    Hey guys,

    I was wondering if you guys were thinking about adding any new feature from CoD Ghosts, specifically the extinction game-mode? I was thinking you could add re-textured spiders with a speed boost (kinda like the zombies from Mc-WarZ) and the drills for the hives could be re-textured minecarts you place? I know it would be hard to code and implement things like that, but it would be a great new game-mode for the Mc-War server I think.

    I recommend you explain the fundamentals of extinction, as many don't know how it works.

    Basically, from what I know, there are a number of alien hives (not sure how many) around the map, you have to place a drill at a hive to destroy it and move on to the next one. There are waves of wall climbing, almost spider like, aliens that come with each hive. As you destroy more hives, the waves get harder. I think it would be neat because you have the feel of infect but you have to accomplish things at the same time, so no camping haha. does that help?

    I like it, it's something completely new, which we don't get much.

    I am not sure if this can be coded easily. Spiders wold have to be the basic unit. Skeletons would have to shoot TNT to be the Scorpion. Basically, I think I will pass on the idea, because for one there would have to be A LOT of servers. Keep in mind extinction only can have 4 players. Also, we would have to make a prestige gun system, as to upgrade your weapons, a currency system, an item to use as a drill, traps, a helicopter, and wall weapons. So it would be VERY hard to code, and take an extremely long time as well.

    True, but why not simplify? Because there would be so many players they would be kicked out of the game after death. the helicopter, traps and wall weapons would all be cool but aren't really needed to get the feel of the game. And we can ignore the currency/classes/gun system so you just spawn with your usual load out. And for the drill you can place a minecart on a detector rail (they would be placed beside the hives) and it would start a countdown... but still that would be a TON of coding...

    Well, that basically would turn it to zombies. The point of extinction is get destroy all the hives. Barrier hives need a helicopter. The barrier hive makes it challenging. Also, if you spawn with your usual load out, you would have ray guns, crossbows, skull crushers, and isolators. What you said basically eliminates the point of extinction. Everything has to be there for it to be fun. There would be no challenge in this really.

    Exactly. To many people come to the forums asking for the same thing. It's nice to have an idea that has not been mentioned to be requested for once. I like the concept of the game mode, but I can see some flaws. Most of them BBSlayer has already pointed out. I like how you think of more original idea. Keep ideas like this coming!

    @teawithchoco he did...

    Ok, if anyone wants to know about how extinction looks and plays, here you go. This is a video from Tmartn, a famous Call of Duty Youtuber.

    No problem. I always like seeing new, fresh ideas, rather than the same old, same old. These ideas are what keep Mc-War alive. Again, keep the ideas coming.

    This seems like it could be an intersting gamemode. It could turn out pretty good.

    It seems more like a single player gamemode... Because it would be hard to make for many people at once to drill the hives and everything.
