    I've had a few questions about possibly getting a new gamemode / server to play on. I do understand that people get bored of DR, Surf-S isn't everyones cup of tea (even though I've added things to make it easier) and not everyone enjoys building.

    So, I want to add a gamemode that's a medium, that people can enjoy and play. So I'm suggesting a few gamemodes now, and I want to see what peoples thoughts of them are or even if they like any of them.

    Please vote and also post your feedback below.

    To elaborate on the options-


    • Zombie Escape - Everyone starts off human, a ratio proportionate to the server are then picked as zombies. As a human, you have to run to the end of the map, get to the safe room and hold up there until the end of the round. As a zombie, your goal is to well, chomp on their brains and prevent them from winning. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80YVLrlxvCA

    • Ultimate Chimera Hunt - One (or more? Never played it with more than 15 people) becomes a chimera, the rest are all pigs. The goal as the pigs is to touch the button on the chimera's behind. The goal of the Chimera is to eat those delicious piggies.

    Ultimate Chimera Hunt or Garryware.

    Never played Zombie escape but it sounds ALOT like zombie survival mixed with objectives.

    I've never played Chimera Hunt, but it looks like it would bring in people (watched Youtube video), and it seems relatively interesting.

    Please note, I only voted to ensure it's working, some users are having problems apparantly.

    Zombie Escape seems nice. However, will it be like Zombie Survival?

    chimera hunt and garryware seem pretty fun, as would rp. but there are too many zombie game modes that are all pretty similar

    Garryware is fretta.

    (RP wouldn't be affected by this).

    Yes and no. It's pretty much ZS without the barricading part (apart from the end), without the various zombies with abilities and with the ability to buy guns.

    If it'll be anything like the CSS version. You know in L4D2 when you have those sections where you have to keep running?

    Its that, but with a showdown at the end such as a chopper leaving, or hold off an evac point.

    Yeah, it's pretty much a replicate of the CSS one. It just needs a few things fixing up (Whitefang made this a while back, it just never saw the light of day).

    I like the idea of Zombie Escape so I voted for that, but like Bundt said, You gotta make it so it blows away zombie survival and we'll actually get players.

    I've always liked ZE more than ZS. Chimera seems interesting, and Garryware is fun too, but I'd like to see how well ZE would do if it was on gmod. (If ZE does win, will you also be using ZM maps, or strictly ZE maps only?)
