NEW GAME MODE IDEA!

[CMDR CHXOSS]

So this game mode has no name that I have come up with but would basically be based off of zombies from Call of Duty PLEASE DON'T LEAVE YET!!

You could make a wing of you and 3 other CMDRs where you team up and have to fight off waves of security wings in different RES style environments, similar to the CQC environments. How it would work is that like CQC you have a separate ranking and save filing and you have get points based on that rank to spend on a ship and outfitting for it...Higher ranks = more points to spend. Wave 1 could be like a wing of 5 Condors and keeps escalating up until it's a wing of Elite Anacondas with 2 wings of Eagles as well, or something like that.

What do you guys think?

I say go and play Call of duty.

I got one that does not involve zombies also...it's called hide and seek (now which of these 400billion stars I wonder...) actually you could do it inside any system just for lols!

WOW! What a nice comment; very constructive too!

It's a dismissive comment which is clearly indicative of their opinion. There's nothing invalid about this. Read the words, not what you want to see.

However, I do like the idea and I think it'd be a great way to bring the non-PvP crowd into CQC a bit more.

This does nothing for me. It might be fun for people that like CoD etc.
I do remember Freespace having mission modes that were a lot like this and one of the training mission for Elite does just this just not multiplayer.
My problem isn't with the idea just how does it fit in with the Elite universe?
I have issues with CQC as it is, it's a simulations contest not a real in game event ( IE you can't fly to the system and park your main ship and join in).

Guess I just don't like the idea of game modes in Elite at all.

If your idea was to happen would rather see it being triggered when your wing of four commanders all become wanted pirates and amass a bounty of 1,000,000cr each at that point your wing triggers "Most Wanted" and the game start to send out incressing waves of law ships to take you down.
Starting with a wing of Sidewinders then Vipers etc ending up if you survive a wing of Anacondas. At that point tagging your wing open to PvP wings of Commanders, while still throwing NPC's at you.

Well me for mentioning CoD to get an idea out there, which I don't even play. It could NEVER be fun of course because I used CoD to explain my idea, which would make Elite Dangerous so very similar to CoD....

By the way my idea already basically exists in the game. Get in a wing with some friends, interdict a guy, kill him, and then sit around and see if swarms of security don't come after you...
