Team Regicide > Regicide

I want to go ahead and say that anyone who has been avoiding Team Regicide because of the abomination that is Regicide, consider again. I already made a thread pointing out the terrible nature of Regicide and how awful the game is, however, Team Regicide is the opposite. I love Team Regicide. When someone is the King, instead of 5 other players all gunning for them, only the 4 on the other team can, and in reality, they don’t have the ability to without getting massacred by the other team. In addition to this, the player who is doing well gets bonuses at a rate that seems accelerated because they’re not getting raped the whole time. Also, both teams have a King, making the game perfectly balanced in my opinion.

Overall, I just want any of you out there who were like me when I saw Team Regicide and groaned to know, this is a fantastic gametype and should replace Regicide as a playlist immediately. Great job 343, I will be playing this gametype very likely all week long, it is a lovely alternative to Infinity Slayer if you’re not into objective gametypes like CTF or KoTH.

wholeheartedly agree. Regicide was always meant to be a team gametype. You can see it in the limited edition guide and in the list of medals I believe, there are medals for protecting your team’s king or killing the enemy team’s king, even before Team Regicide was released into this week’s gametype shuffle.

I hope it replaces FFA regicide 100% and they bring back FFA Throwback as the constant FFA gametype.

Not to mention they should just remove the Throwback title, Regicide should never be considered the default model for Halo 4’s FFA. Throwback or Classic should imply that it uses settings, physics, gameplay, or weaponry from past games in contrast to how the regular gametype would be played.

I agree that team regicide is much better than regicide, but FFA Throwback had the worst population numbers of any gametype to date. Think the community would much prefer a lone wolves type FFA over objective.

Definitely, Lone Wolves was my go-to gametype in Halo 3, loved it.

Yep, Team Regicide rocks the casbaw!!!

yeah team regicide is awesome

Team regicide = -Yoinking!- awesome

ffa regicide = abomination

agreed, you people should take a look at my thread.

one thing I will say is that FFA slayer is a much more legitimate replacement for regicide.

I fuss about 343… a lot. But I think praise is deserved here. Team Regicide is awesome. Ya done good with this one, 343.

Steps for success.

  1. Ditch FFA Regcide

  2. Keep Team Regicide around

  3. Implement standard FFA (slayer, ball, hill)

  4. ???

  5. Success.

I think i got this right this time haha

Regicide only makes sense as a team game - in a FFA game you’d need some advantage straight away, Juggernaut style.

I say make Team Regicide the default Regicide, either do away with FFA Regicide or put it in whatever Halo 4’s equivalent of Action Sack is.

It’s kind of like a cross between Team Slayer and VIP.

It’s literally the VIP mode of Halo 4, minus the continuous overshieling that VIP had.

Team Regicide is GREAT. I hope it becomes a full time playlist.

I’m loving Team Regicide. It’s similar to VIP in past Halo games, but feels much more slayer based. Great addition and so much better than regular Regicide! I hope they keep the playlist! :slight_smile:

THIS THIS THIS and again THIS! NEVER EVER should it be considered the default FFA idk what they were thinking.

I don’t think I would find it fun to play seriously, but it is actually pretty fun to dominate randoms while tossing the crown back and forth between teammates.

I would just put Team regicide as an option in Team slayer games and trade out regicide for lone wolves. I don’t mind regicide every now and than but I’d much rather have a FFA playlist.
