Flood Gametype can't be customized too much.

Edited by Moderator - Please do not post leaked content, real or fake.

I also heard from people that flood was supposed to sratch the itch of the elites being cut out. Not really getting scratched here.

Seriously? If true, way to take a dump all over the community 343.

Yes, great! No more crappy random Infection gametypes, finally normal custom games again!

I agree the lack of customization is upsetting, but I wouldn’t rule out the ability to make games like Duck Hunt again. It might just take some creative fandangoing in Forge. Again, we’ll just have to wait and see for final release.

just cause you cant do it in flood doesn’t mean someone wont be able to in customs alone.

Yet again… Go read the bulletin about that. They were talking about scratching the itch of Invasion loss not about the elite crap.

double post

EDIT: Isn’t confirmed by some source that have the game we can actually turn on and off the “flood mode” anyway… A lot of people were talking about that yesterday.

Our only hope is is that Classic Infection is available!

But we could still make Duck hunt, Ghostbusters etc…

Just make the ducks and Ghosts the Flood. Those don’t need weapons. But the others do, the Hunters, a sniper and a shotgun plus a pistol.

Please not be true.

Oh god 343i, one silly mistake after the next…

It is the same with the new CTF changes. 343 have made it their way, and are not allowing us to fiddle with things to how we might prefer.

They are being pretty stubborn tbh. They look to have made a good game, but it is the little things that make a great game…

I asked them now, unfortunately Flood replace Infection, still hope for releasing a customizable Gametype on Xbox Live like Chess for Reach

Again, let’s not jump the gun. The game isn’t even released yet. Put on your constructive criticism glasses, but let’s give the people a chance here.

Also it’s the little things that determine whether or not people keep coming back to play your game. Too many little things that go the wrong way will ultimately mean less people playing in the long run and can leave a sour taste in the consumer’s mouth when the time comes to make a decision about their next purchase from you.

Wanna play fatkid or classic infection custom games?

Put 1 person on red team then everybody else on blue, and customize red teams traits, problem solved.

Even so are we going to play as anything besides Spartans and Flood because the way that was worded, they talked like they were trying to satisfy us in both Invasion and no Elites.

Don’t worry, I’m not.

I’m actually willing to give 343 up until the first map is released in December, which is hopefully when their first TU comes out too. They should really start adding more custom options by then.

It is worth voicing these opinions now though, to give 343 time to see them, listen, and respond.

> Yes, great! No more crappy random Infection gametypes, finally normal custom games again!

Agreed.

On the other hand, Halo has a history of being highly customizable…so in that regard it is sort of a shame that is brought down to a minimum.
Personally I only like the regular/normal Infection gametypes so I’m not shedding a tear over this.

On one hand I’m glad but on the other that dose suck.

I always hated infection being made into these goofy gametypes. I could never get out the idea that fat kid, ice cream man ect ect were all still technically zombies even though you are supposed to pretend they are other things…

To me those gametypes should have been variations of Juggernaut- I doubt it but hopefully that’ll return and be customizable the same is it was in H3 and be made into the old Infection variants of H3.
