I'm bringin' Spartan back.

I'm getting a little sick and tired of servers running stupid gametypes like Zombies, Rockets, etc. Where are the serious players at ? I want to play CTF, Team Slayer, Assault, with normal settings. None of this random weapon bullcrap (even though it's fun sometimes). I want some challenging games and it seems that there's no one on this game that would like to play with normal settings and good gametypes. WHERE ARE THEY !!??

Dude, just chill. I have played a lot of CTF games and Team Slayers as well as assault on normal settings.. Just wait for more people to get H2V. Just look around the servers.

Usually I just 'jump in', but you can also browse the games and pick one you fancy.
Stick with it as the rotations are quite good sometimes.

I'm chilled dude. It just seems that there aren't a lot of normal games. I just want to have fun and play some awesome CTF games, that's all.

what's wrong with zombie? I think it's fun. but ya, rockets need to go, I can live with some of the game types, it's the god danm custom noob maps that are out there, I know of only a very few good custom maps in H2V.

Well Zombies was fun when it was played on xbox about 2 years ago. It gets old and not very fun anymore. I didn't get H2V to play stupid gametypes like that. I want a challenge. I want fun normal gametypes with decent people or better. Tired of these noob gametypes.

Zombies is fun if people will actually play it right... most of the times the Zombies are shooting and the Humans are using the Energy Sword... it's stupid really. Either that or they won't switch when a Zombie kills them. The really fun games to me are MLG Gametypes, SWAT, Zombies (when played correctly), Tower of Power, and Hide and Seek.

So you have to rely on everyone being famaliar with the gametype, and switching teams on there own? That kind of cooperation is rare online, so I would think this is limited to groups of people that know each other. I thought is was a built-in gametype that automatically switched the team when you where killed by the zombies.

If only it were so... and it had some kind of way to give the guns to only Humans and the swords to only Zombies. But we must rely on the intelligence of the incompetent.

Zombies is quite heavily reliant on house rules. You gotta have players who are willing to play fairly in order to really enjoy it.

Ohhhh! I see! I was in one of those games last night and had no clue what was going on. You're right. People don't play this correctly.
