Base Assault

One of the newest games. It used to be very commonly played as it is very easy to set up. The base rules are like team elimination as they both have the same number of lives and no respawns. The only difference is that one team starts at the first aid building (the defenders) and the other in the car park (the attackers). To win, the defenders need to have at least one player inside the building alive at the end of the game. If they don’t, the attackers win. Both teams can enter and leave the building at any point in the game as long as they do not stand in the entrance. Some player’s first instinct is to hunker down in the building and be ready for the attackers to enter but they’re advised that this is a bad idea since they will always be outnumbered (as all defenders will not be in the building) and they can be killed easily because the windows can be shot through and the light will bounce off the walls until it hits their sensors. The most common tactic is to wait until the very last minute to run in the base to win. When this game was played in easy mode, it was impossible for the attackers to win as there is a 3 second delay between each shot. Therefore, if you left cover to run to the building with less than a minute left, you cannot be killed because it would take 60 seconds to hit the same person 20 times, assuming the other players were accurate enough. Now that this game is in standard mode, the defender would need to do this with under 20 seconds to do the same strategy. The defenders still win more often than not. as they are able to get inside the building and not die if they have multiple people rushing back at the same time.

4/10 – Too easy for a defender to win, which makes the game very predictable.
