Hi, bth I never played fortnite, but I tried PUBG Mobile and COD Mobile and I honestly enjoyed the Battle Royale gameplay, and I think I’m kinda good at it given the number of times I’ve won, but I got tired of those games needing to download a shit ton of content and trying to make me pay for shit, so I haven’t played in a while.
So, I wonder if someone already made a FOSS Battle Royal, at least as an optional game mode inside some other game, like, there are plenty of quake clones and I wanted to know if there is some battle royal around.
Disagree. If you release a FOSS version of PUBG and have no server infrastructure, the game is dead.
It’s literally dead after it stops making money when the devs turn the servers offline. If you release a FOSS battle royale, you understand that the game either needs bots or organizers to get enough players to fill it. That’s no different than running Xonotic, just at a different scale. (There were/are also battle royales that operate with smaller player counts than PUBG or Fortnite or whatnot, which makes this easier to solve.)
Cool. Have an example of this?
Of which? Running a server for Xonotic? You can download it from the web site and follow the instructions. Battle Royales with fewer than 99 players? The Darwin Project operated with only 10. Spellbreak appeared to max out at 42.
Honestly battle royal seems like it should be hard to make a gameplay mode for Xontix
