It looks like the Headhunters mod is going to be added to RuneQuake sometime in the future (link) and possibly even Clan Arena.
I've not played Headhunters more than maybe twice when someone was showing me what it was, but there weren't enough players and I never it played it long enough to really get a feel for the mod.
I think this is cool because I've always liked the idea of a single server being able to run a lot of different modes and if the above come to pass, the following mods should be able to run on an RQ server:
1. RuneQuake (obviously
)
2. Rocket Arena
3. Vanilla FFA DM
4. Vanilla DM match mode
5. Airshot/Midair whatever your preferred name for that is
6. Headhunters
7. Clan Arena
8. And depending if this is really a mode, practice mode.
The big thing that has always sucked is having a great server running mod X and everyone wants to play mod Y and can't find a good server with decent ping.
An example is say that a great server runs on, say, the West Coast but it's a pure DM server and therefore useless if someone wants to play CA or Rocket Arena or something. Another example is the "there is only one Headhunters server and my ping sucks there" problem.
I think this kind of thing combined with Rook's in-progress fully built-in map download could change the way servers are run.
/Then it just gets down to players fighting over what is being played.
