Hello everyone MET4LLICA here, and iv'e got an idea for a new Social playlist that everyone will love!
Now we all know social slayer, 4 on 4 games of Slayer, Slayer BR's [i]....Snooze[/i]
But, every now and then you get the "Specialty" game of Rockets or Snipers and everyone always enjoys those!
So...thats what im proposing to you and the rest of the communitty!
[i][b][u]A playlist devoted exclusively to "specialty" Games![/i][/b][/u]
A list of possible Game types:
[i]Swords
Hammers
Shotty Snipers or Team Snipers
Rockets
Grifball
SWAT Magnums perhaps?
Team Shotguns
(please leave any Game Types you think are good and i will add them!)[/i]
USER IDEAS:
[i]Fiesta[/i]
[i]Nades & Spades[/i]
[i]3 Ball[/i]
[i](Idea by me) Phantom Pistols, 1 life per round and 5 rounds, 1 shot kill and plasma pistols only[/i]
[i]Living dead perhaps?[/i]
[i]World series, see bottom of page 5 under flav92's post for details[/i]
[i]Tower of Power, (would need a custom map)[/i]
[i]Nuttin' but nades, (see middle of page 7 for details)[/i]
[i]Covie Carbines, oposite of team BR's, plasma rifle and carbine start![/i]
It would be 4 on 4, or 3 on 3. (Just like TS except Social!)
tell me what you think!

[quote][u][b]TO CLEAR THINGS UP[/u][/b][/quote]
Although im sure lots of people have thought about this, i created this thread entirely on the thoughts of me and a couple friends, i did not copy anything anyone has ever said. if i did, point it out and remember, [quote]IT WAS A COINCIDENCE[/quote]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] mastershoter i want 3 ball[/quote]Ok thats going up! thanks!

If this isn't something that could work out, I would love a Team Snipers or Shotty Snipers playlist in itself.
-
That would actually be a pretty good playlist in my opinion.

BRAND NEW IDEA

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sethballin I really get sick of playing team br's and that stuff.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] The Last Fighter A snipers playlist would be great. I miss Halo 2 sometimes...good times.[/quote]Ahhh the memories..Team snipers on terminal was the greatest!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] JimboMonkey1234 You realize that the merit of a 'specialty' game is that you get to play with your certain specialty. With the playlist you recommend, people would only get their 'specialty' every once in a while, and be forced to play crappy ones to get there. You might as well play Team Slayer, almost always get decent games, get great games once in a while, and crappy games that are distributed evenly.[/quote]Your entitled to your opinion but i disagree, the majority of people love the idea, you may not like some so you don't have to play it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Syzydeh So...would that mean that I wouldn't get rockets every 2 games on DLC FFA? [b]NO. ONE. LIKES. ROCKETS.[/b][/quote]i do.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DJMcG9 About Griffball. I'm not so sure that Griffball is needed. I could see many people getting upset with playing Griffball since there are many people that hate that game type (I am not one of those people; I do very well in Griffball games). It might be better to keep the playlist Slayer oriented so that there is a consistency with the game types. Consistency is important for it gives the player some idea of what to expect. If the player does not know what to expect they may avoid the playlist in fear of something they don't want. You could add Nades and Spades (game type where you can only score with grenade sticks and melees). I want this playlist as bad as everyone else.[/quote]Thanks for the feedback, nades and spades is going up on the list

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xx Overkill VR the playlists that we have now are a perfect set so that there are just enough players in each one to keep them all alive[/quote]Yeah, this would drain alot of people out of them, but there will still be thousands of players playing the other playlist [Edited on 10.01.2008 7:37 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] O Malley85 thats wat customs r for[/quote] customs are for playing with your friends online. im pretty sure random people wouldnt just join you and its hard to get a full game going if you dont know many people online. also you dont get exp from customs. oh yeah and i would like to see that playlist in matchmaking. once again matchmaking is completely different from customs.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FlaV92 you know, you should add Fiesta to that playlist, i love spawning with the randomist weapons, its so darn funny.[/quote]Ok im adding it right now, great idea BTW
-
i think it is a great idea if you are getting sick of playing slayer or slayer brs this would be a great playlist to play
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FlaV92 Good idea, but i doubt it would work because they already have those in playlists so....[/quote]Just cut their occurences in TS and social slayer and put it all in this hopper!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BaCk iz PaCkiNG I like the idea.. remember action sack from h2 with alternative weapon based gametypes? perhaps something like that would be fun.[/quote]Action sack? oooh yeah! i loved that! this would be similar indeed!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ThwartedCookie take out grifball and that would be a great playlist[/quote]Well lets wait and see if Shishka will even [i]like[/i] the idea before we try to perfect it. but, your entitled to your opinon so feel free to share it!
