    Jousting, the medieval pastime of old. Also my state's official sport.

    Each team of red and blue get a Mongoose. ONe person drives, the other Jousts. If one of the Mongoose men die, then he is either replaced by a living teammate or stands there and takes it like a man.

    Teammates not in the game can trash talk the other team and stand on the sidelines, but NOT kill.

    Check it out, it is number 2 and 3 on my file share. Check out some my screenshots, too.

    I REALLY NEED BUNGIE PRO (THIS IS A LINK TO MY FILE SHARE)

    Here are some screenshots, actually.

    How does it work? I can't tell much from the screens.

    Do they use swords or something? Cause that could be very hard.

    i think you get a passenger on each mongoose holding a sword, and passenger swins and tries to kill other mongoose.

    I live in Maryland.

    The map looks... unnecessary. All you really need is a bunch of mongooses facing each other with VIP as the gametype: VIP vehicle usage: Passenger Base Player: All
    VIP starting weapon: sword with infinite ammo
    Base player: magnum or something crappy that isn't a plasma pistol
    Make the VIP health and armor unchanged (so a sword can kill)

    Well I tried the "bunch of Mongooses" idea, but it both defeats the purpose of the name Joust and doesn't work because eventually it turns into something like Rocket Race where everyone dismounts their Mongooses if they get flipped and just shoot/swing the crap out of everyone.

    Also, the VIP doesn't always die, sometimes the driver dies.

    And the Jousting does take some practice. You have to get the hang of when to time your swing to hit the Mongooses. If anyone wants to play this with me, let me know.

    In that case, make the VIP have normal shields and driver invulnerable.

    Pretty catch, though must say, it does'nt seem like a serious gametype that people would play to win, not for those competetive types you know? it would be fun if a few friends are messing around though

    Yea, it isn't meant to be competitive in anyway, just to be a fun thing for friends. It was a real big hit at my birthday party.

    hahaha. nice man. I had this idea a few days ago, wasn't sure how i was gonna do it, seeing as how u cant hold a radio antenna and all... glad to see someone got the Medieval sport concept down. I may do a futuristic floating version of it thats completely different down the road. But for now, this'll do, I'm definitely DLn for my LAN parties
