View Full Version : Halo - Ween! Who's playing?
corejonp1 10-30-07, 07:39 PM Tonight, starting at midnight, is Halo-Ween, custom zombie infection on ranked for 24 HRS. Just trying to see who's gonna be playing. I'll be on.
GT: Alopex2Lagopus
Should be a good time.
nintendoultra64 10-30-07, 08:16 PM i have always wanted to play infection were do i find this because usually i am always playing social slayer
is it in the ranked menu ?
corejonp1 10-30-07, 08:18 PM According to Bungie.net, it will be on the ranked playlists, but it may be on both. I've played infection before, and it's fun to mix it up a bit.
bflip1080 10-31-07, 02:53 PM yeah, i have never played it but have always wanted to see what its like. to bad tonight is late night at work and i won't get off till around 6:30. but i will definately be playing around 7pm MST.
Dead.Horse 10-31-07, 04:27 PM Playing Halo while listening to Ween?
Sundull 10-31-07, 06:55 PM I don't think it's that great. It's good because this is basically the only way to get a big zombie game going. However, Bungie should have given the zombies no shields but maybe some more damage resistance. This way, Creeping Death could actually be fair and balanced. Also, I don't like the Spartan Laser being in zombies, especially in Save One Bullet. Pistols and shotguns is the ideal weaponry for zombies, and no shields.
av noob 10-31-07, 08:09 PM Have fun ... I got the red ring of death this weekend, which means I send my 360 to MS and in 4 to 5 weeks they will send me some crappy used "refurbished" 360 that some more schmo like me sent in to get fixed 3 months earlier. If they made Halo for PS# I would ditch xbox forever. Bitter? just a little bit.
SSpectre 10-31-07, 08:40 PM I played a little bit earlier. It was fun. I'll probably get on again after my daughter goes to bed.
mohanman 10-31-07, 10:33 PM Just my opinion, I was so excited to hear about a zombie halloween special on halo, only to log on and fight invisible things with hammers. How dumb.
Played < 5 minutes and instead used my halloween time wisely and switched on south park instead.
What a waste of time

Union0015 11-01-07, 10:20 AM Played a few matches last night. It was pretty fun, but got old after a while. I thought it was a bit lame that the zombies are invisible during one of the game types. I actually was the last man standing in one of the matches, which was kinda cool You versus and entire army of invisible zombies. Hard as well.
I wouldn't mind seeing it as an occasional gametype. I much prefer it over Crazy Kings.
SSpectre 11-01-07, 10:54 AM I played a few more rounds last night. I really think the game type could have done without the Spartan lasers.
I thought the game types with invisibility were more fun than the regular ones.
Replicant Nexus6 11-01-07, 11:10 AM I enjoyed it. For me, it was nice not to play the same ol' Team Slayer on the same ol' Last Resort. The addition of barrels and barricades I thought was well done too.
As someone else said, it was probably the first time a lot of people, including myself, had played infection.
It was nice diversion to the usual MP.
ogbuehi 11-01-07, 12:33 PM I was excited until I found out that you had to fight invisible zombies with brute hammers. So I could never see them until it was too late. Then when so many people were infected, they would all just brute hammer every where.
bflip1080 11-01-07, 01:04 PM Yeah i did't like the invisible brute-hammer gametype at all, but save one bullet gametypes with swords and no invisibility were actually pretty fun. it was cool being the last man standing and getting bum rushed by ten people with swords and killing three of them with the shot gun before the take you out.
oo7evan 11-01-07, 01:30 PM Besides a custom game search, which should be added, this type of thing should be added.
I could see where each week or so a new type of game is added to the ranked or social matchmaking. Bungie could take their best or the best user forge maps/game types and feature them in a new separate list like Infection was. this would introduce most users to all the numerous types of gameplay that most will NEVER see since there is no custom game servers. Rocket races anyone?
jrogacki 11-01-07, 01:36 PM It was fine for me until I got to the pit during one bullet and some buttholes decided to hide under the stairs where the building and the corner with the shotguns are. They would hide under the stairs and shotgun you and you couldn't reach it with the sword.

Yeah, I ran into that several times. They need to patch that glitch.
I saw that too, and couldn't figure out how to get in there - how's it done?
jrogacki 11-01-07, 03:51 PM looked like you crouched against the beam in the corner and kept pushing and once you released the left thumb stick it moved you underneath. Either way it was annoying. I finally found a solution like 20 matches in....push a fusion coil over to the hole from the hallway and let loose on it. if you hit it right it kills them and extremely damages you.
dmaul1114 11-01-07, 04:13 PM Yeah, we did the coil thing a couple of times, but it was a crap shoot on whether it got the people under the stairs or not.
