Regicide Variants

Community General Discussion

As Regicide being the only playlist with only one game mode, whereas every other has multiple variants in them, I was thinking of new variants to introduce to the playlist.

Barebones Regicide

Score to win: 250
Time Limit: 12 minutes
General Loadout: Team Doubles settings (DMR or BR or LR or CC)

-Basic version of Regicide, preset loadouts, no ordinance, no king bounty, but there is king powerups enabled to compensate for having a target over your head
-This is for people that dislike the regular score system for Regicide which penalizes the King, and can give a maximum of 5(base)+15(bonus)+20(4*5 for max bounty)= 40 points for 1 king kill, which is essentially a quadkill in one.

Battle Royal

Number of rounds: 3 rounds
Lives per round: 3 lives only
Score to win: 50
Time Limit: 5 minutes
Game Loadouts: DMR or BR or LR or CC

-Traditionally, battle royals consist of multiple fighters that duke it out until one last man standing.
-Alternatively, it could be 1 round with 150 score to win and 10 lives only, but once people lose all their lives they’ll quit out, with 2 future rounds left they’d stay and wait.

Nice ideas, especially the first one, seems like juggernaut kinda, and I like the three round thing. Maybe swat regicide might be nice too, or an idea I have it’s regicide with swords and you run super fast. :slight_smile:

I got an idea:

Arbiter:

  • All energy swords and PP’s, no grenades(or just pulse grenades).
  • 300 points to win. Rounds last 12 min.
  • King is dubbed “Arbiter” and gains a speed boost. After 30 seconds of being alive also gains an overshield.
  • Bounty is set at 30 per regicide.

I could work with that. Maybe create a mock up of the game type. Everything seems normal, however I don’t know if you can change the boosts they get. Everything is preset, and even has their own medals (Reign of Terror, for example, gives a Damage Boost to the King after 60 seconds of being alive).
