Here's my Gametype, its called 'Hunted'
General Settings:
Players: Even amount, 4 minimum, 16 maximum
Gametype: FFA Oddball (Normal)
Map: Wizard or Derelict for 8 or less players, 8+ then Hang 'Em High
Weapon Settings: No Snipers
Health Settings: 200% Health and Shields On (Unlimited lives too)
HUD Settings: Objective Indicator On
Oddball Settings:
Number of Balls: Half the amount of players
Trait without Ball: Damage Resistant
Trait with Ball: Faster
Time to win: 5 minutes
Notes:
* The Sniper Rifle was taken out simply because it proved the most useless weapon in this game. The size of the maps needed for this gametype (not including Hang 'Em High) is small so the Sniper Rifle proves inpractical in all situations. Anyway, when playing in Hang 'Em High, you'd kill a ball holder with the Sniper Rifle and by the time you go collect the ball, someone else has taken it. Its better to take it out of the game than leave it in for someone else to take 30 minutes to discover it sucks.
Overall Trends:
* The balls will appear and everyone will rush in to get them (instant bloodbath!). Whoever survives (probably with low health) will have the ball but will most likely get owned by the freshly spawned enemies returning to the hotspot. The Question is: "Do you storm in and grab it to see if you can get away inharmed? Or do you wait to pick off the weak ball holders as they try to escape?
* After the balls have been picked up and the holders are on the move, here's what usually happens:
1. The ball holders realise that there are other like them accumulating time. They will try and kill them to stop their timer; this is whilst they'll be trying to avoid the 'Hunters' (players without balls).
2. The Hunters simply look for which ball holder is nearest using the Objective Indicator ( NO HIDING! . They then go to get him as quick as they can to stop his timer; and then start theirs.
3. It's a possibility that more than one Hunter will turn up at a ball holder, they'll fight over who gets to take the ball.
Basically, this game kicks ass.
