Should Battle Royale be a game mode? - Firebarrage - 05-15-2019
Hi all.
Battle Royale was added as this years April Fools joke. It currently exists as an admin only gimmick round. However its pretty easy to add it in as a full mode. Im making this poll as a way to see what people think about doing this.
Also general BR suggestions thread.

Yes
Even less fleshed out gimmick game modes could be nice if you just make them rare.

When you implement the joke BR mode into rotation, it stops being a joke.
In its stead, you become the joke.
We all become the joke.
I don't want to be that kind of joke.
Thanks.

Yes I had fun with it and I want to play more SO I CAN GET THAT SPACE ROYALE I WAS SO FUCKING CLOSE THAT ONE TIME

If it does it needs to be very rare and have a very strict time limit so that rounds don't last more than 15 or so minutes. Battle Royale is wildly different from every other game mode.

Its easy enough to autocall the shuttle at 15 minutes. I can get behind that.

I'm gonna pop bubs head with my grizzled fists.
On a more serious note, a rare roll is always good. Gotta spice things up, keep peeps on their toes. Paranoia is this games strongest point.

My personal opinion is yes but the majority of players aren’t fans. We see pop decreases every time it’s announced. People switch to RP1. I’d like it to be added but rarely, like old rev % rare.
RE: Should Battle Royale be a game mode? - Sundance - 05-15-2019
I suppose then - don't announce it? Let it just happen? But yeah, let it be a quick hot and heavy round where players scratch that itch and the shuttle is called at the 15 mark.

A joke round type quickly loses its charm when it pops up too frequently.
Event only is the best thing to keep it more fresh.

What if BR was available on Ass-Day only?
What if BR was available with a prerequisite task, the way disaster does?

What if we added it for a week to see the reactions?
