| + | == The order of game modes == |
| | | | |
| − | ==Doomsday==
| + | The Game modes page does not seem to have an order near the end of the game modes. It starts in alphabetical order (going [[Arena]], [[Capture the flag]], [[Competitive mode]], and [[Control points]], ect) but after [[Zombie infection]], it then goes in a random order. If I misunderstanding something, please tell me, because I am not sure how this list: [[List_of_game_modes#Tug_of_War|Tug of war]], [[Highlander]], [[Dueling_Mini-game|Dueling Mini-games]], [[Tournament mode]], [[Category:Mods|Community modes]], and [[Unused content]] are in any order.<br> |
| − | Probably a CTF Race thing. Added some starter points, and Mr.Grant added some text (thanks!).

| − | == Split ==
| + | :Tug of War was just put after Zombie Infection because it's the bottom of the game modes list, while Highlander, Dueling, Tournament, and mods are different kind of game modes so they are a "separate" section from the rest. Feel free to re-order them, though Unused content is a separate section and should be at the bottom regardless. Make sure to separate everything from Training Mode onwards, though.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] {{!}} [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] {{!}} [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 15:00, 15 October 2024 (UTC) |

| − | == Game modes ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I'm not clear on this game mode having game modes thing. Take Control Point for instance. It says that Control Point is a game mode. Later, it says that it has two game modes itself. (A different page says it has three game modes.) Shouldn't the wording be changed for that subsection? Or do game modes have game modes within themselves? If you click on 'Start Playing' in TF2, it doesn't give you the option of picking "Control Point – Attack/Defend" or "Control Point – Standard Control Point". By the way, and I'm not saying that these are not modes, but why does TF2 only give you the option of playing "Payload", "King of the Hill", "Attack/Defense", "Payload Race", "Control Points", "Capture the Flag", and "Random"? Where is "Arena" and "Territorial Control", not to mention the "other modes" (not including "Training" since I see that easily) I read about?

| |
| − | :It's not technically a game mode, as [[Halloween mode]] can be activate in CTF, Capture Point, Arena, Territorial Control, Payload or Medieval maps. It's the same case with [[Birthday mode]]; the only effect on gameplay is purely cosmetic.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Medieval Mode appears twice, once as an Attack/Defend submode, and once under "Other modes".
| |
| − | One should be axed. Which?--[[User:SilverHammer|SilverHammer]] 19:04, 22 August 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | : I always wondered about that. I think that Medieval Mode should just have a separate section since gameplay is substantially different from Control Points. Although Valve states that Degroot Keep is an "old-tymey Controlle Pointe map", we should err on the side of caution and keep Medieval Mode in a new section in case they add different maps.

| |
| − | | |
| − | : The pattern is that the lead paragraph has in-line list of all of the game modes, and each game mode in that lists is a link to the short section about that game mode within this same page. Then each of those sections generally start with a hatnote link to the game mode's main topic.
| |
| − | : All of the anchors are unusual to my eyes. It turns out they date to before the "[[#Split|split]]" -- that is the time when there were many links from maps and other pages to the specific sections. But when the main topic pages were created, those anchors serve a much reduced purpose.
