I was thinking about this after seeing how Halo 4 has “4” rifles (at least KNOWN rifles)
And playing some Multi team made me think about a new gametype. Multi Team only (of course there could be regular modes but hey lets make it more intresting here
Team Rifle
Teams :4
Rounds: 4
Round time: 4 minutes
Score to win: Unlimited (most kills/points at end win)
How it works: There are four teams. Each team spawns with a weapon, a rifle, One team for example would have the Carbine, Another with a Light Rifle, A team of Battle Rifles and of course a team of DMRS.
There are no weapons on map. Pistols for human weapons and plasma pistols for covenant/forunner weapons.
ROUNDS: Each round is 4 minutes. After that you switch weapons. Each team will get to hold each weapon for one round.
So if you suck at the DMR but are good with the Carbine, Good luck, you get to still use the carbine at one point
NOTES:
Weapon pickup is off. Makes you focus more on what you have and unitizing your team work and weapons.
Ordnance drops are limited to non-weapons (if that’s possible to do)
Would be on non-vehicle maps.
Other Version
This one is a two team version of this. It’s a little more tricky but it works as a 4 v 4. Each member of a team gets one of each rifle, selected randomly, yet no one rifle will be used more then once on a team. Again no pickups.
