    Game Mode- Kill Them All
    This will be last man standing match.
    No team. All players will be placed in map with equal separation.
    Time will be 5-7min.
    Also there will be a poisoning gas cloud extending from map boundaries, Making map smaller per sec. Some Damage will be dealt per sec if you touch gas.
    Note: Mines will be ban in this mode.

    Allow mines. You can't camp the outside because of the gas, and camping the middle will catch everyone's attention. They're fair lol.

    True. But then you have less weapons on you. Just watch out for mines?

    How about one that spawns mines in at random that never blow up, so at the end of five min, the are 50 mines.

    There is several things worth mentioning in this format..
    1. Fixers won't do any good since everyone is enemy.
    2.Close Range, High damage weapons will be dominant.
    3. Yellow ships will have a advantage so it will be tactical to destroy them first.

    My guess is that there aren't enough players to segregate the base this way. The game relies on a robust pool of players to select from to do matchmaking. Every time you make a "new mode" or anything like that you are segregating the player base meaning the pool of players to draw from is smaller. You can already see Battle Bay struggling to do matches at certain times of the day. This is when you get those "I phoned it home" matches from the matchmaking system.

    I've thought about this same thing with questing. If questing were it's own mode I could afford to drag out my alternate ships and experiment with other weapons, etc. But again, the size of the player base argues against that.

    I get that..but sooner than later devs have to find a way otherwise it will only lose player base.
    They have to take some risks. Offer better deal and incentives to lure players and keep them playing for starters.

    Why not make it so that the game modes are random?

    To @Snapshot's point, the devs already took a risk with the Custom Battle feature, it didn't have such a big impact. I think that the diverse game modes would work even if they weren't random.

    Idea- how about if devs can add filters to normal match making. When we hit battle it will show normal match or add filters
    Filter example : all yellow - in this we will be matched in a all yellow match.
    Non-yellow match, anti-fixer , all torp user , anti long range , only long range.

    I would wonder how popular those custom matches are. I shun them like the plague unless I'm using one to capture video for a shot I want. Heck, I shun everything that doesn't involve using my speeder, as designed. If other people think as I do then that explains why the impact of custom matches is negligible. A more popular mode (like questing) would show the problem more dramatically.

    How about capture the flag? 2 bases guarded by ai turrets(mortars or cannons,ect:) and you have to go to the other base and capture the flag and bring it back with u,(note:infinite respawns)this would be cool...also survival mode against MORE INTELIGENT ai ships,or something like that would be verry cool.thx for reading

    I think another cool event would be some kind of global guild event. For 1 week, the rivalry will be replaced with the event, which has some different quests (ie Christmas would tell you to ring jingle bells X number of times). There could also be event gamemodes that are just small alterations from normal battles. They could be simple, but it'd liven up the game a bit to have things like these once in a while. Throw in a little reward at the end and everyone will always be excited for the next event.

    I posted this elsewhere, but thought this would be a better spot to share:

    I would love to see a rotating 'map of the month' type scenario. Each month has a special map, but only for that month. As time goes by these maps can be tweaked until the Devs are happy with them, at which point they become a permanent addition to the bay.
