This Saturday I’ll be beginning weekly tryouts via Xbox Live for a new Halo 4/Halo: Reach team. Based on performance I’ll be selecting 2-4 players to join the team each week. Tryouts will take place every Saturday at 12pm US Mountain Time between now and October 4. Only one group of up to 12 players will be selected to try out per week.
The format of the tryouts will be:
Match #1:FFA Infinity Slayer on Longbow
#2: Team King of the Hill on Vortex
#3: FFA Regicide on Haven
#4: Team SWAT on Complex
#5: Capture the Flag on Ragnarok
To make certain that the tryouts are fair personal loadouts will be overridden. I will be present in each match but I will not participate. I will be wearing yellow MK VI armor in individual matches and I will not open fire on any other players. In team Matches, I will be on the yellow team while all other players will on either the red or blue teams. I will not interfere with the gameplay of the tryouts. Every time a player kills me in (if it is not necessary in order to kill a participating enemy player) a point will be deducted from that player’s score, regardless of the gametype. I will do my best to post results here within 24 hours of each tryout session, but I may not be able to do so until the week after the last session of tryouts.
I’ll be using my own point system to determine which players make it into the team. I haven’t worked the system out yet but I can say now that it will be different in each gametype. I will post the system as soon as I have completed it.
Leave a comment here if you’re interested and I’ll see what I can do to get you worked into the tryouts or to answer any questions you might have.
