I’ve been thinking about this game mode for a while but never really said anything because i wasn’t sure it woud work. But recently i was thinking about it again and how it could work for Halo 4.
The mode would be called something like ‘Elimination’ or ‘Last Man Standing’ and it would probably be a six player free for all variant. When the game starts, an enlarged timer appears on the HUD with a 1 minute countdown and a specific amount of points is required to pass to the next phase or round. If you don’t meet the requirements within the time limit you will be eliminated. when eliminated, your spartan disintegrates as if they were killed by a promethean weapon. at the end of each phase, there are no breaks or round changes but you will hear the announcer say for example: “2 SPARTANS ELIMINATED” depending on the amount of players who actually passed. If all players pass, the announcer will instead say: “ALL SPARTANS SAFE!” and the next timer will begin with a larger required score. You win when you are the last man standing. If it gets to the point when there are two spartans remaining, Both players will have a kill objective above thier heads (like in regicide) and the player with the most points at the end of the final round wins.
