    I just started this thread because I wanted to see who else likes Zombies with strange traits like vehicle operation, weapon pick-up, Guns, stuff like that.

    Depends on the gametype, normally I don't. I prefer old school zombies

    You mean zombies having strange traits? I haven't ever played anything that isn't a mini game that has non traditional traits, aside from grav hammer for Alpha zombies. Sounds like a cool forge idea actually... hmm.

    I'm talking about a competitive or casual infection games where Zombies will start with guns or drive vehicles after you. One example is my friend made a gametype for one of the Famous Stargate Levels where Zombies start with guns and can pickup guns. The humans have a twist as well, they have minor leech but no shield regen. It is quite fun and I'll try and post it when I get a chance.

    Yeah, I'm a big fan of that. Duel of the Fates is like that (pretty much not infection anymore).

    I thought Duel of the Fates was a great reenactment of the Phantom Menace Battle even though it is more like a minigame.

    i like having a zombies game where the zombies have grenades, that always makes it more even, and zombies aren't always complaining about having only a sword... oh and i hate zombies with hammers.

    I think Zombies with grenades is understandable but in CQB maps it becomes too easy to be infected and they have a sword anyways

    lol what makes me laugh, is having people invite me, and a little 9 year old is like: hey guys i wanna try out my new map... so you start playing, and its sandtrap, where all the humans are flying around in hornets, and the zombies only have a sword, and are fast, and are instant kill... lol... what possesses them to think that this is fair??? lol

    I sometimes feel like playing reverse-infection... I mean this gametype must have existed since the beginning of Halo 3 but if you don't know, it's where the Zombies are setup with Human traits (weapon start, gun pick-ups) and the Humans are set with Zombie traits (sword start, no pick-ups). This way the Zombies act as the Human exterminators to kill all of the Zombie infestation.

    Usually this is played with an Alpha Zombie with a BR or Carbine to give him a fighting chance with all the others afterward starting with pistols to encourage teamwork.

    That sound pretty cool, I'll to try it sometime. Usually whenever I want something like that I use only one life except this way the exterminators can respawn.
