    CHEATERS?! WHAT what should we do.... Shoot him down!!!
    Description:

    New Twist: Must have Game Variant MOW
    This infection game is played different than your average infection game throwing a brand new element into the game, the much unused equipment becomes your deadliest weapon against zombies. The zombies spawn in a room blocked off by teleporters that will KILL anybody who attempts to walk through. ​

    So how do the zombies get out??? Simple they must grab a lawnmower (vehicle) and charge through the opening to mow down some humans. ​

    P.S I didn't post pictures of walls but they are to big to get over even with grav lift​

    P.S.S.The room where the dodging zombies and stuff it's supposed to be somewhat random
    _____________________________________________________________ ___________
    Points:
    Points are scored by zombies for splattering any opponent which is worth one the Last man standing scores 5 but who cares for a point system you will not care if you win or lose with all the excitement of dodging vehicles flying, you will only want to play again.
    _____________________________________________________________ ___________
    Equipment:
    So where does the equipment come in well the zombies are invincible so you need to use equipment to stop them form getting a splatter for example someone may lay down a grav lift and watch the zombie fly overhead or a flare also the custom powerups play a big part they give the player extra speed and allow them to jump higher but they get a marker above there head. The rest is for you to learn, how to use the obstacles, and equipment on the map to effectivily avoid the Lawnmowers (A.K.A. vehicles) is a skill that comes from playing more.
    _____________________________________________________________ ___________​
    Gametype:
    The gametype is important why?? Well the gametype has certain things making it fun such as zombies invulnerable and can only kill by splatters (or assasination only if sombodys cheating because zombies move 50% and humans are slightly fast with high gravity they grab the custom powerup and they now can jump at normal height and run slightly faster but dont let your guard down you now have a marker on your head and zombies can still easily get you This gametype was made to be played like cat n mouse but different and i have tweaked it to involve equipment instead of mongooses. ~Also the map is supposed to look random but spawns of equipment have certain spawn times on them so that theres not to many flares but there are more of other things. The monument was inspired by Machhu Pichhu by Furious hope you don't mind~

    You probably took the thumbnail. Common mistake. Just double click the screenshot from bungie to save to desktop, then go to photobucket and upload, take the direct link and embed here

    "Points
    Points are scored by zombies for splattering any opponent which is worth one the Last man standing scores 5 but who cares for a point system you will not care if you win or lose with all the excitement of dodging vehicles flying, you will only want to play again. AGAIN the game variant is a must. do the points even matter?"

    In the last sentence you say it is a must, but the points dont matter....
    arent you kind of contradicting yourself?

    well even if they are two ways, all he would have to do is make them all a seperate channel and it wouldnt matter

    You stole Furious D's Machu Picchu temple. Why? It makes the map seem very random.

    Haha, this is very similar to my recently posted map. except on mine its only choppers

    anyways, its a nice idea, but the big area seems all too random. also, the teleporter wall won't really work. People can just jump over it and grav lifts will lift people out. I suggest making a larger wall there with boxes and have a man cannon to launch the zombies out. its a little more reliable. nice job for a first post though.

    Can zombies kill humans with the weapons on the vehicles? That would make it kinda dumb. If you made it so that they could splatter humans but couldn't kill them with vehicle weapons then i'd say this looks really fun, but if not then it only looks mediocre.

    No they can only kill with splatters they do 0% damage so they dont hurt humans if someone finds a way to cheat simply assasinate if they get on stuff like my friend shoot em down with gauss warthog and they will fall after that they dont last long
