No indication whatsoever of notability; like Onslaught (gametype) and Assault (gametype), this is just one way of playing a not-very-notable computer game. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:23, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, and those other two articles should be deleted as well since there is no notability.Frmorrison (talk) 17:59, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, reads like a game instruction manual and thus would seem to be how to content. The paragraph in the game articles does the job well enough. Dolescum (talk) 07:11, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - per WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not a Gameguide/"How-to" website. Fails the GNG too. Sergecross73 msg me 14:18, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I've been watching this article for a while to see if the sources would eventually come: they have not. The term as used in a video game reliable sources search did not show it being used similarly, and the Unreal usage was just as prevalent as different multiplayer modes or air force-style "bombing runs". I could see this redirecting to the glossary but I'd need to see more sources first that even confirm that the Unreal usage is actually prevalent throughout the rest of the industry. Please ping me if more (non-English and offline) sources show in the future. I am no longer watching this page—whisperback if you'd like a response czar  17:42, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
