General Information

What's dirtfight?

Dirtfight is a gamemode based on the physical settings of Capture the flag (CTF) and the match settings of Dog Fight (DF). However, in difference to DF standards, you're allowed you use any dirty tricks the settings allow you to do (e.g. camping, closing, backdooring..)

The scoring in Dirtfight is a bit different from other gamemodes.

Scoring

  • 1000 points for a core dump
  • -1 point for a death/suicide
  • 1000 points for a round win
