If you have ANY questions about this mode, anything you want me to clarify, feel free to ask, I'll be happy to reply if I can, enjoy! Also sorry for the few lack of sounds, seem to be a problem with this mode regarding gun & explosions sounds, :s

Let me introduce you to Wave Mode. A new addictive 5v5 mode consisting of tower defenses & mass destruction! Almost feel like CF meets COD, but it's actually fun? Nothing against COD, but the gameplay doesn't appeal to me. So imagine if it has CF gameplay? Freaking Genius!

So yeah, I've seen a couple of comparison with Dota 2 as well, but since I'm not familiar with the concept of that game, you can tell me. I've also heard TF2, LoL & obviously COD. But taking the best part of all these can only make a successful mode, right? Hell yes!

The basics: You may choose between 5 different classes:
• Demolition: Have Remote C4s & drop grenades upon dying!
• Medic: Have Grenades that heal teammates & poison enemies!
• Marksman: Have a special skill that highly improve his accuracy!
• Juggernaut: Have a special skill that gives him more defense!
• Blaster: Has a freaking RPG-7!

Whatever class you choose, you stick with it the whole game. For this game, I took Demolition, this is my favorite class at the moment since I like rushing these towers and blow them up with Remote C4, :D You may use your special skill by pressing 'F' & you can use them as much as you want with different interval for each class.

So yeah, the main goal is to destroy every defense towers &, vehicles of the opposite team then finishing off their satellite. These defenses will attack you whenever you are too close, trick part is that it's the only moment that you can destroy them for close encounter (you cannot attack them unless it's in firing mode which make them vulnerable to attacks).

Since the only options are 4v4 & 5v5, this mode at least supply a couple of NPCs to support your teams! Allowing more than 10 NPC for each teams at the same time, it gets interesting. As this mode introduce its own level system, you can rack up exp with them!

To help both teams with destroying these defenses, Global Risk drop a Mortar every so often on Alpha Site. This site is really important, whenever the Mortar is dropped, first team to capture the site (more people, the faster) will get to use it. Allowing 3 mortar shoot at the target of your choice, you can easily blow up a full health tower or good part of any of the vehicles.

Also, an Energy Transmitter will also drop at Delta site by Global Risk helicopters again. It's purpose is to make your NPCs support significantly stronger and can easily distract enemy tower for a longer period. Since a tower usually one shot them, you don't have much time to attack it, but now, you're probably to destroy at least 2 towers before the effects stop (also the opposite team can steal it to stop the effect, so keep an eye on it for full effect).

At the time I made this video, I didn't knew about this, so I didn't used it to my advantage, but I did assumed it can only be good to capture it!

Finally, you can call an Airstrike after killing about 40 NPCs, you select your target just like the Mortar and blast away! Sorry if I only used it once toward the end, I don't focus much on that bar, plus my teammates seems to be faster than me calling them, lol.

This map is called: Snow Fort (冰雪要塞), but I simply prefer the term Base, xD Anyway, that's the only map so far and this is one heck of a map too. This mode has its own Graphics setting, I've been using max setting (5) for this, ^.^ I hope newer maps will bring new gimmicks and won't all be snow themed, lol, :D
