You can see a list of all official maps classified by gamemode [[Map|here]].

~~As of~~ [[~~Version History~~|~~v123 Alpha~~]]~~, some gamemodes are different. However, you can still play the old gamemodes via the 'user maps' menu.~~

==[[Challenge|Challenge modes]]==

~~==[[Challenge|Challenge modes]]==~~

As of v123, 3 kinds of challenges exits, each considerated a 'different' gamemode. To install user-made challenge maps place them on documents\cobalt\maps (with the rest of user-made maps you have installed). Note that since they don't use a custom prefix, and neither are they on a 'special' folder, no gamemode icon/name will appear on the user maps menu list, but they will still be playable.

So far puzzle challenges are an unknown type of challenges.

On speed challenges, the timer is all that counts! Get to the end of the map using the less time possible!

On speed challenges, the timer is all that counts! Get to the end of the map using the less time possible! (Note: You must reach the end alive!)

==[[Deathmatch]]==

In [[Deathmatch]], you win by scoring a certain number of kills before any of the enemies does so.

==[[Deathmatch#Custom Deathmatch|Custom Deathmatch]]==

~~Before [[Version History|v123 Alpha]] came out,~~ deathmatch was played ~~with~~ teams. ~~The goal was~~ still ~~the same, but the kills were counted as team total~~.

The old version of the deathmatch gamemode was played in teams only, and while it didn't have the new features that Deathmatch can offer, it allowed for a lot more customization in terms of spawning loadouts and loot drop.

You can still install community-made maps that use this gamemode.

==[[Team Strike]]==

In [[Team Strike]], two teams composed by 4 members fight ~~eachother~~ during various rounds. The one who wins most rounds is the winner. Several pre-build 'classes' can be bought, sold or repaired between every round. If the player dies, he can take control over a bot on his team.

==[[Plug_Slam|Plug Slam]]==

[[Plug Slam]] is the newer version of [[Capture the Plug]]. You need to gather the plug(usually at the center) and send it to enemy team's goal, then you can score a point.

==[[Survival]]==

==[[Waves Survival]]==

As of [[Version History|v123 Alpha]], Survival was ~~completly~~ revamped. Survival now counts with a dynamic shop, gambling, smaller maps, and enemies are fought in waves. Most maps also contain a boss that will spawn at a certain wave.

As of [[Version History|v123 Alpha]], [[Survival]] was completely revamped. Survival now counts with a dynamic shop, gambling, smaller but more intense maps, and enemies are fought in waves. Most maps also contain a boss that will spawn at a certain wave.

===[[~~Survival#Custom_survival|Old~~ Survival]]===

==[[Classic Survival]]==

~~In the old (v122c Alpha and previous)~~ Survival mode, ~~you will need to kill your enemies~~, ~~gather the loot~~, ~~and spend it on equipment~~, ~~so you can survive for a longer period of time. The final score is based on kills~~ and ~~volts converted (Note: High scores list is only affected by volts converted, but will also display kills)~~.

The original [[Survival]] mode. More adventure-like, with all shops being physical, hidden secrets, (usually) bigger maps, and an endless duration.

==[[Bounty]]==

In [[Bounty]], your goal is to be the first to reach a defined number of volts by collecting loot and bringing it to the converter. As of [[Version History|v123 Alpha]], bounty isn't included in the game, since, according to the devs, they are ~~trying~~ to revamp bounty too.

In [[Bounty]], your goal is to be the first to reach a defined number of volts by collecting loot and bringing it to the converter. As of [[Version History|v123 Alpha]], bounty isn't included in the game, since, according to the devs, they are looking into how to revamp bounty too.
