CTF would be easy.

Flags=Scientist/Hostages

Single Flag 3 Caps = 3 Scientists/Hostages.

Team one starts at the door or computer where hostages need to go(go=bases). Team 2 spawns next to the Scientists/ Hostages.

In order to cap a scientist you must click him (5 sec click or somethin) or free him from a prison for him to follow you. Travel powers don't get suppressed but you have to move at the speed of the Hostage so he doesnt lose you and stealth is supressed just like in pve.

High HP toons like tanks, scraps, brutes would now be useful in pvp. You can try capping more then one hostage/scientist at once as well.

In order to stop the team from capping once they have clicked a hostage/scientist is to 1. kill the capper 2. kill the hostage/scientist (which is buffed somewhere between scrap and tank hp and res. 3. taunt the hostage and click em 4. placate the hostage and clickem. 5. -percep the capper and click the hostage.

Hostage/Scientist can be effected by buffs and debuffs.

This makes more sense then heroes and villains running around with a flag.


Could also do this with a bomb instead. but then people would never be able to kill a tank who is holding the bomb.

MultiFlag CTF = 3 Hostages/Scientists on each side and 1 Computer or Door on Each side.

Objective: Take opposing teams scientist/hostage to your computer or door.


Other Games:
Territories
5 IoP's set up across a map. Team tries to gain all 5 IoP's each one increasing the the power of the team during the game giving them greater advantage. OR Could make it so everyone in map is exemped to lvl 1, everytime you gain an item of power your team's exemp lvl is raised. Team wins when all 5 IoP's are captured and everyone is killed at lvl 50.


Assault:
Destroy opposing teams Glowie.


* you could make it interesting by having the hostages having travel powers like fly pack, jump pack. this would allow flyer's in pvp.

I would definately want this.

/signed but maybe instead of hostages you can make the "flag" a weapon like the nemesis staff. You can hold it and its visible but you can still fight.

Now everyone keeps saying suppress travel powers then the teams are gonna consist of 1 tank/brute and 7 Earth/rad controllers spiking the movement speed of the enemies movement. I would just cut the movement speeds in half and disable all forms of tp.

I know but the 2 other sonic didn't say if they're caging or not so I guess we only have to complain about your's

Since only 1 person has listed their cager is there only 1 cager for this whole thing? *knocks on wood/ crosses fingers*

Due to @Death's Widow having to drop the event due to RL problems, and @Atom Bomb leaving for reasons I don't want to explain, Team Phase needs to postpone our entry until I get respones from players to fill my two spots. Currently we have:
@Phase Rad/Psi Defender
@M3zm3r1z3 Mind/Fire Dom
@Crit.Sting BS/Wp Scrapper
If you would like to join a healing corr or controller would be nice as well as any other AT. Send me a forum PM or ingame pm @Blood Spirit if you want to join. Thanks Phase

Most of my VG/SG doesn't play on test so I'm gonna make a team through this thread.

My global is @Blood Spirit on Normal Servers *have to reinstall test to find that global* send me an in-game EMAIL or forum PM with your in-game global and test global, your build you want to bring, and times you can practice.

If I do get a team this way I would like to practice 3-4 times for 1-3 hours this weekend & up coming week so we get a good feel for each other. O ya and ventrillo w/ mic would be nice.

You don't see Superman or Wolverine get two-shotted when they're in a climactic fight, or Magneto. The fights go on for a while (several panels or several minutes) with a LOT of back and forth.

Why can't my superhero, of whatever AT, be able to stand up to damage from another player? These should be epic fights where we throw each other down and pound and exchange blows for a while before a winner is declared.

Instead, what we have are hyperbuffed Blasters and Defenders two-shotting people (hell sometimes one-shotting off Inferno DoTs) and the rest of us playing catchup.

And there you have it. CoX cannot be a game of MMO PVP. It must be a game of MMO PVP for people who like the genre. Superfast non-stop jumping around and two shotting people is NOT what they want when they come to the game. Those who do like that can get it in a dozen other online PVP games that do it much better and with more balance. Superhuman combats need to SEEM like superhuman combats. Like the movies or like the comic books themselves. Both DC and Marvel have MMOs in the works. Compete or die NCSoft. It's that simple.


1- Slow things down. This does not look like anything we have ever seen in the source material. This looks like nothing we really WANTED to see.

2- Balance the playing field to the extent it is possible. It can never be perfect but this "why bother" alternative has led to nearly abandoned PVP zones.

3- Make story driven fights a reality. Zones are nice, but story driven, instanced battles with objectives (that are not corny, canned arena matches) are what is needed.

its comments like this that gave the devs the idea for suppression.
