Map to be played with the Cat N' Mouse Map
This is the official Forge Hub Map release for Wednesday, 12/5/07.
Cat N' Mouse was designed after the classic Cat N' Mouse gametype from Halo 2 that many of us have come to enjoy. Well we have managed to create the gametype along with a map which can be played without the use of the honor system. We created "jails" in the opposing bases in which each of the two Cats (for which we used zombies in the infection gametype) spawn. There is a teleporter room that can be seen as being blocked out through the bars in the room. At the 20 second mark pre-set fusion cores spring the jail and the cat is freed. The time delay for freeing the cat is setup in order to give the time for the mice to spread out around the map. Then at the 30 second mark the Cat's wraith will spawn on the warthog pad. The timing between when the Cats are freed and the wraith spawn is setup so a mouse doesn't wait to try to steal the wraith. This setup guarantees the Cats to retrieve their wraiths.
At this point the game plays out as it did on Halo 2. At the beginning of each round the mice spawn where the radio tower is usually located by a line of mongooses. The goal of the mice is to drive around the map and avoid the Cats who in turn are trying to find the mice and destroy them with their wraiths. It is hard for the mice to win, but I have personally done it before, and it is rewarding. May the best stunt driver win!
