So I’m sure this has exited before Black Ops, maybe not. Either way say what you want about CALL OF DOOOTY, but Gun Game/arms race (for you CS:Go fans) is fun and fresh in the FPS genre.
What’s arms race gun game
Everyone starts with a weapon. Each time you kill you get a new weapon.
In this case (making -Yoink- up)
Order could go like…
Plasma Pistol
Pistol
Assault Rifle
BR
Storm Rifle
DMR
Carbine
Shotgun
Light Rifle
Sniper Rifle
Sticky Launcher
Scatter Shot
Rocket Launcher
FRG
Energy Sword
FINAL: Gravity Hammer
Give or take a few.
Other rules
Being whacked=You go down a weapon grade
Being assassinated=Go back to the first weapon
Grenades=None.
AA’s/Abilities/Etc=None
Modes
>Alien Arms=Only use alien weapons. Covenant and Forerunner. Same rules as above. Just with aliens
>UNSC Arms=Only Human weapons/unsc/w/e
>Vehicle Arms=This is an interesting one. But people are forced in vehicles. In the case of easyness only vehicles that can be piloted by a single player.
Yet if it could be done right with team mates all vehicles could be used.
>FFA version=FFA
>Fiesta=All weapons used. Yet each player has a diferent weapon tier list. Yet everyone starts with the same weapon regardless, and ends with the same weapon
Shocked nobody had something to say about this.
I think it would work well in halo. Could even imrpove what BO did.

Hmmm, I don’t think so. Maybe, it does not seem very Halo style.
Gun game existed long before Black Ops. Original Counter Strike, folks.
And I’d love to see this in Halo 4.
Black Ops stole it from a Counter-Strike mod and since I love Counter-Strike and I could actually see this working well in Halo, yes.
Yes. I hate Gun Master in Battlefield, but Arms Race is pretty fun in CS:GO.
Great action sack idea or a 16p custom game in the octagon.
Nah, I hate this in CS and don’t see it working for Halo…
I very much doubt it would work well.
Gungame is more halo then cod if you think about it.
Just because its in COD doesnt make it owned.
And with halos more diverse and interesting weapons it would be fun to see.
Plus its balanced
I’m not very fond of the weapon order, but I’m not going to correct that (rocket launchers are definitely a no).
I don’t like the idea of death resulting in a weapon downgrade. That can be extremely frustrating. It would be a rage fest among every player in the lobby. And I don’t think assassinations should set it back to the first, I think it should set it back one weapon. That’s less rage inducing (if only slightly), and it’s an interesting mechanic.
The vehicle thing is interesting, but impossible to balance. While it’s interesting, it lacks in fun and overall playability. There’s not enough vehicles to pilot and move up the ranks, and would most likely be unbalanced even if 343 were to add in twenty new sky vehicles (Which is preposterous).
But then, what confused me, is that you said teammates were allowed functionality in some vehicles. Now this is a team game? How would that work? Someone gets a kill in a banshee and everyone restarts in warthogs as the second tier? A little unbalanced, even if that were able to continue and still make sense. If they were to move up to a tank, the other team would be screwed.
As I said before, I’m still confused as to what you meant by that. So I could be thinking something completely different from your concept of it.
Fiesta is a little unbalanced too, I’m going to have to count that one out.
So really, I don’t believe it could work right, a few people rank up to a BR and the couple of people that are using ARs wouldn’t stand a chance. I just don’t see it working.
