Rocket Joust Update - Laser Joust is Better
Butmac | 2:48 PM on 10.15.2007 8 comments


I posted a blog last week about how phun of a time I had with a group of friends playing Rocket Joust.

But I've discovered something even better "laser joust."



I set the point system so that every kill gives your -1 point. However, every driver assist gives you 2 points. This forces you to stay on the Mongoose so when you get the kill technically you will get negative points and the driver will get plus points - but in teams of two its all about the combined effort.

Lasers change the game ENTIRELY. My hand was so nervous as I was aiming for other jousters while it charged up. Definitely not for newbs this mode is. If you wanna give it a try let me know.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

There is a blind, albino, croatian immigrant that just moved in down the street from me and he asked me to setup his internets for him and I'm gonna put a wireless router on it and steal his internets so that I can finally get back online and get drunk and yell at you guys about nothing and everything and nothing it'll be amazing holy shit this sentence is really long.

Hey, that is an awesome idea. I already had a laser jousting mode and found it a lot of fun with three teams but could not find a way to make it so only vehicle kills counted. Now I have a way. Thanks for that.

Also, Tazar needs to get back. Now.

I fully support rocket joust and laser joust, and will be downloading both game types ASAP off Bungie.net.

dude yr doing it all wrong u have to do it with the grav hammer. this is much more like jousting and it takes more skill as the timing is more controlled that the spartan laser. and try nade jousting and get the front of the mongoose as both the driver and the rider pay plus u get twice the t-bagging!!!!!!!!
