A lot of people on my “zombie” server’s don’t know how to play Zombies and it really bugs me. Ill make a Zombies server every other Friday or so and ppl join my server to fool around either way after reading my server name: “ZOMBIES GO RED”. Anyways, Zombies is a fairly simple game type. The player range can go from 6 to 12 players. Red team are the humans and the Blue team are the “zombies”. 1 or 2 zombies [Blue team] start out the match and try to kill the humans [Red team]. When a human is killed by a zombie the player that was the human must go blue [zombie]. If a human dies but a zombie didn't cause the death the human DOES NOT have to go blue. Also:If a human kills a zombie the zombie respawns normally. When all humans are “infected” the last human to get infected will start off the next round. Now there are 2 ways humans can win: 1. is to kill a certain amount of Zombies (usually 50) and the second way is to survive in under 15 minutes. Humans can shoot there guns but zombies CANNOT shoot. Vehicles use is prohibited for zombies AND humans.

Maps preferred to play Zombies in:
Snow Grove and Fragment V2 but any CMT map will do.

(I do ALL my Zombie games on CMT maps)

(Why? To play Zombies you need a weapon that’s an instant kill - the Spiker in CMT maps is perfect)

Humans can do everything a zombie can - plus shoot. Zombies can only: jump, grenade jump, melee, pickup weapons (they can’t fire them though), and use power up’s such as overshield/camo.

Tips: If you are a human- it’s good to stay in a group and camp a certain area. Don’t get separated and dont be out in the open. Carrying a shotgun isn’t a bad idea.

Tips: If you are a zombie- BE STEALTHY! Use Bitterbanana’s 3rd person hack! Stay in a group of other zombies and attack all at once! Use the Spiker for a 1-hit melee kill and use the SMG for a fast melee attack.

This is the gametype I use I created in my zombie games, you might wanna use this too:

I really think someone should make a custom map of CMT snow grove, to stop this madness. Put swords on blue team's side, and actually create a REAL zombie gametype (I don't think it's possible though). Maybe it may stop the recent whining on servers I enter.

Yeah...Masterz wont let it happen.

Plus swords would lag like hell and, and that would ruin the gameplay.

That reminds me. Have you used the swords in H2 Zanzibar? I know they are the closest we can get, but GAWD.

The main attack basicly sends you off to god-knows-where

I remember before Patrickssj6's website broke down he said that he was working on a Zombie Gametype after the portal gun was finished. Who knows what he is doing now.

.

yeah i has to be a gametype. what if ur not playing zombies? your playing a normal team Slayer and suddenly you spawn in blue team....like WTF? lol.

Im posting my gametype today when I get home

Ive updated the front page with my gametype.

Wasn't patrickssj7 working on a Zombie script though?

Zombies fail on Halo anyway.

Forcing melee only in this game fails. As well as people being allowed to use heavies. Also, people can get up out of the reach of zombies easily.

If you as me the heavies and shotguns should not be in the game play at all. And all zombies should start with spikers and no grenade jumping of any kind should be allowed. Then it would be a lot more fair.

Trust me, there have been ALOT of times when we (zombies) have won while the entire Red Team was camping an area with all heavies. If you attack in massive numbers, it counts. Ill post a vid soon on a game

Then they just failed.

Zombies win most games, Kiwi

that would be becuase humans really cant win....
i dont see it being very hard to take out a bunch of people who arnt shooting... oh yeah i remember now... i played zombies once and got shotgunned about 12 times. i misread the rules and thought zombies could use grenades and people flamed me. not to mention the sniper rifle... oh my god, so many times....

That's because, technically speaking, humans can't win.

exactly, because they are the living dead.. you cant kill anything that is already dead; didnt everyone learn that in kindergarden?

Kiwi can.

Thats one of the fun parts about zombies- that scary thrill that your about to die and to see how long you can live.
Results after a game...

Wow now your trying to show off. First of all the game isn't over until EVERYBODY is blue and a zombie. Second of all I am sure it was your own server so you had none or little ping. Third of all I am sure you used the shotgun so when someone tried to meele you boom there goes the shotgun. And forth of all Zombie fails until someone can implement fair rules and a sword (talking about the one from the zteam beta maps) that can lunge because it just isn't fair that they can only meele. Also get a normal br that does not a have a grenade launcher because people just use it to hide in the cliffs. Personally I like zombie but on Halo it does not work out.

Looks good, how does it work? It displays the scores on the app as well as on the server, showing what team they're on also? Also, what do you mean 'bah on it?'

he means bah, I am on it.

Bah was meant in a way that he wants to do it but doesn't at the same time.

Example: "Bah, I'll be out with you guys in a minute."

Also that app is looking good. Cannot wait for it to be done then zombie will be more fun.

aye. is there a way to make it spawn so you have NO ammo?

Holy crap dude, CALM DOWN. There were some VERY close calls and no, in my server if anyone gets into a place that is inaccesible, i ban.

Sorry I just get fed up with zombie games when there is or admin present. And at that time there was no admin present.

what did i be not calm about? :(

Not you Half Jaw, i meant supersniper. and yeah its kinda common sense not to play Zombies with an Admin or host

oh my bad :)

Ive found playing zombies on Z_sanctuary really fun- just turn off shields and it was really fun. Problem though is that you can only play with 6 ppl instaead of 8 and humans cant use swords cuz itll be unfair for zombies

But then zombies use swords only... That is how it should be.

I dont know hwo to spawn zombies with swords without changing all the weapons on the map. D: If you find a way, plz tell me
