nice idea! :smiley:

I think options to:

  • Turn players into zombies when betrayed (TOGGLE) - Turn players into zombies when commiting suicide (TOGGLE) - Ability to allow zombies to pick up weapons, but only specified ones or none (if you choose to in settings) - Better ability to chose how scoring works: Scoring in intervals, scoring in safe havens, amount of points to end the round. - Percent/Number of Alpha Zombies - Safe Havens - Last Man Standing Traits - (Including the ability to change the last man standing’s weapon to whatever you choose) - Time Limit Options - E.G. Where the time needed for survivors to win increases/resets when a survivor is infected. - Option to set each class’ ability to drive vehicles (or certain vehicles). - Health/Shield Vampirism and the ability to make it go back up when a player gets kills.With the spawning options you requested, you can already determine where every of the three player types spawn. Defender Spawn/Respawn = Survivor. Attacker Spawn = Alpha Zombie. Attacker Respawn = Normal Infected / Zombie.

I’ve played infection before where all players are invisible and its definitely not fun at all; its just a really stale way to play infection.

I am talking about the option to toggle it off and on in custom games/ forge

I was honestly thinking that I would find some 12 year old wanting things that would never come like “add a godzilla mode and ai and pokemon toys”, but this is a well constructed and plausible wishlist nice!

DUDE I FORGOT ABOUT ICE CREAM MAN, I loved that gamemode so much! 100% going to be the one to make it in Halo 5 :slight_smile:

I hope we can disable Smart Link on the infected so they don’t get that huge range boost with the sword. That may come with the green blade though.

We should have as many options as possible, as it may create some fun minigames as well.

12

The ability to turn on automatic infection to a player who betrays.

I would lol for life

13

I’ll always remember how much fun Reach infected was, I’m really excited to see it make a comeback!

14

I just thought of something that would be really silly, but cool at the same time…

In multiplayer, down on the d-pad does nothing. What if, for Infection, there was a custom option that would map a shrill screaming noise to that button if you’re infected? To prevent people from spamming it, it would have a ten second cooldown.

15

Yes all of these please

16

Make infection customization the same as, or better than, Halo 2 Anniversary.

I think the apex of Infection customization was in Halo Reach, although I didn’t play much H2A. I also enjoyed H3’s customs more than Reach.

18

There definitely needs to be a unique zombie colour if the survivors get their own armour colours.

19

Having the option of adding a “Flood Spartan” model for the infected would be good for Machinima.
Just as long as they can change their weapon like in H2A. Cause last I checked the Flood can totally use firearms.

According to Tom French, this isn’t totally out of the question. (He tweeted this at some point, IIRC)

But according to the same tweet, this isn’t going to be in at the mode’s launch.
