    I just finished watching live free or die hard and the thought occurred to me, that could make a mini game out of it. The idea came to me when the bad guy says, "Why won't this son of a ***** just die" and I thought I should make a zombies game type where there is only one human who starts out with a magnum. The thing is that he would have a massive amount of health but no regeneration and the point is to try and kill him before the time limit is up. I just wanted to know FHs opinion before starting to make it and any suggestions that could make it better.

    This could actually become a pretty fun/very intense gametype. Just think of what the scenario here is guys, one man on top of a hill (what where he is, that doesn't matter) endless amounts of fast weak flesh eating zombies coming towards him. Huge health for human and maybe a friend or two. See who can last the longest and who can get the most points? That could be pretty fun although the maps would be very simple in design and probably pretty small but that could lead to some very interesting environments/cool architecture in these maps. Hmm, this may go somewhere. Just my thoughts.

    That was my thought as well although I'm wondering if any of you have ideas on how to prevent the human from being assassinated

    As long as the human keeps moving, and the human's movement is normal speed, I don't think assasinations would be too much of a problem. I would try out the game before worrying about that first. I would love to test play it with you if you want another player, just let me know.

    Currently this is just an idea but I guess you'd be right about the avoiding assassinations thing, I hadn't thought of that. I think I'll start working on it tommorrow and maybe put a preview of a map for it up but no promisses.

    Whoa, you jump on stuff quick don't you lol? We could try out the game first on some other map if you wanted too. But thats cool you're already thinking about making a map for it.

    Just curious about the zombie traits if you ever get a chance to put in more about the potential game type. It sounds like a good idea as long as the map turns out well.

    Meh, this sounds like the zombies would get bored and since the majority of players would be zombies it would probably be unpopular. I dunno maybe I'm missing something, but the life of anyone but the human in this game sounds like it would be repetitive.

    The assassinations will probably ruin the game idea. If you do get it cooking though, I can be a tester if you get a custom going.
