Game modes: FFA, Duels, Practice & Simulator
Compare the four advertised Unstable SMP FFA modes and choose the right place to learn, duel or fight with a squad.
Choose the mode for your goal
| Mode | What the official listing describes | Our recommended focus |
|---|---|---|
| Practice Dummy | A place to practice | Item swaps and repeatable attacks |
| Duels | Player duels | Reading one opponent |
| FFA | Free-for-all combat | Target selection and awareness |
| Simulator | Up to 100 reactive, healing soldiers | Group coordination and sustained pressure |
Practice is for execution
A dummy removes the need to read an opponent. Use that space to make your actions deliberate. When your basic sequence feels repeatable, take it into a duel; landing on a stationary target is a different task from landing on a moving player. Start with combat practice.
Duels are for matchups
Choose a focused question for each match. Can you approach without spending your escape? Can you stop chasing when an exchange turns against you? Our Duels guide turns these into concrete training goals.
FFA adds other players to every decision
The nearest opponent is only part of the situation. Look for other players entering the fight and reset before a duel becomes a crowded exchange. See FFA strategy.
Simulator is a separate squad challenge
The official description allows solo play or up to ten players against up to 100 soldiers, and explicitly says soldiers fight back and heal. Do not treat them as static dummies. Our Simulator guide suggests a simple team plan. The listed player and soldier limits are maximums, not a requirement to fill every slot.
