New mode Feedback

[Magar 2]

Hello all Argo players !
Last week we played Argo with friends and like in every brainstorm we shoot ideas

What do u thing about adding "conquest" "large conquest"
Its simple game mode like in almost every bigger shooter we would get a bit larger map with bigger distance between point 
and plays 16x16 for example
To add more tactical envoirment becouse right now we have small maps realy CQB distance and 5v5 and sometimes its look more
like playing CS than battle simulator

I hope ARGO is normal standalone project and i dont get answers like buy arma 3

That's a good idea. 16/16 + light vehicles! 

[Skenkee 2]

If anything I wouldn't add cars or some sort. Walking keeps the 'tactic' more in the scope.
Also the game mode would come closer towards battlefield. But still. I think I'd enjoy it more than battlefield with the 1 life handicap. :)

Hello :)

 

Someone else had the idea to give some concepts for new gamemodes. A dev confirmed some things about the near futur of Argo in this post one month ago.

No new gamemodes are planned to be worked on in the futur for now.

 

However if one day the dev start work on a new gamemode. Here's my opinion on your idea :

 

For now I see 3 types of gameplay. CQB ( raid ), LongRange ( clash ), MediumRange ( link )

 

If they should add a new gamemode. I don't think this would be a good idea... Why ? Because it's almost the same thing. We have bomb plant ( raid ), King of the Hill ( link ) and Conquest ( clash ). If a new gamemode should be added.... This one should be new. Not a remake or something like that. Hostage recue, Escort the V.I.P. ? Something like that. Not a bigger version of a old gamemode.

 

If you play clash you can be take down by a sniper from 2 km. And it's a personnal choice. But I love the concept of 5vs5 like csgo/rb6 did. So the 16vs16... Meh... And remember Argo is a small community so....

Clash is super but the fact that its only 5 min and u are forced to atack 1 point or def it ruin a bit a tactical option...
If clash for example take longer and u could take every poin u want its could be great too

Remmeber like u say its simmilar to bf but u likeit more
OFC! right now we are out of option cuz everything was in past in other games
So we can use but improve it to be more ARGO style the BETTER style

Hi guys,

 

I think the game modes are great they already have there are a few things i would like to see if it would work.

 

I was a big fan and player Back in the day of AA:SF and loved the hospital map where 1 player was the vip located in the hospital and would hide out till the Escorting team came and extracted him and the ambush team was to prevent this from happening.

 

I also think in clash instead of just holding down a area then moving on to pick anouther etc. I think it would be cool if each objective was a different one. I.e collect the intel, secure the weapons cache, capture the objective, search and destroy.

 

This would just stir things up a little and give abit of randomization to the game mode.

 

I must admit i like 5v5 but i still think on the larger game mode clash it could work better as a 10v10

About my feedback
I aware that they wont do much about ARGO cuz its only a way to advertise ARMA
BUT! It could be fun to make bigger map and ofc more cities in clash... cuz right now its not so much of a tactical team based game
Cuz u get 5 randoms map is small action is fast (2 min round sometimes more)so its hard do say its tactical now....

I am fanboy of EVO in arma arma 2 and arma 3 patrol ops and Invade Annex (ofc PR MOD <3)
And its amazing how u need to prepare and think how to approach enemy base or area and i dont see this in ARGO
Its like COD in Arma 

[Tactical_Lunatic 2]

Would be better if combat patrol had a freeroam option were players could go where ever they want on the map, instead of being more or less confined to one small area at a time.

What don't you (not only you) understand ? This kind of questions / requests have already been made.
Argo won't compete against Arma, so forget about larger scale Argo, this is Arma's territory.

No new gamemodes are planned to be worked on in the futur for now. They are actually working on the "Witch Hunt" game mode.

"Link" isn't like KotH IMO. "Witch Hunt" will be more like a kill the infiltrator.

Its like COD in Arma I agree, Argo isn't tactical at all when compared to games like Arma and Project Reality (FREE Squad's father).
Unless you got a lot of friends to play with and against, there is almost no chance that you find milsim players.
And because there is no ranking system, this is hard to find people that play tactical.

You want no objectives and just AI to kill all over Malden ?

 

[Tactical_Lunatic 2]

larger scale patrols as an option, maybe requiring vehicular patrol, dealing with checkpoints (both friendly and hostile) along the route

[EricR 57]

In Combat Patrol, this is already hard to get the mission done and get to exfil. Bigger combat zone (AO) with vehicles in addition would results in endless missions...
You need the driver's license (Supporter's pack) to drive vehicles (available in Editor) too.
 

[Tactical_Lunatic 2]

maybe as a seperate "vehicle patrol mode" with several bases setup around the map, with the team having to travel between 2 or more mission selected bases, via certain areas which would include checkpoints ect, or maybe even bomb disposal (game randomly selects 1 player on the team to be bomb disposal BD) requiring the team to get in to an area, and protect BD while he/she defuses an explosive device and get out again.

 

i realise it can be hard for getting missions done, but if you can get a decent team together who play as a team (instead of running off trying to play like cod or battlefield) then i find it much better and more likely to complete a mission with zero casualties. This could perhaps be aided by a prefered/avoided player option.

 

thanks for the info on driving licence though i didnt know about it, what else does the supporter pack come with? :)

Unless they make a system like you said or a simple in-game friends system,
this isn't something that I believe would work (teamwork) and there is not enough people playing it.

From the Steam website :
 

Supporter's Pack includes:

• Set of 13 exclusive animations for the MVP screen.
• Bundle of 23 unique apparel items, including facewear and headwear, and backpacks (these items are purely cosmetic and do not offer any gameplay benefits).
• Highlighted name in the leaderboards.
• Access to premium servers that will be exclusively available for Argo Supporters.
• Controllable vehicles in Argo's Scenario Editor.

can we not join friends via steam yet? this could make teamwork possible.

 

also do you know when it will be made possible to stream via twitch?

I mostly just play Argo, so the Steam's notifications are pretty annoying IMO.
 

also do you know when it will be made possible to stream via twitch? I'm not sure what you really mean, cause it is already possible, since the beginning.

 

[Tactical_Lunatic 2]

nobody seems to be streaming it tho? either that or i jus cant seem to find any streams at all.

[EricR 57]

There were some in the past, but they all left Argo for for different reasons.
Would you stream your matches ? You think people would watch it ? I don't think so...
Almost every game can have good gameplay, but it is hard with Argo. With all those major bugs, toxicity (hackers, cheaters, TKers, etc) it still feels "prototype".

* It's been about 2 weeks that I'm trying to get banned well known team killers... "Romanus" and "Prussian Wolf", but guess what, they still TKilling a lot.

I guess you may have already an idea by reading others posts on the forums.
You'll understand with time that the Argo team is (I guess) young and inexperienced and they made (and still make) big mistakes IMO.
JUST NOT ANSWERING TO YOU (people in general) IS A BIG MISTAKE I THINK.

* Why am I answering as much... because I feel like there would be no answers otherwise or this would take ages to get one.

[Tactical_Lunatic 2]

the tk's are really annoying i was in a lobby with a french "player"(cant remember name) who kept team killing me, and when i spoke up i was greeted with a barrage of verbal abuse, some people though (myself included) prefer the CP mode over the other PvP modes because of the hackers/glitchers ect, but as ive mentioned before the AI in combat patrol is terrible and really ruins what could be a very good tactical shooter imho, this needs to be rectified quickly or it will be a game breaker tbh. theres a few of us gathering as a team with the goal of filling a lobby with trusted decent players which i plan on streaming, we just need to complete a 10 man squad so as to not worry about being joined by greifers/tk's ect, but if the AI isn't fixed then it will put any potential viewers off playing the game.
