    possibly the funnest gametype in firefight yet. this is the same as my multiplayer paintball game, but in firefight, it seems much more fun. and the firefight maps suit paintball very well.

    ATTRIBUTES
    in the rules of paintball, you must have a certain amount of paint on you to become eliminated and respawn. the same applies here. enemies die instantly, but so do you. You must keep on your toes and shoot them before they shoot you. You have unlimited lives, but its not about lives here, its about progressing and elminating other players.

    LOADOUTS

    plasma repeater
    plasma pistol
    2 plasma grenades
    sprint

    concussion rifle
    plasma rifle
    1 plasma grenade
    sprint

    plasma launcher
    plasma rifle
    2 plasma grenades
    evade

    fuel rod gun
    plasma pistol
    1 plasma grenade
    evade

    needler
    plasma pistol
    2 plasma grenades
    sprint

    those automatic weapons are good for groups at close range, but the plasma pistol and needler serve great for sniping foes far away.

    SUGGESTED MAPS
    here are my all-time favs. every map is fun but hey, why not have even more fun?

    1- Beachead- camp where you spawn in the pavilion. shoot em as they horde up the stairs and use the "roof" spawn area as a fallback. trust me: you'll need it

    2- Holdout- again, camp in the "store room" area where you spawn and watch the opening doors. you can also choose to spawn on the roof and can manage to snipe from there. be cautious though

    3- Waterfront- This area is fun because you can camp whereever you want basically. the best spots are the roof tops, house, and shed areas. You can also go around the outside of the map and take out the enemies inside

    4- Outpost- its only fun if you camp on the UNSC rooftop. they barrel up the stairs so use the plasma repeater and SPREADSHOT!

    5- Overlook- they can come in ANYWHERE if you camp inside the barn area, so shoot them before they come in and whatever you do: DONT GO OUTSIDE


    message me anytime before saturday and I will play this with you. it is sooooo fun

    Dude, I'm so glad you made this cause it's really really fun. It defiantly feels about as much as paint ball can get on Halo, with a little feel of Army of Two (if you have 2 people). I also really like how it looks like actual paint and not bullets, and how covenant die from the impact of a plasma grenade and not the explosion. Definite DL for me, I'm glad you made this.

    P.S. The DL link is broken.

    i removed it from my fileshare to make room for other things :( just set all wave types to elites and damage to both wave and base player traits to 300% and set damage resistense to 10% to both.

    Great Idea!

    Hey there P1MPxSLaSH, I enjoy this idea very much, and I know you have deleted off your fileshare, so I created my own variant which will be posted on my fileshare, the only thing I changed were the frag amounts, in paintball, I don't really think they use grenades, and if they did, there'd only be one, so I just decided, "Screw it!" and made it so there are no frags, both from the elites and spartans. But overall I can't wait to test my "our" new firefight mode out, I'll be back with my results.

    AFTER FIRST ROUND

    Paintball on Corvette

    Difficulty: Normal
    Total Time Elapsed: 16:59
    Highest Skull Combo: NO SKULLS ACTIVATED

    Players: Deaths Score
    Big 8lue 14 8345

    Comments: Great first run, most of the game worked well, but i found a couple of flaws:
    1. Some elites had needlers, and even at 300% damage, with 10% damage resistance, I could take one hit and survive.
    2. Some classes are over equipped authenticity wise, the power weapon classes are really not needed unless your being a newbie and just taking advantage of an asset so I don't know if I should take those classes out or not, because that somehow, for me anyway, took some of the fun out of the game. (Feedback would be appreciated)
    3. On Normal, this game type is very easy, even though I died 16 times, it was mostly to switch classes (or so I want you to believe :p), or because they caught me off guard.

    Final words: I will be making a pro variant of this as well, with cloud on, and only having a class with a plasma rifle and a plasma pistol, with your choice of sprint or evade, no grenades, 5 lives, heroic or legendary for nostalgic reasons. Any suggestions or CC would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the idea!

    Pro Variant results coming up soon.

    you can also use a lower damage percentage to both sides and have the loadouts be human weapons to create an airsoft gametype. you snipe with the shotgun its pretty awesome :D
