So let's pretend for a moment that dust let players control their own servers...
What kind of settings would you choose?
Here's an example form to give you an idea or two. Go ahead and copy / paste this form and fill it out or create your own. Be creative!
Final note: I know, personally, I'd love to offer a huge playlist of maps; but for the sake of making this easier, lets just pretend its one map only and if you want to go through the trouble of listing several maps with unique options on each... go right ahead. :D

Yes I know people could farm and play the system, I'm more interested in what people most want in regards to settings. This is more about what would make the current gamemodes more fun and not about actually owning a server.
Note: I presented this thread this way because it is a familiar format that is easy for people to participate in, again I don't actually want custom servers in game, I just want more variety in gamemodes. |

Private servers are a breeding ground for lag switchers, which is why we have to rely on a centralized server instead. The central server cross references data to ensure that any information received by the server from the client is consistent with what the server sees. This prevents lag switchers and hackers from ever having any effect on the game.
Okay already, yes I know what you're saying. I know already...this is about getting input on what settings people would like to see. Overall, this is a way of seeing how to improve the gamemodes. I already changed the title, and already put disclaimers in the main post...what more do you want! |

To be honest I was looking to use a title that would draw attention...obviously worked better than I thought; but in the wrong way. |

**Redline Restrictions

These are cool attributes I didn't think of. So basically if you stay in your own redline for 2 minutes you're kicked? Interesting. |

Again, I like the ones I didn't think of.
Changing weapon damage and movement speed would change the game so much.
I'd probably try a mode where all the weapons are a quarter as strong. It would be very hard for anyone to get a kill and would make things more interesting as far as trying to take an objective. |

So far, of the people that have given their own gamemode, people are tending towards making orbitals harder to get or gone entirely. Also most have opted for friendly fire being on and to have teamkills autokick you. Inactivity kicks are popular so far too.
I'd love to see more ideas, I'm sure there are some great ones just waiting to be posted.
What about gamemodes for squad vs squad? |

So I had some talks with some people and they really enjoyed the squad tournament of recent history.
I would still love to hear some squad based gamemode ideas.
Oh and I'm gonna update the original post for 1.6 |
