So here's the deal...I came up with a whole bunch of new Wild Card ideas, which I was told that I was more than welcome to share/suggest/put in the drop box. However, I usually like to see if I am the only one who likes an idea, or if there are others who would be into it also. SO, instead of inundating our event coordinators with a bunch of ideas, that is what I am gonna do with this (and the next two) thread--see what interest, if any, there is in them.
Any you like vote for. You can vote for more than one.
I kinda broke them down/sorted them by general themes and I will present them in such. Lol. This first group is the simplest (they get better in parts 2 and 3, trust me.
). These are all weapon-specific or movement-specific:
1- Nades only
Premise: Pretty simple. No shooting, no melee. Nothing but shooting, throwing, or throwing back nades. Smoke nades will be allowed.
Special requirements: None. However, a smaller map (maybe an arena) is ideal...(also, by virtue of the game type, no rockets, MGs, or snipers)
2- Unmounted MGs only
Premise: A bunch of guys just running around with the MGs unmounted. The quintessential mouse-drag event. Just picture the nonsense.
Special requirements: No limit on # of MGs allowed in map.
3- Revolutionary War Snipers
Premise: (I will admit this was put in my head from something we did in a no-scope event one time) Everybody has a sniper rifle, but no scoping is allowed. We do some revolutionary-style line battles and group movements.
Special requirements: No limit on # of snipers allowed in map. Also, ideally a larger, more open map, would work for this one.
4- Crawling only
Premise: Pretty simple (as all of these first ones, haha)...nobody is allowed to walk, run, or even crouch. Crawling only (but play continues as normal). It sounds lame and kinda slow (smaller map would help with that, but really any will do), but I think it would be a good change of pace, not to mention funny, to be crawling around everywhere.
Special requirements: None.
5- Running/facing backwards only
Premise: Ok this one I thought would be really amusing. You cannot run forwards at all...you run out of spawn--and all around the map--backwards. If you know the map well, you're fine. Otherwise, it might be a little funny wondering where in the world that stinking doorway is. Also, say you're running backwards down the street and all of a sudden you run past another guy running backwards (as will happen allll the time realistically), suddenly it's an unexpected shoot-out. In the middle of it, out of nowhere, one of his allies runs (backwards) past you too. Lol, but that's ok, cause you see two of your own teammates backpedaling into the picture too.
Special requirements: None.
(*If one of my ideas has already been done or proposed, I apologize. I was unaware.)
