I think it would be fun and crazy... COD / Modern warfare players may take fancy to the title, as well ...
Everyman for himself; with vehicles; in a well sized map
I think it should be a mode that is, a non-corpmode... That you can get skill points but not have to spend any ISK to purchase drop-suits with.
That way, it could help the balancing out gap between noobs and advanced players.
It breaks the common routine of needing to be goal orientated.... LETS YOU JUST KILL EVERYTHING.
Many gamers like deathmatch... look at COD(People play that same style OVER AND OVER AND ON THE SAME F^&*%&$ MAPS) .
Most importantly it breaks the real routine of Story dialogue, contracts, co-op forced gameplay. Routine can be boring and become condescending when its the same thing over and over... Having the deathmatch in place would allows a side step break from that routine... An have a fast paced first person shooter. ONLY one will be the best! |

Doesn't make sense lore wise, why would an NPC (or an EVE player) just hire 1 merc? This game is an MMO where we fight over territory for NPCs, for EVE Online players, and for ourselves.
When "Gladiator Arena" E-sports come, modes like this will make sense: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=36038&find=unread
Not really sure what you mean by "condescending" in this context, maybe you're using the word wrong. |

Condescending means.. Repetitive.
I think it would be an awesome, non-contract mode. I believe at E3 they mention they were going to have a instant battle, game that isn't really contracted games but... Just something to jump into and start playing ... As like what we have seen in the beta.
I think a deathmath, non-contract, non-isk wasting mode would be fun. It would be a break from the real portion of the game, Strategic FPS... An a fun run-and-gun mode.
Besides new people would be joining the game constantly... Those new players will have a MASSIVE skill gap. Having a deathmatch mode. That everyone could play would help integrade noobs with the advance. Being able to still acquire skill points, but not waste any isk. |

Thats not what condescending means, it means stooping to someone else's level, or looking down on them. I think what you're talking about is battles in high security (low risk space) games where you can jump into battles with Instant Battle matchmaking, but those are still contracts from NPCs. You might be right, but please link your source. As far as I know, Gladiator Arena was the only thing being announced which non-contract battles will happen.
That being said, i want a deathmatch mode, as well as a variety of crazy modes that don't necessarily fit with contracts. I don't think those have a place lore-wise until we can fight for sport in Gladiator Arena though (coming 2013). |

Maybe if free roam on maps that don't currently have a battle is added, death match would just happen as randoms bump into/scan down each other. Like lowsec pvp roams, pirates hunting people running missions/mining. A emergent gameplay from a sandbox element.
Also, npc corps could have training area only permitting militia gear in a death match format. maybe have a small gym fee to play instead of a payout at end. |

LOL .. what a condescending way to deal with the word condescending. It's a metaphorical word describing how superior persons are decending their social ladder in a pretentious humble way to "side with the masses" or inferior persons ( at least in their opinion).
But concerning the lore of FFA: There is talk about Exploration maps sided next to the districts we fight for to be explored in PVE style which also should be available for FFA. The Deathmatch FFA with instant jump-ins on the other hand will come with the gladiator update. |

Free-for-all would break that condescending feeling you'd get with the game. The game has that sense of condescend... `If you screw up... You spending chedda for it.
Deathmatch would be the `breathe of fresh air... The break in the redundant, routine in life... To play on closed maps off of eve or a arena on eve...

You do realize that if you can't lose anything, as in, there is no risk whatsoever, then everyone will just bring things WAY beyond their means. Plus, many things will become useless without squad support, like AV weaponry, indirect weapons like Mass Drivers, and vehicles. Seriously, wait over 15 seconds in one place, your gonna be shot to swiss long before the Bolas lands.
Also, condescending, as used properly in a sentence.
'Damn, these people sure are taking a condescending tone when talking to this Xiree fellow.'
Plus, if all you do is use generic, idiotic insults to respond to anyone who critics you, it will only be a matter of time before this devolves into a hate post. Free-for-all is already a sore target, and you aren't doing it any favors. |

Omg... I'm trying to help you out because you completely misuse a common simple word, and you react to me with hostility? How can you look up the definition, yet not notice you are the one using the word completely wrong? You don't know what demean means either *facepalm* If you don't know how to use a word its fine with me; English isn't my first language, so it might not be yours either, but to be so rude and confident about your incorrect knowledge is pretty silly. In the interview you linked, they said contracts can be from computer controlled corporation (NPC corporation) for simple "pick up and play", or player/EVE corps. There was no mention of battles without contracts. |

If you don't want to lose money, don't use up more than you'll make in the battle. Example: If you use a 20k fit, and die 2 times, then you lose 40k. If the battle gives you 100k reward however, you make a net gain of 60k (100k - 40k = 60k). Just make sure your losses don't surpass your gains. You can also just use militia gear, and starter fits. Militia gear won't be unlimited use for long, but they will be so cheap that you will still be able to afford them with no problem even if you do extremely terribly. The starter fits will always be unlimited. |

And I'd rather you didn't use that attitude on me when you see my post saying that that's not what it means. I'm a writer and have studied creative writing and English literature for a number of years now and, in fact, still do continue to study into my 20s.
Condescending means for one to act in a superior way to one other, looking and speaking down to another person. Here's an example: my girlfriend spoke to me with a condescending demeanor
Repetitive means for the repetition of (a) task(s). Here's an example: These day-to-day tasks at my office job are very repetitive.
Hope this helps.
On topic though, I think free for all would be silly in my opinion unless it's only a temporary game mode for an event, like E-Sports. There's no team work, just a bunch of gamers running around a virtual battlefield wanting to be crowned king - COD and BF3 to the definition, I should think. It could very well ruin the whole co-operation requirements Dust tried so very hard so far to introduce to an FPS game of our sad, little century. Very much out with the old and in with the new I think |

Organizing free-for-all battles would make no sense unless it's set up by players for entertainment.
However, with serious mercenary gameplay, remember that in the full release, friendly fire will be on, and some players would pay big money for you to disrupt a battle, turning it into (near) free for all. |

this is a a MMO FPS if you want a COD mode or any of the kind of modes go play COD. CCP should focus on what they are currently doing at the moment and making the game unique maybe not original but at least unique this is after all a Team based game not free for all team based PVP. i for one don't mind lossing items as long as they can be replaced after a few matches which isn't a big of a deal specially when you play at certain peak hours like in the afternoon/night time (happy hour Sorta speak kicks in then) that way you can make good SP and ISK . |

I really don't think that there's such a demand for DM these days. TDM is basically the minimum. More advanced modes like what TF2 has or Unreal Tournament has end up being pretty popular by comparison. Plus, DM has a pretty major random chance component to it, and with deaths costing you money, I think most people would avoid it like the plague. Imagine if every time you spawn in a game, it's like spawning in Ambush, only you're 2x as likely to spawn in front of guys trying to kill you. |

Great to see some of this enthusiasm towards free for all... I've seen its been already appointed that Deathmatch may be a small past time into Dust514. For all that acclaim, I'm not a OCD --err-- COD person. COD sucks ... I like Battlefield. I often wish Battlefield had a Deathmatch as they did implament a standard Team-Deathmatch.
@Zero > I've used condescending correctly, in numerous ways. I don't mind the trolls... How could you be bothered by anyone, who is needing attention like they do? With their multile... Alternative... Personality / User names ... Who would really care what a moron like that thinks?
I've insulted? What insults... I've not condescended to trying to evaluate usages of a word, to attempt to degrade anyone... As you and a few others have. <<< That isn't a insult. It is a characterization of you.
@ KAGEHOSHI > This post is not about word usage, but yet you keep posting about it trying to insist I'm using it wrong and as you and your pals, troll my post... To only break its topic into a word usage issue . I've used the word correctly numerous of times. I even explained it for you, several of times. If you can't understand my example and merriam-webster.com example. I believe you are lost, my little firend .
The only thing you have "helped" is an consistent attempt to make this a argumentative post. Yet you are failing, so much at it.
I am not worried about dying in battle. I just think, the game should have a deathmatch. When you die in game... You have that small, (*&% I HAVE TO buy more dropsuits. I only buy a few at a time... An it gets real tedious and condescending to need to STOP and buy some more dropsuits. The deathmatch will be a more instantaneous, quick gameplay... You wont have to constantly get aggravated from losing those points.
@Thomas COD sucks... Battlefield is better but I think Battlefield should have a Deathmatch... Not just squad DM or Team Deathmatch.
@Anyone else who gots a problem with understanding the word condescending. I posted a link to merriam-webster dictionary. Feel free to understand its definition or attempt to at least. If Merriam-webster can't help you, I fear no one can. They also have a children dictionary, as well.

Nothing in the dictionary you linked said anything about "repetitive", only confirmed that the word means lowering yourself (or descending) from a higher status to a lower status. It says it right there on the page that you linked, and you don't see it even though you're the one who linked it? This is the definition you linked: "to descend to a less formal or dignified level" (like i said) "to assume an air of superiority" (exemplified by looking/talking down to someone, like GarryKE said) No mention of "repeating", or "repetitive". I previously told you it was to stoop to someone else's level, and look at the synonyms on the page you listed: "Synonyms: deign, stoop" Consider the components of the word condescend. Con + descend, and descend means to go down, or lower. Just by looking at the word, it should be obvious that it has something to do with lowering, and not repeating.
My posts weren't just about your incorrect word use, it was also about your completely uncalled for rudeness. When someone tries to tell you the definition of a word, why do you have to resort to insults?
I gave you advice on how to not loose fittings, and how to still make net gains despite losing fittings.
I also explained to you why we can't have it outside of Gladiator Arena, but you wouldn't listen. It does not fit with the contract system, and nothing in the interview you linked mentioned anything about game modes not based on issued contracts, only that some battle contracts will be from computer-controlled NPC corporations like I already told you. Others who disagree already gave you explanations, just scroll up and read.
Its like you didn't even check what the sites said before linking them. I get it! you must be a troll . It all makes sense now, the ridiculous ideas, the completely misunderstanding of sources that you link, linking sources that prove yourself wrong, resorting to insults when someone disagrees with you. It all makes sense now, you had me worried someone could really be that ridiculous for a while. I'm done here, and congratulations on the trolling skills. |

This thread makes me hope that CCP makes the arena a literal Coloseum, in effect a virtual ghetto where we can consign the CoD kiddies to fight for our amusement. Forever would they be hardlocked in the arena, unable to leave it even after shutting off their PS3 or deleting their character, only when one rose above all others would he be allowed back into the society of New Eden. Assuming of course he professed his sins of having been a CoD kiddy. Unfortunately there's no lions for us to throw them to... le sigh. |
