Okay...so publicly I'm going to just say it.
Fellow blueberry and forum warrior Banjo Robertson is a F*#K!NG genius.
Read this thread: HERE
Now, imagine if someone did that. Also imagine if we had a game mode where the WP total was 5k. When you got 5k wp's, the game said thank you for playing and exited you from the game and showed you salvage and rewards like we do now.
It would start 16 v 16
It would get to 12 v 16
8 vs 10
6 v 6
3 v 3
2 v 3
1 v 1 - Last man standing?
This would be the most entertaining game mode to EVER be. It would be 100x more dope than acquisition and it would be unparalleled for a FPS.
It would be like Planetside 2 except it would end! Call it War Point mode or Tally Mode or who knows what.
WE NEED TO GET THIS GOING! Warlords 1.3-1.4? RATTATI, make it so!

Sort of, but like I said when you reach a warpoint total, you exit the game. It takes you out of it.
Think about it...how cool would that be? You're the first one out, everyone see's you got 5k wp with the quickness like the boss you are.
You're the last one out, you were the last man standing and went 1 vs 2 or 1 vs 1 or however with whoever and we've always wanted 1v1
If you're in the middle, you had a blast! I'd say no vehicles allowed of course, because people would spam tanks, get their kills and get out as fast as possible instead of actually playing the game of course.
OR MAYBE (EDIT)
Tanks and vehicles allowed so people could infinite respawn and AV them to death? Scratch that lol LEAVE VEHICLES IN :D

Excellent!
Although, I think a free for all should come first.

after the initial newness wore off, people would go back to playing them.
Ambush = get most kills.
Domination = Dominate
Skirmish = Teamwork
Acquisition = one team dominates
War Point Mode = All out fun zone, maybe have a leaderboard ranking of who's gotten the 5k warpoints the fastest?
That sounds like a game I really want to play, actually.

You could call it 'Logi Mode' since in most cases they would be the first kicked. Don't get me wrong, I'm into it, but an ok logi can generally out WP some of the best slayers.
A battle mostly without logis

Thanks to our passive SP system this would be a disaster. People would grab 150 WP and AFK until next week. |

after 150 points, you egt sp for every so many seconds in battle.. if you afk forever in a mode that requires 5k to get kicked.. you gain TONS of afk sp because the game won't end. Which is why this will never happen, and if people start abusing aquisition..they will change it, because that is exploiting no matter how fun it sounds. |

I was scrolling through looking for someone to point this out. If the last two guys are just redliner who don't want to fight, this battle will go on forever with no one ever finishing. Those two people will never get to 5000 WP.
What you would need to do, if we wanted to make sure it doesn't end, is have the WP total slowly go down. After the first person hits 5,000, there is a 5 minute window and then the WP needed goes down by 5 WP/Sec. After 1000 seconds (16 minutes and 40 seconds approximately), the WP total will reach 0 so even those who do not score a single WP will be booted after that time. It will probably take in the neighborhood of 10-15 minutes for the first person to hit 5000. Add in the 5 minute window + the countdown, and you are looking at a 30 minute battle.

Another idea: What about a REVERSE WP game? The game starts at 16 v. 16 and after 5 minutes, the LOWEST WP total on each side is kicked. After 1 minute, the next lowest is kicked on each side. This continues every minute until it is 1 v 1. They have 1 minute and the match ends. This will slowly eliminate the weaker players and force people to push for WP. Longer playing means more WP =more SP = more ISK.
So once you get to 18 minutes into the match, you have a 3 v 3 going with the highest WP from both sides battling it out. Then in the end the last person standing on each team gets a bonus. This is almost a free for all but you can work with teammates as you go, trying to stay above your buddies to earn those extra rewards.

That would truly be a last man standing mode +1

That is where I got my idea.
The thing with any of these types of gamemodes is you would also have to adjust the size of the map as the player count dropped. Leaving it at it's full size will make it really boring trying to find other people.
Here is how I would do it:
After the first 4 from each side are removed, the map shrinks by 25%
After the next 4 from each side are removed (leaving 8 v 8), it shrinks again by 25%
When it gets down to 4 v 4, the map shrinks by 25% one more time.
It then shrinks by 10% each drop thereafter.
After a drop in size, all players have 15 seconds to get into the new combat zone.
Now math people, don't come and say "That is more than 100%". I'm an English major but not that bad. The % is based off the remaining parts, not the total.
If I have a map that is 100 Meters squared and take 25% of it, that leaves 75 meters. The next time it shrinks, I'm not taking another 25 meters, I'm taking 25% of 75 meters which is 56.25. Then I'm taking 25% of that to make it 42.2. 10% of that is only 4 meters.
Scale this up to 300 meters squared and we are looking at 225, 168.75, 126.56, then 113.9, 102.5, 92.25, and finally 83. So at the last stage when it is 1 v 1 we have an area that is still 83 by 83 meters. That is big enough you aren't fighting in a box but it is small enough it forces engagement.
