Plus, it wouldn't be as difficult to organise as with the 2vs2 ladder where you need a regular partner. Deadlegion makes a good point there.

Free for all gameplay is usually defensive centric with powerful quick offensive strikes to knock out opponents, or 2v1 situations where an enemy simply can't fight two people at once.

I don't want to play these kinds of games all the time. Some more options to do so when I want to, however, would be nice. Well, yeah, I pretty much agree.

If TA is anything to go by then you don't really want to encourage a viable porcupine strategy. Great Divide 2 was one of the more popular maps on Zone and any of the good players got tired of it incredibly quickly. Long, siege games are good occasionally but you don't want them to become standard practice. TA Spring is even worse. The most popular mods and maps are all very defence centric. And people play more large team games than 1vs1 so the maps are always overcrowded. It gets incredibly repetitive. If you've got two players being defensive then things pan out pretty much as you'd expect. They play sim city for a while, and whoever managed their economy best wins. But if you've got two people attacking you get more unpredictable gameplay. People have their plan disrupted and have to take another approach. Careful what you wish for.
