New Gamemode: Bounty

Hi all,
I have been having a great time playing SG lately. I have followed the game since it was Western Quake, and for me it's still the best Western Game out there (didn't try out Rockstar's newest jewel though). I was thinking about gamemodes yesterday after a few beers and some sort of king of the hill came to my mind. I'm not sure whether something like this would be doable with this engine, but I thought I just share it with you:

A bounty game, where the first player to reach let's say 50 $ gets a bounty slapped on its head. It increases over time or whenever the hunted kills another player, so the one who kills him/her must judge whether it's better to kill him right away or to wait until the bounty raises. The one with the most cash at the end of the round wins. Something like that. It could also be possible that the hunted gets a part of the bounty on his head with each kill. Maybe this has been suggested before...

Cheers Trinità

PS: oh yes, please allow characters like "à" in the name, so I can spell my ingame nick properly, thanks ; )

This gamemode sounds similar to a gamemode in Call of Juarez 2, which is very fun actually. Would be fun to see this incorporated into this game. More gamemodes overall would be great! But that's up to the coders, and if they feel they've got the time and energy.

Anyway, this sounds like fun!

I think i already kinda mentioned that in one of my posts for the Money stuff.. but anyways, i never thought of a whole gamemode like this, i guess it would be a nice feature added in DM or BR, but a whole gametype?
I don't know ;)
Ah yeah and to that characters ´`^, i think they dusturb sth in the confiq ( some guy that knows that better than me will ask you soon, i guess. ;) )

Sounds like a game of "it". One against all. I see 2 possible versions, one the player would be the "Outlaw vs. Posse", another could be "Sheriff vs. Outlaws". The lone player would need extra weapons or health and some kind of goal, like money for the Outlaw, kills for the Sheriff. Players switching sides, or being recruited or bribed, might be fun too. :D

Exactly, kind of "it". I think this could be mad fun and I also think the western setting lends itself brilliantly for stuff like that.

One way would be for whoever is "it" would get a life for each player. One against 5, he gets 5 lives, the opponents get only one. I vote yes! :D :D
