Freck Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Hello everyone! The High Staff team are looking at bringing back Battalion v Battalion! However, we do not want it to be the same two game modes as last time so we are asking you for ideas! Some ideas that we have come up with: - Time Trials of a CIT run or Dupe - Build Battle on event server - Roleplay challenge - Movie Scene re-enactment - Dodgeball tournament - A BARC relay race Would people be interested in perhaps smaller weekly/biweekly competitions with smaller prizes each week instead of a grand tournament? Would people be interested in having it so you can choose your teams instead of having it just stuck to battalions? Ideas do NOT have to be GMOD focussed, if there is a popular game that is FREE and could pose as an exciting game mode for BVB then let us know below!

Jayarr Posted March 22, 2022 Developer Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Two things I recommend for this BvB season: 1. Capitalize on handing out the promised rewards (if any are promised) 2. Don't make it run longer than it should. Months on end of the same event knocks a mofo out Edited March 22, 2022 by Jayarr 1 Report Link to comment
Bacta Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) I have always been a super competitive person so i would love the idea of a BVB focused on being the actual best battalion challenging all battalions with the help of HC/High Staff to ensure no bias, stuff that will challenge and help all battalions, most recruits, most quality roleplay, the only issue is i can see it to be the most toxic thing ever. I really do like the idea of having HC way more involved with the battalions, maybe the first round will be regiment V Regiment and then it goes to the finals, if it can be balanced enough with a good enough GM, imagine a round where you have to do a basic deployment with the least amount of kills/health lost. PVP rounds, i feel its the easiest way for the event to get toxic as the battalion gets blamed, i would really want to see a BVB with no PVP at all, having them fight to be the best quality is a much better idea for me personally. Imagine a 2 week heated competition of seeing the best battalion. Edited March 22, 2022 by Bacta Link to comment
Ccmonty Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 Supremecy: same way it works in battlefront. 5 command posts, take all of them to advance to the enemy base, if they succeed they win and if they fail it resets to neutral with 2 posts per team. 1 Report Link to comment

Do we let people pick teams because that would be insanely unfair, if pull volunteered names from hats how will we know everyone will turn up and how will we know those people will willingly work together Battalions, with all their flaws, provide the best basis for teams as they hold prior structure that hold them together and somewhat consistent numbers we can trust to turn up. so players based only would really only work for non-team choices which very much limits what we can do with BvB not saying your idea is wrong it just seems hard to implement Edited March 23, 2022 by Comics The most fuckable person on Synergy Star Wars RP~ Link to comment

I found that you can use gravguns to throw heavy props that can kill/knockout players and that kind of works for a dodgeball type thing (during a box-rp event a while ago they gave everyone gravguns and several people were accidentally killed in the process of throwing boxes).

So I remember we spawned in helicopter grenades and had everyone get grav guns. We lined up and went on the count of ten and just chucked the grenades at each other. 1 Report - Your Local Headass, Bruise.

Katy Posted March 25, 2022 Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 Choosing teams/volunteering out of a pool doesn't sound good. Battalions typically are already made up of mostly friends so I don't think it's necessary to further that with one really OP group. Using a map for PVE would be cool also instead of a CIT run or a dupe. Just spawn some droids in an area or something and have people clear it out. Also can there be a tf2 match please (serious). And for the movie re-enactment challenge can the scenario be the Joker and Batman interrogation scene from the Dark Knight (also serious) 1 Report Former: Rancor PVT | Special Operations SGM | Jedi Astromech | Guardian | B2 Battle Droid Link to comment

What would they be roleplaying? Scenes related to their bat? What is the criteria? Will people lose to the guys that can do the really good clone voices? - Dodgeball tournament Sure, it's different. - A BARC relay race As long as it isn't on a map with iffy hitboxes and the BARCs have higher than normal health, why not. But it probably won't be fun if all the contestants burn out in 20 seconds because they rammed each other taking a turn too hard. Just placing my thoughts on each in red so the post isn't giant.

Finn Posted March 25, 2022 Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) Honestly, don't do BvB. Let that tradition finally die. I like the idea of doing non-pvp stuff for contests, or even doing other games, but don't call it BvB, don't even group them by battalions. The last 3 or 4 BvBs have turned the entire concept into arguing, elitism, and alienation of battalions, which is the opposite of what big events like these should be doing. Having this by 'anyone can create a group' would solve so many of the issues that BvB has.

I don't think anyone will be upset at like 212th if they have a guy who races BARCs better than some guy in SOBDE.
