Just discussed this last night a little bit with nit and we wanted to do some sort of event to get the guild back in gear as well as a reruiting run late this year. This is just a little test to see how it goes in guild. I know that nit and I have the game and so does Haratio. This test will stay in guild for now and will possibly beta test it into the public forums.

I haven't tried to add anyone or know some of your gamertags. So if you haven't go ahead and add me Tron714 to your friends and post if you have a copy of the game or not.

This is just an idea. If someone has another game suggestion please go ahead and leave a post.

Any takers?

I'm not terribly competitive, so tournies aren't really my thing. Still, it would be nice to game with some other people from the guild, so I'm in.

For those that don't already have it, my gamertag is AmishGuy501.

So far we got 7 people. 1 more and I think we should be good. If not thats ok, I'll work something out. How I am going to do this is use a roll function out of 100 and pair the highest with the lowest. Sounds fair to me smile I'll set a date and work out some rules hopefully by Monday morning...

And LtGigglebottom did not work out for me so please send me a friend request klassic

I know this is kind of late... but I really don't think 1v1 is the best format for Halo.

Well.

Mainly considering that the following might end up being very unbalanced 1v1

Invisibility - Easily gives you the first shot in a 1v1, as long as you know where your opponent is before cloaking.

Jetpack - This was already removed from arena to test if it's too good, and in 1v1 I can see certain situations with both people having to go jetpack in order to properly chase each other.

Rocket Launcher - need I say more? at least in 4v4 having only 4 rockets is some sort of a penalty. in 1v1, it's almost 4 free kills.

Sniper Rifle - this is only unbalanced with maps with only one sniper (most maps...). Once one person gets the sniper, as long as they're decent with it that's a ridiculous advantage, and unlike the rockets it has much more than 4 shots.

Armor Lock? I know this is arguably the most powerful armor ability... not entirely sure if it's broken for 1v1, but it certainly can act like a reset button for close quarter fights.



I know you're making rules. That's just my opinion - anyone is free to add on to that or offer input.

Hey Tron, sorry to do this but my Xbox has decided to turn on by itself and eject disks whenever it feels like it. So i can't take the chance of our match screwing up because my Xbox decided to sneeze or something. I'm gonna have to drop out.

I see where your coming from nitnit and i think what im gonna do is get a map type and download the pitstop remake and have everyone get it off my file share. I suggest people put in some rules or other things so i can edit this map accordingly.

I was thinking going Slayer pro and only having sprint, evade, and armor lock as options. So list weapons we should ban and such.

and its ok klassic, i'll just advance and take one Kururutehevil biggrin
