Everade 1,659 Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Capture The Flag [ Play Overview ] Classic capture the flag competition between two sides. Each participating team tries to recover the opposing team's crystal (located in the opposite likely well-defended base) and return with it to their own base, capturing it. Throughout the battle, you'll also need to defeat or avoid the enemy forces that seek to block your path and steal your crystal for their own. [ Crystals ] Any crystal can be picked up by walking over it; once you've picked up the enemy's crystal, you become the crystal carrier. If you die while carrying the crystal, it is dropped, and can be recovered. If a member of the enemy team recovers the crystal before your team does, it is returned to their base instantly. For the duration of the time that you hold the crystal, you'll be subject to a debuff - a over time life drainer. This will make you easier and easier for the enemy to kill until you unload the crystal. Once you return the crystal to your base's crystal place, you'll successfuly capture it, and a new crystal will appear at your opponents' crystal place (for your team to capture). [ How To Win ] Capture Victory - the first team to capture the opposing team's crystal 3 times is declared the winner. Timer - If no side has captured 3 crystals before the match timer elapses, the game is over. The team with the most successful crystal captures will be declared the victor.

Everade 1,659 Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Triple Inferno [ Play Overview ] Triple Inferno is the only mode where 3 teams compete against each other at the same time. The goal is to not just kill, but to sacrifice your enemies skulls to one of the 2 totems located at your team's base. [ Skulls ] Each time someone dies, a skill in the color of the dying team member ( red / blue / green ) including all the skulls in the inventory will be dropped around the corpse. It is crucial to sacrifice your gathered enemies skulls to one of the your totems before getting killed yourself. [ Sacrifice ] All you have to do to sacrifice your gathered skulls is to walk nearby the 2 totems located at your own base ( where you re-spawn ). The mini-map will also help you by showing all the team-base colors ( red / blue / green ) . Each sacrificed enemy skull accrues to your team's total points. You can also collect your own team skulls and bring them to your sacrifice totem, not to score but to avoid other teams to score. [ How To Win ] Resource Victory - the first team to reach 20 sacrifice points, or whom made the most sacrifices when the time runs out is declared the winner.

Aii 109 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Is it possible to make battleground happy hour around 16.00 in GMT +8 since most of people online around that time? Kifune 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aii 109 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Is it possible to reduce the DM point to 15 or 20? I think 30 is too many since only like 3 ppl in each team mostly... Kifune, Aketsu and raphaelluigi 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For example, if your opponent quits, you have to wait for a very long time to win/ to receive the badges. So I suggest, timeout should reduce. Kifune 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(and ASAP is anyway more or less the time out...) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asuna 5 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Can we bring back the 3 modes of BG (Bossnia, Eye of the Storm, Domination) that were previously removed? I'm a hardcore BG player and it has been pretty stale playing the current modes over and over. I personally think it will add freshness to BG if we can bring back those 3 modes since its also in a different map. Those modes are actually not hard to understand and pretty fun to play too.

Heck, even now Triple Inferno, not a lot know how to play it properly XD Maybe they hated it before because those modes gave bravery badges and yes the map is quite big. This is more like a personal request since I like to play those modes. I figured it is a long shot but I'm just hoping some BGers will agree. Probably shouldn't get my hopes up XD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aketsu 44 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I'm sure that ppl will like also long runs if the amount of badges is enough I personally also like the other modes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
