4Way Siege Concept for Pugs

**SilverWing** · 06-11-2013

4Way is a multi-team based gametype that is played with 4 teams (Red, Blue, Green, and Gold). In the present version of 4Way Siege, one team can only win if all the other teams Base Cores gets destroyed. Also, all the eliminated players from the eliminated teams would switch over to the other teams and play on. On the public server this gametype has great success but when it comes to Pugs it has always been put down. Why? Because of the fear that the team with the best chance of winning would get eliminated first and would be a pointless game for them. So the Global Siege Admins (Convict, Moskva and SilverWing) have come with an idea that would make this a lot more fun and interesting for everyone that wants to 4Way Pug. Just a reminder that this concept is for Pugs and might not be used in public due to the settings that this concept asks for.

The 4Way Siege Concept

- In the new 4Way, one team can only win if they inflicted 33% damage to each enemy Base Core.
- If a team takes 33% damage from each team, this team will be eliminated and will be either kicked out of the server OR be sent into spectator. And server will be set to 9 slots and after 6 slots if another team gets eliminated. (Reason why it won’t be good for public)
- Once a team has dealt 33% damage to each team, that team will be declared the winner.
- Teams cannot repair their Base Cores
- Everything else will be the same!

How Would This Concept Be Better For Pugs?

So the problem with the present version of 4Way Siege is that all the teams will come to attack one certain team and eliminate them from the game. With the new version, it’s a race to see who can deal 33% damage to each core. So if a team does get 3v1’d in the beginning, after one team deals 33% damage they would stop and attack another team because it’s pointless for them to keep 3v1ing because they are missing the opportunity to deal damage to the other teams (It’s a race). When this transition happens it will slow down the game and let the team that got 3v1’d to get back into the game.

HUD (Just an Idea)

The HUD will display extra information. On the HUD where the Base Cores are displayed, it will display 3 lines beside each core. These lines correspond to the other team’s core and display how much damage you have dealt to that team determined by the length of the line.

For example:

(The core health to the left of it)

How are The Teams and Maps Going to be Picked?

4 Captains will be randomly selected, meaning no one can request to be a captain. This is so that teams don’t get stacked. Red captains will go first and pick one player, then Blue (1), then Green (1) and then Yellow will get to pick two players. After Green will pick one player, then Blue (1), and Red will get the last pick. Teams might be reset if it gets stacked so please think before you pick.

Team will then go to the server and wait for all the teams to get in and vote for a map on the 4Way section of the map vote.

Good concept , needs to be tested several times before it gets official on pugs.

Also the bars on the right of core, would they display numerics too like if i'm in green would it display that our team has made 23% dmg to red, 14% to blue, 9% to yellow etc?

It can be done, but then there would be to much stuff on the HUD. You can tell how much damage your team has done to a team by the length of the bar. If the bar was half way gone, you will know you did 16.5% damage.

you'll still have teams ganging up on one team to eliminate them each time

I dont see how this changes anything

or maybe im missing something

Like I said, its a race. Why would you 3v1 a team if your not going to get anything out of it after you dealt the 33% of damage. If your team put pressure to another team, the teams that are still trying to destroy the team that got 3v1 are going to be behind. They will have to fall back and defend the base more and decrease the pressure that the 3v1 team was having. During this time, the team that got 3v1'd will start to recover.

with the core not being able to be repaired, it will be more of defense style game.

It won't be a more defense style game lol, now there's only 3 people on a team => you have less income => super protectors get built slower => offensive players have an easier time hitting core = > defenders can't reply (core can not be repaired)

However I always wanted to pug 4-way, and before you make the assumption in your post about teams ganging up, have you even tried pugging 4-way? (answer is no ;__; ) Try the normal 4-way siege in a pug, see how it goes, if there is indeed some kind of unbalanced gameplay then try to implement something else (not this 33% idea plis, it doesn't make sense to mi ty).

es mi opinion, y es verdad �_�

No.

I got it: no elimination.
Once everyone's ganged up on you and put your core on 0% (their side), you can still play to make other team's cores go down to 0% (your side) and try to win.
