    Regarding Chess: this is actually pretty easy to make, you can't actually edit the gametype that much but you only need to place one thing down in Forge and label it "Board_Center." There are other labels like that I can't think off the top of my head and I have been trying forever to figure out what they actually do. If anyone can figure it out, that would be awesome.

    Do Speedpile with one flag designated for each team.

    I thought bungie said they would already be gametypes? you have to actually go into a game of speedpile on matchmaking then save the game.

    Or just go to the links above and download them direct from Bungie.

    I just learned to play chess today. I think it would be pretty sad to play chess in real life and have someone ask "where did you learn to play chess?" and respond with "Halo..." :p

    Wow, power slayer has a huge load of potential. I haven't really checked out the editing options, so can anyone tell me what you can do with the specific kill bonuses?

    Pretty much the same thing you can do with the general player settings.

    What about Hockey? I thought that was a new gametype as well.

    so does downloading alpha zombie gametype mentioned in the first post make it that the alpha zombie is an added option for all zombie game options?

    Unfortunately, it doesn't.

    It's an individual gametype like any other. You can still just copy over the exact settings from any Infection game you've made into an Alpha Zombie compatible Infection variant.

    So where is the setup information for the chess game type? How do we make the pieces work with the game type?

    theres a video on youtube that explains how.

    to my understanding, all you do is place the chess objective down and save it
    and it generates the whole board on its own and the pieces and all that
