In the huge pantheon of gamemode, I think that Battle Royal is going to have his place
I should make a disclamer that i do not really like BR games, BUT if a game such as Halo Infinite has lots of moden AND a BR mode… why not? More stuff for us! And could interest some new players in the Halo Franchaise.
Now: ideas!
First we’re going to need a big map. And since the campaign already has a HUGE map designed for combat everywere (cuz banished can attack you whenever) we already have some maps already ready to go!
Every different BR map could be a “island” on the halo ring.
With all the damage on the ring, instead of a classic “zone closing” we could have the exagons falling in the abyss of the space benith the ring!! It could be such a dynamic mode!
Halo already has veicles, weapons and special abilities! And everyone of those works!
Do you have other ideas??
I do not mean that the next mode will be BR!! But after season 3 (Forge season) or even in that season… why not? Battle Royal at the beginning of 2023??
The only BR I’m interested in is the Battle Rifle. Microsoft owns Activision so they have their own big battle royale (Warzone) to start milking now. I’d rather focus on the arena aspect of Halo.
I, too, am not a fan of royale-style modes, unless it’s round-based or tournament style.
Here are a few quick ideas:
Kill Zone that shrinks, does not take off shields til after 5-10 secs, then another 5-10 secs til you die. Attrition has it taking off shields instantly, which is no good.
Sky diving from space seems like a must, which is the only reason most even want this mode, lol
Vehicles are a very bad idea. Anyone who has the Vehicle will basically win. EDIT: except for mongooses and hogs with no turret.
Possibly have round eliminations. Maybe even base it on kills and have respawns, so players are not motivated to stay hidden.
Not even sure they need larger maps if they can only do 24 players.
I’m a bigger fan of the idea of adding a tournament feature, though.
Yeah, attrition danger zone is a “anti camper” thing
I like the elimination round! And thinking about vehicles, you are right
Maybe vehicles that are not offensives, or with low health
