Well I played the coolest mode in an FPS by far last night. The only problem is you have to have 9 other people who will stick to the honor system as well.
I'm talking about
Rocket Joust in Halo 3. Let me set this up for you.
Games are played in teams of 2. We had 10 guys last night, so it was 5 teams. Valhalla is a good map for this because it is wide open and large. One person drives the Mongoose, while the other person hops on the back with their Rocket Launcher and infinite ammo. The rules are you can only fire at people if you are ON THE MONGOOSE (this for some reason was hard to convey to people i.e. "But what if I just fell off the Mongoose, can I shoot then?" "No bitch you can't")
Of course the problem is, there's nothing stopping anyone from just firing whenever they want so if you play this get ready to get down right pissed. If you want to see a video of a friend of mine being a BLATANT ASS and shooting me and my teammate illegally, it's on my file share.
But overall, with some simple simple scripts and command lines, this mode could be one of the coolest ever. So I officially am requesting that Bungie please add the "Can only fire when" option into the game. Because zipping around and over hills firing Rocket Launchers at other ATV's is just fucking fun man.
Here is me and my friend from last night:
-While on vehicle
-While stationary
-While airborne
Only the "on a mongoose" option seems like it would be fun.
Also, are there ever hornets in multiplayer?
I was one of those douchebags who destroyed everybody without getting on the mongoose. You should make it so that if you land on the ground (i.e. if you're not on a mongoose), you start losing your shield (i.e. like Pirate Ships; you must stay on the Elephant or you die)
We were playing Mongoose Joust and when people were killing off the bikes, they were getting points taken away until they were in the negatives.
You are my hero! I'll try this tonight.
ZOMG, brilliant idea. I can no longer douche it up.
I'll join you tonight, Butmac. Send me an invite.
