RR Revenant Rampage Arena

Map Description

    **requires RRampage gametype**

    Revenant Rampage is a fast paced, white knuckle Revenant driven rally. It can be done alone but I recommend 3-5 players. It has the ability to play up to 8 but I've never tried. Over 8 players isn't available

    The gametype - the gametype is a variant of the Rally gametype with the use of Revenants enabled. Both the Revenant and you are indestructible. There is no time limit but the points have been adjusted to 25. If you are adding more than 4 players you may want to reduce the number of points to decrease the rapidly increasing game time. The ability to ride shotgun in the revenant is disabled. If you fall off the vehicle return to it as fast as possible, as there is no way to force the Revenant to be your main vehicle. If you do not make it back in time there is little point in continuing the race.

    The play style - The gameplay is set up to be virtually without pause. What this means is that there should be no more of the ridiculous leads that can occur in the Race gametype when one person makes a single mistake. With Rally you never know where the next rally point is so one simple mistake is no longer fatal, instead still allows for equal opportunity at the next rally point. This simple switch in gameplay keeps every racer aggressive and fighting for every single Rally point. I've seen a 17 point losing streak turn into a win with the sudden help of an equal hot streak.

    Now some would think that the addition of a neutered Revenant would be pointless but the fact of the matter is that Revenants are a blast to drive in general, and the addition of a manipulatable turbo is the bee's knees. Though the massive cannon may be relatively painless, it still is as effective as a good shove before the finish line of race. You add the inability to shoot and thrust at the same time and you've got one skillfull ballbuster of a race.

    The map style - since the goal is non stop rally battle with no signs of slowing down.
    ie.
    - There are no respawns
    - You cannot spawn in a Revenant.
    - There is no going back to get a vehicle.
    - You cannot fall to your death - ever.

    This does unfortunately leave us having to stay with a more arena themed map style but I believe a little creativity could easily open that up.

    The awkward start- Due to the lack of a proper Revenant Rally gametype you will be spawning on a Mongoose. To make this feel slightly less out of place a short Mongoose sprint to the Revenants was added.

    The Rules:
    Don't be a Douche (for anything missed below
    Do not go through the one way shield without a Revenant (restart)
    Do not fire until through the shield (at the very least
    Do not constantly shoot at someone just because. (a few consecutive shots is fine)
    Do not shoot someone who is already out of the Revenant
    Do not shoot at an unoccupied Revenant

    As much as I like the map that I have created here I'm actually hoping that a few of FH's amazing race track forgers would be inspired to create thier own Revenant Rampage rally track. If you have been, and do build a track please put RR in front of your map name and tag the map on Bungie with RRampage.

    Here's an old Halo Map Raiders clip for those that want to see it in motion. I wish I had handfull of friends to play and some decent video editing skills like some of the other guys on Forgehub. :(
