Subject: New Gametype: Core Slayer

Brilliant! Although, can you steal the enemy power core and use it on your own team's IME? Can you or the enemy take either core out of a IME while it is in use and put it something else?


IME are not team specific. Any team can use any IME.

Once a Power Core is inserted into an IME it cannot be removed. This allows players to power up an IME without having to babysit it and make sure no one steals the core.

The enemy team's core would most likely be stolen by grabbing it from their base after it respawns or killing the core carrier on his way to an IME.

Sounds like a decent gametype, but I don't know how it could actually be implemented into the game code-wise.


We can already carry a bomb. Some Invasion style scripting could take care of the rest of the coding I'm betting. The hardest part would be building a balanced map with multiple path modifiers, offensive weapons and defensive barriers.

My greatest hope for Halo 4's Forge is that it has interactive elements like switches and moving parts.


Same here. And by using Power Cores to activate the items the payout can be greater than just opening a gate because of the time and risk you took carrying the core there.

Sound interesting, it would be a popular game mode if introduced.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

Sounds like you're combining phase 3 Invasion with Slayer, which sounds beast.

Yeah but instead of ending the game when you get the core to its destination you get to reap the benefits of your sacrifie (the time it took you to carry the core and your ability to shoot while carrying it) by modifying the map to your advantage.
