Deathmatch: Typical everyone for themselves all out killfest.
Team Deathmatch: Same as Deathmatch only with 2 teams. Capture the Flag: The same as Team Deathmatch however the primary goal is to capture / defend the flag, as well as your teams base. Capture and Hold: This mode is just like "Domination" in Unreal Tournament. Basically there are a series of little beacons, just like those X's in UT, that you try to secure. The longer your team holds onto them the more your teams points rise. Hunter's Mode: This most is rather interesting. Each player in the game has a "soul" which is represented by a flag. When you die you drop that flag. The object is to pick up as many flags as possible and bring them to this central point on the map, called the Nexus. The more flags you bring into the Nexus the more points you score. In a typical Hunter's game there are flags....everywhere. It's complete chaos. Like Deathmatch on crack. |

Hunters really is the best. I asked the same question two years ago. I'd play Tribes again if we set up some Hunters games. | ||||
|
||||
then this next weekend we might have to do that.....

Yea in a lot of ways there should be more hunters servers up. Simply because Hunter's is more competative and exciting than just strait Deathmatch, and its a mode where your not reliant on a team to cooperate in order to have a competative match. Deathmatch is great for dueling and practice in many ways, however because of the large maps, kills take a touch more time to get. The added bonus of the flags and the Nexus fills this void creating a fast pace solo style environment. | ||||

Honestly, there is nothing more exciting than having 25 flags in your posession. Your down to 50% health, and your running furiously to the nexus as fast as you can, screaming "omg...omg...omg...omg...omg". It's like someone hands you a nuclear weapon, and if you can bring it to a certain location in time you get a million dollers, if not....it detonates. Thats the feeling I get whenever I have a huge amount of flags. | ||||

I think that it feels just like that last few seconds of a hack on Splinter Cell as the grenades is lobbed into the air and it's your only hope! Hunters always has and will rock. Let's get this party started. |

Whether you win or lose its an exhilerating experience. |

Sounds like I should start getting back into Splinter Cell: PT, too. I miss that kind of excitement and tension over an outcome in a game. Well, anyway, I hope there is indeed gonna be a tight TAA Hunters game this weekend on the game schedule, most def. I'm in. *
* - Much to my inconveinence, I'm gonna be doing some major backing up and reformatting of my computer this weekend, as well as replacing/installing some hardware and a new CD burner/DVD drive. This means that I'll be left out of ICS for a majority of the weekend, so for anyone that will happen to host a Hunters game, please allow modem connections! |

Yeah, I've been getting that very feeling several times today and it's a "!!!" kind of feeling, for sure. EDIT: Missed the other post... Sorry to hear that, Mytho - hope you find it before the weekend! |
