I'd like to request a dogfight game where it is reds vs. blues.

It can be a lot of fun to team up in a dogfight (Especially with squads) but my eyes have a hard time reading the name tags. It's interesting how the Win or lose credit depends on whether the winner is on the same side (German/allies) as you anyway.

I don't want to eliminate the free for all mode, just add another game option.

That's how that works?!!?...never knew and never asked! I'm with you, when would you find 8 planes all independent from each other and all enemies. The way it is now, how you do is a bit of luck as to where you spawn and if there are lots of planes everyone's busy shooting someone else so you can get a bunch fast and easy. Not very realistic IMO. Make the kills like 30 and as a team and the rounds would start to be my favorite.

you could do in a CTC or BTB game, and just declare it to be a DF only, everyone drops their bombs and meets in no mans land.

ut malleus omnia similis clavum

It would be cool if there was 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in FFA. So if you place in once of these brackets, all three people would be considered "winners."

With no respawns and no quit option. 1 death each. You would really have to bring your A game. The servers would make it 4 vs 1 all the time. :) this would almost have to be a squad wars option or a squad only option any way.

We already have this game option... It's called capture the carrier. It's always seemed like a team FFA to me.

I'd like to see a capture the flag game. You could have a ring like the practice round that you fly through to "capture" the flag. You'd have to capture he enemy flag and return to your base and land to win. When you get shot down you "drop" the flag where you go down. The defending team could recapture it and return it to home base. (Wouldn't this screw with the campers!?!?)

Another game I've thought of is kinda like Noushbag's get the Noush. When I was in school we called it (sorry if this is now considered offensive, but it's what we called it) Smear the Queer. One player (maybe 1st to spawn) is declared "it" every one else is blue. Once the "it" plane gets shot down the one that killed "it" becomes "it". You win the game by either being "it" for a set period of time (maybe 2-5 minutes straight) or killing "it" a set among of times (maybe 5-10).

Edit:Sorry McF, kinda went off topic there :S
Fuck this place. Second rate hack playing in a yard that's too big for him.

The 2nd game idea you said would be the old fashioned Fox and the Hound match.

Sky thanks for the video and the more PC name... And here I thought I was being unbelievably clever for thinking it up all on my own. :dry:

There should be lots of squad wars going on. Squads vs Squads.
