. I like the first idea even if it has been brought up multiple times. Second one, is not Soldat. Can't really give any ideas to maybe make the idea better.
