But in an effort to be concise, I'm only going list the quintessential strategies for The Longest Yard. I'll start out by introducing free for all play. I happen to think that the map can only withstand up to eight players for a decent game, mostly because the map is so small. And as I mentioned earlier, it's no fun to play on DM17 with twenty people. Team Deathmatch play is also common on The Longest Yard.
Team based strategy is a whole different ball game.
Perhaps the most common type of play, ironically enough, is Tournament. One of the most important strategies concerning all play modes of DM17 is to get a good start. Getting a good start is largely dependent on where you initially spawn. Most would agree that armor is the biggest key to winning in DM17. If you know you can get the armor first, definitely get it.
