Let’s be honest: that’s what it should really be called. It’s basically colorful octagon, and I hate it.
If they removed the beam rifles and just had maybe shotguns, it’d be a lot more fun.
I have to agree, it’s pretty sad when a dude gets 20 of the 25 kills needed by a beam rifle. It’s also why you can’t bring in game types that use “honor rules” in customs to matchmaking, it just won’t work unless you put restrictions. I think they should just make weapons do 0 damage and then you’ll have people ground pounding like they should.
I think it should just be a hardcore ground pound with melee as a back up.

it should just be magnums with no ammo.
If they give everyone plasma pistols, maybe it will fix the problem.

Really nice idea.
Odd how you I didn’t even have to click on the topic to know what it was about.
But yes, they need to only have a short range weapon like a shotgun or SMG or just equip your Spartan with grenades or something other than I’m going to hide behind this oversized dice and snipe
Yeh that was ment to be ground pounds only but it’s just snap shot central. It’s suicide to try to ground pound.
no ammo would fix this. (we can do that right? havent touched forge or hosted a custom game in quite a while)
spartan lasers in ground pound

Maybe if it were Plasma Pistols only. If they switched the Beam Rifle out for a Plasma Pistol and kept the Magnum, it would turn into Noob Combo Town.
I just show them who’s boss and ground pound everyone.
I like having a weapon to pair with the pounding, just don’t think the Beam Rifle is the right one. I’d like to see this played with a railgun.
spartan laser would be better in my opinion

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t there an option for no weapons in custom games?

I’m not sure on “no weapons” but you can make it where you have no ammo or make weapons do no damage.
It’s utterly ridiculous that 343 would put a bloody sniper rifle in as your main weapon, in a gametype called “Pound city”. The objective in theory, is to win by getting as many ground pound kills as you can. What in this universe possessed 343 to include a long range, super accurate weapon, where people can just sit back and take potshots is beyond me.

My guess is they barely playtest anything especially these types of games.

I think you can make guns do VERY LITTLE damage, and start with one bullet. “Ammo Count: 0” didn’t work for me for some reason.
Agreed. I’d be on board with maybe SMG?
Shotgun starts sounds awesome.
