    A gametype made for my Star Wars Battlefront maps I will be making shortly. It's meant to play like Star Wars Battlefront 2 (I'm not sure exactly how it plays as I only have 3 friends currently). It is recommended for a full party.

    Loadouts:

    Sentry
    Primary: Assault Rifle
    Secondary: Magnum
    Grenades: 3 Frags
    Armor Ability: Sprint

    Demolitions
    Primary: Rocket Launcher
    Secondary: Magnum
    Grenades: None
    Armor Ability: None

    Sharpshooter
    Primary: Sniper Rifle
    Secondary: Magnum
    Grenades: None
    Armor Ability: None

    Medic
    Primary: Shotgun
    Secondary: Magnum
    Grenades: None
    Armor Ability: None

    Inflitrator
    Primary: Cuncussion Rifle
    Secondary: Magnum
    Grenades: 1 Frag
    Armor Ability: Jet Pack


    There are no sheilds and health does not recharge. You cannot pick up weapons or grenades (so choose your loadout carefully), assasinations are also disabled. Damage is at 110% and damage resistance is at 90%.

    I also have a gametype for space battles.

    Loadouts:

    Ranger
    Primary: Rocket Launcher
    Secondary: Assault Rifle
    Grenades: 2 Frags
    Armor Ability: Sprint

    Operator
    Primary: Magnum
    Secondary: None
    Grenades: 3 Each
    Armor Ability: Sprint

    Everything else is the same as the other gametype.

    I tried to make these as close as possible to the real game. I'm making Invasion gametypes for the campaign but those won't be done for a while as I have to make each loadout for each phase and both teams. Maps will be made shortly, there are other SWBF maps if you want to test it out on one of the actual maps.

    This is my first post about a map or gametype here on Forgehub so if I did anything wrong please tell me.

    Ok, I'll add you and we'll play it tonight. I would put up a video but it wouldn't accurately depict what gameplay is like because I only have 3 friends.

    Thanks, I'll add you sometime today.

    I tested this on a remake of Bespin Platforms, not the best map to test with only 4-5 people playing at a time.I was okay but it eventually turned into sniper warfare as the map was so huge. I'm interested to see if the same will happen with a bigger party.

    I still need quite a few people to test. If you'd like to just give me your gamertag.

    Haven't tested this yet, but just looking at your settings, I have a list of things that will likely need changing.

    -The rocket launcher in Battlefront isn't nearly as powerful as the one in Halo, so the Demolitions loadout should probably use a grenade launcher instead.

    -Normal guns in Battlefront were a bit harder to use. So even though the guns could kill very quickly, they usually didn't, so ya might wanna give your players some more health.

    -And the Sniper in Battlefront was very hard to use, whereas in a game of Halo with no shields, it would be ridiculously overpowered. Might wanna remove the sniper loadout entirely.

    I agree with the guy above me about the classes and health, though great job replicating the originals! I'll definitely be waiting for the maps to come out.

    Yes. The rockets could be a bit overpowered and overused.

    The sniper could be overpowered but it depends on the map, if you make maps that don't have long lines of sight or have lots of cover, it might work. Otherwise, maybe use a needle rifle or fusion beam instead.

    Can somebody do something about this? Like a mod or something? I'm pretty sure this is like a private message but he posted it in the Reach gametypes category. Next time Grunthunter, click on private messages next to your icon on the upper right corner.

    I agree with most of the people here, change rockets to grenade launchers and have a bit more health, but not full.
    Change sniper to focus rifle to prevent sniping battles.

    On the maps, use the special effects to imitate the rain on kamino, fire on mustafar, etc. Also have lots of health packs as well as turrets where needed. I could help you out if you sent me a friend request and a message telling me that you're the SWBF gametype guy.

    I think swapping rl with gl would be good.
    But the sniper should be swapped with DMR, not focus rifle.
    i could help test but i wont be online till the beginning of next month.

    Ok, I'm going to edit the gametype and get a test session going sometine either this month or early next month. I'll add anyon's gamertag to the list that's already posted in this thread saying they'd like to help test. I'll get a day and time out soon enough.
