How To Change The Game Type On Your Call of Duty Server

The game type decides how matches are played on every map in your rotation.

Team DeathmatchAllies against Axis, most kills wins. Default.
Search and DestroyOne life per round. Attackers plant a bomb, defenders stop them.
RetrievalAttackers steal documents and bring them back, defenders stop them.
Behind Enemy LinesA few Allies hold out against a larger Axis team.
HeadquartersCapture and hold a radio to score. Not in version 1.1.
Capture the FlagTake the enemy flag back to your base. United Offensive only.
DominationCapture and hold flags around the map. United Offensive only.
Base AssaultDestroy the enemy base with tanks and explosives. United Offensive only.

Changing The Game Type

  1. 1
    Log in to Bropanel and select your server.
  2. 2
    In the sidebar, go to Settings.
  3. 3
    Under Gameplay, choose a Game Type.
  4. 4
    Click Save & Restart to apply your changes.

If your Game Version doesn't have the game type you picked, the server plays Team Deathmatch instead.

The United Offensive map pack maps don't support Base Assault, and mp_peaks doesn't support Retrieval.
