    Air Control. A new territories gametype?

    This is just an idea I have:


    Okay so theres two bases each base has; 2 banshees,1 Hornet, and 1 Hornet transport. I'm going to set the vehicles on instant respawn so they could respawn soon as possible.

    Then there will be 5 territories. They will all be in the air and walla you have air control.

    I will make it so there is no spawn killing and the gametype is going to be called air control.

    One simple problem: what happens if you fall out of your vehicle?

    A couple of questions about your map idea:
    - how do you plan to align the territories? (straight line, 3-d movement, turns)
    -are there any obstacles in the air? (if so what are they and can you land on them)
    -finally are the bases interior to prevent spawn camping?

    I wish you luck with your map.

    That could be actually quite fun! But you may run into a problem with vehicle respawns. Hope you make it!

    Conquest is supposed to be so that it's nigh impossible to try to go around your opponents. You have to push them back. In your idea, that's not Conquest. That's just normal Territories.

    I really don't think he's talking about what we call Conquest. OP better change the title!

    If you do want to make this game, this is how you would do it:

    -make your own custom gametype that captures territories instantly, and off territory traits would make you not fly vehicles, and normal traits that promote using the vehicles
    -make your map on skybox, make the bases outside skybox just outside the elastic barrier and make it so from the outside you cant shoot into the spawn area, make the territories cover everywhere you want dudes flying, and mark the areas that aren't territories and the death floor of the skybox.

    If you have any questions just ask. Overall, this game would be really inventive and unique, i think you should make this, and message me when your done, i wanna try!

    No, Birdhouse is banshee like banshee rocket race, this is more like a turf war in the skies, kind of like what DeathToll77 and I are trying to do with Helljumpers.

    If you use air vehicles on a Conquest map, there will
    be to much room to maneuver. You shouldn't be able
    to go around your opponents in Conquest.
