Replace Score Attack with 2X Score Attack

Hi,
I like the Score Attack playlist, however, it is in need of updating, in particular the main gametype of the playlist “Score Attack.” I don’t know about any of you but regular Score Attack is pretty horrible, it isn’t fun as the enemies have way too much health and you have just a regular shield. My suggestion would be to throw out out the regular “Score Attack” gametype that usually shows up in the first voting slot and replace it with “2X Score Attack.” Like this, you won’t have to keep voting for “None of the Above” until “2X Score Attack” finally shows up. It’s like that in FF Doubles, make it like that in the Score Attack playlist. Also, another recommendation that I have is to make all gametypes in the playlist to have you start with an overshield. Like this it may actually be worth playing Gruntpocalypse on the occasion, Skirmigeddon, or Sniper Attack just to name a few.
So yea, who else is with me on this to have “Score Attack” replaced with “2X Score Attack” and to have all other gametypes in the Score Attack playlist spawn you with an overshield.
I personally feel this would make the Score Attack playlist much more playable and fun.

mehh, ok.

Not sure if serious…

Don’t you think that they should give you an overshield always like they do in arcadefight or is that obscene?
Because one fuelrod shot or plasma grenade and your dead in gruntpocalypse and the grunts take out your shield in like 1.5 seconds with the pp.

Yes to replacing Score Attack with 2x. No for the overshields, we don’t need Firefight to be any easier.

I thought I had trouble understanding some of these post but I guess not. These people genuinely struggle with gruntpocalypse and they were serious…

WOW

I get 2X Score Attack all the time! :smiley:

Sure, it’s annoying how in Gruntpocalypse a FRG Grunt can kill you in one shot, but I like the increase in challenge it gives. Having an Overshield in Gruntpoc would make it too easy in my opinion.

Yeah they can kill you in one shot with the FRG, but isn’t that what dodging is for? Or not letting them get that close to score the shot?

Score Attack (not 2x) is fine enough on its own. Hell, the only problem I face in it is the Brute wave, because i’m not being given overshields and enough strength where I could kill them blindfolded. And that’s great, because it’s a challenge. Don’t want Score Attack? Vote None, and try to find a map that gives you 2x.

Pick up NR ammo from the Jackal wave. NR supercombines give you the force advantage over the Brutes.

Good point.
