I agree, zombies on halo is much better than zombies on Cs 1.6/ source, even when you play with currently released mods.

I hope that zombies is an included gametype in halo 3. it wouldnt take a whole lot to code in i dont think (mostly just code to force team switch). if bungie really wanted to they could make it so the player models of the zombies changes to flood infected elites/marines/spartans (whichever are available) if they really feel like putting some polish on it. It would also be nice if it was put into matchmaking or not if they allow us to see the server list. It's really hard to get a good 16 player zombies match going with just custom games.

There is only custom and Matchmaking. Seeing as its already a custom, most would directly assume that you wanted it in matchmaking.

Br with Zombies is boring. I was talking about the magnum, shotty (if your host), or the sword. All are one shot killers.

Now that you've specified it that you want it in just custom, I'd say thats just lazy. Its there already, just boot the cheaters who don't change.


you try booting every single guy that doesnt change... its get tiring after a while. and besides zombies is even more fun when you dont have to boot a few guys every couple of rounds and when you do have a auto team change it'll force people to play instead of the 7 year old being tempted into not changing teams just because he can or he got killed in a cheap way so he thinks he "deserves" to stay human...


Disallow team change just for that game type?


wow ummm you obvisously dont understand how zombies work...disallowing team change would totaly stop gameplay

Now that I've thought about it more...I'm changing my standpoint. Not because of what you said, but because:

A: It really isn't that hard for Bungie to make
B: Could make for some interesting Skirmish games

Mostly for B though. Example would be "Castle Storm" Where the defenders start with more people but attackers respawn and defenders respawn as Attackers.


i like your castle storm idea but dont really see where your going with this, because thats pretty much a variant of the zombies im talking about

Well i guess i had a different idea of zombie game-type, ive never played CS so yeah

I was thinking you stay on the same team but you turn into a zombie, and you stay as a zombie unless you find a 'cure' somewhere, i think that would be original. A team of zombies and a team of humans would cause to much mix ups and disagreements, while if you turned into a zombie and had to kill everyone, even your own team members, would be a nice thought

Or maybe if you had an all humans team and zombies stayed as zombies, if you WANTED to be a zombie you could to start as one, and you'd have the option to turn opponents into them.

Hey this isnt counter strike, its Halo 3, they could make something new and original instead of stealing from some other game.

Zombies should be a built in game type, like Juggernaut. It is a broad categorie that never appears in matchmaking, and has several built-in settings. One or more Zombies will be chosen at random, with a preset weapon(default would be sword), and when a player is killed, they turn into a human or covenant combat form. This I think would be the best choice, and wouldn't take very long to implement.

I'm better than you..Its just hard for me to prove it.

Could not agree more. This gametype sucks.. Play something that at least trys to be a real game. It amazes me that anyone that actually has any skills at the game would want to play this dum arse game.. why dont peeps Get better and play something worth the time.

Zombies is the WORST custom ever, and if Bungie made that into a gametype, then it's even worse. Bad idea, worse set up, bad distraction from better game types.

im assuming pdz is perfect dark zero, which to my knowledge came out on the 360...so yes you've got to be right, they released a 360 game about a month before halo 2 that makes perfect sense!
