The dynamic game mode generates a threat number which is used to "buy" rulesets (rulesets are basically your antagonists). This means you can have rounds with for example traitors and cult. You can have multiple rulesets depending on the pop and threat level. There are latejoin and midround rulesets as well; The ''latejoin'' ruleset can assign late joining players as antagonists, and the ''midround'' ruleset assigns (prompts) ghosts or currently living players as antagonists.

No antagonists spawn, but the crew gets objectives to build high-tech constructions requiring the cooperation of the whole station. These [[Goals#Station_Goals|Station Goals]] include a bluespace artillery position, a station shield or a DNA vault. Unless it is forced by an admin, this mode will only appear when there is not enough players for any other gamemode in rotation.

Vampires are creatures of the night - predatory beings of occult origin who feed on crew members for their blood (if they have any). They have assimilated into the crew and must feed off of other crew members to gain new powers. Vampires worship Lilith, who in exchange for their humanity gives them immortality and eternal youth in exchange for a never ending hunger for blood. In the Vampires gamemode, crew are randomly selected to fill the role of a Vampire, and are given a set of objectives to fulfill.

A violent turf war between opposing gangs has erupted on the station! Similar to Revolution, there are '''Gang Bosses''' who can recruit other crew members to join their ranks. Their goal is to '''take over the station''' using a Dominator machine. Gangs will be fighting to claim areas of the station as their territory. The more territories they control, the more weapons they will be able to afford.
