Has there been any thoughts on a free for all setting wether it's 1v1v1 or 1v1v1v1. Just kinda came to me. Interested in what you think.

i dont think its a good idea.

I like it very much; but it won't work as people will always team up against each other.

But that's the beauty of FFA, how long do you keep your alliance and when do you stab them in the back

That means work to build new maps only for FFA, bad investment

I like the idea, at least one new plain FFA map could be made and it could be an unranked new play mode. I wouldn't play, but I think many would!

I think that could be really fun! And I agree that just one large map should be sufficient.

I like this idea quite a bit. It reminds me of the classic Diplomacy game which is also a free-for-all no-luck game:

This game is interesting in that each player goes in parallel. Parallel turns would also be an interesting variation to outwitters.

I disagree. If you can successfully create a fun new game type, you've made a great investment. Having said that, I will concede that it's a risky investment.

Agreed. All about building alliances while protecting your back. The chat sure would be interesting. Cutting back door deals with each player in the private chat, hoping the others don't figure out your plans. The more I think about this, the more I like it. Are they really my ally, or are they working the another player against me. I think you're on to a stand alone game here.

I think a FFA mode would mix things up quite nicely!
