Add Gun Game to halo?

For those of you who have never heard of it, gun game is a game mode in Call of duty where you spawn with a set weapon (round 1 is usually a pistol) and when you get a kill you weapon is upgraded (i.e AR/suppressor). This continues for a set number of weapons, everyone going through the same order, and the weapons usually upgrade in power (level 10 rocket launcher). In CoD the final tier gives you a knife and 2 throwing knives, meant as a challenge to finish the game.

Personally it was one of my favourite game modes in CoD and I can see it being just as fitting to halo 5 perhaps with a name change and some different functionality. We have seen with super fiesta that we can have req variants in arena. I think that incorporating this into the potential game mode could be a lot of fun. Your final kill could be a plasma grenade or a non lunging energy sword who knows.
What do you guys think?

CoD didn’t come up with it, you know.

It was originally pioneered in Counter-Strike. Well before the new kid on the block rose up.

In any case, it’d be an interesting mode that Halo hasn’t seen before.

I didn’t think it was a CoD original, but had no source and no name for another game so cheers for clearing that up

I’d be fine with it being added. Maybe as one of those week-long social playlists. People modded it into Halo 4 and it played pretty well.

Would kinda be fun if it added properly. So sure, why not?!

I just feel that 343 is struggling to come up with regular weekly socials. Personally think FFA swat is bad bad bad. I heard from a friend that it was modded into H4 but never played or saw it.

Even more fun with reqs after you get a kill, like the whispered truth or something.

I think it’s an interesting idea

I have thought this for a while and I think it would translate really well into halo 5. Maybe as a weekly playlist or if they made a social game mode playlist with this and like super fiesta and a few other games. Also if they made regular gun game and then super gun game would be really cool.

This could be cool, especially if you added in a bunch of different reqs

it depends, my first match i won big time, after that i got disconnected a few times so yeah i dont really have a clue, i was winning in all matches up until disconnection… so far so good id say

I like this idea, what about: trouble in torrist town? It works in Airsoft and other shooter games, why not halo?

This could be cool but I think they would have to change the damage caused by each weapon since in this game they are very balanced. I never played this game type, I don’t play COD, but from what i understand is a matter of giving you a more powered weapon every time you die. The thing with H5 is the balance, and there is not so much difference of having a level one weapon that could be, I don’t know AR maybe? and a level ten (as you say) weapon let’s say rocket launcher, where you can easily get kill by the AR guy if you don’t have skill with the level 10 weapon. My point is that yes the power weapons gives you certain advantage yes, but not as much as in other games. It would be very interesting to try a game mode like this thou.

I’ve always wanted gun game in halo. Start off with plasma pistol bolt shot or regular magnum and have the energy sword be the final weapon (because in CoD’s gungame a knife kill was the last one.) Like the Halo 4 mod, an assassination sets someone back. I think this is something 343i should look into because it would make current players pretty happy.

I was thinking on this in the Morning :v

Sorry to put your hopes and dreams down like a diseased dog. But I’m sorry, Halo 5 isn’t CoD. If you want to play gun game, go back to Call of Duty, don’t stick around halo.

You mean make the CoD players who switched over to try it because they wanted to play CoD in the Halo genre happy?

There is no need to be harsh…we know Halo isn’t CoD, but playing that modded Gun Game game type in H4…was fun as -yoink-…it’s just a game typegame type
