Ok, there needs to be a game mode where there's one person who is assigned each match to be the strongest and fastest, and everyone has to try and kill him and when he dies another person is granted to be the strongest and fastest.

I've been thinking about this sort of mode too, I think the balancing might be tricky but it could be lots of fun.
What if the one player has to collect a number of flags, or run one flag from one spot to another?
It could be called "Fugitive Mode".

You know what the funny thing is, I had this idea after a stoner conversation about pacman with my brothers. Maybe I should take it more seriously? :P

Something like the "MUTANT" mutator of UT2004 maybe? You had invisibility, all weapons, ammo, health, etc... This can be very funny for RE.

Man this is a very nice idea, maybe a "Lone Ranger" mutator .

Alright, let's call it the "PAKMAN" (Pwns All Kids, Mens And Noobs) mutator .

Nevermind my previous post... I think I've got the right name for such a mode: the "BOSS" mode.

Also, some random ideas for this mode:

• First player to frag becomes the "BOSS".
• The player that frags the "BOSS", becomes the new "BOSS".
• The player with less score points becomes the "NOOB".
• The "NOOB" can kill other players too.
• Stats for the "BOSS" could be:
  
  • lots of health but no regeneration, maybe 999 (or 666) of health?
  • 3x faster than everyone else.
  • faster charging impulse meter, or infinite?
  • has all weapons (except grenades and rockets for obvious reasons).
  • score points could be: (damage done)/(deaths+1).

...

What do you think?

===Edit 1===
Replaced "mutator" by "mode". I realized that this is a mode not a mutator.
