BuildWars, and the possible revival - Odyssey - 30-11-2018
Hello All! Odyssey here and I want to talk about Buildwars and what a game mode it is.
So I used to play this old Game-mode on CS:GO called Build-wars. It's been a few years since it kicked off and had heaps of players and heart! But what happend was the owner (FAT Bob) of the server sold the server and it died out instantly back in 2015.
But recently I found that Domination had a Build-wars server came out from an Australian host like before and it is a dead server sadly, and I really want to revive this game-mode since it made iconic memories and numerous friends that I still have today.
Please take your time to join the server and play for bit to have the same experience and you may find your game-mode that will blow your mind. The more players the more of a experience it is, so please help the player count if you can -
The IP of the server is here - 103.212.227.2:27040
A little description of the game-mode is listed below-
Build-wars is a game-mode where 2 teams first start the game where they have 10 minutes to build whatever they want, the 2 teams have their side of the map and the middle blocked to have time to build ranging from massive bases, mazes, sky towers, or cover their whole side of the map.
Once 10 minutes is over, the two teams do whatever they must to defeat the other team, from raiding or building their way to the other side, bear in mind there is 50 minutes and one team has to win.
RE: BuildWars, and the possible revival - sown - 01-12-2018
build wars has been revived a couple times. It was very popular back in source because it was unique but as of today the possibility of growth is thin.
The question is, why play build wars when you can play rust, minecraft etc. The same goes with minigames, it's appeal slowly fades into obscuirty.
Current servers thrive on what is unique to the source engine, JB is a timeless classic, surf is.. surf and 1v1's appeal to a majority of the player base, it is a shooter after all.
I'm not saying it isn't possible, with the community we've managed to conjure up, build wars could definately be a good niche to newcommers who've never experienced it. Will it sustain? the answer is highly favoured towards -> no nigga. BUt i do not wish ill will and honestly hope it does.
