Idea for new game type

Games Other Halo

This would be a very short one indeed, if only I could find a way how to create it. You start off with no weapons (or a very weak/hard to use weapon at least). The idea is to scrounge up weapons, or just use melee, and be the last spartan alive. You win when everyone else is dead, so one life only.

I was thinking it would be a slayer variant, but for all the game type editing I’ve done, I can only set a ‘points to win’ variable, and a time limit, so it would mean if the winner doesn’t get past the points target, he’ll just run around until the time limit is reached. I don’t want that.

According to my predictions, the better matches of this type will be roughly 30 seconds of carnage, so definitely a short one, but I wouldn’t want to set a time limit of 30 seconds… maybe some strategists will be going for ages by hiding and shooting from afar, essentially turning the mode from an early slayfest to a sniper duel.

If anyone has pointers as to how this might be created… input would be welcome.

Maybe you could make it KOTH. Put a huge KOTH around the map and set the points to win to 1. Then whoever would be the last guy alive would win. Hope this helps.

(I’m not completely sure what you’re trying to do. Sorry if I just said some random thing that had nothing to do with the gametype.)

Sounds like it might work :smiley:

Testing by myself looks promising… Insta-win, as expected. I’ve also decided to make it a 10-round match, so it adds a bit more competition to things. Thanks for the tip, though. It seems to be precisely what I was after. Couldn’t get a totally blank loadout happening though, so I’ve made it a game-specific spartan laser. So slow and cumbersome, nobody will want it, except perhaps the hardcore players
