Hold the flag without teams.

All against all.

Try adding a bit more to your description, because as it stands, it's just rambo mode without the bow.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams it is
still a beautiful world.  Strive to be happy.

A free-for-all Hold the Flag gamemode is basically what he's suggesting.

It sounds fun, though it might get confused with the Pointmatch gamemode.

No, PointMatch involves killing. Hold the Flag gives point for just having the flag.
 


SUPPORT. Really easy to make.

Uh... there's actually a REASON Hold-the-Flag was given teams. If you made it FFA no one would be able to get more than 15 seconds' worth of time overall in a match since there'd be so much massacre. ::)

I don't support.

Low the final score or accelerate flag timing point. r:-|

Too similar to Pointmatch... though nobody plays Pointmatch anyway, so this could replace it.

Mm, I guess, but it's still too similar to PointMatch IMO

Can see m79 boosters getting to hard places out of luck and they would win :)

no - with many people it's too luck dependent actually getting hold of the flag.  too many noobs spraying around.
Can't think of anything original to put here...

Nothing will replace PointMatch, I believe MM said it was his favorite game mode in one of the interviews. (Correct me if I'm wrong) And no one plays HTF or PM anymore, so I don't know if this would do anything either.
