What if in Halo 4, the guys in 343 made a gametype, for matchmaking/customgame which was like The Hunger Games? Let’s say it’s matchmaking, and so you choose the “Hunger Games” playlist. And it searches until it finds 16 players (minimum 14?). And it’s just like the hunger games movie, you start with a countdown (?) and when it says start/go, it’s either get something from the “storage”, or running away from there. You can also get/earn weapons during the game, either from finding another storage spot, or by stealth killing others with weapons.
I know it sounds kinda weird, because it doesn’t really fit in the halo universe, but it would have been cool if 343 at least made it in a “community playlist” or something atleast
> It wouldn’t be terrible. Might actually show who the better players are for a change.
So wrong im not even gonna say anything.
But uhmmm, no. What would the losers supposed to do…wait forever for the game to finally finish? And hunger games doesnt really work because of the weapons and such.

This is a great idea. I personally didn’t like the movie at all but the idea for the games was on point. This could entirely be possible with the upgrade of forge and custom settings. Also, I heard that you could walk around with no weapons in multiplayer. (I heard)
Spartans would start with no weapons at all. No grenades or guns. Low ammo weapons would be placed around a huge map. One life survival game type. Sounds cool to me.
I could see some sort of “Survival” gametype being made where you start with no weapons and have to find them on the map…
However, I would strongly be against calling it “The Hunger Games”. It’s a good movie and book, but it doesn’t need to go any further than that.
Aside from that, I don’t think it would be good to have the starting locations the same as they were in “The Hunger Games”. 90% of matches would end in the first few seconds with people just meleeing, which would get boring real quick.
There is already a custom gametype/map in Reach for the kind of concept you have, but that’s where I think it should stay: In Custom Games.

Simply change the melee to 3 hits, or 4 hits, just for that game-type. I’m hoping there’s a mode where you can start without weapons, like perfect dark, and find them on your own.
