I guess this could just be a repository for people to get good ideas... The counterpart to this thread teaches people what to stay away from and the idea of this thread is the complete opposite. (If this has already been done, sorry) It would be really cool if this became a sticky.


well, I'd have to say my favorite game of all time is...

CTF on Bloodgulch.
Normal weapon settings
Normal health settings
Only Warthogs
To 5 captures
No less than 6 people


aren't I boring? Oh well, post your favorites. I'm going to a LAN party tomorrow and want some new, awesome ideas.

Yes you are boring :) This almost same exact thread was started yesterday and I posted this (No I will not retype all of it!!) Enjoy Mr. McFoodle ;)

______________

150% Health
Shields on
All vehicles
Friend indicator
No Motion tracker or Nav points
Normal weapon set
Custom weapons start (PP at start, makes it more challenging)
Slayer gametype
25 kills
Unlimited lives
No respawn time growth
5 second suicide penalty

And I think thats just about it. It is very fun with four people and up. May also work well with a CTF mode.

I was playing this gametype on 2v2 with my friends and it was one of the best Multiplayer experiences on Halo I have ever played. (We played Blood Gulch and Battle Creek)

I play every gametype and I enjoy them all, here is a list of some of the best tough!

Race:
Not a popular game but at LAN parties me and my friends love it
Everything left default
But assign two people to be "traffic wardens" these guys dont race but try and kill the people who are doing well. Makes it a lot more difficult!!

CTF assault:
Take your flag and put it in your opponents base to score!
No motion trackers
No friend indicators

Predator:
An oddball game
The person who is it is invisible and fast
He is the only person who can score points
Everyone else deals extra damage!

CTF Assault
must bring flag to enemy base to score
Flag switches sides after 3 minutes
5 captures
3 on 3
only warthogs
human weapons

this is something different i made up and im pretty sure it is one of the gametypes from halo 2. Try it out its pretty fun because one of the teams is playing defense and the other is on offense, then they switch every 3 minutes.

Free for all in Bloodgulch
50% health
No shields
Default Weapon: Shotgun

I liked when someone would be running behind me and I would turn around and get shoot them in the head. Happened like 10 times in a row (with the same person too)
