On that note, one idea I had is a variation of "capture the flag", where teams of people race through a level grabbing items, and whoever makes it out of the level FIRST and/or with the most items wins the level -- OR -- whoever has the most keys INTACT at the end of some time limit wins. In team play, this could be interesting if you have one player go for the goods while their team-mates fight off the other team's players, who has someone going for the goods as well. And instead of winding up at a random point when you die, everybody goes back to the common starting point and has to make it back to wherever the current match-up is happening. Of course, in the race to get back, there's bound to be confrontations between players of opposite sides..... If one is killed, any key/item they might be holding goes back to it's source spot for someone to grab again. This is a big incentive for blowing your opposition away if you're short items/points before time runs out. There's lots of possible tactics which could be applied to a scenario like this in team play. >Most of the other suggestions have been made, and I believe we're looking >at them.
